Japanese Hiragana in brawl

[Skadorski]

Hi, I just wanted to know if there's any way possible to get Japanese hiragana, like the original Japanese brawl, in English brawl.
I asked in the Q&A thread but the question wasn't answered.

Thanks.

There's a code that lets you change one of your registered names (in Brawl) to whatever you want. You can use it to set your name to Japanese katakana and hiragana. I think I found it on Gecko OS' website.

Okay, I found the code, which is

[B]Name Changer[/B]

4A000000 90172E20
16YYYYYY 0000000A
ZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZ
ZZZZ0000 00000000
E0000000 80008000

Each character is 2 bytes (4 hex digits), the encoding use is basically
the ASCII value + 0xFEE0, except that "space" is 3000.
Y is 0x0124*(name_number-1). The best way to determine the name_number is
at Data/Records/Group Records/pg. 4

I'm not sure what it means by "the ASCII value + 0xFEE0".

4A000000 90172E20
16020124 0000000A
[B]30A230DE 30FC30BF
30ED[/B]0000 00000000
E0000000 80008000

I tried this, filling in the Z's with the numbers I found on a ASCII chart, but nothing happened.
If anyone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for telling me a code existed!

You're currently trying to change the 450th name on your name list (I doubt you have that many names). The YYYYY values is 0x0124 (in hex) multiplied by the position of your name on the list, minus one. I think you didn't type the number in hex. Here's a simple conversion chart:

1 = 01
2 = 02
3 = 03
4 = 04
5 = 05
6 = 06
7 = 07
8 = 08
9 = 09
10 = 0A
11 = 0B
12 = 0C
13 = 0D
14 = 0E
15 = 0F
16 = 10

The "+FEE0" part is only if you're using English letters, because Brawl uses the fullwidth variation for these, and that's where they are in unicode.

Also, "30FC" doesn't seem to be a valid value, and I think you'll end up with an ugly block instead of a character that's usable. Your name would look like this:

アマ█タロ

I can help you get the correct values, if you like.

Does this mean... box tag in brawl? :o

 

[standardtoaster]

Box tag. ;D

The hiragana and katakana values I used were 306B30CB 30CB30B3. にニニコ

 

[Skadorski]

Yeah, I'm going to need help with this. I want to change my first name in the game to the katakana. I'll fix the box problem later, I just want to figure this out, thanks ^_^.

You can get the hiragana and katakana values from here.

 

[Skadorski]

Thank you, but my problem is the hex for the name part. I don't understand any of it
Edit: I got my first tag done by filling in the Y's with 000000, so for slot #2 it would be 000124 right?
Double Edit: I got it working, thanks guys! I think a guide should be made for this because I'm sure people would want to use kana in brawl.

 

[Mithost]

Box tag. ;D

Full code for this please? I cant seem to piece together the full code with it.

 

[standardtoaster]

You would just follow the instructions and use the code that was posted earlier. You'd put the values I posted in the ZZ portion.

The YYYYYY part and the ZZZZ under the actual text throws me off

16YYYYYY 0000000A
ZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZ
ZZZZ0000 00000000
E0000000 80008000

Each character is 2 bytes (4 hex digits), the encoding use is basically
the ASCII value + 0xFEE0, except that "space" is 3000.
Y is 0x0124*(name_number-1). The best way to determine the name_number is

YYYYYY is which name it's going to change. The first name in the list is 000000. The second name would be 000124. Third would be 000248. It goes from there. The ZZ values are the letters. Each ZZZZ is one letter. You can get the ZZZZ values from here. If you wanted the first letter to be T, it would be 0x53 + 0xFEE0, which is FF33. If you wanted to use a hiragana or katakana letter, you would scroll down to the section on that page that has those values. They start at around 3000. They do not follow the + 0xFEE0 rule.

For example, if you wanted the 8th name in your list to be the box tag, にニニコ, the values for ZZZZ you would use are 306B30CB 30CB30B3. Remember that the name you change is name number - 1. To get the YYYYYY value, you would do 0x7 * 0x124. You then get 0007FC for your YYYYYY value. The ZZZZ values would be 306B30CB 30CB30B3 0000. The code would then look like this:

4A000000 90172E20
160007FC 0000000A
306B30CB 30CB30B3
00000000 00000000
E0000000 80008000

Does this help?

 

[Mithost]

Does this help?

Yes. Thank you.

Could somebody code Kuroobi's tag for me? The one shown in this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kuq0rJBZgKw I'd do it myself, but I can't read hex values for crap.
