Project M or any Smash Mods not loading

[pokemongeof]

I have everything prepared in the sd card. But when i try to boot P:M, it freezes.

Help?

We could use a bit more information.
When exactly happened directly before the game froze? (Selected stage builder, launched the game with Gecko OS, etc)
What method are you using? Homebrew, Hackless, Riivolution?
Did you use the installer, or did you do it manually?
What kind of SD card are you trying to use? (SDHC, Storage Size, etc)
Have any brawl modifications ever worked in the past?

Until we know these things, we can't really do much about helping you out.

Ok.

The game freezes after I boot it.

Im using wifi set, riivo.

Manually, i use an SDHC.

P:M and Brawl - have worked in the past

Try not using Riivo because it blows. You'll have to get a smaller SD card though.

see the problem is that it worked for a long time with Project M. And I shall try using Gecko instead, although i like having sound effects like in melee

SDHC has a history of having iffy support for Wii hacks. It's widely known that 2GB non SDHC cards are the best for this kind of stuff. Riivolution has more variables and less support when compared to Gecko OS, so you will have a lot less problems with Gecko. Both programs can be booted through homebrew (and both can be installed to the wii menu), so making the switch shouldn't prove difficult.

Im having the same problem as well. I first downloaded the hackless wii zip on my mac, transferred the files to my sd, booted up the game, went to stage builder as soon as it came up it froze. So trred it from my other laptop, downloaded the installer, booted up the game again, froze at the stage builder part. I dont have any custom stages loaded, no save files what so ever, regular 2gb sd card, not sdhc. not connected to wiiconnect24. Dont know what im doing wrong.

Make absolutely sure that there are no custom stages on your Wii OR on your SD card. A fresh Brawl save will install 3 custom stages by default, so make sure you catch those too.

The easiest catch-all solution for most problems like these after ruling out issues with the SD card (check your Lock switch?) is to simply reformat it as FAT32, unzip the files to the SD card, and try again.

retro23j, it sounds like you're doing everything right, so just double-check everything and try again.
