Setting up brawlex

[Ebola16]

Wow. Ok then there's always this one http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=210784
Use the 4GB version as I'm not sure if the 2GB version has the SDHC code in it.

Seems the vault is having issues. I get the dl link from mediafire, but it just sits there, not downloading.

I've been trying to get the file for a few hours now, but it goesas far as 46% then breaks.

Will try again tomorrow, as it seems that there is something that's not playing right with downloading today.

I use mediafire for my links too but it does have issues on rare occasions.

[Flaya]

Yes. I managed to get it about about an hour ago, but it gives me black screen when launching. I tried different hook types, but the best result was from default vbi where I got to the roster screen before freezing with an annoying beeeeep....

[Ebola16]

Not what I was expecting at all...
So you successfully loaded Project M through USB Loader GX. Did you change anything else other than the files on the SD card and Gecko's hooktype?

What is the format of your SDHC card? It should be FAT32.

[Flaya]

Yes Project M loads fine. Didn't change anything else. Format is FAT32 32kb.

Is there perhaps something else I need or need to do before using Brawlex builds?

Or am I correct in assuming that it's just a matter of putting the files on the SD card?

I tried starting from scratch with reformatting the card and installing the things one by one, but I get the same result.

Try running the pack using the included project m launcher included in the 4GB download. It should be available through the homebrew channel if you use the included apps folder. You'll need to use the actual disk for it though. I just want to see if this fails too. I believe it uses a VBI hook initially and switches to AXNextFrame after that.

[Flaya]

It runs great using the original disc.

Re-ripped it to make sure I got a 100% working copy. md5 matches.

So it's not an issue with my backup.

[Ebola16]

Now we're getting somewhere. Does it work with the original disc using both Project M's loader and the Ocarina homebrew app?

[Flaya]

Yes it does. And I'm downloading the Legacy 1.3 pack to see if that works. Just to eliminate the faulty pack suspect. :)

Well it gives the same results. Don't have a 2GB card to try anything but the sdhc packs, otherwise I'd try that too..


Is there a way to run it from USB?

Like if I put my backup and the brawlex pack on a seperate stick and use that?

[Ebola16]

Ok, so the last Brawlex pack you downloaded worked outside of USB Loader GX.

The next most likely problem is with USB Loader GX settings. Replacing the usbloader_gx folder in /apps with a default one may solve the problem after reconfiguring it. It's possible some setting got inadvertently changed.

The other possibility is a custom IOS was installed that's either extremely outdated or partially incompatible with USB Loader GX's Ocarina loader. If a reset of USB Loader GX doesn't work it may be better to post on a USB Loader GX forum since the problem seems to be confined to USB Loader GX now.

I use USB Loader GX with Brawlex so it's definitely possible but a dedicated USB Loader GX forum would be better for troubleshooting issues than my suggestions. Especially since installation methods have changed since I installed it.

[Flaya]

Great, thank you for your help. :)

Will conduct further research and if I manage to figure it out, I'll make sure to post back how. :)
