Re: GameCube 2 Concept

Getting back to the original topic... I like the idea, bad name aside. I like PC-in-a-GC for a name if someone actually wanted to hack something like this together. I agree that it would be hard to fit everything in there. Even if you did, heat would be an issue I'm sure. You could fit a Raspberry P...

Re: Game on SD Media launcher SD card won't load

Just a follow-up to my last. It appears that I actually have to go into settings and set 16 MHz instead of 32. I also noticed that Mario Sunshine works much better with SD load than Swiss, specifically the cutscenes. What could the reason be for that?

Re: SDML, Swiss, DOL-101 not working

Sorry, another stupid question. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that you can't use iso's that have been stripped down. Is that correct? I can't find anything that says that you can.

Re: Game on SD Media launcher SD card won't load

I had the same issue as you. I was able to get Swiss working by selecting "compatible" for speed when loading my SD card.

Re: SDML, Swiss, DOL-101 not working

Okay so I guess I'm stupid. I noticed that someone else just posted about his issues that were the same as mine. I tried SD boot and it worked. For some reason it even read my SDHC card but it failed to see it using 32 mhz so it bumped down to 16 and worked. This prompted me to try the slower speed ...

Re: SDML, Swiss, DOL-101 not working

Sorry I forgot to answer your questions. I have tried from both slots. I just tried a dvdr in the wii and the DVD won't mount. I can see the sdhc card contents just fine on the gamecube. The only issue is that I have to swap the ports when I swap to the sdhc card for it to refresh, otherwise it does...

Re: SDML, Swiss, DOL-101 not working

I went the SDML route because it looked like the easiest. I couldn't find a source for the modchips or drive replacements. I initially didn't want to open my gamecube up to adjust the laser pot. I also don't think that I have any mini dvd-r's around so I'll have to find some good ones. I guess I cou...

Re: SDML, Swiss, DOL-101 not working

I'm still troubleshooting this. Just an update... I loaded up swiss 251 on my Wii and I get the same results when trying to launch the game from the SD Gecko that came with the SDML. I'm copying the iso to a hard drive where I have my wii backups to try to remove the gecko from the equation.

Re: SDML, Swiss, DOL-101 not working

Thanks for the reply emu_kidid. I gave the newest build (251) a try. I had no luck. I'm using the SD adapter that came with the SDML. I'm testing with Pikmin 2 but I get the same result from any number of games. I know I've read bad things about the quality of the SD adapter that comes with the SDML...

Re: SDML, Swiss, DOL-101 not working

I haven't tried to manipulate the isos at all. I essentially just put the 1.5 gig .iso file on the card. How would I compress it? Is it as simple as zipping or ".7z"'ing it? I also just tried the most recent 251 build with a brand new formatted SD and SDHC card without luck. I tried every ...

SDML, Swiss, DOL-101 not working

I've scoured everywhere for an answer and tried almost everything I came across but I still can't get backups running. Here's what I do: 1. Boot Gamecube with the SDML boot disk 2. Run Swiss from an SD card in the SD Gecko 3. Swap the SD card for an SDHC card and browse to the games 4. Try to launch...
