What's the difference between PCS and PAC files for character textures?

if you want the geek explanation, a .pcs is an image stored file while a .pac is a STAD image file with pathing instruction. basically, pcs is a picture file and a .pac is the instructions for how the image will be loaded, aka it's path. characters that transform need the pac's because the codes are inserted once then never loaded again and so the wii loads the texture hacks once. for the game to run smoothly, i believe it loads transforming characters while you change, and the pac file simply tells the game where to look for the texture. pac's r bigger because they contain not just the pathing code, but also the picture.

but i might b wrong here

You are wrong. .pac files for character textures are used for certain characters who have transformations, such as Samus, Wario, Bowser, etc.

I have no idea what they actually do, but I am 99% sure that you are incorrect. No offence or anything.

I'm sorry if this has already been covered btw.

I have tried every version of the "Save Replays over three minutes" code I can find and every single version changes my replays into a mario FFA on battle field that freezes when I try to watch it. Any suggestions?

RSBE01 codes that I have tried:
040EB804 60000000,

040E5DE8 60000000
04953184 60000000
04953224 60000000,

and several others...

Note: If it matters, I am using those codes at the same time as the "Save tags in Replays" code.

Ok so I spent pretty much most of the day hunting down this Custom Stage Select Screen code, and I'm kind of confused about some parts of it, because where I got it from, didn't really explain it/left parts out.

So I think I've pretty much figured out that the ZZZZZZZZ lines are for example, 0B0B1E18 if I wanted Norfair and Skyworld next to each other since it goes Level ID then Icon ID.

But what I don't get is what the bolded lines are for (WW, VVVVVVVV, NN, MMMMMMMM, YY and ZZZZZZZZ since bold is completely clear):

Could someone help me and clarify this, or link me to where the original explanation of the code is?

I'll ask again, even though there seems to be no one good at coding here, how do I use this code?

 

[ChronoPenguin]

Is their a bomb jump code? I did a quick search and for whatever reason I could not find it.
Perhaps I did not try hard enough, but if anyone can find me a bomb jump code (Link's bomb will explode if he hits them), I would greatly appreciate it.

 

[jalued]

can i possibly have the code that orders all stages in terms of ligality? and it would be useful if i could get a guide that says how to change them around (since legality in brawl is different then brawl+)

thanks alot

 

[DeadX]

GSC for all players in which you can't move in hitstun. it'd be awesome for combos.

 

[TommyDerMeister]

I know, I wish someone who has worked that code would explain it. Is spunit262 still around?

 

[tsunami70875]

when i run CUPASH, it ignores all the character#_small_.tga files
i remember reading that i need more files besides just common5_en.pac in the needed file folder, am i mistaken? if i'm not, could someone redirect me to the files?

 

[DeadX]

i need help with the debug pause thing. i want to save a replay of me doing something that would look kind of like TAS, but when i look at the replay my characters don't do what i told them to. i know it is possible to do something like this, because i've seen it done before, so how do i save the replay?

 

[KuroKitt10]

I haven't been able to find something like this while searching the internet, so I thought I'd ask here. Are there any code sets which allow you to take screenshots of screen other than during play? In other words, something that I could take a screenshot of the menu with. Preferably it would just save it to the SD card - I want to be able to upload the image to a computer.

Thanks in advance.

Meow.

Help still badly wanted please!

 

[trojanpooh]

Is there a code out there that makes Mushroomy Kingdom always 1-1? If not, is there anyone willing to make it?

 

[Mecakoto]

Is there a code out there that makes Mushroomy Kingdom always 1-1? If not, is there anyone willing to make it?

I can't remember what button it is, but if you hold it before selecting the stage, you will either go to 1-1 or 1-2. It's button dependent. I'll try to look for it real quick.

If you want to force the game to choose the alternate version of the stage, hold down the R button (on the GameCube or Classic controllers) or the B button (on the Wii remote) while selecting Mushroomy Kingdom. After the match begins, you can release the button. If done properly, you will find yourself not in Mushroomy Kingdom, but in an entirely different stage.
Additionally, if you want the "1-1" version of the stage (the original version), hold down X or Y on the GameCube controller to force the game to choose it.

 

[yoshq]

Help still badly wanted please!

clear all the codes you don't need and use the newest version of replay code. if that doesn't work clear everything but replay code. if that doesn't work delete hbc and reinstall. if that doesn't work reformat sd card.

 

[patoons]

clear all the codes you don't need and use the newest version of replay code..

whats the newest version?

 

[yoshq]

whats the newest version?

the 1 line.

 

[patoons]

the 1 line.

i thought there was a newer one. you know, i find the 3 line works better for me, at least for saving wifi brawls. when i would save with the 1 line, sometimes the fight would just stop and the characters would stand still, animated, but 2x as fast.

I don't believe there is a code that can do that, but if you have wiird on your comp and a gecko usb, that can take a snap shot anywhere in the game(as well as other games)

That's because of FFAs. The replay has a limit no matter which version you go with. The 3 liner stops you from saving replays at a certain point and the 1 liner let's you save any length of a replay but, if it's FFAs or teams or items are on, it may cause problems.

 

[zCasanova]

Just hacked my Wii, solely for three textures, and I can't seem to find them anywhere.

#1- Melee Marth sword swipe, where the entire blade is shown during a swing, not just the tip of the arc.

#2- The Brawl+ shields, and also where to place these on the SD card?

#3- Red or green Lucario.

If this is the wrong place for this, I apologize, I've just been looking for over an hour to no avail.

 

[Sompurplequy700]

Can someone clarify .pac textures?

 

[trojanpooh]

I can't remember what button it is, but if you hold it before selecting the stage, you will either go to 1-1 or 1-2. It's button dependent. I'll try to look for it real quick.

Thanks, but this doesn't help when you pick random.

 

[SymphonicSage12]

Can someone clarify .pac textures?

pcs textures are loading right when brawl starts up through gecko, while pacs are loaded at the start of a match and mid-gameplay. so, for people with transformations (samus/zss, pokemon trainer and company, Zelda/Sheik, Wario, and Bowser) you need pac files for the textures to work with transformations.

 

[superyoshi888]

I don't feel like diggin through 71 pages of discussion, so I'll just ask it:

Is there a code that makes Kirby a certain ability permanently? Also, is there a code that let's me change the Final Cutter shockwave into another object, like a Star Rod shot?

 

[Richard7]

Can someone please link to me to a site that shows what each effect should be called? Because I wanna put on Pit's different colours for his arrows, but don't know what to name the files.

EDIT: Or if you know what to name Pit's arrow textures to, you can just tell me that.

 

[DarkPikmin]

Is it possible to make a code to have olimar pull more than 6 pikmin? 100 plz kthx

 

[tekkie]

Can the hits of attacks be texture hacked? (i.e. the slashes of Wolf's uair or fair, which I'm interested in.)

 

[Bakithi]

This was originally in another thread, but a couple guys got pissed, so I decided to post it here.

My friend, ShadowDragonG, or SD, recently got into Brawl+, and now he's having problems with his homebrew channel.

"I was playing Brawl+ last night, and after I got finished, I updated my Wii to v4.0U for the lulz, and then when I tried to play this morning, the homebrew channel wouldn't load."

So, we're puzzled as to what's wrong with his situation.

Can someone help him?

 

[illinialex24]

Wrong Q&A but the gestures good. Just remember to post in a thread.

Anyway, here's your issue. HBC beta 1 works for Wii versions 3.3 and below. Anything 3.4 or above doesn't work with HBC beta 1 because of a 3.4 fix for that version. However, it only took a slight fix and they made HBC beta 2, which works for any Wii version. You have HBC beta 1, you need to re-install Homebrew through bootmii and Bannerbomb, other than that keep your SD card the same (just rename your current private folder to something else so it doesn't interfere, when your done you can change it back) and after deleting the Homebrew channel, install Homebrew and your all good. Good day.

 

[bobson]

Are there any tables for text hacking available? I remember seeing a code which edited the item descriptions, but I don't have a USB Gecko or any knowledge as to where other text would be located.

Specifically, I'm looking into changing the names of music tracks.

 

[trojanpooh]

Anyone here have the txt for the latest official Brawl+ build (not the nightly)?

 

[illinialex24]

Ok cool, I don't check this one as much, but anyway, what your gonna do is download Brawl+ Tweaker. You don't need the keys if you just want the codes.

Go here:
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=222151

Anyway, just download that and when you extract it, go to BrawlPlusser 4.1 that folder and each of the .b+ files can be opened in Wordpad and so you can get the code for each one. Or you can use it to essentially choose which codes you want active when you export the .gct

And you need the SDKeys (come separately lol) for GCT to bin but maybe other things.

 

[patoons]

this is probably impossible, but it would be cool to have the announcer say "samus aran", "solid snake" etc.

 

[illinialex24]

We are trying to find a way to unpack sound stuff atm, its likely in there, its an ISO hack thing though.

 

[trojanpooh]

Thanks, it will be a bit of a pain but at least I get to modify it like in the past.

 

[illinialex24]

Thanks, it will be a bit of a pain but at least I get to modify it like in the past.

Yeah, you can make your own .txt file if you wish, although that might take a bit lol

 

[SuperFudgeChoco]

EDIT: Or if you know what to name Pit's arrow textures to, you can just tell me that.

just rename the .pac files to fitpit.pac and fitpitmotionetc.pac no numbers. Only downside to this is that the arrows change for ALL Pit colors.

 

[DtJ Glyphmoney]

I have a feeling that this has been brought up before, but is it possible to "play" as the bosses from this game?

I remember a friend of mine had an action replay back in the ol' melee days, and playing as giga bowser was pretty hardcore. I have a feeling that even if this is possible you'd end up having controls similar to master hand (you know, with the prescripted attacks that just target and enemy)

Sorry if this has been done, I honestly don't check in here very often or at all.

 

[superyoshi888]

I believe it is possible, but only on the stage the boss appears at. I think the bosses are linked to their stage.
