GCOS on Wiinja - Region Free GC Mode :)

edit: changed title as it should work on both mods.

GCOS Special Version for Wiinja Modchip

What's it do?:
Boots all region Gamecube games (original or legal backups)
Explore ISO9660 discs up to 4.7gb(?) and launch DOL/ELF

How to:
Insert this disc into your Wiinja'd Wii and boot it.
Eject it and put in your favourite GC game and boot!

Requirements:
Wii
Wiinja
GC Game

Websites:
www.gamecubeos.com
www.wiinja.com

Tested by Wiinja owner, so it does work.

Source included but to get it working I wrote a pre-loader which i'm not going to post here due to it being a bit hard to work and all i would get is non-stop questions. Basically, the GPL'd code is all here for peeps to modify later on etc if they discover anything new.

sweet, thanx

Heho emu!

Is there possibly a chance to get the Wii Region Free in Wii-Backups?

Nope, not even going to bother trying.

Mhh.. well.. In the Gamecube mode where you start the GC-Homebrew (GCOS) it's not possible to start the special functions of the Wii, right? That should be the only problem, shouldn't be?

Hey Guys, Just Wonderin Are We Burnin These GCOS Onto A Mini-dvd? Or Standard DVD? Extracted it's 1.4gb so just wondered

You can Burn GCOS on a normal-sized DVD. It should be no problem. Its the same as the gc backups. They were also only 1,4gb big and were able to get working on the gamecube.

I dont understand, why does this code could not be build inside the modchip?

Yeh maybe i'll burn both, i like the lil disks better and put it in a case be sweet for the loader thanks bud

is possible load it with SD launcher?

The Wiinja just sends data to the Wii's DVD-ROM. It tells the drive that it has already checked the copy protection. So the Wii's DVD-ROM skips the copy protection parts of its code and loads up the game.

The Wiinja can not communicate with other parts of the Wii, so it can not run code stored on itself.

No, it's not. You can run homebrew but not backups

I have a question, we currentley dont know if the winja has an audio-fix for the few gamecube games that need it but signs point to no would it be possiple to do something simmalar to this that can correct this?

Looks like things will have to be stream fixed if the mod doesn't support it, but I think GCOS can work it out.

Does this bootdisk works with XenoGC? Or with CicloWiz?
Thanks Emukid for your great work!!!!!
