neogamma R7 IOS249 (REV 14) ghostbusters it won't load past the screen where it tells you to put your wrist strap on wii remote, remote lights flash console un-responsive, anyone any ideas followed the most recent guide on here al my other games work.
thanks in advance
Does Ghostbusters work?
-> Yes, but it seems to only work on some Wiis and not others (some
get blackscreen). This seems to be a problem with the Wii's
settings (like preloader hacks, video mode, region, etc), and
seems unrelated to IOS.
Ghostbusters gives a black screen! What do I do?
-> Try to experiment with enabling and disabling preloader hacks,
especially if the hack's name has the words "region", "game"
and/or "disc". Maybe even try changing your Wii's video mode from
NTSC to PAL, and vice versa. Make sure the iso you're using hasn't
had a patch video mode, or been patched to use an IOS other than
IOS53, or been patched at all. Make sure it's not a bad dump, etc.
The video Mode on the scene release seems to be stuffed up.
Maybe treat it as an import game, load it through Gecko OS,
forcing the video setting to whatever your Wii's isnt.
If It still gives a black screen, then I don't know what to do.
Maybe there's a setting you missed and didn't change.
Ghostbusters freezes at the Wrist Strap Health & Safety Screen!
What do I do?
-> According to WiiPower, this seems to be a problem with the Scene
Release, which could be a bad dump. There is a "disc eject trick"
that I found on gbatemp (can't remember who posted it, though.
@Whoever discovered this, credits to you.) I have reworded it into
steps:
1. Make sure the nunchuk is connected before starting
2. Insert disc
3. Banner should load up in disc channel
4. Hit Start (but be ready to hit eject)
5. You should see the screen flicker for a second, when this
happens, HIT EJECT IMMEDIATELY!
6. It should say "Please Insert Disc blah blah blah", just wait a
few seconds, then insert the disc.
7. The game should load fine from that point.
This might have to be tried a few times, and will need practice
to master.
These games freeze at the heath screen for some users, mostly for
people using discs and that only get 3x reading speed. There's no
real solution for this problem yet. Some people get it to work by
pressing certain buttons with the correct timing. And many people
report that they get the game to load by pressing eject with the
correct timing, and reinserting the disc when they are asked for.
The correct timing seems to be as soon as the screen flashes white
for the health screen. And a 3rd solution that is reported to work
is to remove the sd card. It seems these problems are caused by
faulty releases, many people reported that a self created
backup works flawlessly, while the 3 burns before have this issue.
Maybe this problem is caused by scrubbing the game."
Comment from dmm:
"Fixing Ghostbusters compatibility really pissed us off.
I mean REALLY. I'm assuming it pissed off the testers aswell.
It took 4 fixes to make it work. Animal Crossing Wii worked with
the first fix we made for it.
If I ever see a ghost, I am going to personally bust the
damn thing myself!"
