Hey all, after the loading screen on sam and max the screen goes black and stays that way

If i use gecko os and force the region to pal 50, it loads to the title screen, but then when you select and episode it reboots the wii.

Any ideas? Im using a jap wii that has been changed to usa with anyregionchanger and has ios34 4.15

thank you

The game reboots at this spot when launched with a backup loader. Do you get this reboot on episode selection with an original? Please provide more infos, i really want to fix this reboot, but i don't know why it reboots.

That's what i'm trying to find out. It seem that modchip users and softmodders are in the same boat when it comes to this game. I think your best chance would be to test if you get the game with SoftChip running. You need to set SoftChip to use IOS33, as this is the IOS the game would run when it's loaded from the disc channel. Don't worry, SoftChip is one of the backup launchers, but it does a great job for other users too and you don't need to install any cIOS to get it working.

Great, but i guess that doesnt solve anything if it doesnt run on softchip either lol.

So let me get this right, softchip is like gecko os?

Yes, but in this specifc case maybe better. Just try the game with SoftChip set to IOS33, if there's is any way to run the game for you without some kind of hacking, this is it.

same problems

Thank you for testing, i will let you know if i come up with a solution. I think it's very similar to the 002 error as softmodders and modchip users have the same issue (again).

The 002 error is the copyprotection introduced in Need for Speed Undercover. You only need to use Gecko OS with 002 fix or SoftChip to get trid of it.
