Soft-Mod Tutorial: How to play backups with only SD Media Launcher + Extra Info

yeah probably if you want.

 

alright now this is ridiculous. liero has your sdl shipped yet? I mean damn, it ain't like this is the wii we ordered. This product is what, a couple yrs old. On top of that, its from Datel from whom is supposed to be a disliked and not #1 on my top 5 list of companies who make products that are unsupported by the host company consoles. how long does it normally take for things to restock?

 

Na, man... my order hasn't been shipped yet. Even after taking with a rep through Tech Support, they don't have any idea when it'll be re-stocked. But I do know that it will be restocked and that I can cancel my order at anytime. :/ I'd rather just wait and see than not order anything if ya feel me... it's still a sucky situation.

 

is there something wrong with codejunkies.com? I think either the server is down or they are upgrading something.

 

yeah, hopefully its just an update... Datel's home website is down too.

 

im worried that it got shutted down and i just ordered my sd media loader(bad idea since people said they havent got them since 1 week+ on this fourm)but anyways would this drive be good for burning gamecube games?


or suggest me to some that are good i dont want to spend over $40

 

so technally you can play multi disk games(ex.resident evil 0) on gcos 1.x or can you put it on a multidisc on gcos 2.5 final and where can i find gcos 1.x?is it the beta?

 

YEAH!!! GOOD NEWS! I contacted sales again, and it turns out they just got more stock in... my media launcher (with no SD card) shows that it is scheduled to be shipped out today!

So for whoever else is waiting for theirs, you should be getting soon too.

 

you for real?thank god...i thought i bought it at a bad time when none was stock

 

that's great! but how long did you stay on the line and what time did you call? Everytime I call them I'm on the line for more than like 15 mins. hey liero can you check the status of your order to see if it shipped yet? The way I ordered it I can't check mine.

 

Well, I contacted them through e-mail (sales@codejunkies.com), and they said that my order has been shipped today... and on my account at codejunkies it does say that it's shipped (they even gave me a tracking number at USPS).

 

of course! i should have thought of that! i'll go see if they'll give me a tracking # if i tell them my order #.

EDIT: wait i did do that except i put @dateldesign.com! i didn't see the codejunkies 1.

 

If you look here -- http://www.datel.co.uk/contact.asp -- you'll see their e-mails for both the US & UK companies... i e-mailed both and got the same answer.

 

hell yea they did ship it its now billing adress receved then they gonna ship it WOOOHHHHH CANT WAIT!!!!!oh yea they do include a tracking number via ups

 

yeah, man, i totally can't wait. XD

 

ok guys i know you are all happy and stuff (hell im a little happy myself XD) but, we still got many things to do before we can use it. Such as grabbing some sd cards and some mini-dvds. Well I have tons 1 gb sd cards lying around the house that were used for cameras that I could use. I don't know about you guys but as usual for me, the disc media that everyone says is the best is never sold in any of my local retail stores which means I gotta go for the 2nd best which they usually have.

EDIT: Time out. It just occurred to me. If I have to (and I most likely will) adjust the pot, won't that void the warranty seeing as I have to open the cube to do it?

 

I already have like a 256MB SD card that'll hopefully work but SD cards nowadays go pretty cheap on eBay... and for adjusting the pot yeah, the warrenty will be screwed. But I've seen Gamecubes go on eBay for as cheap as $30. And I'm already expecting to grab a gamebit off the net (amazon/eBay).

But for pot adjusting, I don't think it'll be that hard. I've seen youtube videos of dissembly/assembly off the gamecube, and I even found a great "repair guide" off of http://gctracker.mine.nu:800/. It's a .exe file (no virus, I've scanned it) and I've uploaded it to my website for y'all.

Gamecube Repair Guide

 

the only thing i prob wouldn't be able to grab is the multimeter. i think if anything i'll just turn it a bit. i'm really not good and deathly afraid with anything that requires opening the console (I mean for my ps2 i have swap magic for my bro's ds, i got the r4, and for my psp slim i have the pandora battery set) and I wish I knew someone who knows how who is willing to do it for me but unfortunately i'm the only one who cares about the cube where i live. every1 else is ps2, 360, and ps3. If someone didn't mind comin to richmond, va i'd ask. that's another thing, ppl in this city are not tech savy @ all, at least in the part of the county i live in. Man...since this pot adjustment is required I guess i'm screwed huh?

 

Dont worry...lol i know what mini dvd's im getting if you go to frys.com and find the EXACT same box of mini dvd's(fuji),the one this guy(the tutorial guy)has then you can order them but if you dont want to take risk,ill get them first get results then tell you,if not then tell me if you want to give you the link to the mini dvd's

oh only one thing to worry......the dvd burner look at the post i made on top with a URL and go to it.People(from another fourm i think maxconsole) say its one heck of a good burner for gamecube games on good price $60 retail-$30-40$ bucks there

 

OMG thank you thank you sooooooo much dude its freaking good explanation thanks better then other tutorials and such
again THAAAANNNNKSSS!!
