So, I believe I've followed the complete n00b guide to a T. I have Homebrew channel and Gecko installed great. I have been working on replacing some textures, but I've been running into a wall. My .gct file has File Patch 3.5.1 on it(I even tried downloading other people's gct files), and every time(even if I haven't attempted to change anyone's textures) I get to the LSS, I get the beep freeze. I know I'm doing SOMETHING right, because I've successfully edited my CSS(using someone else's code, but it did work). Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

I know this problem.

Open the texture in brawlbox and save it as a PCS file, not a pac file.

I think you saved the file as a PAC file.

To get better info on this...
did you do this:
Saved FitCharacter00.pcs as a .pac
Renamed the previously saved file (FitCharacter00.pac) back to FitCharacter00.pcs

REMEMBER:
Do NOT rename any PAC or PCS file to change the file type.
You MUST go into BrawlBox and save it as the correct file type there.
If you turn to your left, you'll see that I have left.

I'll give that a try, but the freezing happens even if I don't have any .pcs or .pac files on my SD card whatsoever.

Hi Killercon,

I don´t realy get what´s your problem and what is "LSS" (honestly never heard of it )   :-\

What I mean by that is "Level Select Screen".

So, I've given up on Gecko, and have moved on to Riivolution. I have immediately had success in that I can now get into a game with my custom CSS enabled, but now I cannot seem to get my custom texture files going. Can anyone tell me which 'hook' I should use, and how to enable it?

SUCCESS!
