Changelog:
0.3 gamma
- Optimised speed
- Higher compatibilty

Note: This version is faster, but some videos will play a little bit too slow. This also depends on the quality of your DVD media.

0.3 beta
- Cinematic now working properly
- Wi-Fi Enabled
- Faster Load time
- Drive speed is still 3x. It is so fast that some testers believed it is running at 6x.
- Supports non-patched and patched Wii games (The correct term for "patched" is "decrypted")
- Not all games will work, but as of now most do.

Some parts are modification of free available source code, and are unsupported and not condoned by the original authors of it. The backup loader modification is solely the work of WiiGator.
Thanks to Waninkoko for the speed optimisation.
Thanks to WiiShizzza for the graphic.
Thanks to all testers.

---------------------
F.A.Q.s
---------------------

Q. What does it do?
A. Play Wii backups on your non-modded Wii.

Q. Do all games work?
A. This is only a beta version. Not all games will work, but as of now most do.

Q: Where do I get support for it?
A: I do this in my free time. So you need to search in the internet for forums like http://gbatemp.net.

Q: Where do I get an update?
A: You will get updates at my blog: http://gbatemp.net/?act=module&module=...member=WiiGator

Q: When will it support ... and when will be released?
A: I do this in my free time, so I don't know.

Q: How do I start a game from the disc channel?
A: You need to start Backup Launcher and press button "B" (See <a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/DGU52_ttd9o&rel=0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/v/DGU52_ttd9o&rel=0</a>). The NAND flash is not changed for this feature. The support works until you go back to the Wii System Menu or reset the Wii. The feature may not work, if you have Starfall installed.

Q: Should I install an update from a game backup?
A: No. This is untested and by default disabled.

Q: I started a game from the disc channel and then I go back to the Wii System Menu. Why I can't start the next game from the disc channel?
A: Backup Launcher need to be started again to launch the next game.

Q. What does patched games means and do I need it?
A. This was used in the first version. The game application was decrypted. It is not needed anymore. 1:1 backups have higher compatibility than patched games.

Q. How do I run it?
A. Seems you don't know anything about homebrew yet:
- You need to install http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/Homebrew_Channel.
- You will need http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/Twilight_Hack and the game "The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess" to install the channel.
- Create the directory apps in the root of your SD card.
- Copy Backup_Launcher and cIOS_Installer to the directory apps.
- Put the SD card into the front SD slot of your Wii.
- Then run the homebrew channel.
- First install cIOS and then run Backup Launcher.

Q. I can't install cIOS, I keep getting an error. How do I fix this?
A. You need to downgrade your Wii. I suggest not to uninstall IOS249 until you are sure that you have downgraded your Wii.

Q. Do I need the new cIOS to play games?
A. Yes.

Q. Does Wi-Fi work?
A. Yes, some games have been tested and they work. Though we're not sure if all of them work. Newer games which use IOS37 seems to be slow.

Q. I have a problem, will you fix it?
A. Post it in the Backup Launcher thread and beta testers or someone can help you.

Q. Can I be a beta tester?
A. You have already something what you can test.

Q. Will this brick my Wii?
A. There is a slim chance that it will. I have installed the cIOS countless times with no problems. But just make sure you follow the onscreen instructions. It is possible that someone puts malicious software on a game disc. I suggest to run only games which are correctly signed by Nintendo! You can check this for example by running extractpartition. Don't install updates from a burned game disc of a different region, this was already reported to brick your Wii, when using a hardware modchip. Note: The Wii System Menu is not changed in the flash, so launching from disc channel should be safe.

Q. My game doesn't start. What should I do?
A1. The loader isn't perfect. It will probably be fixed in the next update.
A2. Try to launch it directly from Backup Launcher (First menu entry, Button "A").
A3. Try to launch it using the disc channel (Button "B").
A4. Check if IOS is correctly installed. The used IOS version is shown in the bottom right corner and should be IOS249. If IOS249 is not displayed, you need to install the cIOS.
A5. Try to change the hook type in the configuration.

Q. Does it load GameCube backups?
A. No. GameCube backups are shown in the disc channel, but can't be started (just reboot).

Q. Does it play old games like Twilight Princess and Red Steel?
A. Twilight Princess is working, Red Steel is not working. Some old games are not working.

Q. Do I need dvdx?
A. No. Just ignore it and forget that it could be in anyway related to this program.

Q. There is a online or disc update available from Nintendo, should I update it?
A. NEVER MAKE ANY UPDATE FROM NINTENDO!!! This can make the backup launcher unusable. There are better ways to do this. If you make an update, you may not be able to install this.

Q. Where does cIOS install?
A. It installs on the NAND flash of your Wii. It uses IOS249 v7.

Q. Is this easy to uninstall if I decide I dont want it?
A. Yes - most of the install files can be removed with the WAD manager - the rest just delete off the SD card.

Q. I'm getting an error with : DVD Read Error when I try to run a game - why ?
A. This is a burn media issue - don't use DVD REWRITABLES and try a different disc/drive/burn speed. You need to change the book type of DVD+R.

Q. I'm getting an error with (game graphic): Disc eject and RTFM - why ?
A. Eject the disc and insert it again. This is a burn media issue - dont use DVD REWRITABLES and try a different disc/drive/burn speed. You need to change the book type of DVD+R.

Q. I don't have Wi-Fi, how can I install it?
A1. You need to download the following files with your computer:
http://nus.cdn.shop.wii.com/ccs/download/0...000024/tmd.1042
http://nus.cdn.shop.wii.com/ccs/download/0...0100000024/cetk

Create the directory /00000001/00000024/v1042/ in the root of your SD card. Copy all downloaded files to this folder and put the SD card in the front SD slot.

A2. When you have a second Wii with Wi-Fi, you can run the cIOS installer there with a SD card inserted. The software will copy the required files to the SD card while installation.


Q. Why is Super Smash Bros. Brawl is not working?
A. Dual layer DVDs are not supported in this release. You need to shrink it Obtain a DVD5 of it.

Q. My patched/decrypted game is not starting with the disc channel - Why?
A. Patched/decrypted games are not support by the disc channel, because there are some parts of the disc removed.

Waninkoko has released the latest Custom IOS36 Wii custom firmware, bumping it up to rev 7. Most of the changes involve improvements to the DIP plugin, though he didn't go into specifics. Here's the version history changelog since rev 5:

[ CIOS36 rev 07 ]:

  * DIP plugin updated (lots of improvements).

[ CIOS36 rev 06 ]:

  * Custom DIP module removed.
  * DIP module patched (DIP plugin) to support backups.

Meanwhile, waninkoko's also rolled out MenuPatcher v1.0, which goes hand in hand with cIOS36 rev 7 (it's actually required that you have rev 7 installed, before you can run MenuPatcher properly). What it does is to patch over the system menu in memory to make it run with cIOS36. Make sure you go thorugh the readme files included in the download archives.

AUTO BOOT BACKUP LOADER This modified build will now automatically boot directly into the game,!Hold '1' for config menu (its no longer 'B' because the menu rebooter function uses that button)

Keep a lookout for the first alpha release of cSM.

-Forsaekn



Same deal as last time, updated for gamma.
See post here (for the old version) http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=111932 for original 0.3b autoboot.

This modified build will now automatically boot directly into the game, unless you are holding '1' down on either the wiimote during launch. This will enter the configuration menu where you can change Language, Force TV Signal type, change Hooktype, enable Ocarina, etc.
Usage: Hold '1' during launch to enter boot configuration menu.
NOTE THIS CHANGE

Changes from 0.3b:
- Button to enter configuration changed
- Full menu is displayed
- Autoboots ~3 seconds quicker

KEEP THE ART FROM THE ORIGINAL CHANNEL WITH AUTO BOOT LOADER:

The archives include the dol, modified sourcecode, and a Channel WAD created by me. (Banner image was created by shadowmoses and altered by djtaz, Icon images and sound by myself)
NOTE: make sure you still install the CIOS before using the backup launcher, or it will not work regardless of where you run it from.

Enjoy!

[VettaCossX-AlphA]

QUICK PATCH TO FIX A FEW THINGS JUST INSTALL THIS WAD FILE courtesy of Arm the Homeless!:

Download GammaWad Patch
http://ratm.net63.net/ciosrev7.wad

They play games EXACTLY the same (exact same DIP plugin) only Waninkoko's has more patches.

You could call WiiGator's the Lite version, as it only has the DIP plugin.

[Ultimate_Eggman]

Vetta what that wad file above do ?? is it an update for the loader/cios ? and is it safe got me paranoid now lol...Does it replace Wii gators Cios used with his loader ?.

[Mr_Nick666]

This thread looks like it needs a post with a nice cleanup and some simple instructions! 

[VettaCossX-AlphA]

then do it up nick...I am just posting the info as i get it....trying to answer any question you guys have...feel free to edit the post and do a clean up bro! BTW add me to your MSN i only added eggy shizzy la and dej so far

@ eggy...(that wad is for people who cannot install CIOS via the internet it installs a more full version of CIOS as well...Waninkoko's new CIOS....That is what it does...YOU DONT NEED IT IF YOU HAVE GAMMA RUNNING here is the quote:

They play games EXACTLY the same (exact same DIP plugin) only Waninkoko's has more patches.

You could call WiiGator's the Lite version, as it only has the DIP plugin.

Wii gators Cios is a "light" version of waninkoko's as always..YOU DO NOT NEED TO INSTALL THIS IF YOU HAVE RAN THE CIOS INSTALL THAT COMES WITH THE GAMMA LOADER...THIS WAD IS FOR PEOPE WHO HAVE NOT GOT A WIFI CONNECTION WITH THERE Wii ORTHE ooooo.app folder in there root....IF YOU DIDNT UNDERSTAND THAT THEN LEAVE THIS WAD ALONE......LIKE I HAVE SAID BEFORE IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT IT DOES....CHANCES ARE YOU DONT NEED TO INSTALL IT....( now that said...you can install this OVER TOP of wiigators so if you HAVE ran wiigators CIOS install IT IS SAFE to install over it using waninkoko's wad cios install...just install the attached wad with wad manager ...thats all.....

[phillyrider807]

Ok im having some trouble getting this working. I have my wii modded. I only used it for ocarnia codes on brawl.

My wii is at 3.2u

I tried to install the cios thing and it said error. What am i doing wrong? Do i need to uninstall anything? Any help will be appericated!!

[Harris590]

Thanks vetta! got my animal crossing patch copy working how do I get this into a channel though?

[VettaCossX-AlphA]

Thanks vetta! got my animal crossing patch copy working Azn how do I get this into a channel though?

@ harris
.(much like boosters devhook this will allow you to launch a backup From the actual disc channel)

.When you are done setting your config menu in backup loader gamma you hit the B button a few times and your wii will reset....wait about 30 seconds and you will notice that the game will show up in the "disc channel" just like a normal wii game would! When CSM is releases we wont Need to even launch the backup loader in some cases (though you will need it untill the dip mudule is 100% perfect) to run games that require forced region and the like but who knows a "auto detect region" feature could prob be made after enough is known about the compatibility of the loader IN ITS FINISHED state....

@ phillyrider807

Ok im having some trouble getting this working. I have my wii modded. I only used it for ocarnia codes on brawl.

My wii is at 3.2u

I tried to install the cios thing and it said error. What am i doing wrong? Do i need to uninstall anything? Any help will be appericated!!

if you only use it for ocarina codes and have a mod chip then JUST USE GECKO OS http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Gecko_OS

But When running CIOS install --->make sure your Wii is ONLINE <---- (using wifi or the usb ethernet connector) and then run the installer it grabs the files needed from the internet...also you can install waninkoko's newest CIOS by running wad manager and installing ciosrev7.wad the wad is attached to a few post here that is really all you need to install to run gamma is that wad...it IS the new cios by waninkoko...

If you do not HAVE a way to get online with your wii (I would just install the ciosrev7.wad file with wad manager) but a third way is also known... follow these steps

Q. I don't have Wi-Fi, how can I install it?
A1. You need to download the following files with your computer:

Create the directory /00000001/00000024/v1042/ in the root of your SD card. Copy all downloaded files to this folder and put the SD card in the front SD slot.

A2. When you have a second Wii with Wi-Fi, you can run the cIOS installer there with a SD card inserted. The software will copy the required files to the SD card while installation.

Q. How do I run it?
A. Seems you don't know anything about homebrew yet:
- You need to install http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/Homebrew_Channel.
- You will need http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/Twilight_Hack and the game "The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess" to install the channel.
- Create the directory apps in the root of your SD card.
- Copy Backup_Launcher and cIOS_Installer to the directory apps.
- Put the SD card into the front SD slot of your Wii.
- Then run the homebrew channel.
- First install cIOS and then run Backup Launcher.

[Mr_Nick666]

I would tidy it up but there are files everywhere and its such chaos I dont know what relevent and whats not! 

[Ultimate_Eggman]

Yeah agreed Nick also channel wads should be clearly named ie Autobooting & Manual Loader or summat to that effect thread has become very fragmented.
