Textures now possible without ISO Hacking! (File Patch v3.5.1, fixes info.pac problem

[DarkPikmin]

Ive done everything in my power just to get a marth and ike skin. ;_;

now i have the RSBE01 file in the codes folder, homebrew and gecko OS are present on the wii,
and i have my textures under SDcard<private<wii<app<RSBE<pf<fighter<ike<and ichigov02.pac and .pcs. what have i done wrong? im abou to give up >__>

Everything is right except for the file name. It should be FitIke02.pac and .pcs
Did you read the first post? It will be on ike's green costume since you picked the 02 costume.

 

[Melfice z]

yes, but i didnt know that was relevant. ill fix that now.

 

[illinialex24]

Its a replacement code, when something is replacing another file, it has to be named exactly as i should be.

 

[God of Humility]

I'm just wondering, is it possible that the version of my system menu or the type of SD card I'm using are factors in the success of textures?

 

[Melfice z]

Something has to be amiss.. neither the marth or ike costume show up. am i supposed to just go into homebrew and launch the game via gecko OS? do i have to configure something there too?

Yes, and no. System menu should not matter unless you have a version so recent that it squashes the Homebrew, and you would know if the system menu were causing that. I'm still back at 3.4 or so.

The SD card type could matter, what kind are you using?

Something has to be amiss.. neither the marth or ike costume show up. am i supposed to just go into homebrew and launch the game via gecko OS? do i have to configure something there too?

Yes, you just go into the Homebrew Channel, launch GeckoOS, and launch the game without doing anything more and it should work.

For both of you, check to make sure you don't have a GameCube memory card in your Wii as that will prevent any codes from working.

If I go to a site that has BSTRMS up for download, do I simply download them and copy them to my SD card? I don't want to customize the songs myself I just want to download ones available...how would I do this?

Just rename them to the proper title and put them in the folder lol.

 

[God of Humility]

Well, I'm using a 4Gb SDHC card made by Lexar, is it incompatible with the textures?

Thanks for the help.

 

[illinialex24]

Yes it is, SDHC period doesn't work because Brawl doesn't recognize SDHC.

 

[Xiao-Xiao]

Uh i think I need to add a new codeset to play music because I'm not hearing any of the custom songs

 

[gHoStRoCk093]

thank bro. you helped me a lot with this code X-D

Hi.
I've done a video-tuto on "how to make your own songs and use them in brawl".
You can maybe add it in the first post?

You do know there are two programs that make it easier to make your own songs in Brawl, right? Plus Androu1 updated his tool.

 

[illinialex24]

Oh nice Androu updated his??

 

[GwJ]

What'd he change?

 

[Isatis]

He added in...

New version for my BRSTM making tool.

The only difference to the BRSTM making tool itself is the automatic length detection (thanks to Bionic Sonic).

The big new thing is the “add-on” tool, “BRSTM 2 SD” which makes the process of adding BRSTMs to the SD card much faster and easier. All you have to do is choose a stage, then a song of the stage, then the custom BRSTM (must be in the EditedSongs folder, BTW) you wanna use and then just type the drive letter for your SD card.

Reading all that took more time than putting like 5 songs into Brawl will when you use this new tool!!!!!!

It's actually been out for a few weeks if I'm reading right, I've been reading the StackSmash blog lol

[Melfice z]

Im about to give up ;_; can anyone tell me whats wrong w/ this layout?

Config.Dat (dat file)
Installer(text document)
Private (folder)<wii<app<RSBE<pf<fighter< ike, marth (seprate folders)
Boot.elf (elf file)
Apps (folder)<gecko191<boot.elf, icon, and meta
Codes(folder)<RSBE01.gct (text document)

sorry is this is hard to understand

note: when i open the "wii" folder, i see app, title, loc.bak and loc.dat.
the title folder then flows out like this: title<aktn<content.bin

 

[SymphonicSage12]

it should be called gameconfig.txt, not a config.dat. and it should be a text file


it's in the premade sd package

 

[illinialex24]

config.dat is another file, he doesnt have a gameconfig.txt

It belongs to another program I believe.

 

[Firus]

This is probably a stupid question, but I just thought I'd throw it out there anyways just in case I've missed something or other...

Is there any progress on adding songs to stages or anything? Or even removing an entire song off of one stage and moving it onto another, e.g. taking "Final Destination" off of Final Destination, leaving it with only "Credits (Super Smash Bros.)", "Opening (Super Smash Bros. Melee)", "Final Destination (Melee)", and "Giga Bowser (Melee)", and adding it to Skyworld so it keeps all of its tracks AND gains "Final Destination"?

In other words, any way to get more tracks on one stage, even if it involves detracting from the number of songs on another stage. I ask because there are some stages, like Skyworld, that I could put a LOT of songs on, but only have a few songs to replace for music hacking.

Hopefully that made some sense.

 

[hotdogturtle]

No, it's not possible to change the number of songs that play on each stage.

 

[Ratatat]

do you have the stage code for the online practice stage?

 

[illinialex24]

do you have the stage code for the online practice stage?

Its STGONLINE{Something, forgot it, think its TRAINING].pac

So I think its STGONLINETRAINING.pac

Using a regular list you should be able to find it like that.

 

[R.O.BUS Maximous]

ok thanks and by the way i logged in my bros by accident so thanks a bunch!

 

[illinialex24]

Glad to help (I think your responding to me lol)

 

[glasscitysd]

can anyone show me a way to get this to work through nero gamma back up launcher? i dont have the real copy of smash bros so cant use gecko anyhelp?

 

[illinialex24]

I believe neogamma comes with a built in Gecko OS 1.07. This is the only way you can use it with neogamma. 1.07 allows SD stuff and 256 lines, so you can use loaders to get Brawl+.

The alternate methods are using cIOScorp and then just using regular Gecko OS or using a USB Loader with 1.07 built in.

 

[God of Humility]

Ok, so I finally got my character textures to work because I changed my SD card. Thanks to everyone who helped. However, it seemed impossible that all would be all right and now my Wii freezes almost always before I even start the match (it never froze during a match, only in menus). Is it normal or do I have to empty my Wii/SD card?

Thanks

 

[Doval]

It's pretty awesome that this guide has been kept updated with recent improvements to the File Patch code, but you should probably update the link to the Code Manager. The guide links to v1.1 which doesn't allow more than 256 lines of code.

Link to v1.2: http://wiird.l0nk.org/dl/codemgr1.2.zip

 

[FPSDars]

Hey, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but none of the texture hacks I've downloaded are working. I have them all properly named and in their correct folders, and I'm using the latest Brawl+ code, which I assume includes the latest file patch. Brawl+ works fine, but texture hacks and even music hacks just outright refuse to work.

do you set it up the same as this guide to use neogama? what are loaders? brawl + must be the code idownloaded and made a gct. file im guessing?

also how do you install this cioscorp?

SDHC card, perhaps?

I'm gonna give you a generic guide because its a very broad subject.

Neogamma might have a feature in its options to use codes. This would be Gecko OS 1.07. If so, just put the codes in the regular location.

Remember, there is a 256 line limit. Therefore, you have to use loaders for this. Use a double .gct, with a Dynamic SD Loader for your codes .gct, and the Brawl+ one in the pf folder. Then there is snapshot, where you export a snapshot loader and make the code into a snapshot on your SD card.

cIOScorp has an installer and is a Homebrew app but is worse than Softcorp and allows you to play backups through Gecko OS regularly or through the disc channel if the update is patched.

Off to play tennis

Anyone here ever tried to hack Castle Siege? I've been getting freezes :/
Is there some kind of fix for it? Any help would be greatly appreciatted

 

[Lucas-Defender of Tazmily]

Aww man. Now something else I don't know.
What do you mean by code manager? Something like an action replay? Or something I have to download?

 

[Lucas-Defender of Tazmily]

Never mind, didn't know that the words "code manager" were links. lol XD

Yeah, it has an issue with ASH that deletes the first 5 characters, so simply re-add them and your good. (It might be it adds 5 characters so delete 5 lol)
