Universal Brawl Builder v0.11b [synth/bic]
july 2015
_what?:
a robust, multi-platform mod builder for Super Smash Bros. Brawl written in python
_why?:
this is possibly an overbuilt solution to a problem that doesn't exist,
but it does bring (arguably) useful functionality that i hope someone might appreciate:
- multiplatform: windows, linux, mac os x
- verifies ISO before building
- patches brawl (rev 1 <==> rev 2) as needed
- verifies built ISO
- improved ease of defining new mods (see README-mods.txt)
_how?:
install python 2.7 (not 3.x): https://www.python.org/downloads/
- mac os x and many linux distributions have python already installed by default
- windows does not ship with python. i recommend 'customizing' the installation by
making sure to have the installer 'Register Extensions' and
'Add python.exe to Path' so that you can just double-click .py scripts
put your Brawl ISO in the root directory of the builder
run universal_brawl_builder.py by either:
- double-clicking the script
- windows: double-clicking windows_launcher.bat
- note that this will keep the output window open so that you can view errors etc.
- opening a terminal and running:
python /path/to/universal_brawl_builder.py
follow the prompts
