Hrrrrmmm can you send the files from your sd card it'll be better if i can take a look at it

sure I'll send you a pm


EDIT: solved.

remove those folders and try again

I get the same result. I choose falco and another character that works, click a stage, I hear the crowd cheer, nothing happens. same thing with game&watch. annoying as fuark

Bear with me on this:

1. so as of right now there should be no falco/gamewatch folder in the figther or any rel.

2. what other hacks are you using right now/ who did play with when you tried to test out falco/gamewatch?

3.Are you using anything  like brawlex ,brawl minus....etc..

1. There is a falco and gamewatch folder in pf>fighter, no .rel files for either of them.

2. Not really using any hacks besides some sfx insertions for some characters, tried playing a game with different characters that I know are working

3. no I'm just using vbrawl  

As far as i know both of them use rel files right? did you remove those? Also if they use codes they might effect it as well

yeah under the module folder on my sd I deleted the .rel files for both already but when I try to play as either of the characters the match will still never load. I never inserted any codes.

first of all which two characters did you put?
and if you removed them you shouldn't need to put the original files back

Master Chief over Falco by Leon Exodio, CaliKingz01, jasonvalle22

Naruto Over G&W by CaliKingz01, mnsg, .Fade, Oizen, ds22, KTH, Maxi, SmashClash, SSJCerious, Rikiki

That's how it was like originally. Everything seemed to be working fine, but all of a sudden I have noticed freezing when trying to start a match with those characters, so I tried replacing the characters with .pac and .pcs files that I know have worked previously, but both characters will still freeze. It pretty much feels like the game is not acknowledging and letting me change the characters at all, and it is just stuck always freezing like it always does.
     I can edit any characters successfully except falco and game&watch

I'm on riivolution 1.04 on 4.2U using beyond's launcher. Lately I have noticed that whenever I choose falco or game and watch and select a stage, the game will be stuck on ready to fight and the stage will never load. I had characters on those 2 characters previously but ever since the game wouldn't start when they were selected, I put the original files back on to the characters, and the game will still not get past the stage screen once you select a stage with either of those characters. I tried doing this with a 1gb wii sd card and a 4gb sdhc card with the same result. How can I fix my falco and game and watch? and how can I prevent further freezing on riivolution if possible? thank you.

how did you replace them

in the projectm folder under private I just copy and pasted what was in wario's folder into wario's folder under my private folder for my brawl and it somehow worked.

yes it should (as I currently use a 4gb sdhc card).

Thank you!

I am considering getting a 4gb sd card because the one I have is only 1gb. will a 4gb card work fine with everything? I only use riivolution to load my brawl

Check these things first:
did you change any of the csps? default size 128/160

make sure your codes are correct if you re using wario/warioman/bowser/GigaBowser etc slot mod

remove your pac files and pcs  and fitmotionetc and fitwario and check

are you usng beyondyous riivo setup or modlauncher or an older version (idk about anyone else but I have had problems with beyondyous riivo setup)

check the file name

what sd card are you using?

I would recommend using modlauncher

I have recently switched too but I had issues but I managed to work around them, maybe they might work for you:

I accidentally installed the new version of riivo and my game wouldn't read the sd card properly, idk if anyone else had this problem( I eventually found the issue  but then it wouldn't read my common pac)

so I set mine to use the private folder and the brawlmods (basically put my common stuff in brawlmods stuff and everything else in private, works fine)

I managed to fix wario by replacing the projectm file format of wario's .pac and .pcs files and wariomans as well and everything works fine now. thanks everyone!

Then I have no idea; I tried everything I could think of
...Wait, Regular Brawl for hacks? Regular Brawl crashes the Stage Builder if you have Riivolution SD in, so maybe Wario does? Do you have the Riivolution channel? If not, install it, and run the hacks from there.

yeah I'm just using regular brawl to load the new chars I downloaded. not projectm or brawl+ or -, just standard brawl. I recently started using riivo to load sounds for the characters I have replaced. Wario is the only character with a freezing issue.

The format is correct, but the standard location for Riivolution is in SD Root->ssbb->projectm(Unless you changed it)
Are all your hacks working? Because if none are, then you probably just have the wrong directory.
Also, the size of the .pac may actually be the problem in the first place. Try taking the textures in the .pac and reducing the size of each by halving the size of the picture(In MS Paint), until you get a file that's a lower filesize. To truly test it, you could actually just make a bitmap of 8x8 that's one color, and import that over the textures, and see if it still freezes when hovering over Wario; if it still freezes, then it's not filesize; if it doesn't freeze, it is filesize, and you solved it.

Thanks for the reply. I am not using projectm though, I'm just using regular brawl. Should the location for riivolution be anywhere different? Everything seems to be working perfectly fine except the [censored] wario.

The .pac is barely larger than the original, so I dunno.
Is it Classic Wario you're trying to port onto Wario01? Because I read from someone that Classic and Normal Wario have different bones or something like that, so you can't port them over each other, without having them be imports.

No I'm just trying to make regular wario work again with nothing edited or ported but ever since I began to use riivolution it won't work, the game will just freeze when it is selected. Before I edited any of wario's files I made a backup of the original files so I know these files under fighter>wario should be correct and working. Is it something that has to do with riivolution? Here is the format of my wario folder under pf>fighter>wario. Is the format correct?
FitWario01.pac
FitWario01.pcs
FitWario02.pac
FitWario02.pcs
FitWario03.pcs
FitWario04.pcs
FitWario05.pac
FitWario05.pcs
FitWario07.pcs
FitWario08.pac
FitWario08.pcs
FitWario09.pcs
FitWario10.pcs
FitWario11.pac
FitWario11.pcs

What is the filesize of the Wario .pac/.pcs? Because if it's larger than the original, it will freeze like that.

FitWario01.pac is 1.2mb.
FitWario01.pcs is 483kb

It freezes with any wario selection.

hello. every time I select wario on my css on riivolution the game will freeze with that buzzing sound. all of the files in pf>fighter>wario should already be correct. this has only recently started happening since I started to use riivolution. is there any way to fix this? I am on 4.2U. Everything else works just fine.
