Brawl Reskins: Custom Alt Colors (No burning needed)

[el_refugio]

New 2.0 version for ASH is ready!
Go and get it here!
http://www.elotrolado.net/hilo_dale-color-a-tu-smash-bros_1157762

New features:
Support for +1 and +2 textures
Rewrote the whole program, now it's faster and easier to use

 

[Steelia]

Awesome.
But... the readme doesn't seem to instruct on just how to mess with +2 and +1 textures (it doesn't make mention of it being an upgraded version).

Oh no!
I left the old readme too You must open readme.html.

Now that ASH is finished, I wanted to make a program to edit the CSP (Character Selection Portraits) easily, following the Syntax Error guide. Main problem is that the guide talks about common5_en.pac and my PAL doesn't have that file.
Anyone found that file in the PAL version? I could make a program for easy editing the CSP.

 

[Steelia]

Sweet stuff, ASH worked fine putting the stuff together.

Only slight problem, it was on Sonic. His +2 eye texture, does it have mipmaps? Whenever I zoom in and zoom out, it changes from the eye I want him to have (zoomed in) back to either its original colors or something entirely different (zoomed out). I'm not sure whether this is a problem with transparency or mipmaps...

 

[BossOfTheGame]

I believe common5.pac is what you are looking for. Its in partion2/system

I have the same problem as you, and no it is not in common5.pac. i checked.

Also the sonic textures they i make with this don't work?

 

[Malumvolo]

This still has the same problem. When I run the "create file" it still doesn't add the "23WolfPants" directory

I even re-extracted everything from the pac, made sure that I had the original texture file and put it in there, it still didn't detect that directory.

Is there a way I can manually make it add that directory?

 

[Drakar]

coool man!

love the lucario

 

[XeroForever]

I'm a member of ELITESMASHHACKERS, so I don't need an amateur progrme like this, however, I don't actually like ELITESMASHHACKERS, so I'm hoping STACKSMASH will ask me to join.

WoW, Nice try jerk face. BigSharkZ was the one who made ESH. If he wanted to join SS then he wouldn't of made ESH. ******* I swear!

 

[-BigSharkZ-]

Oh my god...el_refugio I'm sorry for what that ****** imposter said. I'm the real BigSharkZ and I really like your program. Please do not believe him >.<

I just made an account to say this.

I'll take a look at it. I did not add support for mipmaps in+1 and +2 textures because I didn't not find any texture wiht mipmaps, I'll fix that for next version. Thank you

That's very strange. It's working for me. I made a quick Wolf recolour and it worked. Are you typing YES for every texture? You must type YES only for the textures you modified.
Try to add ONLY a texture and it will work.Then rename _new.pac to wolf2.pac and try to re-extract again. Add another texture, create the PAC and rename it to wolf3.pac. Follow these steps until ASH can't extract your character, then you will find what texture is causing that. Post it here and I'll try to fix the bug.

is no one satisified by what nintendo has provided

 

[TK Wolf]

So, does anyone know where I could download edited characters? Are they posted anywhere? I see so many great ones in this thread and on stack smash and all over. I'd really like to use them...

 

[BossOfTheGame]

Kitty Corp's forums are the only place where people (like myself) make and release textures to the public that I know of. If there are anymore that I don't know of please tell me.

 

[Coins]

I realise my own textures that i've made, just send me an email at blue-hedgehog@hotmail.com amd asl for the texture that you want, i'll give it you
Bit i'll only give away textures that i have released on a site.

Dude, being able to easily edit the character portraits would be perfect! I highly look forward to that.

Oh and about my problems editing the wolf, I find that when I say no to all textures, it does make it to the very last texture that it wasnt detecting before. I think I will just try to re-extract it from the original .pac file and start over.

If you want to see the portraits modified with ASH then you must help me to find them in the PAL version!


For Wolf, try what I told you before. Insert only a texture, and make copies everytime you insert a new one. When ASH can't extract the latest Wolf copy then you will know what texture is causing to corrupt the file. Don't add that texture then.

 

[Dragonrage]

I don't have a PAL iso and since my Wii is in for repair I can't dump my copy of Brawl right now. Should get it back in a few day, though. I'll see if I can find something than.

Unfortunately I have the NTSC USA version of brawl, I wish I could be of help.

Oh, and I restarted my wolf texture. It worked. It must have been some mistake on my part.

In Case you're wondering, all of sonic's +2 textures have mipmaps (I think, at least most of them do).
In fact I've never done a +2 without mipmaps because Sonic is the only character I've hacked with +2 textures

Also, a few of Sonic's textures share pallets if that's of any interest to you.

 

[Malumvolo]

ASH 2.0 should get its own thread, it deserves it

 

[Blank Mauser]

I was wondering. How do you guys reburn your Brawl discs with new textures without going through tons of them? Are you not finalizing and reburning the iso or what?

 

[bambam95]

oppps didn't see Blank Mauser's post

 

[Steelia]

Eheh... Actually, once we burn a disc and make more textures, we have to burn yet another disc to test. As in, I make one texture one day, burn it to a disc, and test. Oop! Looks like I forgot to add another texture on that disc! Throw away that one, add the two textures to a new disc, test.
So, you're literally burning through a whole lot of discs doing this. @_@

I just use a DVD+RW, works fine and it's free

 

[Blank Mauser]

Well since I'm using a softmodded wii with backup loader I'm limited to DVD-R's as of now. =\

I think I'll probably wait on trying texture hacking until PW's loader works for SD cards.

I'm using a softmodded wii too and DVD+RWs work just fine

 

[Blank Mauser]

Hm weird I can't even run DVD+R backups.

Are you burning it a certain way? My DVD burner doesn't support bitsetting which is what most guides tell me to do with DVD+R's.

 

[moosehunter]

Yeah, you need to change the booktype (also known as bitsetting) to DVD-ROM
If you really want to, you can try updating your drive's firmware

My DVD-RW's don't seem to work. I burn the game the same I would with DVD-R's and it wont load on backup launcher.

Ehh, because you're using DVD-RW. Anything that doesn't have "DVD-R" on it as such won't work. RWs... just don't work. I wouldn't try any "+" DVDs, either. Strictly DVD-R, if possible.

 

[Coins]

Hey Mark, who made that Lulu Peach in the big picture of those textures?
If you know who made it i would like to speak to them and see whether i could get that texture.
As Lulu is my favourite character

Someone must upload these textures!!!

 

[Coins]

I already have an old snake texture.

Also i'm pretty sure i've found the CSP's on my PAL ISO.

There just normal brres format and they look exatcly the same as CSP's, i'm going to have a good at editing them and if they work i'll tell you the location.

I found them too and they were the Victory Portraits. I hope you found other ones and they are real!

About Lulu... I will tell him to go here and talk to you

Thanks, also where did you find yours? I found the INF ones.
Mine are called MenSelchrFaceB000.brres. So i think it means menu select.

 

[Pharrox]

I remember when ]EE[ was looking for these they asked me if I knew where they were. I did a little digging and found three different locations of the same pictures. NONE of them turned out to be the real character selection portaits. It was a little while after that for someone to find them on the NTSC disk, not quite sure who it was.

I'll do a little digging and see if I can find those old conversations. If the NTSC file is completely missing from the PAL disk, it's possible it uses one of the other places.

Mines are on common/char_bust_tex.
I made Mario fully transparent but it showed on the CSS. Then I won a game and it didn't show, so they are the Victory Portraits.

I don't think that's correct. I used to use +Rs and they worked fine, now I'm using +RWs and they work fine too... maybe it's the modchip...
