I use Smash Stack, and sometimes when I go to Stage Builder to load Gecko OS, instead of taking me to the black, coded screen, it just sits there. If I attempt to exit or click on anything, the game will semi-freeze -- animations and music still play, but the controls are frozen. I have to reboot my Wii and go back; it always works after that. A few times though I had to reboot twice in a row. This is an extremely annoying issue and a big time-waster, so I'd appreciate it if anyone can help me resolve it.    
    
Here is a screenshot of the screen it keeps me in until I reboot. The empty gray box with the circle in it is Stack Smash/Gecko OS. Not supposed to see it for even a second.

Wait, if you already have Homebrew installed, what do you need Stack Smash for?

What are you talking about? I don't have Homebrew which is why I use Stack Smash.



This might sound crazy but I use to get the all the time, specially when I tested out my hacks in-game.

But ever since I now have a background image for my Gecko OS loader, it never messes up.

Ohhhh sorry, I was not aware that method existed.

I usually run into these problems if I add new hacks.

I have a background for mine, too.

Hmm...this is quite brain-racking. so how exactly do you use this method??

By the way, I think every active hacker in this forum could use less distractions.

you have been through a lot of hassle. I've watched every topic you posted on this, and most of them seemed to disintegrate gradually.
But the coolest part was that you didn't stop working on it despite that.

you're doing more with your life right now than probably most other people around you. You're a valuable asset to the Smash community. So yeah, you should be proud.

Why did you link me to Balanced Brawl? I use Brawl Minus. Not Plus, not Balanced, not P:M even though that's not ready yet.

Anyway, it's a mystery glitch, huh? I see.

BBrawl comes premade for smash stack. Its simply the best resource for it anywhere, most of  the B- team use Configurable USB (stinking pirates!) or homebrew. Not one other B-  community member uses it that i know of. They just added it as an afterthought and for passing around at tourney's.

So I'm really using BBrawl and not Minus?
