Updates on the MNOLG Kolhii Ball Issue
JMMB has an update on the issue preventing progression in the MNOLG. From the BMP Forums:
“Some good news on this issue, it appears to no longer be present. I was trying today to find what Flash Player version was causing the issue, and noticed that today I was able to give Onewa the Kolhii ball and continue on. Perhaps it was a temporary problem with Flash Player. If anyone is still encountering the issue, try reloading the game after the point where it fails.”
If you have had trouble in the past, give it another go and let us know if it works!
Streaming Music v2.0.0
This has been a long time coming, and it’s been neglected for quite some time due to the sheer workload. However thanks to a little script I wrote this morning, about 10+ hours of work was condensed to two. As a result, I’m happy to report that streaming music has now been updated, complete with all the new additions to the 2.0.0 music archive! Even promo CD voiceovers and sound effects are now streamable, among many other new additions.
You can find it all on the music page.
Comic 2 English Scans
Vahkiti has been able to scan the English version of Bara Magna Saga Comic #2, and the scans are pretty good. Check it out on the comics page.
BIONICLE The Game Widescreen patches
After some work and research, I have uploaded some methods to patch the Gamecube, PS2 and Xbox versions of Bionicle The Game for native 16:9 aspect ratio on widescreen TVs. The PC version is currently unavailable, but hopefully some breakthroughs will come on that eventually.
A note: You will require either a modded Gamecube, Wii, Xbox, PS2 or Codebreaker on the latter to use these patches. Alternatively, the GC and PS2 patches can be replicated through Dolphin and PCSX2 respectively.
You can find the instructions on the games page.
BIONICLE 2: City of Legends (Xbox Beta) ISO Release
After over a year of waiting and negotiating with Andrew Borman of Past To Present Online, we have finally gotten a hold of the disk image for the City of Legends tech demo. For those unaware, City of Legends was to be a sequel to Bionicle The Game made by Argonaut Games. However during the development process, the company went under and the game was never officially announced or released until Mr. Borman found this tech demo on an Xbox dev unit.
A note: You will require a modded original Xbox to play this game. Instructions on how to mod your system are included in the download. You can find it on the CDs page.

Site Theme Updates
JMMB has just updated our main site theme. Changes include:
- Improved performance and responsivness, with all scripts being minified, and the clunky libraries replaced by custom code.
- CSS transitions for smooth, native animations (with jQuery fallback for IE < 10).
- Scrolling now feels completely native, with high-precision mice/trackpads no longer scrolling too fast (assuming modern browser).
- This update also makes way for new features that we’ll be adding soon.
Let us know if there are any issues.
