Gecko not loading files

So I set up Homebrew and Gecko OS (Gecko1931), and put the files for file replacement in the private folder and set up the codes in the codes folder, and when I start up the game via Gecko, the codes work but none of the files are read. I can tell because I can save replays longer than 3 minutes, and even when I put only the Phantom Wings replacement code it says "Applying codes" (or whatever), but in game it doesn't load any of the files. What am I doing wrong?

(I'm putting the files in G:\private\wii\app\RSBE\pf\Sound\strm\[file] for the music, as an example)

Your example folder setup is good... perhaps you accidentally misnamed a folder/file?

Also, what kind of SD card are you using? Brawl can't load from SD's that are over 2GB, or are SDHC.

SanDisk microSD™/microSDHC™ 32 GBs. Well, it says microSD and microSDHC on the adapter.

Ah, well I guess your problem is only your SD card then. Gecko is able to read from it, which is why the codes load, but Brawl itself can't read from SD's over 2GB or SDHC, which is why the files DON'T load, because they're loaded in-game.

But having a microSD + adapter IS perfectly fine, as long as you are 2GB or under and not SDHC.

Hmm, ok. But is there any reason Riivolution is loading the files just fine?

I don't know much 'bout Riivo, but I THINK it's able to load off of SD's that Gecko can't (basically any).

That's just me guessing though!
