Title: Possilble thought - Two textures in one slot?
Post by: Hakumen on July 02, 2009, 09:50:04 PM
I was wondering last night. You know how we're limited on character slots for textures, right? There are .pac, and .pcs files each having a texture. What if they weren't the same texture.

Like let's say for example, I have Das Donkey Tiim's Beltmonth Marth .pcs named to FitMarth04.pcs, and krlosf's Blood Knight .pac named to FitMarth04.pac. I know that the game loads .pcs files, but what I've noticed it that if you select a character quickly, along with a stage, the .pac loads instead of the .pcs. And on Wi-Fi, your opponent's character loads on .pac files if I heard correctly. I don't think this will work on certain characters since they need their .pac files.

So would it be possible to have two textures, sharing one slot? That is my question.

As you've noted: in quick-loading, pac is used --- otherwise pcs is (since pcs has to take extra time to be decompressed) If you can figure out how to swap which loads based on a button combo... sure that will work.

But that would probably require a PW level code maker --- have to essentially change the game's programming on what it loads / when.

I have already thought of this before. I think it could be useful for something sometime.

I think that would most likely freeze the game, since the textures/indexing are probably different.

I've just tested it last night. Works perfectly. Now all we need is a code like Picano mentioned.

Learn some more about things before you start saying [censored].


Also, i have done this with bowser. It works.
