How do I play Project M on EU?

I've been trying to install Project M on my Wii with a certain guide I found on reddit (wich I can't link)

But it doesn't work. I've tried it twice now, and everything seems to work up until the part I try to start up Project M and my Wii just crashes. The guide also seems out of date wich may be the problem? It's a year old and has a screenshot of how your SD card is supposed to look when following the steps, but is much different.

Does anyone have a guide that certainly works?

Right now when I try to launch PM from the USB loader I get an error

usb8:/codes/RSBE01.gct does not exist! loading game without cheats.

If I press continue it starts up normal brawl. I know I have this .gct file on my SD card tho, but maybe I don't have it in the right place?

Right now it's in both the Project M folder -> Full -> RSBE01.gct and Codes -> RSBE01.gct

You need a NTSC version of brawl. PAL won't be supported until the next release of PM. I don't even think a PAL wii will run it unless it's hacked either.

I used a guide to hack my Wii and then run it by using an NTSC Iso, but I don't know what this error means. I've reinstalled everything and the same error pops up, but I'm almost certain that the .gct file is in the right folder

Yes it should be in the codes folder and in the full folder. Are you sure it's in the codes folder as well?

SD card sounds wrong.

Should have the homebrew version yea?

the gct should be in

SD:/codes


// sorry didnt read properly and see you had it in both =/

hey, yeah, im using a pal wii and game disk but i have loaded the htsc version of brawl on my usb loader gx and it runs fine, but whenever i put ocarina on and change the hook to what is instructed it loads to brawl but with all the new characters.
Firstly it will go to the usual wii mote warning - but instead of opening up the project m banner and having the intro with the characters all purple, it says something about online functionality and then loads normally...i go to characters and all the project m characters are there, but shortly after the system freezes and emits a humming noise.
Desperate to play some project M, my melee is scratched. Any help would be very much appreciated.
