Smash Mods RiiFS Server

Together with Bionic Sonic from Smash Mods RVLution is hosting the first Super Smash Bros. Brawl RiiFS server, complete with three major Brawl projects:

... with more projects and content scheduled to appear on the server in the future!

You can download the XML here.
Simply download the XML into your /riivolution folder on your SD card or USB drive (or over wifi even, on a local RiiFS server) and start Riivolution with Super Smash Bros. Brawl. You will have the option to select which game mod you wish to play, streamed over the internet live - you're always up to date.

NOTE: Those with slow internet connections will experience longer load times; it should not affect main gameplay. Users still have the option of downloading the projects individually for offline play.

So far, so good. This has become fairly popular, and even with these users, the speed is still sweet.

If you're looking for other stuff to add to the server, I put together a Stage Replacement Pack, which replaces every stage (well, except for two) with a hacked stage and gives most of them new music. It's a cool way to see what SSBB stage hackers have done.

The idea actually first stemmed from thinking about what could be done with Brawl over RiiFS - as in what didn't require any Ocarina codes, so it could coexist peacefully with Brawl+, BBrawl, Brawl-, etc. (There's a code in the OP that reorders the SSS, but since most Brawl modsets have their own custom SSS screens, this should be left out, as it isn't necessary.)
I also made a lower-quality sound pack (22050Hz music instead of 44100Hz), to accommodate slow Internet connections. The stage pack and both versions of the sound pack are available from that KC:MM thread.

The one hang-up is the custom SSS icons. I think Brawl modsets tend to have their own common5.pac files, which are where you have to put the icons for Riivolution to load them. I suppose the solution would be putting the Stage Replacement Pack XML after the other mods, so its common5 is loaded instead.

Does this work on PAL versions?

Edit:
Next time, I'll test it before asking.
I used a PAL version of SSBB with Brawl + and Brawl - (I prefer Brawl -) and I've noticed that you can't listen to the characters sounds.
I also know how to use Brawl - offline, or download from this server, because I don't like to wait
