Ya know, I would make a joke saying that you're wrong... but this is horrifically too close to the truth.

 

[azzinothflame]

Hello. I have problems with the mod. I use the hackless method.

When i put play in the pm menu (after using the stage builder), the screen put all black and nothing happens.

I dont know what can be, i am not using a gamecube memory, i formated the sd card with fat32, i moved all the 6 files too, i am using a 2gb mini sd card with adapter ( it worked with the normal 3.6 pm). And that, i dont know what is the problem. (Help please)

*Edit: I use a original copy of brawl.

I've got the same problem.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it's because you're using USB to load the game (I'm using USB Loader GX), and Legacy (or at least the Project M launcher) only works with a copy of Brawl as of now.
Would love to play this mod on something else than Dolphin, but at least PM works fine
PAL Wii users unite!

 

[azzinothflame]

Nope, i use a copy of brawl

Super Smash Bros. Legacy 1.3 is officially out.

Enjoy this trailer, ladies and gentlemen.

Edit: everything on the first post is updated to reflect the 1.3 update.

 

[Panudroid]

davidvkimball nice trailer, man. Can't wait to try it out. I don't know if I am the only one, but I was wondering if you could set up a torrent link also? My net speeds aren't the best. Anyway, great job!

 

[bwburke94]

Retro mode reminds me of that PM April Fools joke from last year.

 

[Kulty]

Smash Bros legacy I feel will become the Project M version of Smash 4, since we now include Smash 4 stages...Can't wait to play the full release...

 

[??Sanic Hedgehog??]

All you guys are hype and I'm just sitting here, Knowing that I got it before any of you

 

[ElGoombaswag]

I'm having the best Easter, right now.

 

[SonicFire131]

I know that im probably not the first to post something like this, but no Lyn, Knuckles, or Isaac from the old dev build? and any hope for a SuperGirlKels alt for Sonic? or other Top Smasher alts for their mains?

 

[Chaozrush21]

Lyn, Knuckles, or Issac will probably never come OFFICIALLY (as soon aa this build is BrawlEX compatible you could add them to your build yourself as long as you're just going to use it as a personal build) to this build considering that could get the old PM Dev Team into trouble and other stuff might happen. I seriously have no clue who SuperGirlKels is, but if you can find a BrawlVault alt for her it might happen, but still might not.

 

[Logo12]

Any possibility for a Japanese version?

 

[Shiver-Star]

omg I'm definitely maining that Kamina costume for Roy
Also, what's up with Yoshi's victory theme? It's just wrong.
Btw, do you mind if you could post a screenshot for every Retro character? I'd appreciate that.

 

[Hedgie]

Super Smash Bros. Legacy 1.3 is officially out.

I'm glad the overhaul is finally public. Crossing my fingers and hoping they can run my HD Beachville without lagging tho

 

[Gunman1357]

I know that im probably not the first to post something like this, but no Lyn, Knuckles, or Isaac from the old dev build? and any hope for a SuperGirlKels alt for Sonic? or other Top Smasher alts for their mains?

Well I'm guessing Legecy isn't using the Leaks out of respect for the old PMDT, and because they wouldn't want to get the old team in trouble or involved with anything they're doing.

 

[Gunman1357]

Smash Bros legacy I feel will become the Project M version of Smash 4, since we now include Smash 4 stages...Can't wait to play the full release...

Nah I wouldn't say that, When ProjectM4 Comes, it will come.

 

[azzinothflame]

I still cant play, i followed all the steps and i cant pass trought the pm menu. The screen is all black.

 

[GrandeurCicero]

It seems that when I try to use rainbow peach on wii, the game won't finish when trying to load a stage?

edit: rainbow peach seems to be the only one that keeps the game on "Now Loading"

 

[Panudroid]

I still cant play, i followed all the steps and i cant pass trought the pm menu. The screen is all black.

Just to recap, you formatted and copied all the files in the hackless version to you SD card, put it in your wii, inserted the disc, booted up brawl, went to stage builder and when you click "play" on the launcher, it just shows a black screen?

 

[??Sanic Hedgehog??]

EVERYONE!!!!!!

DON'T FORGET TO REFORMAT YOUR SD CARD TO FAT32 BEFORE DOWNLOADING LEGACY 1.3

 

[azzinothflame]

Yes, i did all. I even tried the "Normal" pm with the same steps and it worked without problems. The only file i did not put in the sd card was the image inside.

Note: With "do all" i mean : Format fat32, extract files from the hackless zip, copy the file " project m" file ( for the dlc music) and erase some music to have the space. I moved all the 6 files , removed the memory card. Opened the stage builder, appear the black screen with numbers, green screen, then appear the pm menu, i put play... and permanent black screen.

Something curious is that in the pm menu, there is no "addons" bottom, there is an "about" bottom.

 

[Panudroid]

While formatting, don't quick format. That's all I can think of right now off the top of my head. You sure you aren't forgetting any details? Oh, and make sure the SD card isn't locked.

 

[azzinothflame]

I was using quick format. I will try again now.... wish me luck!

 

[azzinothflame]

NOPE, it does not work either


Help, please.

 

[Abard.]

Hey, so I'm probably missing something, but I don't understand what to do for step 5 for dolphin.
It says to open to .elf file of your choice. But it only says to download the sd.raw file.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

 

[Cold To The Touch]

I'm having trouble installing Legacy. It's always stuck on the booting screen.

Download Gecko OS and use the .elf that's in the HBC folder. That should be the one you need

When you download the entire dolphin it comes with the download.

So I downloaded gecko os and got the boot.elf file where you said it was, but when I set the hook type to VBI and launch, it just launches Brawl. I put the sd.raw file in the right folder, so I am completely unsure of what to do. Thanks.

 

[Chaozrush21]

This is a few bugs I found so far. Keep in mind that I am currently using the 1.3, Wii, Homebrew, non HD version of SSB Legacy.

Spoiler: Single Player

Classic Mode - Menu causes crash nearly instantly.
All-Star Mode - Menu is working, but causes a instant crash after pressing start.
Break the Target Mode - Menu is working, but causes a instant after pressing start.
Event Mode - Currently untested.
Subspace Emissary - Currently untested and probably will never be tested.

Spoiler: Stages

Disclaimer: I do not have the Dolphin build so some of the stages that lag might not lag on Dolphin. If you can confirmed that some of these stages do not lag on the Dolphin build please say so in the thread or PM me so I can add it to this!

Wario Land - Lags slightly with 4 players.
Bowser's Castle's Hidden Stage - Lags with 4 players.
Saffron City's R Stage - Lags with 4 players.
Arena Ferox's L Stage - Lags with 4 players.
Battlefield's R Stage: Lags a hell of a lot even with 2 players.
Onett's Hidden Stage - Incorrect Character shading.
Rumble Falls's Z Stage - Lags with 3 players.
Pyrosphere default and every alt stage besides the L alt - Lags with 4-3 players.
Miiverse's Hidden Stage - Lags with 3 players.

Spoiler: Characters

Bowser's Retro Model - Bowser's Nose texture is all over his mouth.
ZS Samus's Retro Model - No eyes.
Dedede's Retro Model -Textures are completely blue.
Olimar's Retro Model - Pikmin eyes and leaves are glitched.
Kirby's Retro Model - Kirby's mouth is in a constant "O" shape.
Peach's Rainbow Model - Crashes.

EVERY CHARACTER BELOW IS CONFIRMED TO HAVE NO N64 MODEL

Note: All models that has a [?] Sign next to them means that their Model is replaced, but they are just models from Melee Remastered and are not true N64 like models and will likely be replaced in the feature.

Wolf
Ice Climbers [?]
Lucario [?]
Jigglypuff [?]
Ivysaur [?]
Squirtle [?]
Pit
Meta Knight
Ike [?]
Marth [?]
Roy [?]
Olimar [?]

So to summarize everything, Solo Mode is nearly completely broken outside of Multi-man Smash, Training Mode, and so far Subspace. Charactes in Retro Mode are mostly broken and most of it is safe to assume is placehold and broken. Some alt stages lag, but half of the times it only lags slightly and requires 4 players.

I'll continue to update this if I encounter anymore bugs.

Edit 1: Added a few things to the Character section.

 

[Cynapse]

I haven't downloaded this thing, but based on the trailer I presume those rainbow skins are mine and the code to summon them is NintenNess'.

I'm also going to assume credit is given somewhere in the ReadMe for both of those things.

Further, both of those together look awful thanks to color spectrum effect of NinetenNess' code. A certain someone is working on having the code simply summon whatever is in the FitCharDark as is, which will be a substantial improvement. Just a heads up.
. . .
Now, there's no disclaimer of any sort in my rainbow pack (there is now!) because I never figured they would be used in any way that wasn't as a single skin, so this is cool...I guess.

My point here is that even though I never mentioned anything about asking for permission and the like before using my stuff, I'm still pissed that I found out about it after the fact. I'm going to be a bit of a ***** and request that they are removed until someone asks me about them. Yes, I know the Vault rules and minor disputes such as this are to be settled between authors.
(the SSE clones hardly look any different from my rainbow skins with NintenNess' code anyway)

 

[squeakyboots13]

This is the kind of thing that makes me not really a fan of custom builds that are just mostly compilations of stuff made by other people. When you just put whatever you find on BrawlVault that looks cool into a build without asking permission from the creator, you're inevitably going to run into scenarios like this. And in this case, it's kind of a big deal since you had promoted it in your trailer as a main feature of the build. Using other people's work in that sort of matter isn't cool and it can easily be seen as disrespectful to the people that spent a lot of their own free time working on this content.

I agree with Cynapse's notion that you should remove his skins from your build. (And probably also make a new version of the trailer that removes mention of them.) Just slapping someone's name in the readme file isn't always enough.

 

[Quaza]

Did this fix the issue of when you random a stage you sometimes get a random non-standard stage? Cuz that always pissed me off. It was removed from the "known issues" so I'm a little worried...

 

[Xalusc]

Headband Puff and Awakening Roy? Please?

Suggestion: you could use PM 3.61 as the base instead... It's essentially PM 3.6 with bugfixes, Headband Puff and Awakening Roy

They are leaked skins, aka, not allowed.
