ok.......i'm probably gonna sound stupid through some of this but i'll just go on, i recently had many, many attempts to try to use the texture hacks for SSBB, i should start by explaining what i've done so far, ok....i have the private folder....then made the wii folder, RSBE, pf, and fighter folders, i have the name of the character i wanna hack and i have it the way it's supposed to be, Sonic, then inside are the nessicary files FitSonic02 and all that, ok i got that, now i go get that one file replacement code, create it into the code manager program, export it as a GCT file into a codes folder in my SD card, then i go back to my Wii, start up Homebrew, go to Gecko 1.9.3, i made sure the cheats are on, i click launch game, it says that the codes were found and were applying, so when the game starts up i go to Sonic, go to color 02, pick the stage, it starts up and.....Sonic doesn't look any different, so is there something i'm doing wrong? or is there something i'm missing? by the way i've been using an HC SD card so is it possible that i might have the wrong type needed?
