In smash selector, if you got the game from eShop, make sure it's set to cartridge. If you have the game on a cartridge, set it to CIA. Save your settings, then launch the game from smash selector.

That doesn't work, the problem is still there, i also formated the console, i reinstaled Freeshop and downloaded Smash, but nothing.

There's a bug in the current version. A new release will be out in about 3 days and it has fixed most if not all of the bugs, and allows downloading modpacks through url.

Now, before anyone thinks that this is another attempt to recreate melee, its not. Now that that is over with let me explain what smash selector is. It is a homebrew cia that allows you to download and patch the latest compiled SaltySD, and also allows you to quickly select different folders from which to load your mods from.

All options in saltsyd that require internet are not working at the moment, you have to download the files manually.

The patching feature requires a cfw to work. On luma3ds cfw you can enable it by configure luma3ds's settings to allow code redirection by holding 'select' while booting luma3ds. Now make sure "Enable region/language emu. and ext. .code" is checked on. It might be named something slightly different now. Make sure that you are not using the nightly version of luma3ds.

After you have a cfw with a code patching option enabled, download smash selector install it using a cia installer and run it once.

If you do not wish to use luma3ds and want to use another cfw change the config file at /3ds/data/smash_selector/config.txt and change the path to when you want it to load the bin files from.

My server is currently a bit broken due to comcast, so you have to download the bin files manually.
Download these and put the files in /luma/code_sections/ or whatever you set the default loading place to be.

Now you should have a folder called /saltysdMODS/ on the root of your sd card. create a folder called Slot_1 and place it in /saltysdMODS/ you can then put your mods in that folder. You might want to create a text file called desc.txt in each Slot_X folder with a short description in order to view witch folder is what in smash selector.You can create as many Slot_X folders as you want.

Here is a visual for those who want it. I included what a mod of captain falcon's moves might look like in the Slot_folder.

Code:

G:\saltysdMODS | | +---Slot_1 | | desc.txt | | | \---animcmd | \---fighter | \---captain | \--game.bin | +---Slot_2 | \--desc.txt | +---Slot_3 | \--desc.txt | +---Slot_4 | \--desc.txt | +---Slot_5 | \--desc.txt | +---Slot_6 | \--desc.txt | \---Slot_7 \--desc.txt

Once you have that done launch smash selector, configure the options, save the settings, and launch the game.

After you downloaded and installed the latest compiled Luma3ds, you have to set up your sd card.
You should create a folder called "saltysd" on the root of your sd card. Inside there, you should add as many folders as you want called smashXX where XX is a number. You should start your numbering at 1. If you want, you can create a text file called desc.txt in each of the smashXX folders. This should be a short description of what mods you put in that folder.
Here is a visual for those who want it. I included what a mod of captain falcons moves might look like in the smash1 folder.

Currently this feature is not in a released version of luma3ds, but you can download it from here.
I used believe I used comment version 61684ecb.
Luma3DS v6.0 has been released and includes this feature

Code:

G:\saltysd | | +---smash1 | | desc.txt | | | \---animcmd | \---fighter | \---captain | \--game.bin | +---smash2 | \--desc.txt | +---smash3 | \--desc.txt | +---smash4 | \--desc.txt | +---smash5 | \--desc.txt | +---smash6 | \--desc.txt | \---smash7 \--desc.txt

Here is another visual for good measue

Code:

G:/saltysd G:/saltysd/smash1 G:/saltysd/smash1/desc.txt G:/saltysd/smash2 G:/saltysd/smash2/desc.txt G:/saltysd/smash3 G:/saltysd/smash3/desc.txt G:/saltysd/smash4 G:/saltysd/smash4/desc.txt G:/saltysd/smash5 G:/saltysd/smash5/desc.txt G:/saltysd/smash6 G:/saltysd/smash6/desc.txt G:/saltysd/smash7 G:/saltysd/smash7/desc.txt

Once you have downloaded and installed luma3ds and set up the sd card, configure luma3ds to allow code redirection by holding select while booting luma3ds. Now make sure "Enable region/language emu. and ext. .code" is checked on.
Finally boot into your 3ds and launch your favorite cia installer and install Smash-Selector.
Launch Smash-Selector from the home menu and press select to download the latest saltysd.
Try not to spam downloading the saltysd update button. It takes a long time to download as it is, and I dont need tons of people slowing down the server.
In case some of the older saltysd users dont know, you no longer need to generate a cache file for the game to load fast. Actually, I believe generating it at all is obsolete.

IF you are looking for mods to download look at these places.

Troubleshooting
The game only loads saltysd smash
Make sure you have the default smash update installed
SaltySD doesnt work
Make sure you are using smash version 1.1.6 If version 1.1.7 come out it may take a day or two in order for me to update it.
SaltySD still doesnt work
Its possible that the latest build has an error. If multiple people have this error then I will put the last working build up.
SaltySD crashes after title scrren
Try backing up your save data using this tool, then delete your save data by pressing A+B+X+Y while booting smash. If this fixed your problem either start fresh, or attempt to re-inject the backup of your save data.(This is most likely not your problem but you can try just in case.)
If nothing there works its possible that I messed up in the coding. I have only tested this with USA smash, so that might be the problem. PM me and I'll try to help.
Currently I have this set to build the latest SaltySD every three hours (Hopefully on the hour) but this may change.

why when i turn off smash mod selector it slows down the normal game?

that should be impossible, because if its turned off it literally has no way of loading mods. It is 100% original smash 4.

Well i mean is that i have smash downloaded and when i turned off salty sd and no mods it takes a minute to load up stages and menus in the normal smash itself. Maybe it might has something to do with the micro sd i guess, but before i had salty sd the game ran fast.

No clue as to what the problem could be. Im releasing the new version today around 6PST or 9EST, so you can try that build and see if It works any better.

edit, looks like I will be uploading how to use the new version tomorrow, but for now here is a version to make you guys happy.
Also here is a link to test out Smash Selector's download through url function. http://tinyurl.com/n4t6oaf The bottom screen is a bit broken with the text on screen, but that should not affect the downloading itself.

actually I just found out that downloading is slightly broken. It saves an extra character to the end of every file name rendering it unload able. Its a simple fix, but I need some sleep

i need some help: i want to use a voice mod for the 4th Bayonetta costume slot but the voice only works for the normal ones. I have tried adding the _c04 to the name but instead none of them had the modded voice.
