Recently i got interested in getting Brawl Minus 4.2 into a DVD, but sadly BrawlEx only tries to load from a SD Card, thus making ISO building with it impossible.
So i have tried a few ways of getting it to work and i will continue updating this post with my findings.
Configuring each slot in the bx_fighter.rel
Status: Works, needs documentation.
Notes: Confirmed to work as long as you can
find the proper values to set up, and perhaps set
up some written-up table for every Fighter ID.
Manually configuring the slots via RAM edits
Status: Very likely to work
Notes: While fairly easy, it isn't very
user friendly. I still need to know
a formula to get to each slot.
Making BrawlEx read from DVD
Status: Could work
Notes: Even though PW already tried this and failed,
that doesn't necessarily mean it's impossible.
A config loader rewrite should fix this, but i'm not
good enough at ASM to make it happen.
Using Dantarion's Clone Engine
Status: Unknown
Notes: Has not been tested, but the codes look
unfinished anyways, and even if they worked i
doubt they are compatible with the extra ExSlots.
Using BrawlEx 1.1.3.1
Status: Not Working, might need more investigation
Notes: Despite working fine on Dolphin, all that happens
on real console is a black screen, or rarely a strap screen crash.
I do have reports of it working with Riivolution, so maybe the
ISO builder is not doing stuff correctly.
That's all i got for now, if you have a formula on how to get to each character slot offset, please let me know.
