look's like it's time for a techie to jump in...

well...
knowing what I know about computers...
speed has nothing to do with burning...
(the data is written on it the same as any other speed)
brand names don't have anything to do with it but support for different disk types...
(that doesn't matter in this case)

does the iso/gcm work in dolphin before you burn it??

Brand Names DO matter!

http://www.digitalfaq.com/reviews/dvd-media.htm

Thats the tier list for DVD-R Brands
I was talking in terms of the data on the disk...
(the format in other words (the notches burned in by the lazer))
it has to be the same for other drives to read (depending on the disk type)

brand names really only matter in terms of disk compatibility and speed
eg: some brands don't have support for RW disks (only R) :glare:

however...
IDK if all disks write in NTFS or FAT32...

that may be the prob...
(if the iso/gcm works in dolphin)


The world need a smash bros in 3DS with online mode!
am already working on it :D
(a computer game more-so (using Blender))

0.001% complete though :/
I'm deciphering the dat format so as to hopefully get the models...
^thanx to Revel's help :)

Disks don't use FAT32 or NTFS. They generally use ISO9660. But I would bet that GameCube games have their own filesystem.
thanx for clarification on that :)
and yea... they do...

but the loader loads that ISO9660 format for the games... (I think)
IDK... can you copy the iso/gcm from a disk you burn??
or is it burned on there to that specific gamecube format??

IDK what could be the problem besides the iso/gcm being glitched in the data

How do I get rid of music altogether on an ISO? Like for example if I wish break the targets to have no sound track what so ever?

just turn the music off in the game =.=

unless you only want music on like 1 stage

then just record a blank wav (remove the mic)
and put that over everything other than what you want to have music (converting of course)

there is an option to turn music off on the normal game...
No, I wish to make more room in the game memory. I wish to delete songs of things I will not be using so I can Cram larger songs in other stages.

Will that method reduce the space the music is consuming in the games bites?

In Sleepy's ISO, the "message" sound effect replaces a lot of songs in the game.
After you extract the ISO (so you have a Root folder) you can go in and find the songs, and replace them with the tiny-sized files.

Check the sixth part to Sleepy's hacking tutorial (which is actually some other guy and not Sleepy) and it'll explain how to replace files.

no


in order to make room just find the smallest hps file (in this case 75 kb), copy it, paste, rename it to the song you want to "delete", done.

you can reduce an hps to smaller than 75kb if you know the format :/

just make a valad header with no sound data (or a few bites if required)
then put that in the game

IDK the HPS format, so I can't really say too much :/

that kirby game is also using hps files, it's possible that it contains an even smaller hps file =P

not that it's needed though lol

not to mention if there is stages you won't ever play you can completly remove them, since the game only crashes if you try to load that particular stage/song

I downloaded some hps's from illusory labyrinth. Is it necessary to rebuild the iso with the 14min music shenanigans, or can I just replace them and profit? They seem to be the same filesize as the originals.

Hey, I'm working with a copy of SleepyK's ISO, and am trying to hack the opening movie. However, my .mth file is too large to replace his MvOpen.mth, which is less than 40MB in size. The original MvOpen.mth is over 100MB in size, so is there any convenient way to work that back in so I can replace it with my own? My other solution is to just decrease the quality of my own file to fit the lower size restriction, which is fine, but if I can get around that without too much trouble, it'd be preferable to have a higher quality version.

You need to finnick with the .mth to
1. be within 2mbs of the video your trying to replace once you have wiped the garbage bytes in the ISO.
2. be around somewhere within 60 seconds of length or about 3036 frames.

On other notes,
1. Both videos have awesome music.
2. Silence is a cool intro IMO. :p


Thanks Tcll.

but srsly though, Nube said he'd post the guide like, 8 days ago. :/

you can use GC tool to extract the ISO into a folder onto your computer and the replace the file manually. i believe that the movie has a set time in the games data however so even though yours is bigger, it will only run for the same amount of time as the original movie/sleepyk's. Also, you need to make sure that you replace the audio file that goes along with the movie as well since the sound the movie has isn't actually what you hear when watching it on the game

Yo, I've been testing Melee texture hacks on my Dolphin emu, but whenever I put cheats on like all characters, etc, it freezes up.

anyone have a fix?

The recent builds of dolphin have done that for some reason, if you want to use AR in Dolphin, I think you need one before the 2.0 series, or any of the builds.

If you just want to unlock all charecters, you could google "SSBM complete save file dolphin" or something like that and replace the memory card files, thats how I did it.
