[Mewtwo_2000]

Alright, thanks. Also, do you know why the two models I added to my Starship stage don't want to be translated? They stay inside Mario's head, instead of being on each sides, scaled. Also, only one texture is showing, and it goes on all the body.

Send me the file, I'll take a quick look without using the wii. So you will test it after I make the changes xD

Sure, thanks. Also, I'm pretty sure it's something stupid I forgot to do, such as when I was wondering why my models were messed up in a stage, it was only because I had forgotten to rename their bones and put them all in the same animation.

[Mewtwo_2000]

This should be it

Not tested though.

You forgot giving an animation to the toads, and as the bones were the same as mario's that wasn't possible, so I renamed.

Also, you had a modeldata3. It will never load from a FD. I deleted it and ported the clouds2 to modeldata101, where clouds1 were. I included the animation for clouds2 in there too.

Also, you had some texture problems. Check this tutorial, and remember, when you have some palleted textures, you have to check everything, because they could be troublesome.

Thanks, also, the clouds DID appear when I added the toads. Explain this? XD.

You're my hero once again.

no, it's not a texture >.>

I haven't posted anything on here for a good while. Just want you let you guys know i've made a new recopilation video featuring the stage hacks of Melee and SSB64 stages you guys have made.

And i see a lot more is coming up so i might make a "Return of Melee and SSB64 Stages 2" xD

Keep up the great work!

more details plz?
Fixed it i'll upload it later though

 

[Mewtwo_2000]

Rule: Only the first model animation in a stage modeldata works.

Keep that in mind ^^U

 

[br3compactor]

^ That's an important tip! I think anyone who wants to start making complex 3D stages should be aware of that.

 

[FrozenHobo]

a lot of differences that can only be seen in-game. i'll post pics when i get back to my room later.

Need to add mountains to the BG and get rid of the fog.
Better or worse?

It would probably look better with mountains so I would give that a go. It looks like you could put more creativity into the stage after you finish adding mountains and getting rid of the fog. I don't know how I guess just be imaginative.

@BSZ Talking about that metal mario, look at what has been uploaded to vault today

What a coincidence xD

Hey I know this is gonna be pretty bad, but can someone test my Gamedan85 2d stage? It's not animated.... yet... here it is.

Im gonna get better.... It's my first stage so Im starting off small.

Not tested, just seen in brawlbox. The stage won't work properly, the texture has to be 1024x1024, or 512x512.... But not 1026x708.

Just make a quick resize. The shape comes with the model, not with the texture, so when it's applied to a rectangular model, it will be rectangular. Indeed, it will look the same in brawlbox, but it will be working fine in brawl.

Also, take a look to this tutorial

http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=9329.0

When you understand it, you should make the main texture to be not palleted (importing it as CMPR or something) and make the model not to look for a pallete. This will increase the number of colors you can use and it will look better.

Also, if in materials1 you make AsfSoldier.0's unknown8 and unknown9 values to be 1, the texture will be smoother, and this usually looks better too.

Ok I saw the tutorial and it makes sense to me. Thanks for the helpful tips and I'll resize it when I can.

 

[FrozenHobo]

BAM!!!

 

[Matteron]

BAM!!!

nice job, but wut's with the black stuff at the bottom, is it unfinished textures?

 

[FrozenHobo]

for now. the actual texture has i as empty, but it shows up as black. i'll fix it up before release. promise

 

[Revven]

Does Whispy work as it does on Green Greens?

 

[dirtboy345]

this almost always happens but it's too big

the final result will

this almost always happens but it's too big

actually, its not long enough.

[Fen__]

Your point? This is Brawl. Its physics are completely different.

 

[FrozenHobo]

its still a big ****ing stage.

 

[hero1771]

i love it how im gone for three days to wisconsin dells, and come back to see hard work.

keep it up, guys.

Was this supposed to be an answer to my post?

Just posted a pic for reference. Didn't say (type) a word.
And if I were to say, I'd say "the tree still looks a lot different from the original".

Also, kind of a harsh post, wasn't it?

 

[hotdogturtle]

Really? I thought it looked too small from the single picture he posted. Also, the top platform should be higher up.

 

[dirtboy345]

BAM!!!

at least in this picture it looks like fox is really small

 

[Eternal Yoshi]

Are you using Melee's scaling or the original's scaling of Dream Land 64?
In 64, it's not that big.

Edit: when it comes to blast zones anyway.

Still making progress.
I hope to have Crateria in a better state tomorrow.

Sorry if that's how it came across; it's not how I intended it. I thought you were posting it in response to the people immediately before (who were discussing scaling).

In regards to those who are discussing scaling, keep in mind that you can't scale a stage relative to any single character. The sizes of character relative to each other have changed, so that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

in 64 its longer. its more apparent when playing it.

as for the tree, its too tall right now, which is why it looks odd. this picture is just to show some progress on it. the finished version will look like it should.

 

[Mit]

Any chance the platform will be more round by release? D: Or are you sticking with the octagon? And any plans to maybe make a version with just an enlarged version of the regular Green Greens platform?

Juuuust wondering. Looks great so far. Tree looks nice when scaled, and I like that the rainbow is still featured.

 

[FrozenHobo]

the platforms are rounded, actually. the textures just make it hard to see. that will be fixed when mewtwo_2000 gets me the right ones.

 

[-BigSharkZ-]

Thanks Mewtwo, haha. I downloaded it, and I'm going to test to see if my stage works. (Edit: Wait, I thought it was a Mario texture o_o)

Also, EternalYoshi, may I suggest changing the textures (Resizing them) so they don't look so different? It looks odd the way it is. Nice job so far, though.

And FrozenHobo, may I suggest smaller, on both X and Z translations? Looks awesome, though.

Edit: The toads appeared, but the textures are still messed up. I'll look at your tutorial. o_o

 

[GameWatching]

don't worry FrozenHobo,

had already this kind of problem >.>

 

[toddtj]

Here's a preview of what I'm working on.

I like this a lot. I've always found it strange that Brawl has no stage- or any reference, really- to the Wii and Miis. This stage looks like something that could have actually been in the game, and I like that. I look forward to trying it out.

EDIT: Where did the circle platform come from?

 

[Mit]

Erm, sorry I mispoke. I meant the main, base platform. I looked very closely and was able to discern that your smaller platforms were in fact rounded and that's a nice touch.
