Riivolution Guide
This forum is lacking in a guide for Riivolution, so here yah go.
Table of Contents
1. The Setup 1.1 Using Brawl+, Brawl-, BBrawl, Project M, etc.
1.2 The Riivolution Channel
2. Using Ocarina Codes3. F.A.Q4. Things to Note-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The Setup(Note: This is uneeded if your loading BBrawl, Brawl+, Brawl -, etc.) Setting up Riivolution is fairly easy. First, download Riivolution (http://rvlution.net/riivolution.zip) and extract the apps folder to the root of the SD Card, or merge it if you have other apps. Then create another folder in the root of your SD card and name it Riivolution. Next, download this .xml (http://rvlution.net/riivolution/images/5/5c/SSBBfiles.xml) and put it in the Riivolution folder. Riivolution uses .xml's to tell it where the files it needs patch are and what there are called. There are a few .xml's, but the one I provided is one that uses the same directories and file names as the File Patch Code, only the files that save with an _en at the end need the _en. Now, make a folder, name it config, and put this .xml (http://www.mediafire.com/?439nsv0p2qpdecp) in it. You should be all set up for loading all you files for Riivolution.
1.1 Using Brawl+, Brawl-, BBrawl, Project M, etc. To load mods like Brawl+, download this .xml (http://www.mediafire.com/?jrnjkjiiklv), place it in Riivolution folder and name it modlauncher.xml and dowload codehandler.bin (http://smashmods.com/downloads/brawlplus/codehandler.bin) and place it in the Riivolution folder as well. Now, this .xml does not have File Patch Code support, so the files go in a different location. You can also toggle between Brawl+, Brawl-, and Project M.
File Locations
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
1.2 The Riivolution Channel When your at the screen for Riivolution, you'll notice an install button. Basically, what this will do is install a channel to launch Riivolution.
2. Using Ocarina Codes(Unneeded if loading Brawl+, Brawl-, BBrawl, Project M, etc.) Ocarina codes are sometimes necessary for loading things like a CSS. But loading Ocarina codes, you need a separate .xml for it. Just download codehandler.bin (download above) and ocarina.xml (http://www.mediafire.com/?jzdvgtytimy), shove 'em in the Riivolution folder in the apps folder and the Riivolution folder in the root, put your RSBE01.gct in the codes folder like normal, and there, your codes are loaded.
NOTE: Do NOT use the File Patch Code when using Riivolution!3. F.A.QQ. Why won't it let me save replays or snapshots to my SD Card?
A. Riivolution ends up locking the SD Card to load the files. For a solution to the snapshot problem, just take the snapshot, save it to your Wii, start up brawl normally, and copy the snapshot to your SD card.
Q. Does Riivolution work with Back-Up's?
A. No it does not.
4. Things to Note
- There's no file size limit on any file to my knowledge, so go crazy.
- When using Riivolution, .pac files that overpower another when using the FPC are reversed and, in my experience, cause freezing. To fix this, just put the file that is overpowered in the overpowering file (i.e replacing your custom sc_selmap.pac with the one in common5_en.pac)
(Credit to Midnite for some of the downloads and the info on the whole Brawl Mod thing in his guide. Never used stuff like Brawl+ :P.)
To add to all of this, when using the File Patch Code, you had to remove the _en part of file names before using them.
When using Riivolution, the _en part has to be added to certain files; Ex.: FitCaptain01, FitPokeTrainerFinal##, etc.. Of course, you can set up your XML document in a way so that even if the file lacks the _en, it would still be recognized.
The spoiler below contains an example XML document that I did up while doing some tests with Riivolution.Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

From what I dug up, you need to import that file into common5.pac in order to get it to work with Riivolution.

Right click, Save As. I think the thing is that .xml files can only open in Internet Explorer and since most of use here use Chrome or Firefox, we can't see them when we click the link.
MY Firefox opens xml files just fine. It tells you if there's an error in the tags, just like Internet Explorer does.
Oh. Maybe I'm just stupid :P.

I assume your using a mod like Brawl+? I'm pretty sure they go there. I've never used a mod like Brawl+ so I'm not 100% sure.

You can always reference my example XML document (http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=11743.msg172926#msg172926) that I did up on an earlier post. You basically need to have an active hook in order for the Ocarina codes to work.

Is there an arrow up near the top of the screen? In this general area?
(http://i1009.photobucket.com/albums/af220/ToonJDub/riivolutionthing.png)
(Disregard this being Dead Space Extraction. Just found this pic of the internet.)
If there is, click it and you'll see something regarding ocarina. You'll have these options like V1Hook and stuff. I use V1Hook and it works fine :P.
Yeah that's what I have it on, and it is enabled. I don't know what the problem is. Am I supposed to fill in anything in the xml?
No, you don't. Come to think of it, are you using a mod like Brawl+ or just applying your own stuff.

Where did you place codehandler.bin? It has to be placed in the directory that your XML document will read it in. This goes double for RSBE01.gct.
Well there's my problem. It's the GCT that happens to be misplaced.
I assumed that was the problem.
Quote from: ToonJDub on August 02, 2010, 12:32:18 AM
I assumed that was the problem.
Apparently not. I placed the GCT in the directory and I'm still getting nothing.
Well first off I need to know if your using a mod like Brawl+ or not.
Nope. I'm just using standard Brawl.
Ok, where are you putting the codes?
In the Riivolution file along with the codehandler, Orcania.xml, and Brawl.xml files.
:>.>palm: I seriously forgot to include this in the guide? *goes to edit guide*
Ok, now I know what the problem is. You were putting your codes in the wrong place. They just go in the codes folder like normal.
Um...that's where I had them before.
Great guide you got here, Toon. I would use Riivo for it's ability to replace more files than the FP code, but it doesn't support backups. A shame, really.

You may be like me and have to but the RSBE01.gct in x:data/gecko/codes/. I don't know why it's like that for me, but you may have the same problem.
Yeah that's probably the problem. So I should just create a new folder like that from scracth or is there somewhere that has the file for download (I don't have an X drive if that's a requirement).
Lol, X is just a place holder. It just takes the place of the sd card slot. For instance, mine is the F drive. Someone else may have it their E drive. But yes you should just make the new folders from scratch if they aren't already there.
Ah okay. :P Yeah I expected as much. Anyway, I'll give this a try.
I have a problem when i download textures they won't come on riivolution
Where are you putting them?
in the x:/private/wii/app/rsbe/pf/fighter/(characters name)
EDIT: sorry met to put pf
There supposed to go in x:/private/wii/app/rsbe/pf/fighter/(character name).

I'm sorry, but you're being very vague. When you say it loads do you mean the game loads without the code or the code loads.

Ah, ok. Are you using a mod like Brawl+ or Brawl-?
no
Is it just textures or is everything not loading.
I'm only trying to get textures to work
Where did you put the .xml?
in x:/riivolution
Are you using any codes? If so, which ones?
no
Do you have the .xml you're supposed to put in config?
yup
What textures are you trying to use and what did you name them?
TidusV2.pac
Ooooooooooooooooooh! Ok. You've been naming the file wrong. Here's a guide on what you need to name them. (http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=6.0) I should also note that you need a .pcs as well if you want to see the texture in single player.
k tnk ill tell u if it doesn't work
edit: what are .pcs
the texture didn't come up
When I load riivolution it loads ssbb like normal but after that there is no options or anything.
I have a folder on my sd called riivolution with codehandler modlauncher and ssbbfiles inside.
I have the stage I want to load in brawlmods then vbrawl then stage the stage is called STGBUDOKAI.PAC
It needs to be named STGFINAL.pac and it goes over Final Destination.

PCS files are basically compressed PAC files. They're used to start matches. After that, the PAC files are used.

Ok, put the codehandler.bin and the ocarina.xml in the Riivolution folder in the root as well. That should fix it. The place I learned about how to use Riivolution, it never specified which Riivolution folder to put them in, so I put them in both, but I forgot to put them in the guide :P. But yeah, that should fix the problem.

Did you maybe put the File Patch Code on by mistake? I've done that sometimes out of habit.
I noticed file setup was not in this guide so let me do so.
Basic setup- First in the root of your SD card you need to make a folder named Brawlmods. Once you've done that go into that folder and make a folder for whichever brawl verison you want: Bbrawl (balanced brawl), Brawlplus, Brawlminus, vbrawl (regular brawl with codes), Custom1, and Custom2. Then place your fighters folder in whichever brawl folder you created. Example for brawl- characters Brawlminus>fighter>character folders. Your .gct file goes in whichever Brawl version you wish to play. Example RSBE01.gct for Balanced Brawl goes in the balanced brawl folder.
Music- goes as follows. brawlmods>Music>Strm>Brstm files here. That's all there is for music.
Stages- I haven't figured out how to get individual stages for each version of brawl so you'll just have to use the same stages for each version. The files go as follows: Brawlmods>stages>Stage files here.
I'll have to get Midnite to help me with the rest which includes Menu, info, and those sort of files.

Ya 4 times. Just because brawl- and Brawl+ are in the menu doesn't mean you can play the games. You have to have the files for the games in the SD card. Otherwise it doesn't work. I've tried so I know what I'm talking about. Don't argue it won't help you.

To load mods like Brawl+, download this .xml (http://www.mediafire.com/?jrnjkjiiklv), place it in Riivolution folder and name it modlauncher.xml and dowload codehandler.bin (http://smashmods.com/downloads/brawlplus/codehandler.bin) and place it in the Riivolution folder as well. Now, this .xml does not have File Patch Code support, so the files go in a different location. You can also toggle between Brawl+, Brawl-, and Project M.
File Locations
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
Don't talk like you're big s**t. I bet you think you're bad *ss just because you can hack and it's the internet. No one is bad ass.
2) You need the files in your SD card so you can play Brawl+ and the others. Riivolution can't read what you don't have. You have to have both. You need the modlauncher and the files for the Brawl hacks in you SD card. You can't have one without the other. I don't take well to smart *sses. Ban me if you want to but I stand where I stand.
-_- Yes, I get that. But what you're completely ignoring is the fact I have where the file go in the guide. There was no point in you posting where files go.
If you're wondering why I got so mad it's because I feel like i'm being talked down to. On top of that you had the nerve to insist that I give you repsect when you gave me none. Lol I just found where you posted where the files go :af:. But next time don't be so mean when correcting someone otherwise crap like this happens
The file locations are in the spoiler box under "File Locations" in "1.1 Using Brawl+, Brawl-, BBrawl, Project M, etc.".
I know I just found them :P sorry I didn't see them. But I do have some useful info that can go with that list. If you want each individual file to be able to load it's individual characters put your folders in this order Brawlmods> Xbrawl>fighters>character folders. Most guides don't have that so when you put folders like this Brawlmods>fighter>character folder. It overrides every other fighter folder you may have.
Are there any other applications that will load custom songs, characters (not textures), and stages into Brawl besides Riivolution or Gecko OS? For some reason my wiimote always disconnects from the console when I start the Homebrew Channel and wont reconnect, so I need an application that supports the Gamecube Controller.
The Hombrew Channel supports the Gamecube controller, but you have to use the D-Pad, not the analog stick.
I know that you can navigate the HBC with the Gamecube controller, but I'm talking about the applications. Riivolution and Gecko OS only support the Wiimote. I can't operate them with the Gamecube Controller, I've tried.
Hmmm... I can't really help you there. I can navigate it just fine with a gamecube controller. Sorry.
You could always do some ISO patching, but I don't really know enough about that to tell you how to do it. Ask in the help section, someone in bound to know.
could some one send me a link to the flamming blue csp in a common 5 file. and music and sfx wont work on my wii could some one please help me
For replacing character textures I can just copy and paste my textures into the correct folders right? Is there any renaming involved?
yo i need someone's help ok first of all, i followed the instructions of where to put the stuff for riivolution inside of brawlmods and so far everything works except for the character selection screen the stage selection screen and the mode i have that allows u to change to the second texture of that stage using the a and y buttons. So i need everyone to please help me find out how to make these things work on riivolution, because second, i downgraded my riivolution to 1.02 to see if ocarina would help make it work but whenever i enable it on riiivolution it just freezes the game no matter what version of riivolution i have so i need someone to tell me what i need to do to make those things work using riivolution, hnestly i dont care about making ocarina work on riivolution unless thats the only way to make those things work then i also need someones help to find out how to see the codes on riivolution and how to make ocarina work. PLEASE HELP SOMEONE :'( IM GOING INSANE!!!

I'm not using a Brawl Mod. I have ocarina.xml, modlauncher.xml, SSBBtemplates.xml, SSBBfiles.xml, codehandler.bin and RSBE.xml in each of the folders listed above. Not even the Hooks or Arrows are showing up. It's just blank. I'll upload my Riivolution folder files next I get access to my friend's laptop/computer.
Help?

@ToonJ- When I'm using Riivolution(I had to start over with the Riivolution folder)
I got your all your XMLs in both
[X]>Riivolution[Here]
[X]>Riivolution>Config[Here]
[X]>Apps>Riivolution[Here]

I think you only need to use one XML document for when the Brawl ISO is inserted into the Wii. You can merge patches from different XML files into one XML file. Refer to my example XML document for a reference.

Also, make sure that the formatting of your XML document is correct, as even one mistake will cause the file to not be read by Riivolution.
Thanks. I renamed your XML to RSBE.xml
Now, just ASF1nk's CSS is jumbled up. But I'll fix the codes around soon. But I must say that the "hooks" option isn't showing. Do I still need it even though the textures/PSAs work?

It depends. If you want to use the unrestricted camera, then you would have to activate your codes. However, you do need to get hold of codehandler.bin before doing that.
Yeah, I have a codehandler.bin in my Riivolution folder.
The CSS is still jumbled no matter what codes. Also, on the "< Ocarina Codes >" whenever I put it on "Enabled" it just loads a black screen. Here's everything on my SD Card since I had to start over:
Codes:

Riivolution:

Your XML: http://www.mediafire.com/?eqj8pk4q8j9v90r

Problem: Ocarina Codes when Enabled goes to a black screen when I click "Launch". Same with "AxNextFrame Hook". I took out the File Patch Code from the RSBE01.gct.
If I can get the codes working my CSS won't be jumbled. So how do I get my RSBE01.gct not make it go to a black screen. Please help.
I've been having some problems with this method of file patching recently. Namely, the CSS. I have common5_en.pac in the correct folders and all, but it still won't load. The same goes for my .rel files. In Gecko they worked fine, but now the game just crashes when I try to load levels that use 'em.
Nice Guide. But one question: are you talking as if starting with an empty SD or with a file path on it?

Mostly with file patch on. The way I setup the guide was so people could seamlessly flow back and forth between Gecko and Riivolution. However, you could do this with an empty SD Card.
Thanks! Also how could I start this direct with Smash Stack? I do not have a hacked Wii so I use the Nonpermanant method.
Edit: Is the first XML a bad link? I don't get it.
That I'm not sure of. I personally never used, so I wouldn't know. However, if you know how to do it with Gecko, the same thing probably applies here as well.
Thanks again. And whats with the first xml?
You need to right click and "Save As..." for that one.
Thanks A LOAD.
CodeHandler should be placed as a .zip right?
No, you need to open the .zip
Okay But inside there seems to be another zip inside
Edit: I tried but inside is a GPZ(?)
Riivolution works just fine for me, but for some reason it won't load asf1nk's css or sss. I have both in common5_en.pac and I put that in X>brawlmods>custom1>system but they won't load. Same goes for common3_en.pac
Using ShadowSnakes SSB4 Riivolution Loader btw.
where do i put the "brawlmods" folder?( im a noob to this stuff :P)
The sd root
Quote from: The Corrupted one on December 06, 2010, 04:01:34 AM
The sd root
ok i did that but when i load a mod like brawl+ its just regular brawl,im sure i have all the brawl+ files downloaded
EDIT: ok no problem, but what do i put in the mod folders?(brawl+,brawl-,bbrawl, ect.)
In brawlmods name a file brawl+ and place Rsbeo1 and the fighter folder within.
where does common5.pac go inside of the brawlmods folder?
Dunno if you figured it out Xaro but here's what I got workin' fer me.
X:Brawlmods/textures/system/common5
BTW thanks for this guide. Really. I ran into a few walls but It seems to be working fine for now. Quick question though, is anyone experiencing any freezing issues?
Is this still the only way to do SFX hacks? :\
I just want Japanese voices for some of the characters...

Actually, I think there is a File Patch Code 4.1.Something, but it's incredibly glitchy, so Riivolution is the preferred method for SFX hacking.
Or I guess you could ISO hack...

No thank you...
Although
actually, my Wii's disc motor died and I've been playing games off a USB stick instead, and that'd be much easier than burning a new disc...
Hmmmmm...

That could work, though you will need to convert your Brawl ISO into a .iso file first. You better have some vacant space on your hard drive, since a dual-layered ISO uses 7.92 GB when uncompressed. And of course, the hard drive's file system has to be NTFS; FAT and FAT32 won't work, due to the 4 GB limit for files.
Already done, as that's how I currently play Brawl. It'd just be a matter of editing said ISO and replacing a file :O
so wait... do i need the gct in x:/brawlmods/vbrawl/rsbe01.gct or will riivolution work without the gct altogether cuz i dont like the gct codes
Codes go in X:/Codes/RSBE01.gct just like they would if you were using Gecko OS. However, Riivolution works fine without codes.
thanks
Quick question: For the file patch code xml.file and the other file that is suppose to go in it i just open it with notepad copy that then put it in SSBBfiles.XML? that will make the file patch code to work?
W8 so your saying you need 2 of each file of codehandler, and orcarina? one in the riivo root folder and the other in the riivo app folder?
no. just in the riivo app folder.
Quote from: Nameless on April 18, 2011, 02:04:41 AM
no. just in the riivo app folder.
but if you read the guide, it says to stick them in the riivo folder in your app folder, and the riivo folder in your root. :srs: "shove 'em in the Riivolution folder in the apps folder and the Riivolution folder in the root"
I don't know, it works for me.
Also if you'd read the guide it says that he doesn't know which to put it in, so he says put it in both. :P
Double post, does this work with PAL? I can't seem to get any codes working D=
riivolution sux, It wont load for me, codelist or not
OMG I cannot believe that I even managed to do this. :yay: This is my ABSOLUTE first time ever doing a setup to an SD card for Riivolution and I thank you for putting up great word by word instructions on how to do it. It was extremely confusing to do at first but I'm glad I got this over with. Thanks for the guide. Now to just figure where the textures for the characters, stages, and songs go to....... :>.>:
The sprite replacement with riivolution on SSBB works on a Wii with a firmware 4.3e ? (sorry for my english i'm from belgium)
What do you choose in the setup when it asks you the code handler?
:-Xhi im new here and i have a hacked wii and it has a broken sd slot i use usb and it does not work HELP!!!!
Do you know where can I place Characters.rel for Bionic sonic????
To the best of my knolage:
Some motions like Zelda/Sheik & Bowser/Giga & Samus/ZSS ect. have to be in the common.pac file they are in. They are mixed up tho so that means that you'd proboly need the Common.pac Common2.pac Common4.pac & Common5.pac for them to work. Common3.pac I don't think has any motionect.pacs in it.
In which folder do you put "config?"
