Gecko Region Free - Region Free Gaming on Wii Via Homebrew App

does it work with backups

[JKKDARK]

Yes, it does.

[Sairou]

Yes, it does.

Do backups work without mod-chips?

i think the next version should support GC games, then work on compatability, atleast then its an all in one freeloader, maybe SSBB doesnt work because its duel layer

Unfortunately it's a no-go from me. My PAL Wii fails to boot the NTSC version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl via this software. It recognises the disc and then promptly presents me with a black screen. I usually use 480p but I've tried all of the other video modes just in case, still no luck. I'll have to stick with my Freeloader for the time being.

If Nuke is reading this; keep up the great work it's much appreciated! All us hard done by Europeans could do with a homebrew hero to help us with our region woes.

since brawl isnt out in the PAL region and you need to update to play brawl (USA), that might be why it isnt loading for you. try to update to the latest firmware and try again. if that doesnt work, then i dont know.

too bad, SSBB is the only NTSC game i own (i have a PAL wii) crap.. it gets quite annoying to insert freeloader first and then SSBB, but this could be good if he will make an update where it supports DL-games..
this app is surely a break-through in the scene and i hope more is coming..

so you are saying this homebrew freeloader doesnt load dual layered games?

Also, anybody try it on an NTSC Wii and works other than me? =P Wondering about backups on non-modchipped wii though still. =]

[linkinworm]

some backups work, but only with a modchip

it's my guess, i'm not going to try this until it does support DL games, as SSBB is my only game that's NTSC so why should i try it when the other guy already tried it and i didn't work for him, so why should it work for me?

and i already have the datel freeloader, but this would be perfect so we don't have to buy it, and probably N will release a patch so the datael one won't work, and the i can just boot the homebrew channel and load this, that's awesome, the best homebrew so far imho..

EDIT: i have done the update, but only for DL media, i inserted freeloader, ejected it and inserted it again, and then ejected it and inserted SSBB, so it would accept the Dual-Layer update only, not the channels, so i don't have dual channels
thanks to the guy who told me that here on dcemu, can't remember who, but thanks!
