.rel trouble

[robosteven]

I don't understand. A while back I knew how to set up .rel files and replacing stages and stuff, but I guess I lost it. Anyway, here's the example that I have.

I have this Yoshi's Island (Brawl) stage I want to port over to Big Blue. I went to the Lakora.us site and got the st_dxbigblue.rel with Yoshi's Island (Brawl) over it, and but it in the module folder. Then I put the custome STGCRAYON.pac file in the stage/melee folder and renamed it to STGDXBIGBLUE.pac and tried selecting Big Blue in-game.

...It doesn't load. It doesn't crash either. It just. Doesn't. Load.

What did I do wrong?

You picked the two in the wrong order. Pick the Yoshi stage as the base REL, then port it to big blue. You should get a big blue rel, not a yoshi one.

That's what I'm doing though. I go to the Lakora site, put Yoshi's Island (Brawl) as the Base .REL, put Big Blue as the To Replace. It creates a st_dxbigblue.rel file and I put it in the module folder. Then I change the name of the custom stage that I already had and name it STGDXBIGBLUE.pac and it just...doesn't load.

Maybe perhaps the real base stage isn't yoshi's island brawl. Another error could possibly be that the stage is incompatible over big blue. I've experienced stages working over some slots but not others even with perfect rel porting.

I've done it before though, that's the weird part.

I'll try something else though. Thanks.
