I'm pretty sure I have everything set up right but I just don't understand why when I place hacks in my RiiFS folder while having my RiiFS C++ server and Brawl- running, that hack won't appear in the game.

I have two "smashmods" .XMLs, placed in my 'riivolution' folder on both my SD card and my computer's RiiFS folder in my C drive. I also have two "riifstemplate" .XMLs in the same places and configured them with my IPv4 address. I open up RiiFS C++ server and it says this: "RiiFS C++ Server is now ready for connections on 0.0.0.0:1137" and stays like that until I start up Riivolution, then the server says it's connected and then starts entering all of this "return" crap very fast, about five times per second, so I know I have the connection right at least.

Also, this is what my riifstemplates both look like:

Quote
   <wiidisc version="1">
       <!-- id is optional, omit it in order to make Riivolution connect to the server regardless of the game inserted in the drive. -->
      <id game="RSB" />
     
       <!-- address may be an IP address or a hostname/domain. -->
      <network protocol="riifs" address="(my IPv4 address here)" port="1137" />
   </wiidisc>

With RiiFS and Brawl- running, I did a test by adding a Ness texture -- FitNess03.pcs -- to my pf/fighter/ness folder (I edited both smashmods.XMLs to have the FPC file layout) in my RiiFS folder, then when I selected Ness's blue costume in the game he didn't have the texture; he was just in his normal blue costume.

Why can't I stream hacks?

I don't know much about this kind of XML, but I'm pretty sure that's it...... You have to pick which mod you want to stream through Riivo, then wait a while..... It's kinda laggy on startup.

I don't understand. What do I do, just launch Riivo normally like I always would? How can I download hacks on this computer and add them to my game? What folder do I have to put these hacks in?

What about it? I've been there many times before but it doesn't answer any of my questions.

^Eh, you launch riivo, select the XML, click which mod you wanna play. Unless you wanna set up your own RiiFS..... I don't know about that, haven't tried it.

How do you select XMLs in Riivo? If I select my RSB XML, will it also load modlauncher?

It's a little number on the top of the screen with arrows by it, you're basically scrolling through your XMLs, it loads them all at once.

I looked everywhere on my Riivo menu and I see nothing like that anywhere.

Edit: Yep; I just checked again around the top -- I see no little numbers or arrows.

If you have multiple XML's it has a little button right next to the game's name, it says "Page" and then there's the number. If there isn't anything, there, you probably have it in the wrong directory. Did you put it in X:/Riivolution?

Yes. F:/riivolution/RSB.XML.

What the XML looks like:

- <wiidisc version="1">
     <id game="RSB" />
     <network protocol="riifs" address="rvlution.net" port="2011" />
  </wiidisc>

Now I definitely know I don't have it -- I watched a random video of someone using their Riivo, and I saw the number with arrows right next to the game's name. I don't have that for sure.

you have to put in your game first and then you  see the numbers and those two arrows

How do I stream hacks now? I have all my brawlmods files and folders in the same folder as riifs.exe, I edited my common5.pac in my PC folder to change a CSP while running Brawl- and tried adding a Ness texture while running Brawl-, but it didn't change in game -- why? Both my SD card and PC folder have the same exact files, including the riifstemplate.XML

Bump...................  :notimp:

uhm...pcfolder?

why don't you just download the file patch .xml, you know, so the file path is the same as the one from the file patch code:P

I don't understand. But all I'm trying to do is get my RiiFS server to load the hacks I put into its folder into my game.

Also, why did you link me to the Brawl Vault?
