Official Melee Texture Hack Thread

[Malachi Allen]

Hi,

Been flipping through the 20xx hack pack page and noticed you can make custom skins, then I found my way here.

Looks like you guys have allot of cool skins, but not much in the way of Yoshi skin, but theirs is not much to work with anyway.
So I made a skin up real quick from that Yohsi's woolly world game.

Got a decent texture scale for the yarn, now I need to make the yarn texture repeatable. Then the colors need to be refined to a different shade's of green and red.

Also I can't seem to change the texture that goes on the white part of him as-well. There is also some blue leaking through from the same texture too.

That looks so sick!! Do you have a DL link? :D

 

[Soggymelons]

Soon, im just trying to figure out this hex stuff and fix these little problems. Its tricky tho :/

If I did it quick a dirty, I'd switch to the green Yoshi then call it quits. But I like how he looks normally, so i don't want to use his green skin lol

 

[Fakes]

Two random textures. I don't know what possessed me to make either of these, but figured I'd share.

Blaze Fox
(btw, the hands and boots are recycled from a Smash 4 Fox texture I scrapped. I have some more files done, or close to done.. I think just the jacket, if anybody wants me to finish that or if they want to work on it themselves let me know.)

Ok, I followed your guide Omnipotentspoon. I switched all the Color Hex Values to '000000' I eventually figured out that you needed to stick 'ff' on the end of each hex value for some reason. So '000000ff' I replaced all of the 3rd Column over, 4th Row down in each 'Material Color Node'

It made the yarn Yoshi look allot better actually, :D because yarn is not reflective surface in real life. lol It fixed some blue reflections but it didn't fix the main problem. :/

This Texture I believe is the problem,

But when I Replace it, Its not changing anything.

Here is what I would like to replace it with. I think this texture also controls his white chest and cheeks.
OmnipotentSpoon what are your thoughts on this problem? Im stumped at the moment. :\

Thanks OmnipotentSpoon for helping me out.

This looks awesome. In case you didn't know you can change the color inside of his jacket from orange to something else by going to offset 7C00 and changing the colors of the 4248 effect. Here's what it looks like with straight black

Hmm, if you post a zip file with the dat and texture's you're using I can look at it later

Oh cool I didn't know that! I have a hex editor, but I've just been doing what the melee toolkit limits me to. I was thinking about making the inside black, but I figured that some leather jackets have differently colored linings. I felt that it gave the skin some more color.
Maybe I'll change it to a more beige color. like 0xCEB28B
Thanks for your input!

That texture that isn't changin anything IS changing something.

That's the texture for when you're in the little eyeglass while you're offscreen.
This is usually the case for textures that are only 64x64 or 64x128 but you can still make out a majority of the character

Random Yoshi texture lol, got a request for this

Sorry for the double post but this is totally separate from that Yoshi skin,
Does anybody know what Kirby's blinking texture is? I'm running into this problem:

Left: Not Blinking Right: Mid-Blink

[Air Bair]

Could I request a Frieza skin from DBZ for Mewtwo? I feel like it's a pretty good idea, considering we have goku fox and SS Falco already

theres a Cooler skin for mewtwo already, if you havent seen it,

 

[SuperShus]

So I'm working on a Daisy skin, and when it comes to working on textures that the melee toolkit doesn't pickup, unfortunately Steelia did not include PlPeYe with the rest of the characters. Rather than giving up, or releasing a version of the skin where her eyes randomly change color, I'd like help figuring out how to replace those textures.
Does anyone know how the heck to do this without steelia's original textures and offsets?

 

[The Shadow]

I would use the other costume offsets, but i think Daisy uses a different model.

should be able to convert a png to tpl and find a match in .dat

 

[CeLL]

should be able to convert a png to tpl and find a match in .dat

Not with CMPRs though.

 

[SuperShus]

should be able to convert a png to tpl and find a match in .dat

So, just to be clear, the steps for this process are

1. Dump all of PlPeYe's textures with dolphin
2. Convert the PNGs dumped by Dolphin to TPLs with DRGN's TPL to PNG(and vice-versa) converter tool
3. Open the TPL in a hex editor and copy everything to the clipboard then control-f for that same texture in the PlPeYe.dat open in a hex editor?

Not with CMPRs though.

Sorry, I can't recall learning about CMPRs, can you elaborate on the complications with his suggestion a little?

Edit: Edit: removed because my question made no sense

When you convert the CMPR (_14) to a TPL, the actual contents will be nothing like what's actually in the DAT, because it's a compressed format, so if you want it to be the same, you'd have to use Nintendo's proprietary compression algorithm. We don't have that so the end result is different.

alright, thanks for the help

so it's textures that, when dumped by dolphin, have a filename that ends in _14?

so just, no one knows how to replace those? or we do but its not compressed when we replace it?

Hey what do you think about reuploading some of the really large picture files in a smaller res and on imgur so the thread doesnt take 5 min to load, I could scour the page for such pics and do that, also some of the color orders for characters aren't in order, I could also do that

It's very difficult to find them in a DAT manually like you can with other encodings, and Steelia's the only one who can really do it afaik. @ DRGN should be able to get them with DTW 3.0 though.

color order aren't important. if you wish to resize the images go right ahead

@ Hype Man
If you're offering then....
.

I have been hoping someone would make this skin for a while now, I personally think it looks awesome I think it matches the "Purple Sword Trail" better than this one. IMO

 

[Doq]

I thought we already have a Purple Marth?

 

[Mingo]

@ Doq we do, Im just personally not a huge fan of the Purple and gold or the purple and green.....nobody has to make it if nobody else wants it.

Alright so I'm thinking the main reason the thread takes so long to open is because it takes time to open each spoiler for each character, then click on 4+ more spoilers for each color, and there's like a half second delay for the spoiler animation to go, so like I'm thinking it would be better to have every character's costume under one spoiler. This would be troublesome for Fox/Falco/Falcon because they have the most, but it would otherwise save an incredible amount of time. It would be less troublesome for someone trying to find a specific color to scroll down a page or two, than to have the majority of the people who are looking through the whole thing to manually click each spoiler all the time (again it would reduce the time by 80%+). So do you wanna do that, I can bold/italicize/whatever the color names to make the separations distinct, and I'll also be doing the resizing and reordering of colors, and things that are left.

Alright so I made my way up the characters and when I got up to Fox I tallied 43 really large images, but I found it's really the smashboards pics that load slowly, as opposed to just the large imgur pics, but again the main issue is having to click every spoiler so, if we can get that, I'll work on reuploading smashboards pics to imgur, then maybe resizing everything if necessary, but really the only issue with this is if you enlarge the image, it will be too big to fit on most common resolutions, but otherwise large images aren't really the main problem

I don't really care about the loading of thread because typically when a person visits the mainpost they are there to get all the skins they want and then leave. Removing the spoilers would highly unorganize the thread so that isn't happening.
