I am taking a break.

My computer is dying, and I'm becoming bored. Anyways, I have a few projects I want to finish, then I am probably gonna start working on REAL gamedev stuff instead of just Brawl Hacking. I was curious on what out of all my old stuff people wanted to be fixed. Heres my list so far is stuff to do when I get back.


  1. BCSM-GUI v2.0 based on BrawlBox's completely legal BRSTM encoder.(And with no volume bugs, and a online database of songs)
  2. Alternate Stage Loader 2.0 that loads the Stage Data from inside some other file instead of inside the code(Brawl+ GCT could then include the Alternate Stage Loader, and then people could just edit one file to edit the alternate stages)
  3. OpenSA2 with editing. MAYBE. I really want to finish this, but honestly, almost no one cares about it. Brawl Hacking is on a downward decline IMO.
  4. .....your idea here. I have to be forgetting something....
Anyways, post your ideas in this thread, keep them realistic, and I will consider doing them. Brawl+ people, don't worry, I'm still gonna work on Brawl+, just not as much XD

OpenSA with editing would be awesome. Seriously. It would be everything PSA is, plus a lot more, and less buggy (?) (opening PT/DDD, not giving file inflation errors, maybe better file size stuff). And then there's the articles... Please please please finish that. It would be awesome, and it would suck if you just quit before finishing it. :ohwell:

Sucks that you're gonna be gone, but oh well. Hope working on your own games works out well for ya.

Would the ASL 2.0 work over wifi, as in both people using the same codes and files get the same stage? Cause if there is a way to do that, it'd be amazing. But worry about that later, for now you have a break to be on.

Also, don't think that OpenSA2 with editing is not worth doing, it's not that Brawl Hacking is decreasing, it's just that the huge rush of people who started are gone, and the bandwagon people have been weeded out. I know I can't wait for OpenSA2 with editing.

I'm concurring with OpenSA2 being an incredibly useful tool.

I'm also really surprised you think Brawl hacking is on a decline; to me it feels like it's rapidly accelerating. I mean, we're this close to getting models from other games. *is pumped for Zero*

It's always good to take a break every now and again though. I'll just be lookin' forward to when ya get back.

You should change your statement about how no one cares about OpenSA2, almost everyone in this thread said they want it, and I've been waiting for it for quite a while ('cause PSA has to many bugs).

+1 to OpenSA2. There is literally not one Brawl hacker who doesn't want OpenSA2. :p

I know one thing everyone...or at least, people who keep asking me...is the Brawl Mod Launcher back in action with the File Patcher modified to load stuff in different directories. Would there be a way to remake this (with source) off of the 1.9.3.1 source?

With multiple projects...you can see where this is heading...lol

OpenSA2 sounds amazing. Article editing? Adding lines to subactions? If you think that no one cares about it then perhaps we should pester you more!

It's good to take a break every now and then. Hope your comp problems get worked out.

Brawl hacking ain't dead yet.

Dantarion, I think you'll find that once model and sound importing are working smoothly, custom characters are going to see a massive rise in popularity and quality, and OPSA2 will be a big part in how that rise fares.

Something to consider.

I've been wanting a heavily updated PSA or OpenSA forever. Don't think we don't want something because we're not complaining we have it. :p

I agree about OpenSA, everyone really wants it and we all are looking forward to progress on it and when it will become available.

The Brawl Hacking community is actually speeding up, especially with BrawlWall, OpenSA, and soon entirely new models, our dreams are coming true before our eyes.

Obligatory +1 for OpenSA2.

A new BCSM-GUI would be amazing :D
Where would you host the online database?

Take a break though if you want to.
There's no point in continuing if you don't enjoy it anymore.

Okay okay, OpenSA2 will be completed! SHEESH!
Haha, mission complete~ Will this include editing PSAs without dramatically increasing file sizes? It would help tremendously with editing the likes of ZSS, Samus, and Pit.

...What the hell is OpenSA? XD

Anyways, the BCSM and ASL thing sound rather awesome. It's be nice to have the volume problems fixed and to not have to edit the code everytime I add a new stage. :3

Has anything thought of a way to change Song ID yet? Like the WWR will play music from New Pork City or something? o.o

I love your BCSM GUI. An improved version would be amazing and I would love you even more. Alternate Stage Loader 2.0=great idea

And of course... OpenSA2. I won't rant about it because you already said you'd work on it.

We'll miss you, Dant! good luck with your other projects.

+1 OpenSA2
The BCSM-GUI v2 would be lovely if volume normalizing were a feature that could be turned on or off

Yes, we'll all miss you. Ty for the awesome stuff you've made.

Dant, it sucks to see you go. I don't really know what OpenSA is really used for, but it sounds important :p

I'd LOVE for you to create some sort of GUI for the Alternate Stage Loader. That thing still mystifies me. :( :( :( :( :( :(

Only thing I'm really interested in here is the clone engine and true model replacement, but last I heard other people were covering those.

One vote for OpenSA.

I have 2.

1. I want to be able to install the programs on my SD card so I can take it to my laptop where the magic happens as the laptop currently doesn't have a connection to go on so whatever I DL from another terminal has to go on the SD card to transfer.

2. To have openSA to open the common3.pac. Take your time with this and please make sure it's bug free.

I have just 2.

release another version of brawl mod launcher so I can carry around multiple GCT in the same SD and not have to go to a laptop to change <3

and uh, the stuff that you said you wanted to get done in your blog [Per Character Victory Themes and perhaps inf. replays? if not just getting that replay forcer code I had today to default to SD instead of wii/and or be able to toggle'd off discreetly]
