Nah hexing isn't required, Vile did it for you. And yeah, it needs to be named exactly. If not, its easy to use hex to add it in.

I'm completely hex-illiterate

when I go to insert my 040.pac file for example into 003.pac using SSBBarc it just tells me the file size is too big, as it does for the default 040.pac texture- this isn't mentioned in any of the guides I use and the names match exactly (heck my texture should be smaller than the default)

so I use the -g Grow option, and I reextract 003.pac to double check and the 040.pac is back to default again ._.

so it looks like I'm going to have to hex it into 003- if you know of any guide on how to do this hexing thing I'd appreciate a link- I'm checking around the web now for a guide but if you have one you'd reccommend that'd help

 

[illinialex24]

What you can do is you can get a Hex editor (get HxD) (this is BASIC) and open both 003.pac and 040.pac (the original one) in a hex editor. Select much of the text in the 040.pac and use Ctrl+F to find it in the 003.pac. Find where the .pac starts there, and then simply get the new one, copy everything in the new 040.pac (all the values) and press Ctrl+B so it paste replaces over the old stuff. It should work.

That certainly was easier than a lot of the guides- I assume I can do the same process when inserting 003.pac into Common3_en.pac? or is that CMD territory?

EDIT: CMD worked just fine- thanks for your help! I'm enjoying beating the stuffing out of Mountain Dew Canbag :3



also any idea on how to fix "special items"? The ASHable versions are fine and dandy but I don't know how to set them back to the non-ashable edited version

If I change textures, would that screw up online play with other people that have this codeset?

No, but only you will see the textures.
EDIT: Ninja'd!

 

[codfish92]

i'm having an annoying problem. if i use a code in a situation where that couldn't exist in any way shape or form, like being an alloy on a non-battlefield stage, my name gets all jarbeled up and it's 3rd and 4th characters simply become solid black boxs. It annoys that i have to have a name for competitive play and a name for wtf play. is there a code that prevents this?

 

[Isoku]

This doesn't really have to do with the coding but I just got the official codeset of brawl+ working and noticed an increase in general menu lag/delay. I was wondering if this was normal? Going into different menus, starting/ending games, etc has gotten a bit longer...

 

[illinialex24]

I honestly have no idea, I haven't noticed anything but its like the File Replacement code that does this. It first sees if there is a file on the SD card and if there is, it loads it.

I just switched to a regular SD card and brawl + is now as smooth normal brawl

 

[Kei_Takaro]

Is there place where I can get the old codes?
Y'know the ones with 2 GCT Files?

 

[Captain Kwark]

I have a question about Sonic's texture. I'm making an white texture, but problem is it's pink in the game. How can I make his bodymask transparent?
I tried making it magenta and black, but it stays pink. How can I fix it?

 

[zipit]

Do anybody have the Brawl+ Codes for PAL?

Basically i cant seem to get textures working with my PAL GCT for brawl+(i simply guessed that they were included as they were for the NTSC pack) so i want to find the codes and combine them myself since i haven't found anyone else that did. Been looking for quite a while now without luck.

Could anyone help me out here? I simply want to be able to load textures while playing the awesomeness that is brawl+

 

[DeadX]

thought i might ask here.

5ive has this problem with a couple of BRSTMs i converted. he says about halfway through the song an annoying buzz sound replaces the song. i tried the song, i got through it with no buzz. any ideas?

 

[DarkPikmin]

I want to write a program similar to that music swap program that ZAC did. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get started?
Primarily: -what do i use to actually write the program?

Does the inclusion of the Custom CSS mess with replays to a non-hacked version of Brawl? Same goes with tags in replays and infinite replay time.

no so long as it doesn't have independent pokemon, warioman, gigabowser, and alloy options in the css. infinite replay and tags don't do anything either.

 

[kirbycpok]

i most likely ur my music is messed up. try going to my music and selecting the stage ur always trying to select. if it freezes, it means ur my music messed up. the quick fix is my music reset codes(happens to me a lot). if you go to my music and select the stage and it doesn't freeze, then i have no idea what is wrong.

Tell me this code plz!!

those are the my music reset codes for everystage(forgot the coder wasn't me who made them)

 

[Link_enfant]

Is the gameconfig.txt file really necessary for Brawl+ (4.1 or 4.2 nightly) to work ?
I ask this because it's not in the downloadable files on the Brawl+ website :x Thanks

 

[Strong Badam]

it's in the premade package I think
and yes, it is necessary.

 

[Rapax]

Ok, sorry if i 'm bothersome, but i want get it work.

So, i will tell it you step for step. Maybe it helps you to help me =)

Ok, so, i got the HBC from here and installed it. Fast, efficient, perfect. Now i have the HBC.

Then i downgraded my firmware from 4.1E to 3.2E...

Then i loaded the SSBB+ Datas from here. I opened HBC, started gecko and launched the game. But nothing happened. The only thing is that if i press start (in the fight), my game freezes, but no textures and no changes from vBrawl... =(

So i thought i look in the internet again in the hope to find anything. I loaded gecko 1.9.2, but it changed nothing. (You may should know that i also loaded some character- and stagetextures, but they were also not loaded)

Finally in all my desperation i loaded this PAL Version for SSBB+. But again, it didn't work.

So, i have now these files in my sd-card: (sorry for not having a picture to this, but to be honest i don't have any idea how to make a picture )

~private (this conatins rsbp, pf and such things)
~private 1
~private 2
~private 3
~private 4
~wad
~txtcodes
~data

-gameconfig
-codemanager
-installer
-gameconfig[1]
-comprehensive changelist[1]

~meta

-boot.elf
-codemanager (this is the programme)
-de.lng
-en.lng
-config
-boot.dol
-icon

In my "private/wii/app/rsbp/pf" file i made a file named "fighter" and one named "stage". They conatain the characters (in .../fighter/"charname") and stages (in .../stage/melee). And there are a few texture hacks, for example "STGBATTLEFIELD.PAC" or "FitMarth03.pcs".

But whenever i launch the game with gecko and come into the stage-selection, my game freezes...

My SD-Card is a "SanDisk UltraII 2.0GB".
My Firmware is now 3.2E (former 4.1E where it also didn't work).


So, i hope you guys can help me to find out what the problem is.

 

[SymphonicSage12]

Hmm, I would help you, but I have NO idea for PAL stuff.

 

[Rapax]

That makes me very sad =(
Why the hell must i live in europe? xD

 

[SymphonicSage12]

Yeah, but Europe's cool :D


I've wanted to go to Italy and France my entire life XD

Anyways, Cookiemonster might be able to help you.

 

[Rapax]

Hmm, thanks for the tip. I will write him/her a pm. =)

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

Weird bug here on Brawl+ codeset... The screen is shifted down a good distance and it's all in greyscale. What's up?

 

[SymphonicSage12]

that's something with your tv. no one else has that problem.

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

It is not the TV. It works fine until we start Brawl+.

 

[Revven]

It is not the TV. It works fine until we start Brawl+.

Then it's because you're PAL because nobody else has this problem. :|

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

I'm using an american Wii right now. And american codeset.

 

[SymphonicSage12]

wait, american wii and pal codes? wtf?

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

No....
What I did was this: hacked with bannerbomb, then downloaded the set from Brawlplus.net (the NSTC one) and put it on the card, launched through gecko, and got this.

 

[Revven]

Then I have no clue, I'm sorry you're having problems but I have never heard of this ever.

 

[VietGeek]

Mess with the Config Options in Gecko and try to force NTSC.

Also see if Gecko Hook Type to GC Pad fixes anything.

Other than that all OTHER options should say NO (other than SD Cheats, and maybe Bubbles =P).

Try that. o_O

 

[DarkPikmin]

I want to write a program similar to that music swap program that ZAC did. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get started?
Primarily: -what do i use to actually write the program?

How would I do this? Would I use C++? Wish me luck since no one wants to help me.

 

[codfish92]

c++ is most likely the easiest one to use.

 

[Alphatron]

I can't get ASH to work. I have Ntcompress and Texconv in the same folder as Step 1 and Step 2, but when I drag a pac into Step 1 it says that it can't find NTcompress. I'm trying to edit the motion files and unnumbered pac files.

 

[Stockfield]

Hey does anyone know or can give me a link to a thread that shows you how to hack your wii. I don't know how to and I really want to have some of this codes.

 

[smashbro29]

American wii but is it a pal tv? try to change the native resolution(whether it's ntsc or pal I just know thats not what it's called) on gecko's settings.
