Okay. I tried putting /saltysd/smash/sound with all of the default BGM. Still crashes when trying to access the menu.Try adding files to /saltysd/smash that are valid.

You're not putting every game file into saltySD/smash/ are you?Tried that too. Still crashes.
smash selector changes the name of smashx to smash and puts a number into a text doc whenever you bootYou're not putting every game file into saltySD/smash/ are you?
I'm fairly aware of that. But putting all of the game's files into saltySD/smash (or smash1 ect) might be causing @knavesmith 's game to crash.smash selector changes the name of smashx to smash and puts a number into a text doc whenever you boot
No, I'm not. I was contemplating on trying, but I wasn't willing to import 1GB+ of data that would probably just end in another crash.You're not putting every game file into saltySD/smash/ are you?
Mind sending me your mods? Ill see if anything crashes my game and try to possibly fix it too.No, I'm not. I was contemplating on trying, but I wasn't willing to import 1GB+ of data that would probably just end in another crash.
I just want to point out that I was experiencing this menu crash well before I tried adding any mods. After installing SaltySD via Smash-Selector (and arranging my SD Card as detailed in the OP), I immediately tried launching my CIA of Smash 3DS (using an empty /saltysd/smash folder save for an empty desc.txt). Game crashed upon accessing the Main Menu.Mind sending me your mods? Ill see if anything crashes my game and try to possibly fix it too.
EXCELLENT! WOW!If a mod reads this, could you change the title of this thread to be [RELEASE] Smash-Selector
Now, before any one 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 witch to load your mods from.
The patching feature relies on luma3ds cfw in order to work. This eliminates the use of prebuild SaltySD update cias. 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.
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 you 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.
Here is another visual for good measueCode: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
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 external .code loading" is checked on.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
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.
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.
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.

Here's my saltysd folder. The current smash folder (which is actually smash2) contains Smash Bros. TURBO'D. The smash1 folder contains a sound subfolder with all of the default music except for Find Mii and Yoshi's Island. I plan to use this for my personal compilation. The smash3 folder contains a sound subfolder with just default music. I used this folder to see if loading default files would help (it didn't).
Deleted /luma/code-sections/ then tried reinstalling. Still crashes upon loading the Main Menu.Just tried smash turbo from your download and it works fine on my 3ds. Try deleting the folder /luma/code-sections/ and try updating saltysd
EDIT: Just tested the other two, and both seem to load past the title screen without crashing.
My best guess would be either an issue with RAM (ie, are you on an o3DS?), or you have some weird situation going with your stock update. It *has* to be on 1.1.6 if you're using the code.bins going around at the moment, shouldn't be any other version or already modified.Deleted /luma/code-sections/ then tried reinstalling.

I'm stunned as to how nothing is apparently working. Maybe it's a system-specific thing?

Yes, it does. Here's my original post where I detailed some other information.Does it work without saltySD?
So far what I've tried:I'm probably being dumb and forgetting something really obvious...
I'm having trouble getting to the Main Menu of my CIA version of Smash 3DS. (Ripped from a USA Game Cartridge that I have since lost)
When I launch Smash, it will boot normally and reach the title screen. I can tell SaltySD was properly installed because I can see my installed mods if I let the screen idle until it gets to the part where it plays a sample match with 4 players. However, when I press a button to advance past the title screen, the loading icon will play for a brief second, freeze, then close the game and restart my system with the usual "An error has occurred, forcing the software to close. The system will now restart" error. This happens even if I load a "modded" version where I add nothing to the game ( \saltysd\smash\ folder is empty save for the desc.txt file) However, if I boot my game as default Smash ("Press X to select trash 4"), it will load into the main menu and allow me to play normally.

What could be the issue here?
