Post by: SmasherOfHyrule on April 16, 2011, 11:53:16 PM
My f***ing wii's being a total piece of s*** and won't read sd card data in brawl, disabling the file patch code and everything!!!!

Has the SD card reached it's size limit?

Can you open the SD card in your computer?

"In order to use Brawl hacks such as textures, models hacks, or PSAs, you first have to have some method of loading Homebrew. All of these methods require an SD Card. To see if your SD Card is compatible, check here: http://wiibrew.org/wiki/SD/SDHC_Card_Compatibility_Tests. If you already have Homebrew installed"

You basically put a blank SD card into your wii expecting it to work...*facepalm*

And the first question is a no if it's brand new.

Oh, one more thing...

The reason why it won't save is because you haven't set up a directory where brawl can save.

Even with hacks (private/wii/app/RSBE etc.) it doesn't work with the file patch code or saved data. I'm pretty sure btw that it works without making a directory. As far as i know it creates a directory automaticly

Incorrect directory.

private/wii/app/RSBE/pf

If it does then are you using gecko or riivo?

Add in a al, rp, and st file and try saving in brawl again.

SanDisk brand SD cards tend to be the best ones to use with the Wii.

Shouldn't the SD card's file system be FAT?  That's what my SD card is set at.

That has to be an SDHC card that you're using.  Standard SD cards almost never use more than 2 GB.

I don't think the problem has to do with directories, i think it might be a problem with my wii. If i use ocarina or older versions of gecko, it says "sd error".
Title: Re: Brawl won't read sd cards!!!

well, just what is your directory, I mean, maybe it isĀ  the problem...
