I'm here with my friends right now and we're trying to get 3.0 to work to no avail. When you press "Launch Game" it takes us to regular Brawl.
Does anyone know what the problem is? We named the SD Card Project M. We simply extracted nohomebrew.zip and put the contents on the SD Card.

I'm really liking Roy. Which is weird considering I didn't play much of him in melee.
Totally. I can't get over how good Roy's forward tilt looks. Or Charizard's seismic toss.

Okay I finally got the game running smooth. OpenGL is the only plugin that works without the annoying slowdown and stutter. it seems as if direct3d doesn't utilize my GPU or something. The sound is not popping or anything and the only thing left is getting the game to save.

Playing as mewtwo, seeing him fight brawl newcomers, it just feels right.
I missed him so much

Is there a way to use Project M without any of the custom stages? I generally prefer regular Brawl's stages to most of the pared down/more simplistic "tournament legal" stages in Project M 2.6, but I am interested in checking out 3.0 itself.
Going hackless method here. I haven't ever bothered customizing Brawl before, sorry if this is a noobish question!

I hate how they neutered a lot of levels myself, I'm with you there.
Yeah. What they did to the Kid Icarus and Sonic stages is just depressing.
Yessss, Sonic's new moves from Battle... so good.
Sonic himself is just so much more awesome here. Game & Watch seems mostly unchanged (which is great because this dude is a killa) and Toon Link's tweaks are also appreciated. This is a ton of fun already.

Holy I forgot this came out 
The biggest question though, is it finally PAL compatible? D:

Yeah, Green Hill Zone is the worst. I love the regular version of that stage but the Project M version is way too small.
Kind of a persistent issue with a lot of Project M's stages, really. Too small and not enough different terrain to mix things up. Seems like the Brawl stages are mostly just reskinned versions of Final Destination and Battlefield now, and then all that's left are the Melee and 64 stages.
That's not to take away from the insane attention to detail in this mod, of course, but yeah, I'd rather have the regular stages if possible.

This is probably silly of me to ask, but did you delete all the v2.6 stuff off your SD card first?
Since I usually use the installers to do all this stuff, I'm not exactly sure what I should be deleting.

I think it depends. I agree that Green Hill Zone is worse. But the change to Port Town (Grabbable platform) is really great, and I definitely prefer Castle Siege not having the inside portion with those statues. The new Norfair is way better than the old one. I feel the new Rumble Falls is much more fun than the super scrolling one from before as well.
Distant Planet I like both the new and old ones. I like Dracula's Castle, but I wish it didn't replace Luigi's Mansion. I also really miss Spear Pillar.
I think Metal Cavern is an absolute garbage stage. It's just there because it was that one stage we couldn't use in 64...but it just isn't fun to fight on. Far too tiny.
I like Skyloft though.
I also don't understand why some stages like Flat Zone 2 are still there over potentially something like Spear Pillar either.

I'm not sure what's going on. My private has the "pf" folder, and I threw in the cheats folder into codes. I try the same method for loading project m like I always have been,
homebrew -> gecko -> launch
Weird thing is, it'll load with the 2.6 cheat file, but not have all the characters. I feel like that mediafire thing gave me a fradulent .gct file for 3.0. With the 3.0 .gct file it'll just load Brawl -_-

Project M 3.0 doesn't work like past versions, it needs the Project M folder in the root of the SD card. The pf folder is not used as I can tell.
How come? That was one of the most glaring changes I saw that had no benefit, it seemed like an arbitrary cut that lowered the quality of the stage.

Samus has an amazing jab animation.
It's like she actually took up boxing or something.

For those having trouble
Make sure you back up everything and format the SD card, for some reason it doesn't work (for me at least unless you format and then extract onto the root)
-So back up
-Format
-Add all your old stuff except the new stuff that are now from the new PM extract, so you should not be getting any "would you like to replace existing file".

What about the folder before pf? Does it actually have to be RSBE -> projectm -> pf? Or RSBE -> pf?
Thanks, trying now.
projectm folder goes on the root of your SD Card -- the old file structure isn't used. And also make sure your SD Card is not named Project M at all.

I'm using 7-zip (not winrar) to un zip, but once you format the card put the. zip on it with 7-zip make sure you right click extract here and not extract file.
So should look like this when un zipped SD Card>project m and some other files
In Project m folder you will find pf

The statues stop moves, which is annoying. I like stage hazards for the most part but those just straight halt your attacks.

As in "Heathcliff"
They took Snake's Rocket Launcher out, and give him a shitty tranq gun. That was funny at first but now it's hurt when I had to reload.

Oh LOL, that explains it. Just got back from playing a lot of mewtwo... I love this.

Going from playing standard Brawl for days to Project M is super hard. All the characters fall like bricks, lol. And having to stand still to grab items is a pain.
Also, why don't Squirtle/Ivysaur/Charizard have Final Smashes?

They were apparently pushed back because they weren't finished in time.
