riivo possible yet?

Nope.

[Sammi Husky]

Nope.

Thats not true, and PW already posted saying why. Just because nobody has gotten it to work doesn't mean it cant people are just doing somethin wrong

And last time I checked, people got as far as the CSS. The only thing was that there were no characters there

We'll get there soon enough, guys.

Even though I do absolutely nothing here :V

I was able to get a clone slot to appear but it was Mario and hovering over the icon froze the game. But I reload it with gecko and its a clone. So Idk.

I actually got one character loaded and working on riivo before I realized I had to switch over. It was totally by accident too. It was the Monster Hunter over Olimar hack (Though I put it on Ike instead). If anyone wants to give it a look, maybe that might lead to something.

I've been away for SOOOO long.

Ok, here I come with some things:
I tested every single gametype and...

1. Brawl: Duh, this is the main thing.
2. Training Mode: Just like Brawl.
3. Classic Mode: The lack of stock icons made the game freeze, so ATM I can't try that one.
4. Homerun Contest: Untested.
5. Boss Battles: Works perfectly, but I always die. XD
6. All Star Mode: Works perfectly, until the very last point where you finish it. If you play All-Star mode with BrawlEx clones, rage quit once you beat Olimar (the last of them).
7. Event Match froze when I entered, IDK why. It should work for others because I believe that glitch was fixed.
8. The Subspace Emissary works, but the CSS of there is glitched.
9. Tourney and Rotation do not work at all.
10. Multi-Man Brawl: I still don't trust this. If you get some kills with any BrawlEx Clone, IDK where will the Record go.
11. Break the Targets: Haven't tested, but SHOULD work.

This is what I got when testing BrawlEx in other modes.

Whenever I'm able to get Stock Icons, I'll test Classic Mode.

if i rmember
the guy was using the expansion css without pw's special sc_selcharacter
so that is why there were no characters in the css

Followed the tutorial, installed the IOS36 wad file necessary for Gecko OS, but now it's telling me "no DVD found" and refuses to load the ISO image. WTF?

Brawl set as default ISO in Dolphin, SD.raw properly configure, all the file/folder hierarchy is properly configured as well, the hook type too. Nothing, nada, zilch. The ISO simply refuses to load with GeckoOS.

[Sammi Husky]

Make sure your settings match the ones in the video exactly. Like sd cheats being set to on and that everything else except AXnextFrame and game language is set to "no"

Also, what file are you using to launch gecko? the boot.dol or boot.elf? And what version of dolphin are you using?

Using Dolphin 4.0 x64-1302, so not 4.0 vanilla but a GIT revision. Using boot.elf as seen in the video, all files are named exactly to the settings to match the new slot's name (in this case, KrystalEX to go over FitPeach and so on). Brawl EX files are all named to 3F at the end.

Gecko OS loads perfectly fine, it's just it's not finding the ISO even when it's set as default, this is what's confusing me.  Do I need to use a vanilla/non-GIT revision of Dolphin ( as in 4.0)?

Using Gecko 1.9.3.1, there's no language option called "no" but "default". Do I need to set SD File Patch to "yes"?

Edit: Nope, using 4.0 vanilla makes no difference. All the hex changes were made exactly how they were in the video too, files named properly, as are folders, I'm so confused.  Anyways, it's late where I am, so I'll try it again; I can't expect to see success if I don't fail every now and then  

Maybe having someone look at the files could help as well?

So, an odd problem arose for me after adding slot 57 to the game. After I had done so, problems with slot 45 arose that cause the 07, 08, 09 costume slots to freeze the game when the character appears(In Training mode as soon as "Ready" hits the screen). Any ideas what's causing this? It's not the movelist or costumes because when I move them around to other costume slots they function normally.

Could the error be happening because of the many mods I've made to the files in the extracted ISO (instead of using File Patch Code, I simply replace and recompile the ISO image)?

Edit: Nope, ISO isn't at fault, I definitely messed up and need to re-follow the tutorial. No biggie!

That is a possibility. In modifying my ISO to have as many music files as possible(to save space on my SD prior to learning about the SDHC fix) it corrupted so the system can't recognize a specific song and I can't open the music settings to fix it. Prior to that, my original modified ISO exhibited weird freezes due to the mods I made to it, and I didn't even modify those things before.
