Random Deaths: Any suggestions?

[Oni K4ge]

So, though my problem hasnt just started, its getting VERY tiresome and aggravating. I start brawl using gecko os 1.9.1 (but only because I cant find a 1.9.3 channel) and have been since I installed the channel, which was in July. Eversince I started using textures and such, my brawl game freezes seemingly for no reason.

the freezing mostly occurs after ending a battle right before the results screen or selecting someone at the css. I have tried alot of different things but I cannot seem to solve this dilema.

^^Solved

Time to address another problem.

This is very strange. This has been happening since a bit after I started replacing music. Or, this is when I started to notice anyway. every so often, a bfief line will flash across the screen, and the characters will suddenly die. like, not like in stamina mode, but its like the fell off the screen. it usually happens in the air. and sometimes, (for example on lylat cruise) I was playing as Falco and doing the A-A-A combo where he spins, and all of a sudden he appeared on the other side of the stage in the air!

Oh, and if it helps, I use the file replacement code to load:
textures
stages
csps
music
psas
items (sometimes)

The codes I use (typically) are:

file replacement 3.5.1
infinite jumps players 1-3 and the must be on code
infinite b up 1.2
partial size modifier set pointers
partial size modifier skip write
various model codes I made, as well as a few other peoples. (this cannot be the problem because I dont always use these codes and it still freezes quite often)
CSS Fix (for custom css program phantom made)
ganon uses sword and the 2 necessary codes for it. unlikely to be the cause.
and SOMETIMES I use my own CSS code because phantoms program still wont let me use alloys and company on the CSS >_>
all the css fixes

So yeah, any help is appreciated.

If you push buttons as the match ends it freezes the game, I'm not sure about the ones where it freezes on the CSS.

Just don't hit any buttons until it shows the results.

The results screen loads CSPs from 'menu\common\char_bust_tex' and stock portraits from 'stage\melee\STGRESULT.pac'. Someone else had a similar problem with the results screen, and it turned out to be an old CSP file from CUPASH. Try removing these locations from the SD card and see if it helps.

Oh k. but the only button I press is start to get out of it, and sometimes z to save a replay.

does it now? hmm... I bet its the char_bust_tex files then. I modify CSPs all the time but NEVER touch those. That could be it, Ill try removing them.

No I meant while the match is ending, before the results show up. It can also happen if you press buttons rapidly in the results screen though iirc

oh ok. well, so far, im not hammering buttons and i took out the char_bust_tex files and there has been no freezing so far! :D I even spammed all the costumes on the css of a few charcters and quickly started a match. guess what! no annoying beep! yahoo! thanks guys so much, if i could +rep i would. if any more random feezing occurs Ill update. thanks again!

well, i have 3.4 but im gonna update to 4.0 soon with the updater. i dont want 4.2, but is 4.1 safe? hmm... but i do think the freezing has stopped now

Freezing NEVER has anything to do with System Menu version.

The IOS used by brawl is the only thing wii related that could affect anything, and even then, NO, don't tell people to update because of texture hacks failing. I bet you have a corrupt texture.

well, i had a corrupt texture once before but that was just for that character that it froze. it isnt always the same character that freezes. but MOST of the random freezing has stopped by removing the char_bust_tex files from my sd card. the only thing I still need to solve is that every so often, a bfief line will flash across the screen, and the characters will suddenly die. like, not like in stamina mode, but its like the fell off the screen. it usually happens in the air. and sometimes, (for example on lylat cruise) I was playing as Falco and doing the A-A-A combo where he spins, and all of a sudden he appeared on the other side of the stage in the air!

EDIT: Renamed Topic because of new problem. Updated OP.

This is undoubtedly a problem with the Partial Size modifiers. For some odd reason, characters randomly die, maybe has something to do with it being around other codes. I dunno.

I'm just sure that once you take off those codes, everything will be fine. =P
