Project M Build: Roy Freezes

[Pretty.Chunky.Princess]

Hi there.

I recently compiled myself a nice build for Project M and lately I've been getting freezes and a buzzing noise after selecting Roy.

It happens occasionally and I was wondering if you guys ran into the same problem when compiling. Is there any remedy to it or is it just a model/CSS/CSP glitch.

It's only been Roy so far and it seems like every other character is just fine.

If you'd like a copy of my build, to help with my problem just shoot me a PM.

Thanks a ton smashboards.

More details please

It might be your file size being too big with all your customization.
It could be you misspelled one of his files for custom textures, is it freezing after a certain color and clicking start, or is it effecting every color?

I finally fixed it. I forgot that Roy was a completely custom character and that his PAC and PCS files couldn't exceed a certain size compared to Marth.

I just switched between Marth and Roy models and it worked. Apparently it can't exceed ~700kb per model for Roy.

common5.pac and other files were no problem, all formatted correctly. Just FitRoy files too large.

Thanks a ton for responding.

What is the filesize limit by any chance?

I'm having the same issue as Pretty.Chunky.Princess, only with Pikachu instead, which is strange considering that Pikachu isn't a clone engine character.

I thought the problem was within my Common5.pac, but after sending a lot of the CSPs to tinypic.com for compression, I still got the freezing error with Pikachu.

Everything else works fine though strangely. Pikachu is the only one that's crashing the entire game..

Any thoughts on this?

Every character has a file size limit I think. I think the size varies though.

I wonder how I'm surpassing the limit though? I don't have any alternate costumes for Pikachu, besides the ones that the PMBR gave aha.

Strange..

When you save/export your common5 file out of Brawlbox to put into your build, make sure you delete the _en that comes after it when you do that.

A two letter error like that can cause the whole game to freeze. I'm sure it's not that though, because you said it's only Pikachua but you get the gist of it.
