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

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

thats what i have been using i guess ill just have to wait till they make a new version.

What region is your Wii from? My Wii is North American (NTSC), and it works perfectly with Gecko OS 1.9.0.1.

So I should put the loader and the file replacer gct in the codes folder and B+ in the pf folder?

 

[~CPU~]

You have to have the loader code named RSBE01.gct in the codes folder, and in the pf folder you need the other code.

This is called a double .gct

For some reason, I have only gotten it to work with GeckOS 1.07 but since 1.9.0.1 allows 8000 lines, I honestly dont mind much

it doesnt work when i put the b+ hack in the codes folder and the other one in the pf folder only the one in the codes folder works

I can't get this to work using USB loaders. I've tried multiple loaders, and my SD card is set up perfectly. What Am I doing wrong?

Can someone show me a good guide to Character Portraits? ive been wanting to do it forever. I have tgas but idk what to do with them

 

[Chali]

This guide is kind of old, but it may help.

 

[BlargCow]

I don't understand how to do this. I have a brawl+ gct file called RSBE01. The textures are also called RSBE01. How do you have both Brawl+ and textures?

Yeah, I'm wondering the exact same thing if you can get both codesets to work.

Also, its not working for me. I've followed everything step by step but it still doesn't load my textures.

and when you say "FitCaptain01", where does the "Fit" come from?

app?

don't you mean the original folder - apps? or do you have to create a new folder called app?

 

[illinialex24]

app?

No you have to have that folder. It should be there normally. All Brawl games are stored there, you have both Title and app generally in that folder. Title is generally a channel, app deals with game data.

 

[Speller188]

Ah, ok. Thanks.

By the way, some character texture files I have downloaded include a TrueVision TGA image file along with the standard .pcs and .pac file.

Is this image file necessary? how so?

I deleted some before...

EDIT: The image file seems to have to do with the transparency of the character. Opening the file reveals the character surrounded by the standard "magenta" color used for transparencies.

But I'm unsure whether or not the file is used for reference or actual in-game data...

EDIT2:

I noticed.

Lucario
00-Original
01-Red
02-Green
04-Light Blue
05-White

3 was omitted. Intentionally?

 

[illinialex24]

No it is not necessary, to get these to work you have to output them through CSPTools which allows you to edit character images, for the character select screen, the finishing screen, and the results screen.

Thanks again.

I also asked another question. As for Lucario...?

Lucario

[illinialex24]

Yes. Not all numbers were used, likely because the game developers started and decided not to use that color.

 

[Morrigan]

Everyone should have had 6 alternates. sigh.

 

[Flan]

nvm my problem, I figured out that I spelled fighter without the "t". I feel like such an idiot. Thanks for the guide though, really helped me figure out what to do.

I downloaded the code manager but in the video it shows things to check in the box on the left, for me there is nothing there, what do I do?

Did you load a code list...?

Or add in the File Replacement Codes on the first page?

I don't think so, all I did was download the code manager the link in the OP gave me and opened it. What was I supposed to do?

There should be a place to copy and paste your codes.

Click Add New/Comment/Whatever, type in a name, copy and paste the code. Then click it to select that code.

I did that, but when I loaded the game it didn't load Brawl+ OR the texture codes, even though Gecko said applying codes.

Quick question regarding transformations. My red texture Zelda transforms perfectly into my red texture Sheik. My red texture sheik freezes the game when I try to transform with her. Whose PAC file do I fix? Sheik's or Zelda's?

Also, I can't get Bowser's textures to work at all. The file name IS FitKoopa0x.pcs, right?

I would think Zelda's. ....


My Samus transforms into regular Zamus, and I have no idea where to get the PAC files to get the transformation to work...

(It's the "terminator" Samus/Zamus ones)

Wouldn't mind some help :s

That one didn't come with a pac file, so you can either take a PAC/PCS from another samus/zss and set all your transformations to that, make a PAC file yourself, or just have them transform into their basic attire.

Put the pcs file through lz77ex, and rename the .pcs.out file to .pac.

DUDES, im having problems with the stage textures , I've made a folder for each stage, and properly named them, then, i got the texture for the stage i wanted (lets say BF) I put it in the folder and it was named STGBATTLEFIELD.pac. Is there something im doing wrong? Heres the adress thingy F:\private\wii\APP\RSBE\pf\Stage\melee\STGBATTLEFIELD.PAC

 

[Morrigan]

The guide is wrong/misleading. Brawl stages aren't supposed to be inside "melee" folder, just inside /stage/

The OP is just an extraction of a guide that used Green Greens as a reference. It's out of context.

Actually they are suppose to be in the Melee folder.

Mine is private/wii/app/RSBE/pf/Stage/Melee

I have 7 Brawl stages and 1 Melee stage in there and all of them work.

Are you sure you have all the codes on for the textures to work, Acedude55?

EDIT: I noticed you had a space in between "I" and "E" on STGBATTLEFI ELD.PAC. Maybe that's your problem?

 

[Christopher Rodriguez]

I've made a folder for each stage

Unless im reading this wrong, this is your problem. you DONT make a seperate folder for each stage, all .pacs for stages go inside the melee folder, all together.

You can get a program to turn PCS > PAC. If you don't feel like finding it, PM me and send the PCS and I'll convert and send it back... but it really is simple as dropping it into the .exe file.

I have a question of my own. I copied someone's CSS (character selection screen) code. You need to use the code manager to input the 6 codes. If I did this, would I need to readd the phantom wings code? So, there'd be a total of 7 codes.

Another question, if you have custom ZSS textures, can you use the R & L selection on samus to get to ZSS's texture? Someone else was having a problem and I haven't tested it. That's why I looked up the CSS, so that Samus and ZSS are split - thus their own textures would work.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yep, I do it all the time.

Where I am supposed to put the CSP? Do I just put them in the same folder as the .pcs or is there a different folder needed?

You need to store your CSPs onto common5.pac, which requires you to use CUPASH.

Why does none of my bowser textures work? The floder is named "koopa" and the files are named "FitKoopa**".

Bowser (Koopa) needs the .pac files in order to work.

Ok, I got a disk read error when I tried to load the title screen. I went into GeckoOS through Homebrew, and hit Launch game, and it crashes after it got to "Loading Title... Disc Read error". Is this a problem with my disk, or did I input something incorrectly?

 

[illinialex24]

Disk error. Do you ever have loading errors through the regular channel?
