HAI GUYS MY COMMON5.PAC WON'T WORK =D

But a few things first:

I don't wanna sound like a noob posting so many questions but I seriously cannot find this answer anywhere.

One more thing: Just looking at the title some of you will say "Your problem is its supposed to be common5_en.pac". The _en is supposed to be only for Riivolution users. I do not use Riivolution.

So tell me: Where on my SD card does common5.pac go? I heard it goes right inside the pf folder alongside the "Fighter" and "Stage" folder. That's where I have it but shouldn't it go somewhere else like the pfmenu2 folder?

Thanks in advance for your help =D

pf->system
name it common5
Problem:

Obviously I put it in the right spot because something different happened.
Unfortunately that "something" was the game freezing on the loading screen after the Wii strap screen thing.

So halp with common5.pac freezing game?

If it's freezing at that spot it usually is because of the info.pac
what's the filesize on that if you're using it and if you're not what are you loading?

You would only really need sc_selcharacter.pac and sc_selmap.pac individually, instead of just common5.pac itself. Common5.pac isn't gonna help much because it's one of the files that can freeze brawl before loading the game.

Both sc_selcharacter.pac and sc_selmap.pac are located in pf/menu2.

Bump lol I actually need help with the sc_selcharacter.pac and sc_selmap.pac files. I did as you said to Climberz and deleted common5 and just left the files mentioned before. But now it freezes right at the start menu!! All I'm trying to do is get the freezing to stoop and still have my custom CSPs and Battle Portraits and whatnot. PLEASE HELP SOMEBODY!!

You're not supposed to delete the common5. You need to have both your common5 and sc_selcharacter.pac. Make sure you open your common5 and replace the selcharacter inside with the selcharacter.pac you are currently using.
