Voila.
You must be missing a step somewhere . . . Just using the picture you supplied, I was able to get it down.
COULD be the hex editor you're using, but we'll get to that.
I'll just cover the steps that might have caused problems:
When you edited the texture in Photoshop...
~When you replaced Falco's CSP (I'll assume the Red one), did you Index it correctly? (256 colors; sometimes the colors go down automatically once you Index it, which is OK.)
~Once you Indexed it, did you Save it correctly?
~When you Saved it, did you overwrite the original red Falco tex#00_09+2.tga file?
~When you closed out Photoshop and you overwrote the original .tga file, did you ignore the "Save changes?" box and press "No"? (If you go in and edit the CSP later, making it Indexed after editing, you do not need to go through this process.)
Now I suppose the other question left is, What Hex Editor are you using?
~~~So you can see it for yourself, HERE ARE THE FILES I used when I did the process. Look through 'em, see what you MIGHT have missed, check to see in the MnSlChr.usd file how it might be pasted, and all that goodness.
*AH. Something I MIGHT have missed; whenever you are first INDEXING the file in Photoshop, your options need to look like this:
Image -> Mode -> Indexed Color...
[[INDEXED COLOR]] *box*
Palette: [This can either be] EXACT [or] Local (Perceptual)
Colors: [In the case of CSPs, this can be] 256 [colors, or below]
Forced: None
[ ] Transparency (do NOT check)
[[OPTIONS]]
Matte: None
Dither: None
Amount: ___ % (nothing)
[ ] Preserve Exact Colors (do NOT check)
...Piece o' cake.
Oh my.....
I'm sorry, I don't understand most of your questions... Yesterday was the first time I use Photoshop...
I don't know why, but I can't manage to save my .tga file with 32bits/pixel after making the "magenta background trick". Photoshop doesn't ask me...
Sorry, again..

well he asked what hex editor you used (hex workshop, hex editor NEO, or what?)
Did you index it as 256 colors?
Did you save it as a .TGA file in the correct location? It should be named the same as the original file you opened to edit.. you PROBABLY did this right, because you managed to change the CSP.. if you didn't, it would change at all.
Did you click "No" when closing Photoshop?

Oh, I tried editing a CSP.. but there's multiple 'fc 1f's in the tpl.. which do i change to 0000? all of them?

So I have to change all 3?
I still couldn't get it to work.. it makes the whole thing black

Well, with Blender, when importing the error I got was: "Python Error, check console". If your getting stuff on textures, then you need to disable that option, as there are no textures.
The only reason I'm so interested in this whole edge business, is because it will allow for easier model editing, and more detailed methods of texture hacking (for instance, you can't make Mewtwo or Jigglypuff have scales, because their skin is just a small, one colour square. With this, the locations each texture presides over can be altered, that is assuming I can figure out the whole UV map business).
^ That, would be...
Folder number two, "02ShoulderSilver" (improperly named, my bad).
However, the belt buckle's texture is a Ref file, meaning it's a reflective file. It's not like a texture that you can swap out and see as plainly as the logo on Falcon's back... it reflects, kind of like the Metal textures. Just something I thought I'd note.

Yeah, the Melee one. In Melee, they have a light shade of red/blue/yellow/green corresponding to your controller slot too, as well as the P1/P2/P3/P4.
I'm not really knowledgeable when it comes to textures hacking (I actually need this token image for another project), so is there anyone here who'd know where to find it ?

Smash Lord
well i've come to the conclusion that either GIMP doesn't index the file properly or the placements.txt is wrong :<
for the sandbag
ALSO you're supposed to copy from 20 to 210 (219, actually, the end of the line)?
i was just thinking about it.. and i thought it was after the first 4 lines?

So is anyone going to make a new more recent iso?
I'd give my friend the one I have but it was from forever ago and there is such cooler stuff now. D:

got it to work.. i guess that GIMP indexes it differently, because I took the same image that was edited in GIMP and indexed it in photoshop and it worked
All you need to do is update your ISO, if you still have it on your computer. (If you don't, you need IMGBurn to rip it from the DVD.)
Then get a little program called GC-Tool, open your ISO with it, go over to Stack Smash's STUFFZ section and get some of the stuff I've been releasing (or browse through this topic for one or two things people have been releasing themselves), and replace the appropriate files in the ISO.

lol i suck at this
i tried making a CSP for the 'dark fox'
this was the result:
original:
It looks like i somehow put the transparency on the wrong area, somehow..
Everything else I tried just came out as a black image so I moved the hex data a bit off course and it at least gave me the outline.. i just ran it again and it's transparent.. not orange like it looks in the picture, idk why..
also i made my evil sandbag: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9JE1UBXW
click the image for download^

lool yeah i guess it only happens to COOL PEOPLE
Anyway, in a few of the texture packs the TCS files are a bit wrong.. it has the full directory like C:\Users\Joshua\Desktop\SsLa-DarkS\
This obviously isn't going to be the same location for everyone (I'm guessing that's S.'s place where the TGA files are stored..) so I made a batch file to fix it.. and it actually worked!
For some reason MegaUpload was being gay so download it at http://www.mediafire.com/?z0zy5zzizik

EDIT: I made a PHAZON SUIT SAMUS from MP1!
It needs a bit of touching up, but:
I was basing it on this:

More of a personal texture hack, but I'm sure other people hated those stupid doctor tools. And yes, he does look pretty stupid when he does his victory pose.

I'm hoping I didn't get a bad ISO or something

D: why is using texture hack and burning to iso sooo complicated D:
precompiled iso > all
im ********.
keep up the work broskis.

Sure go ahead; the reason they have that weird colouring is due to the fact that they were my first _9 hack, and I thought that I had to stick to the colours that were provided in the .tga.

All right... I've been thinking of making a texture hacking video or two, mostly in regards on how to mess around with +1 and +2 textures (the _8 and _9 ones). Probably be of rather crappy quality, though.
Just for some input, who or what should I use for examples in the video? Just so I know where to start.

You should do one on CSPs..
I don't think anyone else has been able to do them ;x

I'd like the video of hacking things.
Maybe it doesn't have to just stick to one thing and it can go from texture hacking, possible stage hacking, and CSP =D

@Zyx: I believe Peach's turnips would be located in PlPe.dat, not any of her color files (i.e. any of the Peach files ending with Wh, Nr, Ye, etc.).
On a side note... finally got the CSP video tutorial up!
Hope this helps out some people, and answers one or two questions regarding it. I've always been more of a visual learner myself...
*Note that I uploaded it at around... 09:12am EST, so the video MAY still be processing. Give it a good 10 minutes, half-an-hour tops, then see if it looks a bit more cleaned up.
