Brawl Hacking Support Thread

[Bread]

I'm sorry, I'm still pretty new to hacking in Brawl but I have a question and I have already searched for an answer on many topics and websites.
Well, I use texture hacks for characters and stages and all of them work fine.
But there's just one problem:
The CSPs.
The texture packs I've downloaded contain something like CSPs, namely small portraits of each texture (i.e. character) which are located next to the percentage during the fight. Moreover, you can see these portraits after the battle.
Now all I want to know is how to get these little portraits on the character select screen.
Please note that I am from Europe, so I got the PAL version of Brawl.
Do I have to edit every single image myself (via CUPASH)? Can I even use the CSPs as a European?

PS: Beside common5.pac I have also tried sc_selcharacter_en.pac but it didn't work either.

i got balenced brawl, but i can't get this or any other character replacements like mewtwo to work either. here's a link to wisp, the one i've been trying to get. http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=245842&highlight=wisp
or do i have to use something other than bb?

my texture/moveset hacks don't work anymore i haven't been hacking for a while. i just started my wii with the right hacks on but my game froze after the announcer said "2", this happens everytime i start a match with gecko OS with hacks on :S i have file replacement code 2.1 (PAL) and put it into my codes folder. my gameconfig is fine and the pac's/pcs' are placed in the right folders (H:\private\Wii\app\RSBP\PF\Fighter\Ganon). i tried everything to fix it but with no results maybe it's because i updated my wii a while ago, but i used my NAND backup (system menu 3.2E) to get everything back. the weird thing is that my hacks worked fine before :S

thx if you can help me

Unrestricted pause camera

I have a problem getting nearly all codes working - I'm a PAL user with Wii 4.0e firmware.
Basically, I've got the latest codes (can post if you'd like to confirm) but only one is working. The one I wanted the least is the working code.

Infinite Jumps works great.
Unrestricted Camera..... Semi-bricks the Wii whenever I try to pause.
Texture File Replacement - Presents me with a black screen and a semi-bricked Wii after Gecko OS tells me it's loaded the codes.

I've named all textures correctly I believe (eg - FitLuigi01.pac). All except one have both .pac and .pcs files installed.

Anyone know what the problem could be? I can get more info for those that might be able to help. I'm mostly interested in the UC code overall to be honest. Any help would be much appreciated.

I think I can answer your problem...really I need to see what code you are using, but if it is not the code I show below, use this one.

Unrestricted pause camera [Link]
040A9444 4E800020
0410B500 38800001

It is NOT the original code. It works on mine and I have 4.1E firmware

There is also this one as well below that I slightly tweaked but not tested yet because the original wasn't working properly for me.

If this one doesn't work just use the smaller one, it should work.

EDIT: I tried the pause/game camera code (the larger one) and it doesn't work for me.

This is more of a general Wii hacking question, but is it possible to get Brawl+, or any homebrew thing, to work without an SD card stuck in your Wii all the time? I've only got one SD card, and I'd rather have it in my camera.

Not as far as I've ever heard. Seriously though, suck it up and spend the $6 on a new SD card.

Hey there, I've got a question about the True Item Mod (Item Switcher) by PW- is it possible to apply this to several items? It works when I use a single item switch, but when I try several items it spawns nothing in-game. It looks like an item spawned, but nothing pops up. I think it may have to do with the Z part in the code.

4A000000 8098D528
D2000000 0000000Z
2C0600XX 40820008
38C000YY 60000000
90DD08C0 00000000
(change XX to item replacing, change YY to item to replace with, change Z to # of items you want to have + 3)
so for 2 items you'd have:
4A000000 8098D528
D2000000 0000000Z
2C0600XX 40820008
38C000YY 60000000
2C0600XX 40820008
38C000YY 60000000
90DD08C0 00000000

It says to add 3 + # of items, but for one item it uses Z = 3, and I've tried Z = 4 and Z = 5 for two items and neither work. And I was just testing with regular items, not character-specific, pokemon, or AT's. Any ideas or something major I'm missing?

ok cool, now i put that where exactly? (im just gettin homebrew and just got the geiko running)

 

[Alphatron]

Has anyone else had issues with disappearing songs?

Ex: After using song cheats, song slots for stages would disappear. Final D is supposed to have 5 song slots. Instead, it now has 3.

This is happening on multiple stages. Help?

Google Reset my music codes. Can't post them since I'm on the wii.

 

[d13f00l]

If you need help on how to set up codes for brawl, go
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=225238

On your SD card, create RSBE01.txt in a folder called txtcodes
Paste the codes you want

Your txt file should look something like
RSBE01
Super Smash Bros Brawl(US)

Brawl hax

Code name
xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx

Code name 2
xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx

etc

Save the txt file, and use Cheatmanager on the wii or pc to convert the txt file to a gct file
Put the gct file in a "codes" directory on your SD card

Launch the game through Gecko OS

 

[d13f00l]

And now I have a question.

I'm using Gecko 1.9.2b
If I try and use the Hybrid Air Dodging code with any other code, the game crashes on startup. Works fine standalone.

Anyone get this code to work with other codes? What's your setup like?

Thanks in advance!

 

[O-Suchin]

So, let's say Sonic is "2B".

When swapping a texture, do I replace every pair of X's with 2B?

And what of the YYYYYYYY?

 

[∫unk]

im having this problem where i use the brawl+ css code

but when i load up the game it has that screen up except the 3 individual pokemon slots are replaced with "?"

and when i put my cursor over any of them the game freezes

does anyone know what the problem is?

im using
CSS Fixes for Samus/ZSS and Zelda/Shiek V2.1 [spunit262] (6 Lines)
Custom CSS V3 [spunit262] (18 lines)
Custom Random V1 [spunit262] (10 Lines)
Independent Pokemon Engine + no wreck My Music V2 [spunit262] (11 lines)

 

[UltiMario]

Try using the Giga and Co Fix as well, it might help.

Also, are those the ONLY codes? There are non-CSS codes that can cause that.

 

[Player-1]

How do I get banner bomb working and how do I get it so I can use the wii shop channel without updating my wii?

 

[JamesRaynor]

I keep getting:

Exception (DSI) occured!

<Gibberish codes>

STACK DUMP:
<Gibberish codes>

CODE DUMP:
<More Gibberish>



But all the codes I had used before worked fine but after I reset it stopped working and kept puking this up. Someone tell me what's going on?

 

[Zee-V70]

...Would someone mind helping me out? I just downloaded the PCS's and .pac's for a PSA, but I haven't seen any noticeable changes in the character it affects. I have these codes active:
File Replacement v1.3
Dynamic SD Loader
No Custom Stages (Fixes last of freezing)
"SD Files"
File Patch Code v3.5.1
Several CSS Codes

None of the other codes I have on my SD should affect this. Am I missing a code or file or something? Additionally, when doing it like this, it doesn't save the changes to My Music, for some odd reason.

 

[The Milk Monster]

Could someone possibly make me an RSBE with just the Infinite Replays and Tags in Replays code on it, and like, send it to me?

I'm hella' lazy and I want it.

How can I load homebrew without using a sensor bar ._.?

 

[Recoil]

How can I load homebrew without using a sensor bar ._.?

Use Preloader / BootMii to get to the HBC via GC controller.

Also, does anyone how to edit the name of the character under the percentage?

Like in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcIMw1W_Ckw ?

 

[Oni K4ge]

Can someone help me with those "Play as Alloy" Codes? I've got a problem...

Well, for the most part, everything works fine. Alloys load, no freezing, great. BUT... usually trying to attack at ALL will result in a T-Stance. This is extremely annoying, and I have no idea what could be causing it.

 

[Shiroyu]

Oooookay, third time's the charm.

Does anyone know how to change the "background" color of certain stages, like the blue sky/water in Rainbow Cruise? Like, if you zoom out really far in RC, you'll see that the entire stage is basically inside of a blue box. This is not a texture. So if anyone knows how to change the color of this, please tell me how to do so. I don't care if it's incredibly hard or time consuming, I just need to know how to do this.

 

[6HyPeR9]

Does anyone know where I can find the small csp images in a common5 via brawlbox?

 

[Xyless]

Is there an app that can run batch files? I've made some to quickly switch between Brawl, Brawl+, and pBrawl which would run perfectly if there were something on HBC, so I don't need a laptop to be the middleman. I haven't tried SD Explorer, but I assume it doesn't (and I don't know where it would be anyway).

 

[Isatis]

I might have seen a similar one [on a site I'm not allowed to say], but I can't remember where the download is...

 

[Destati]

First, I posted this file in another thread but the mod told me to made some changes and post here. So here it goes:

First of all, let me say I followed everything in this thread BY THE BOOK.

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=232455

There is NOTHING I overlooked I'm using the File Patch Code v3.5.1. I'm using Gecko OS 1.9. I'm also using a softmodded Wii with 4.0U firmware.

Its not the code thats not working. I tried adding it to my .gct file with Balanced Brawl. Textures aren't working. Tried it alone. Still not working. Tacked on the no tripping cheat. Not working, but tripping worked. I copied the cheat head to toe.

The folders are appropriately named. As are the files.

What am I doing wrong? I seriously have no idea what is up. Can somebody please help me?

Bionic Shadow told me "Make sure your SD card isn't labeled SDHC (e.g. over 3GB) as Brawl cannot read it."

Now, this is confusing. Balanced Brawl works with my Brawl and I'm using an SDHC card. Why wouldn't the textures work, and can I do something to make them work?

 

[Isatis]

It's because Homebrew has support to read SDHC since its manually coded, including for Gecko OS and HBC itself. (The Wii later added in SDHC in 4.0)

Since the game was made before the Wii included SDHC support, all there is is SD support and nothing else

 

[Destati]

No hacks out yet? maybe a cheat that enables SDHC support? ****it. Meh, thanks for your help at least.

 

[Alphatron]

No such hack will ever exist.

 

[Isatis]

Yeah, the core programming to read/write from the SD card is something that can't be done no matter how you try, it can't be patched from memory like Gecko OS does

 

[KayLo!]

Can't get my Bowser textures to work. ;-; Help?

I named the folder "koopa" and all my textures FitKoopaXX, so I think I'm doing it right..... all my other characters work. Bowser's the only one being difficult.

I load through Homebrew + Gecko. These're the codes I use:

You need Bowser's .pac files in order for his textures to work. So if you got FitKoopa00.pcs, you also need the .pac that accompanies that texture (which is named FitKoopa00.pac). If you do not have the .pac, the texture will not work.

BTW, you don't need 2.1a if you have 3.5.1.

 

[KayLo!]

I had the .pacs for all of his textures, and they still didn't work.

@Code stuff: Thanks.

EDIT: Just tried again, with .pcs AND .pac files for every Bowser texture, and none of them work.

Hey guys!

I just have a bit of a problem with my stage select screen.

Whenever I put my cursor over any stage icon, the game freezes, with a B note.
To fix this, I set up Random to FD (my main stage), and it loads, but I want to be able to pick other stages, too.

Oh, and just in case it's needed info, I'm currently using The basic brawlplussery codeset, with baby mario size mod code and melee wavedashing code.


(Oh, and the game runs fine w/e the SD card.)

Please help!

Is your card an SDHC (e.g. over 3GB)? That's the only problem I can come up with...

If it's 2GB or less, make sure the path to the textures are correct (XX=color, 00 being regular etc):
sd:\private\wii\app\RSBE\pf\fighter\koopa\FitKoopaXX.pac
sd:\private\wii\app\RSBE\pf\fighter\koopa\FitKoopaXX.pcs

No, it's a 2GB card.

And they're in the right folder..... like I said, every other character works. Bowser is the only one whose textures won't load.

Argh. I guess I'll have to live with default Bowser colors. -_- It's just really annoying that he's the only one who won't load his freaking textures. I've double checked everything (correct folders, card size, spelling, re-downloaded the files several times, tried with .pac files and without .pac files, even tried with/without Giga Bowser textures) a million times.

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

I'm struggling with editing characters... Is there a global maximum file size? Or at least a list of sizes I can follow?

 

[Airgemini]

I'm trying to get my textures through homebrew but everytime it keeps saying that there's no DVD.

For some reason my Wii reads all my other games fine but with Brawl I have to insert and reinsert the Brawl disk everytime I want to play for it to finally be read and played. It's really annoying. Is there anything I can do besides sending it back to Nintendo? D:
