Guide How to change Project M 3.6 CSPs, BSPs, RSPs and STOCK ICONS

[sinistersnakesennin]

Mewtwo2000 put me on to the problem with the stocks. They're controlled by a texture pattern and the one in info.pac doesnt have the extra slots in it. When I'm done adding them, I will create a thread that will hopefully fill everyone's needs.

I have been able to get cBliss, extra stages, ASL and Project M to all work together.

That's awesome! I'll keep an eye out for the thread, a template to work off of for full expansion (dong) would be perfect.

 

[sinistersnakesennin]

Its going to be a 34 stage expansion with cBliss, ASL enabled for most stages that allow it (Pictochat and Flat Zone 2 give me troubles )

Literally the only thing you will have to do in order to tailor it to your own build are:

1. Change the codeset (grab whichever of the stage expansions you need directly from the thread)
2. Swap stages and textures and watch the file limit for selchar/selmap.

That's LITERALLY it, I change nothing else from Project M (except Sonic's run traces)

Awesome. So for stock icons, it's literally just an extra new file to add for each icon in info.pac? Nothing in STGRESULT or StockFaceTex (or whatever that one was called)? And did you just use Mewtwo2000's cbliss tool?

I'm building it now, so far it seems like I'll upload two builds: One with my custom stuff in it, and another barebones kit you can load your project M stuff over. I'm going to try very hard to make the barebones kit something anyone with no hacking expertise can simply throw in and boot up

EDIT: My build is way too customized for people to just throw what they already have working into it and it to work, I'd have to rebuilt it all off of the default 3.6 gct, which would GAWD take forever! If anything, I'll provide a kit to make your build at least work like mine, which is to say, all character costumes are in numeric order, 00 to 09(10).

Oh that's awesome, instead of having random numbers skipped? Instead of derailing this thread further I'll wait until you post yours, but I'm definitely gonna be stealing some of that.

What's the sc_selectcharacter file size limit???

 

[KoE]

So.... Is there any reason why Diddy Kong has no brres file in Char_Bust_Tex folder? Does the game use his CSPs as his RSPs?

 

[Arcana~]

Trying to change some BPs but some like InfFace231-InfFace233 are nowhere to be found in the "portrite" file. What's that about?

EDIT: In fact it looks like the first few portraits for every character are absent from the "portrite" file. Yet they are in the game still..

 

[Argentic]

I used Cbliss to get 10 costumes per characters (9 for Bowser, G&W, Olimar and Roy) I added the needed files (CSP, stock, char_bust_tex, Giga Bowser, FitPeachEntry and all that stuff) but I have a problem when I load PM. After the load screen, the game freezes in a black screen. The size of my sc_selcharacter is 3,61 MB (3.698 KB) and I believe the file limit size is 3,79 MB. What should I do???? someone can help me with this trouble?

Btw, if you guys were wondering, in netplay version for 3.6 why the csp's aren't working, it's because the current netplay is still using common5.pac as the csp.
So in order to fix this, export char_bust_tex_lz77 in pf/menu2/sc_selcharacter.pac and replace it in the common5.pac in netplay

Or downgrade your version of the Brawl Costume Manager andd change the portraits with that.

 

[FireTails]

You're welcome :3
I still have to test whether the stocks work though

Wait, can u have a custom css and some stages and it will work on netplay if the other person doesn't have it?

 

[Kricardo1806]

what is goggle Pikachu's InFaceXXXnumber i cant find it?

 

[qwertz143]

what is goggle Pikachu's InFaceXXXnumber i cant find it?

It is InFace074. The easiest way is to copy InFace075 and rename it InFace074 and replace the image to the picture you want, it should work.

Can u answer my question

Stages no, Characters yes, as long as the textures are wifi safe. Well I guess it depends on each persons connection, but it works fine for me

 

[Dinowaffles]

Is there a way of changing the random csp by any chance?

 

[Amiiboshiibo]

I believe those are located in pf/menu2/mu_menumain.pac.

The only BPs in the folder are the ones added in Project M. Just like character costumes, since these are all seperate files, if one is not on the SD it will be loaded from the disc. If you need to change one, simply copy an existing one, rename it and replace the actual picture within.

Open the link, there are a few Bowser CSS (Included the ones you mentioned). Just download what you need, put them in your sc_selectcharacter.pac and done.

Like I mentioned in my tutorial

First download Brawlbox and go to projectm/pf/menu2/sc_selcharacter.pac

Here,expand the "ARC" file 2nd from the top named "sc_selcharacter_en".

Now expand the "ARC" file named "char_bust_tex_lz77".

Expand the "BRES" file that correspondes to the charcter you're looking to edit.

I have been having trouble with changing the stock icons. Every time I save it after changes, i get the message: "Unable to open file or write access." What do I do?

That means you have the file open in 2 places at once, so it wont let you change it.
For example, a file open in brawl box and costume manager at the same time

So brawlbox open only. correct? I had both open to view which is which...

right, just one program at a time, You cant access the same point from 2 different locations and try to change it, thats basic database design right there

 

[Nifubias]

What's the file size limit for info.pac?

 

[Brocolli123]

A bit of the problem changing BPs. Barely any of the .bress files I need are there. Only a few are. And the few that are are skins I haven't replaced. Only special ones like shinobi squirtle, commander lucas, the last few marth skins, etc. show up and not the ones I want to replace

 

[Brocolli123]

I see you're pretty devoted to kirby, but not devoted enough to stick with it in melee xd

Oh I think I mentioned it before but for the skins that haven't been changed project m has not duplicated it, so for whichever file you want to replace copy them from the Brawl Data Partition (https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B4vhNdf69qaSZ0N0MnBjOXFYMU0) and then you'll be able to replace things in it.

LOOL I just can't play competitive melee with kirby. Reaching top 8 itself with him is impossible.

Hi,

How can I change the emblem that appears behind the CSP on the character selection menu? As well as the emblem that appears behind the character's % in-game. (For example, changing a Kirby emblem to a Fire Emblem emblem.) Thanks in advance!
