I need help with them. Do I have to download something to open them? How do I put them in my SD card and what should the folders be named? Any information will be helpful. Thank you.
How do I get the new characters, as in the "costumes" from the old ones?

There are actually different pac files, and they don't all go in the same place. If you're referring to the movesets created by psa, they are put in x (sd root): private/wii/app/RSBE/pf/fighter/(character name)/fit(charactername).pac

Some of the character names are not what you would expect them to be, like koopa for bowser or purin for jigglypuff. I would recommend looking up a list. You need gct file that contains the file patch code from phantom wings in x: codes for anything to happen.

Also, I have no idea what you're asking with your last sentence but I hope I answered it. There are guides for this kind of stuff everywhere.

Well, that was helpful. What I would really appreciate is if someone would send me a folder with everything ready in it. Like the new custom characters already made. That would help because I would know where everything goes and it would take less time in getting more characters. Thank you.

wait, so you just do what you would usually do for textures, but you don't include the numbers for it to work?
Is the file patch code different to the texture one? and... I can't find any guides... haha... coz the moveset thing completely confused me, yes I'm a nOOb

You got it. If a texture is called FitSonic01.pcs for example, then you name it FitSonic.pac for his pac file and put it into his folder.

The two codes are different but they share the effect. The File Replacement 2.1 code is just for textures for characters and stages. The File Patch 3.5.1 does the same thing, but also lets you load custom music (.brstms) that you've made.
