[tempo123]

Hi all, I have a softmodded wii all works fine but I have a game that require changing from 50Hz to 60Hz on the screen menu of wii setting....so can I do it? Any chance of bricking my wii by doing that? I have read of problems by reformatting a wii so I tend not to touch the wii settings but with this game is change to 60hz or not play at all....many thanks

Which game are you trying to play thats asking to change from 50Hz to 60Hz?

I don't know where you live and what Wii version you have but my Wii 4.3E screen setting is set to 50Hz and all my games play on that setting.

In USB Loader GX if you click on a game then click in Settings and Game Load you can change the video settings in Video Mode just keep clicking on the default Use Global until you see 60Hz then click save. It will play just that game at 60Hz.

Hi, thanks for the info keith, the game is called "the last story" or "the lost story" can't really remember because it is one of my wife.....it is quite large on size. Yes all the games works fine on my wii too it is only this one. I will try what you said about changing the settings with gxloader and I will reply back. Many thanks again

If that doesn't work you have another 2 options. 1 is to find the correct region iso for your wii as I'm assuming it is the wrong region game that is asking for the different format the other option is to use Digital Kaos - Downloads - wii iso region changer/renamer to change the region of the iso you have assuming you can find the correct region code (It's not difficult)

I have just tried what keith suggested and I selected force pal 60 and the game is fine now....it is call the last story and it is quite good, very detailed pictures and caracters.... I have the correct region game, it is only this game that require a 60Hz. many thanks

My The Last Story - PAL - SLSP01 works fine on 50Hz so I don't know why your doesn't?

[tempo123]

I don't know mate but mine switch back to wii menu if is on 50Hz, anyway many thanks for your advice it works!

Let me get this straight what have you changed to 50Hz to get this game working the Wii settings or the game settings?

Is yours a PAL version the same as mine or NTFS? If your not sure then open USB Loader GX and click on the 5th icon olong the top. As you scroll through the games the region will show above each game picture.

As I've said all my 221 games work on the default GX settings apart from MW3 which I have to change to IOS250 base 57.

Sorry for late reply, I just done what you suggested first, I load usb loader gx, choose the game and change the settings to force pal 60hz. I didn't touch the wii settings. So on wii settings I have 50Hz, on usb loader gx I have force pal60hz and everything is working fine. Sorry if I created confusion, many thanks

[Keithuk]

Well what bugs me is why you had to do that when I don't.

My The Last Story - PAL - SLSP01 works fine on 50Hz so I don't know why your doesn't?

Sorry I stand correct. I've just tried The Last Story again and you get a notice when it starts of it need 60Hz 480. I changed the game settings and it works ok on PAL60Hz.

so if i change the region to whatever i want to like for example global or something like that, then i just have to set the game to that setting and when i play the game i should experience the grey fuzzy picture

Welcome to DK.

You play any game at the default settings if the screen message say it needs 60Hz. You change the video mode to Force PAL60Hz in that games settings, that normally works. I had one game Project Zero 2 Wii Edition that said this but using Force PAL60Hz didn't correct it. I Googled this problem and only one site said use Force NTFC and that will cure it and it did.

So which game name and version is giving this grey fuzzy picture?
