Gecko vs. Riivolution

[D1337]

Gecko and Riivolution should have a baby...

[thedragonisonline]

They wont do that because of their motto to not support piracy, and if I remember correctly Gecko can load backups. Besides riivolution can load ocarina codes just, if not better, than Gecko. Thats how I do my file replacement with Riivolution and extra cheats with ocarina at the same time.

I mostly use Riivolution because it's simple to me. But when I'm recording something, like a little portion for a machinima or something, I use Gecko.   

[STUFF2o]

I use Riivolution, but I'm still waiting for some sound effect hacks that interest me to come out.  I haven't done too many hacks since I got Riivolution, but when I do need to take snapshots, I either use BrawlBox or switch over to Gecko for a bit.

Geco is for sd and usb and rivolution for sd ?

For me, I find that loading files from a USB flash drive with Riivolution is slower than using my microSD card with Gecko; but I also have a 2GB SD card that is just as slow when used with either one.

[thedragonisonline]

To clarify, Both Gecko and Riivolution load their respective codes off of SD/USB. They don't load games off of USB.

I don't know if anyone brought this up yet, but Riivolution also has RiiFS, which lets you keep all your files on your computer, lets you change them and they'll be updated in game (kinda like Gecko), and you can stream stuff from servers (I think Bionic Sonic has a RiiFS server for mods or something?).

However, the loading time is just terrible, and you still can't save things to the SD card or take your SD card out of the slot. It's also difficult to set up for some people.

[libertyernie]

I think you can use the SD card in Brawl while using RiiFS, as long as you've got the newest versions of both RiiFS and Riivolution. Start Riivolution without the SD card in and the RiiFS server running, and they should find each other automatically.

I have 4.3U and i can use texture and more with geco,

bannerbomb dont worc for 4.3, I use stac smash (sd hacing custom stage)

[Iris]

I want to use Riivolution but my Nintendo Wii can't read Compact Disks

[thedragonisonline]

I think you are mistaken, Wii reads DVDs or digital video disks not CDs. Either way a broken disk drive sucks. If you are brave enough you can find replacements on eBay.
