Smash Bros Brawl crashing on my console

streetjss51 · Apr 15, 2023

So i just put Smash Bros Brawl (wbfs) in my hdd and tried to run it on my softmodded Wii through WiiFlow and USBLoaderGX, and it works well until the frame with Pikachu running in the intro, it also freezes after beating Master Hand and rolling the credits, i have other games like Super Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess, Kirby Return to Dreamland and they all works fine with the hdd, what could be the problem with Brawl?

Verify the hash of your game (wbfs files) in WiiBackupManager, it's under "tools", as they could be corrupt.

Yeah, had that problem too.
It's a bad dump, and I'm assuming you got your gamw from a certain lair?

Use the Archives instead!

The check failed with Brawl and passed with other games, looks like it's just a corrupted file then, thx!

Do the same thing again once you "acquire" the new wbfs files.

It's a website? Do you have a link to access it?

Don't ask as it's against the rules. And @JuanMena was just joking.

I'm having the same problem using WiiFlow where it crashes each time on the second cutscene of Subspace Emissary. Haven't found any other crash instances. I checked the SHA-1 hash and it was fine, but MD-5 wasn't so I grabbed a copy from a different source and both hash checks cleared, but the game still crashed at the exact same point.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Update, I tried SSE with USBLoaderGX and it worked, got past the cutscene, switched back to WiiFlow and now that's working too. I have no idea what changed.
