Hi! Newbie here :D

When I try to play some games like Monster Hunter Tri, Red Steel 2, or Fragile Dreams on my Wii(4.2u softmodded) the cutscenes and movies are so laggy and I can't enjoy may gameplay time if you know what I mean.

I play my backups on DVD loading and not from storage devices (I can't afford 'em and I prefer DVD backups :D)

I use the latest neogamma version and some backup loaders with cIOS38rev17(i think)

I burn my backups on imgburn with the lowest possible write speed and the verifying after burning completes successfully.

Do I need to update IOS files or something? Please help!

EDIT:

I did some searching again...
(sorry..i searched before i posted this thread but no luck. i only found out just a while ago)
...and I found out that softmods only run games on 3x the speed and originals run at 6x so maybe that's the 'cause of the slowness and lags. Am I right about this? Sorry I'm a noob.

But doesn't the Wii recognize it as an Original and not a backed-up DVD disk because it was also burned on a disk. What's so special about an "Original Wii" Disk that the Wii recognizes only THAT and run it at full speed?

This is a common issue with softmod DVD backup loading. They read the disc at 3X speed instead of the normal 6x speed (as for why, it is just a limitation that softmod disc loaders have).

You will need to use a USB loader and HDD if you want to avoid the lag.

Thanks for the reply!

I thought it also applies to USB loading as well....'guess I'm wrong then.

Maybe I'll try to save up for an external HDD then but it may take a while though.

Thanks again!
