Wanting to make a personalized mod, advice needed

[jacob91]

Hi everyone.

I'm hoping to get into the modding scene by making my own, quite bare mod pack.

All that I am looking to change from vanilla melee is: 1: Allow C-stick to function as it does in vs. mode in single player and 2: Allow item switch to apply to single player mode as well. I'd like to keep the original AI as well as avoid the issues that the 20xx hackpack seems to have when playing single player mode, such as freezes. If anything, having the L-cancel flash toggle active would be the only other thing I really want to make.

How hard would this be to make? Can anyone give me some advice / directions to accomplish this? Is it even possible? Any help is greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Can anyone point me towards the SSBM CODE TOOLS download? (The download link given here http://smashboards.com/threads/melee-gecko-codes-guide-and-discussion.327311/ seems to be dead)

Hey thank you. I was a bit confused for a minute but I think I figured it out. I altered the injection codes text file to include "Flash White on successful L-cancel", can anyone tell me why the following code I wrote doesn't seem to be working?

^I don't know if I interpreted that in the write syntax, can anyone help? Not very noob friendly to learn melee modding but I'm trying.. Also does anyone have any advice regarding how to disable items in single player mode?
