I usually use Project M's version of All-Star Mode because Brawl's loading in All-Star Mode is just atrocious. Nevertheless, I'm having issues completing the mode all of a sudden. As a side note, this happened after I completed vanilla Brawl with King Dedede.
So I've tried running through All-Star Mode twice now with Yoshi. It all plays fine and the usual throughout the entire mode, even to the credits. The issue is that the game WILL NOT go to the generic 'Congratulations' screen like it's supposed to. After the credits, the game just hangs on a black screen and I'm forced to shut off the console. And irritatingly enough, this DOES NOT save my score or get me the Final Smash trophy. This is incredibly irritating, to say the least.
I don't know why it suddenly started happening. This never happened to me before, and literally every other time before I completed King Dedede in vanilla Brawl, this sequence worked perfectly fine.
Did the generic Congratulations message get overwritten or deleted or something after I played All-Star Mode with King Dedede in vanilla Brawl? I should note that I took the SD Card out when I played Dedede because Brawl sometimes gets funky if you play vanilla Brawl with the Project M SD Card in.
Should I try re-downloading and re-installing Project M? I just can't figure out why it's hanging that like now...

OK, First way to get an explanation with a bug is to reproduce it.
So in order to do that:

Step 1. make a backup of the Bugged SD files.
Step 2 Reinstall PM.
Step 3, try to reproduce the bug.

Once you can reproduce it. Report it with All details, clear steps for reproducing and any attachments that may help (ie pictures video)

Bug testing is like science. if you ever expect to see a solution you need thorough documenting, multiple tests and controls in order to isolate the bug.

Ehh, I just want a re-working All-Star Mode back.
