Naxil, when you get your file back into GCM format, use fstfix available here:
http://www.gc-forever.com/forums/viewto ... 5517#p5517 with the option to rebuild the iso.

PLEASE ANY PEOPLE CAN DOIT A HOST DIRECTORY WITH ALREADY SVN COMPILED DOL????
tnx very much!!!

@emukidid the command is FSTFIX f??? for rebuild?? is important to a 32k alignment??

dude, calm down

In the list of Compatibility said that Pikmin 2 is running at 100% but when you start the game freezes in one the primervideo of start up and is unable to start the game therefore does not work will be that you must have a special configuration that i am not explained how it is said in the list that works, it should be in red.

If the game has no audio streaming, which means that not even the audio streaming bit is set, then i use fstfix with no options. For games with audio streams, i use the 32K alignment option. Both should work fine with all methods to load games and the games are shrunk a bit. The 32K alignment option is overkill, so the filesize is bigger than it should be, but that should not matter.

Anyways, it's important that you do NOT use any kind of shrinker after using fstfix.

Tnx .. but i have this problem wiipower.. some games (naruto4,Onepiece,4sword):
I select games on swiss after i press A swiss not show me a Banner of game and after i press A again (for start games) wii go in DSI error.
I use your swissbooter v3 and i load the swiss.dol from SDfront (sd gecko is in slot B).
What u think about that error? is a problem of SD read? (i talk about sd inside the gecko)...
Is the same start swiss from Sdfront or sdgecko??
can u help me?

Hmm, letting fstfix rebuild a full size .iso might be worth a try, but it sounds like:
- A Wii specific problem(unlikely, other people would have had the same)
- A corrupt/damaged .iso(does it work in Dolphin or some other method to play the .iso?)
- A problem with your sd card

It should not matter what you use in the Swiss Booter. But how your formatted your card might matter, as well as how fast it is. Did you try 16Mhz and 32Mhz mode?

Tnx wiipower:
1 yes i use the 16Mhz or 32MHz option.. i have WINDWAKER m6 (works fine in italian!! GOOD!).
Wind waker run Just with 16MHZ. (in 32mhz not go over APPLOADER image 100% or freeze on blankscreen BUT never go to DSI error).
Other games i can RUN properly is ANIMAL CROSSING (17mb shrunked n zipped). Animal crossing run PERFECT to 16MHZ n 32mhz.
Now i suppose that: if two games run properly (ANIMALCROSSING RUN TO 32MHZ) My SD is compatible or not? is possible i have try a DAMAGED BACKUP???)....
Is a problem now found UNSCRUBBED iso.. GC games is now LIKE a OTHER rom FILES for EMULATOR... tnx WIIPOWER!!!!
I have buy a original games n run properly on my wii..

If i remember correctly, then Wind Waker works for me in 32MHz mode, just with sound glitches. So it could be indeed a sd card problem, but i'm no Swiss expert.

About 32MHz, which adapter are you using for it? With the SD Media Launcher adapter, only 16MHz works for me (32MHz freezes the game immediately).

Is it safe to pick up a fake SD Gecko, or do we need a more expensive original: link? Or maybe building a custom: link? Thanks.

Also Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 works in the newer revisions! Only the background music isn't working, and it suffers from lockups, which always occur in the crucial moments .

@pr0ton: I have no idea of the mediaLauncher but i think it's pretty much the same as sd-gecko, gecko-clone and homemades...
You need an SD-Card that supports 32MHz :/

they're all the same. maybe 32mhz works better if there is better conductivity between the pins and the slot, I'm not entirely sure. I've used cheap-ass dealextreme adapters and they work fine (apart from the fact that if you bump the card it's over cause it moves out of alignment) - but only on some.

nice tip emu , i was considering getting some of them or more of the 1 already have thats another type .......now its confirmed to avoid dealextreme ones thanks for that info.

100% not true, dealextreme's adapters work perfectly fine!

yes, most do, I've had a few though where you touch the card and it loses connection with the contacts (slot is too side and the SD card has room to move).

yep i second that, i have one of these too...but normally you don't touch the sd card while using it, so it's all good. otherwise if you by accident dodge it..

I accidentally touch it cause my controller cord hangs down as I play close to the Gamecube, or if I'm using it on my portable, same thing again though, controller cable.

yeah i can see that, i have one of my cubes on my desks so i'm close to it with my computer mouse

tape is your friend...

a few layers inside bottom of SD housing will help the connections get nice and snug.
no more issues

Woah, didn't know there's a new version...
Thanks! Will try tonight.

Proton, I bought two of those off of Dealextreme, and they work great.

32MHz working with the SDML . It was indeed the SD-card, 2 out of the 3 cards are working 32MHZ and I only tried the highest aligment with the non-32MHZ working Sandisk III 4GB (older one) .

However, it doesn't fix crippled audio or the 1-sec lockups in THPS4 for me.

Pikmin 2 sub level 5 freezes up in the letters all goes well gotten this that starts the sublevel 5 and freezes any solution in that regard?

hi everybody!
I'm looking for a good Tuto to use swiss r94.
What do I do with the files:
- swiss 0.2 r94.gcm
- swiss-lz.dol
- swiss-unpacked.dol

Can someone let me know exactly what I have to had on my SD card (in wii) and on my SD card (in SD Gecko)?
I can launch GameCube isos on DVD with Wiigator but I really like to manage to launch isos with SD Gecko.

Thanks in advance!!
