For the Project M homebrew link, he uses the hackless Project M instead.
Would it still work with homebrew instead of hackless somehow (guessing no)?
If you look at my previous post, I have posted instructions for the Homebrew version of Project M.

So for hackless PM all I have to do is create a new save file and download it?

Sorry if this has been answered but I'm not reading through 15 pages...

Why the hell does everyone wants to delete Savegames. If you were online on the Nintendo Servers before use the PID Tool which sends your necessary Informations from your Savegame to the Server so you DONT have to delete your Savegame. If your Savegame had no Friendcode to begin with you will get one from the Server anyway.

Also: wiimmfi.profeibe.at doesnt work anymore because Gamespy's Account Server was taken down.
Because nobody who posts about the PiD tool includes any information about it

Hello, I looked at the original instructions for the Project M Homebrew version and I believe I've found a method that is easier(?). This is mainly for people who don't want to redownload Project M when they already have the homebrew version or want to keep the Homebrew version for whatever reason (SD Card size maybe). What I did is I took the RSBE01.gct file from Rood's method (thanks) and I plugged it into the Project M homebrew version. The link is for Rood's RSBE01.gct file is here:

mediafire(dot)com/download/yxaikjxizw4n14a/RSBE01(dot)gct

(It says I'm not supposed to post links until I have 10 posts. I'm sorry if I shouldn't be doing this but I thought I'd let you guys know).

I'm not sure if it's necessary to plug it into all these places but here are the places I replaced the old RSBE01.gct file with Rood's file.

SD Root>codes
SD Root>projectm>wifi
SD Root>projectm>full

Then plug the SD Card into your wii and connect to wifi normally.
Will add this to OP when I'm at my computer

yes, I am using a wii u and wiimote made after 2012. will it work if I get a wiimote that was made before 2012 and does not have wiimotion plus?
It definitely should. The guide says "Hackless method will not work on Wii U if you use a motion plus wiimote or a wiimote manufactured after around 2012."

I'm trying to set up the hackless wifi for Project M. I've got Riivolution on my SD Card as well as the link given under "Project M Hackless" in the OP. When I go to stage builder it boots Riivolution fine, but it just brings me to regular vBrawl. It allows me to go on Wifi, but I have no way to access Project M. Any ideas?

I am pretty sure PM does not work with Riivolution due to having a different file structure but don't quote me on that. Don't have both riivolution and the pm set, just one or the other

Thanks for the reply! I tried it out, and am now connecting to Project M, but not WiFi. The only things I put on my SD Card were the file under "Project M Hackless" that is linked in the OP, and the Hackless WiFi set of Project M off of their website.

I Think you only need the Project M Hackless

some people have reported success by formatting their SD cards before trying out the wifi, according to Rood, the guy who made the hackless wifi set

For anyone who is able to play Project M online on a Wii U, using the hackless method, could you help me out?

What's the best choice for wi-fi?

I already have Project M running, I just need to be pointed in the right direction, (the right method).

I'm going to go ahead and post your link myself, for convenience's sake.
This is the code me and my friends use to play online with 3.02, if anyone else wants to use it for similar means.

Hacked or hackless?

There's a full save provided in the OP: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u...ntent.com/u/22269463/Brawl Wifi/brawlsave.zip

Or are you asking for something else?

Try this method, if you haven't already. It works better than trying to run through the patcher, then Smash Stack, in my experience.

So, I play PM via CFG Loader, because my Wii's laser burned out lol.

However, sometime when I play online, there'll be no percentages showing, or it'll randomly desynch and then resynch again. The latter hasn't happened recently, but the former has, OFTEN.

I'm using the PM Wifi Hackles set, and I have a bunch of custom textures if that matters. I patched my iso on my usb drive with the wiimmfi images thingamajig. Do I need to put the wiimmfi images file on my SD card too?

Any way to fix this? @ pidgezero_one pidgezero_one or anyone for that matter.

My friend and I have the desyching problem on some stages. This is caused by custom textures so we just avoid playing specific stages/picking specific characters. Maybe try removing your custom textures, they may be interfering with the game.

Ok im on homebrew version and now all of a sudden I keep getting code 20100 what does this mean it was fine not to long ago and I haven't changed any of my files lately since I switched from Hackless to homebrew.
Disregard this message I just read what the 20100 problem is in the beginning of this thread.

Is there a way to do the homebrew version but keep content you added onto and SD, I have custom costumes and music and stage textures and I was wondering.

If I can't through the homebrew version then that's fine, I will just switch them out when I want to practice and play online

If you look at my post on page 14, it might help.
Edit: It's post number 541.

How would I go about doing this for Brawl? I am using the Homebrew + Wiimmfi Patcher so how would I go about putting my SKTAR pack for Brawl?
