I will give 500 hundred Goober dollars for anyone who can give a solution. Instead of making a extremely long post that's TL:DR. i will just show you what's wrong.

The tutorial i used was ALM5252's tutorial(wonderful dude. tried his best to help me out), which i have used in the past for me, but now all of a sudden that i got Project M working again.....

Anyways...the last thing in the log console mentions InfFace(random number).brres? Idk what the stock icons have to do with anything but...

I don't speak dolphin so.....

I've been playing multiple Project M builds for months without any problems. Now all a sudden (since january 2017) every build refuses to load in Dolphin anymore.when i try loading Project M, It either says, "No Codes Found" or "Too many codes Found" and loads regular Brawl. I have RSBE01 as main .iso, i even ripped out my old disc thinking the image was the problem, i created multiple Virtual SD cards sizes from 4GB-8GB, I've done changed the builds from ALM5252, Vanilla builds, my own custom-ish builds, The new Msanity one, PMnetplay.elf is what i use to launch and is right on top of RSBE01. i tried even tried "skip EFB Access From CPU is checked" nothing. here's the info that i know. I would appreciate if someone knew what is going on.

Dolphin Version: 4.0-7180
Brawl MD5 Checksum: d18726e6dfdc8bdbdad540b561051087
Processor: Intel Core i5 4690k
Graphics: Nvidia Geforce GTX 960 4GB GDDR5
Memory: 16GB DDR3

Project M screen before failure (updated) i seem to be getting closer...

here's something i really dont understand why it's happening but..whenever i use BCSM to make my custom BRSTM's for any .mp3 file that i chose to convert...once i convert it..and play it to test it..it plays a strange melody that dont even sound close to the desired BGM i converted. it happens on my the new laptop i purchased and makes me wonder what makes this tune play? it makes testing and creating BRSTM's very difficult for me.


aaand now i have a new strange problem. as a additional problem to this..now when i chose a file it forever decodes the left channel

After 6 months of research and learning stuff for this...i still suck at hacking brawl.

However i achieved the following:

Installed HBC (Difficulty: )
Installed Gecko (Difficulty )

Tried to get Gecko to Hack Brawl (FAILED)

said F***k this Installed Riivolution (difficulty: )

Completed Learning and Installed textures for Characters (Difficulty: )

Completed Learning and Installed Custom BGM (Difficulty: )

Installed Stages (Not completed Learning)  (Difficulty )

Hacked All Songs (Difficulty )

what i did not achieve is and still have problems with:

Hacked All stages (65% Completed)

Imported PSA's (2% Completed)

Hacked All Characters (75% Completed,due to not getting PSA's to work)

things i have learned:

CSS editing

Strap Editing

Brstm Editing

Things i have came to as conclusion:

Im retarted when it comes to PSA's.. i put the PSA's in the fighter folder (.PAC's) along with fitmotions for the 1st time Result= When character fights on screen..insta freeze.

2nd method, i put the fitmotion files in moveset folder. Retried,they did not freeze,however they do not work.

Ichigo (Metalknight), Naruto (Game and watch), and Mewtwo (lucario) just stand there with T formats. However my Goku (captain Falcon) is playable,but still broke. any B button activites turns him into T formation untill hit by another player. Final smash is a Giant T formation,with a flash of light..then 3 seconds later, everyone dies LOL....so what the [censored] im doing wrong here? someone please tell me my idiotic mistake that haunts me v_v

another Problem is the current stages:

Pitchochat,New Pork City, Port town Areo Drive, and WarioWare.

ive concludes so far....THESE STAGES ARE UNHACKABLE!!!!!!!!!

1st of all my wii disc tray is retarded..i have to open and exit riivolution channel 10-80 times just to get it to read smash bros. so when i do finally get it to work im like YES!!!...Then i click one of these stages and rage face everything v_v

Pitchchat,Port Town and WareWare, no matter what stage i put these bastards on...INSTA FREEZE!

i have a feeling i know my mistake...or not...idk......(Yes..i add the .rel files for the hacked stage i want)

in my module folder, i have every .rel file for everystage...hacked or not...theres a rel file for it..not sure if  that contributes to anything...but another thing for New Pork CIty..no matter what stage i choose for it...its just a dark mess of New Pork original..all i see is 3 things...the pendulum platform thingy..the breakaway platform..and that Pink little Nightmare..everything else is dark. serious annoying problem.

and finally the dumbest thing i could ever ask anyone here...

i just learned how to hack images and stuff in Common 5.pac, i even made my own epic stage icons and CSS for characters..my dumb question is...WHERE DO I PUT COMMON 5!??? for gecko its private/wii/app/rsbe/pf/system.....BUT I NO USE GECKO!! ive searched everywhere  and connot find any results. i keep getting gecko results when i...use...riivolution.

someone please tell me where to put common 3 and 5 in riivolution and someone yell some sense into meh about PSA's...cuz i fail everytime...and does anyone has a clue why these stages are unhackable?

Ultra Thanks is granted for those who help.

Previously i had troubles with Gecko OS due to the fact i had a 8GB SD Card. I got lucky on it once and never worked again. so a bunch of you guys told me to get riivolution. I Installed it...i had troubles at 1st but two weeks later, Riivolution started working. I now have Custom Characters,Music and some stages

my problems are:

Loading Riivolution
when i load up riivoultion 9/10 it will tell me to insert disc. even tho a disc is in there. after trying 2-1000 times it finally works. i was wondering if this is a riivolution or my wii problem

Character movesets (PSA)
I cant get these to work. i wanted fierce diety link and Naruto in brawl but when i use them..2 seconds later the game freezes. i put them in their fighter spot (X:/brawlmods/custom1/fighter/link) and i can see fierce diety link 100% working untill 2 seconds it just hard freezes. same for nauruto over game and watch

Stages
75% of my stages work. at 1st i couldnt get ANY to work untill i realized the rel files needed to be put in module. but now stages like Distant Planet's Torvus Bog, anything i put for Port town,mushroomy kindom and any konohav stages i find along with Pictochat stages and Tabuu's stage for pirate ship all freezes. And Onett's Mob town and anything for summit dont show up. i really wish mob town worked because i have a lot of Mafia,mob and Fancy character skins.


someone please help 

this is getting very annoying. i got this to work before now it wont work again. i have all the folders set up right i got RSBE.gct in the codes folder with the file patch code on there. i turned on cheats on gecko and i still get this message..on top of that i have to press launch game repeatetly just to get it to load my CD.  someone please help. i was able to play one match on my hacks. once i thot it worked i turned off the wii. next day it forever says Error SD File patch not found.

ok so after SOOOOOO Many years... i finally found a brawl iso non-torrent (Still Currently Downloading). and i was playing around with Dolphin an noticed this feature.



so i dump all of the my pf items here?

Dolphin/user/load/textures/RSBE01/pf? or

Dolphin/user/load/textures/RSBE01/then all the folders?

Im a little confused about this and also do i still need Gecko/Wiivolution or dolphin has that built in?

Please help...

it looks like i found my calling here

i seem to be very exellent at making custom songs for brawl. ive created 20 tracks since Sunday and they all are pretty good.

i will continue to make more starting with the following games:

Metal Gear Solid (1,2,3,4,ect)

Killer Instinct (SNES versions and Killer cuts)

Banjo-tooie/Donkey Kong 64

Hip hop Instrumentals

anything requested

sounds like a pretty good job for me. so if you need a request of a song, either PM me or reply to this topic. go ahead, i wanna challenge myself to see if i am an expert at custom brawl track making

ok time to summerize before i ask to make sure so far im doing everything right. Please if im doing something wrong or missing something TELL ME!

to hack brawl one must:

1.install Homebrew Menu [Not done yet/plan to do the tradiational way and use brawl to install it with stage creator]

2. Put Gecko in SD:/apps (i also put it in the root of SD)

3. Insert brawl's Gci code into SD:/codes

4. Created a root of SD:/private/wii/app/RSBE/pf/fighter (also added stage,item,module and sound)

5.downloaded a ton of stuff and save them in a folder on PC

6. created a folder for every single fighter and put skins for them in there.

7. eat cookies and wait to get a copy of brawl.

now when i get the disc again, i will have to insert sd card into wii,load up brawl and go to stage creator where the installer make homebrew appear. then once complete i go to homebrew channel and find gecko. once there the magic happens?

if im correct so far then id link to actuall get on with my questions.

i noticed some ppl have custom images for their characters. by random guess i think CSI means "Character select image".  how exactly do i do that

i noticed that people have imported videos as their brawls opening as thp's. im not sure what that is but my question is can i make my import a video i have and just converted to thp somehow? or do i need that confusing brawl box that i dont understand quite yet?


rels are used to make me put stages whereever i want right?

and my final question is the items.im doing a rain check and seeing if got this right. so far all i did was created a folder called item in pf and sticked all my items in there,but some items are coming with Common 5's and 3's. what do i do with those?
