GeckoOS 106F.01 W/ Ocarina + GC

When will this be on the homebrew browser?

Not sure, the version on the browser claims to be this version but it doesn't work.

Yeah, I'm wondering, do Gamecube codes work now?

@wiiluver35 : do you have the same problem when you use 1.06F01 with no codes ?

let me check...brb

No, I believe they do not still (though I could be wrong) it can load Gamecube Japanese/PAL/NTSC games (depending on your console) like a Freeloader. :)

By the way, is it possible the next release ignores the Wii Error Message for the Action Replay disc, whenever I put in my disc, load it with GeckoOS + Ocarina it starts but says that the Gamecube disc or whatsoever can't be found, if you know what I mean..

Possible if this could get fixed in the next one?

@Nuke:
How did you fix the date/time issue (or should I say what was wrong: Did you have to manually access the date/time and set it or something like this)? I thought it was a HBC-Bug, was it not?
Is it fixed for future games too or just specific to those mentioned?

Furthermore, is there a way to set default options for the config menu like disabling Ocarina - not that it will be active anyway as I have no cheat codes but so it would not even have to search for them...

is that improve
GC Game Compatibility ?

Does that mean just running the console region-free?  I would guess that means Japanese 'cube games like Mr. Driller Drill Land or Donkey Konga won't be able to save/load properly then...anyone confirm if that's the case?

Just wondering if I'll still need to use AnyRegionChanger for my Mr. Driller needs after I get my Wii back from Nintendo.

What the heck are you talking about?

GCN Memory cards are, afaik, region-free so they most likely save any region's saves.

Hi:

I understand that ocarina is now included in the Gecko OS.  How do I use this feature and cheat codes as I read people writing about?

Also, where would I obtain these cheat codes?

Thanks

Alright seems like this new version is updated in the homebrew browser now.

Apparently you don't know about this.  Namco made some games like Mr. Driller Drill Land and Donkey Konga that actually check the region of the console they're running on; if it isn't Japanese they won't load the game save from the memory card.  Chipping a Gamecube with something like a XenoGC won't overcome this.  You actually need to make the game think you're on a Japanese system.

[Naraku2000]

Gay. didn't know about that.

Hur, I'm sure it's most unlikely to work, but you could test out setting the default language to japanese in the GeckoOS settings or stuff so the game PERHAPS thinks the console you're playing on is a Japanese one.

I'll give it a shot once my console gets sorted; if it works that would be sweet as I'm a bit gunshy of the AnyRegionChanger...
