In Progress Stage Model Imports

Are you using your new program to do these imports?
And the stage looks amazing, Zankyou. It's too bad we can't get the animated color highlights but even without them it looks f**king awesome.
One question:
The white "shimmer" that outlines the back edge of the platforms. Is this accomplished via color nodes? Is there an easy way to remove it and make it not shine like the main platform? Just curious. I'm still clueless about the color node stuff, if that's still what we call it.
I'm so pumped to add this to the Hack Pack. Thanks so much.
Well yeah its probably not easily changeable. Easiest way would probably be to do it in brawlbox and then replace the color node. So it wouldnt be that hard.
Or its just a glitch and something went wrong for no reason like the black/red spots on hyrule temple.
And I have a few scripts to basically help with the copy/pasting, but its a long way away from a converter. The more I work on it the more I realize I might not actually understand the formats enough yet to make one. Still plowing through unknowns.

Ok, cool. Yeah I was just curious. The glimmer just looks a little out of place, and it might just be a bug like you stated. Watching a video of the stage on YouTube, it doesn't look like it is there.
But man, I can't stop looking at the stage. It's beautiful.

I'd personally go with Brinstar Depths...I think.
When you do stage shadows, do you still put the flag on every single material struct or do you pick and choose?

I normally add to everything since it's easier to go back instead of keeping track of all of the structures I'm doing at that point. I made most of the structures a long time ago so I don't remember if the platforms have different material structures than the main one, but i think I just realized the issue. Not that I could easily get around it. In fact it makes perfect sense now.

Awesome! So would you say this is your final version for now?
(aka, is it safe for me to take this and run with it?)
Do whatever your heart feels, Zankyou.
Should I?
I'm curious, do you think if you re-imported Return to Dream Land, that your problems with the leaves would still exist? I know you've learned a s**t ton since your very first stage import and also aren't doing everything off of a single bone struct anymore (or whatever that funky way you did it). I would love to see that one with color nodes too.
I think that the color structs being imported now would fix that issues. But we wont know until we try. The reason why Ive been putting off re-importing dreamland is because I never looked into how to get whispy to work. Itd look a lot better with color structs though. Youre not the only one hyped for it.
Lol, playing Kirby here will be fun.
This is such a weird stage. I should have an upload for it soon though.
Crouch OP!
Warning!
The above is now fixed in DTW 4.3+. If you're using an earlier version, you can import these modified copies instead:
GrTDk_MetaMine
GrTKp_Metroid_Labs
For MetaMine, I added 0xA bytes of zeroes to the end of the file and updated the header. For Metroid_Lab I added one byte, updated the header, and also added a fix that was preventing DTW from opening it.

I want to use this stage as GrZe.dat (Brinstar). What should I do?
Yeah, in terms of the end of the file. It shouldn't matter if the ISO is rebuilt with GCR, but it will cause a problem if DTW rebuilds with it. I'm going to include a fix for that with the next program update though.
I never noticed this problem before because my hacks that involved increasing the files size just happened to always be in multiples of 4 bytes. (Well, I mean, it wasn't a complete coincidence, just the nature of the hacks.)
Edit: BTW/FYI, this is fixed in DTW version 4.3+.

I was also hoping you could fix the link to PS2 if possible. If not then no worries, keep up the good work man!
Hyrule Castle (64) - replaces GrTPe.dat (Peach's Target Test stage)
Indigo Stadium - replaces GrPs (Pokemon Stadium)

@Rawkstar
I don't have the Yoshi's Story hack. Or the other variation of Pokemon Stadium, but Indigo Stadium looks like almost the same thing, but also includes the jumbotron display in the back.

Hey thanks for this! Sorry if this is a silly question, but the file you gave me is a .dat and the one in the 20XX pack is a .usd, so I'm not entirely sure how I'm supposed to make the transfer? Is there a guide on it anywhere?Hyrule Castle (64) - replaces GrTPe.dat (Peach's Target Test stage)

It's basically the same thing. USD is just an alternative extension that the game uses to load different files when the game is set to a different language, which is English in this case (so USD is probably just short for "US DAT").
Using GCR, you'll need to rebuild your ISO with the new file because it's a different size than the original (I believe there are instructions for this in the OP of the 20XX thread). If you use DTW, all you need to do is import the file over Pokemon Stadium, and it will rebuild the ISO for you.

Cool! Can you post the Battlefield one? I ended up finding the FD one in this thread somewhere.
Oh man didnt mean to be gone so long. Not exactly sure how this one gave me so much trouble though. Ill change the and probably add a background at some point.
snes - bttdk
I cant tell if the files are down because one drive links expire or because I used shortened links and it doesnt support that anymore.
Also to the people making request, it depends really.
This is also something thats been bothering me for a while. I cant figure out why imported stages are so much darker than they are in brawl. Even if you look at the imported character textures for characters they are incredibly dark.
It might be that the light comes from a different angle and or intensity. Would be nice to find a flag for that.

Can't wait till this one is done from Ed. Might warrant a reimport! All of his stages are amazing.
So close yet so far away.
It looks amazing. When hes done Ill see if I or someone else whos good with brawl box can make the earth/sun background static so it can be imported

Looking good, man! I've been looking forward to this one. There's also the "M" version of this stage, if you haven't seen it.So close yet so far away.
Also, is there any way you can make a version with a super plain flat background?
It shouldnt be too difficult that add a flat background. Sometimes the background doesnt render for some reason but usually this isnt the case. I was just going to make a model over and use the training stage background in case theres lag but this is a better idea.
