What dictates if a sound will be heard when the camera zooms out? For example I gave Sephiroth a voice in my brawlex build by using a boss sound bank. During his FS when the camera zooms out really far his voice can still be heard. But for other characters, like kid Buu, the camera zooms out only a little and nothing can be heard.

Ok im still having trouble with gfx porting(Amaterasu PSA). Using the porting method I've got most of the graphics to show up although some linger longer than they should(there is no terminate gfx in the psa) but its only for a short second or two so its no big deal. The problem is that her disc doesnt show up(air forward attack) and the flowers only show up if Peach is in play. I changed all the external gfx. The fies that control these missing gfx seem to be in the REFF and REFT files but when I imported them into the new ef file the gfx still didnt show up.

Ok I've started doing external gfx porting for ex characters by using the renaming method(rename the ef file and change the id calls in the psa). It usually works but with a couple character no gfx will load (Amaterasu and Saber). Does this mean I need to do porting the long way as in Nebulon's guide? Or is it pointless?

How do i change the Ef entry in PSA? Where it would say ef_link. I need to do this for a brawlex character. I know how to change the gfx id under subactions but I dont see anything for ef's. Doing this in brawlbox v0.67 and v0.68b causes a hard crash in game.

From my experience leaving .bak files in the fighter config will cause it to freeze at the strap loader screen. I usually delete them.

I just have one thing to say... use the spoiler tag.

Haha how do I do that?

Really? I've tried that before but the brawl characters didn't respond
Post Merge: July 16, 2014, 04:38:20 PMOh! And is there a clone SFX tutorial

Unfortunately no. However, Ive figured it out and I'm having great karma with brawl hacking(none of my test got the beep of death. Yay!) so I'll give you the run down here

Ok here we go. First of all keep a backup of a fresh sound brsrar just in case. ALWAYS TRY TO USE SMASH ATTACKS FIRST AS BRAWLBOX COULD CORRUPT THE MOVESET WITH TOO MUCH EDITING. If you have to use Brawlbox try to do everything in 1 save.

Sounds should be wav in mono with the same frequency. To check the frequency open up the brsar in brawlbox and export the sound you want to replace. All boss sounds seem to have the same frequency.

First find where you want to place the sound. So open the Brsar file in super sawndz. Scroll all the way down to the bottom to find the boss soundbanks. Lets say you choose Crazyhand. Here you find all of Crazyhands sounds. take note of the length of his sounds, the rule of thumb is to use sounds of the same length or shorter.

*SPECIAL NOTE* however, it seems to be size based so as long as the file size isn't bigger than the original it should still work. I say this because Crazyhand's last sound is 0:00. I replaced it with a sound that was 0:66 but the files size was still smaller than the original so it worked. Also some sounds have strange properties. For example, a placed a "handengeki" over one of Crazyhands sounds that sounded fine on the computer but in the the game it was all low tone and came out as "handengeki ki ki ki ki ki".

Ok back on track. Say you want to replace his first sound. Click on it and its info will show in Super sawndz. What you are looking for is the wav id. In this case it's 00. Go to the ID list link above and find Crazyhand. You willl find a list of his sounds. Next to snd_se_boss_Crazyhand_00 you will see 26BD. That is the sfx ID in hex.

If you are using Smash Attacks then just copy and paste(more detail later). However, If using Brawlbox you will need to convert to decimal. Use your computer calculator to do this. 26BD in decimal is 9917.

Obvious question:how do I know what replaces what? Open your character in brawlbox. Preview them then in the top left click load. Load the motion file. A list of all there action will come up. And I mean everything, from crouching to to final smashes. Use this to guide You in what sounds go where.

*SPECIAL NOTE* some characters may appear not to be using the correct moves. Whats really going on is that the move are using motions from existing animations. Example, Megaman Zero(not Zero) is like this. His FS is actually a light Item toss and a landing.

Ok so lets replace forward smash(usually AttackS4S).

Smash Attacks Version
Open up the .pac. Click on sub actions, change event list from main to sfx. Then change where it says 0 next to sub action until the animation tabs says AttackS4S.

You will either:

A. See Sound Effect with some numbers after it. If so click on it then click modify. under parameter left click on sound effect then under value to the right paste the hex number mentioned above(26BD). Save-Done.

B. See nothing. Click on add then modify. Click on change and change it to sound effect. Left click on it then click modify. under parameter left click on sound effect then under value to the right paste the hex number mentioned above(26BD). Save-Done.

Brawlbox Version
Open the .pac in v0.68b. Expand movedef, expand sections, expand data, find subactions and expand that. find AttackS4S expand it. Click on sfx and -you guessed it- EXPAND IT!.

You will either:

A. See sound effect. EXPAND IT! On the right where it says value paste the DECIMAL number(9917) here. Save-Done.

B. Not see sound effect or cant expand sfx. Click on sfx add, modify, change to sound effect. Expand sfx and find your newly made sound effect. The value will be 0. On the right where it says value paste the DECIMAL number(9917) here. Save-Done.

Opne the Brsar in in Super Sawndz and replace Crazyhands first sound with the one you made. De-expand it then click on the root of Crazyhands stuff(may or may not be necessary) and click create sound.

*Special Note* Super Sawndz has some kind of bug where the first time you create the sawnd file it does it incorrectly and the file ends up being double in size. This will freeze your game, so far just creating the sound again solves the problem.

After you create a correct sound rename it to the correct ID(Group Id in Super Swandz). In this case it is 329. Put that in your pf/sfx folder

Last but not least change the soundbank in the fighter config file to the boss soundbank(a bunch of 0s then 142 for Crazyhand).

Done you now have 1 custom sound in brawl for an ex charcater. Take note that more than voices need to be replaced. Things like foot steps  and sword swings do as well. Use common sounds which can be found in the brsrar under SE/common. You can also use item sounds, my zero use the beam blade item for his swings.

Hit sound are usually universal but some are specific(Ikes hard hit sound). This is located under flags. In brawlbox under sub actions go to an action click on main then offensive collision then click on flags. You will see sound on the right with other info. For Ike it may say HugeSlam. This is specific to Ike so once you change the soundbank this sound effect will only register if Ike is in the match. To remedy this just change it to one that is universal like StrongSlash. IDK how to do this in PSA yet.

This is a lot of work but trust me characters with their own voices is incredibly cool. Hearing "GENMU ZERO" is great. Happy hacking.

OK Got a few advanced questions.

1. If I choose not to use the Alloys can I add more ex characters in their spot? Im currently at about 70s in the CSSroster so I have more space. So it would be fighter 64, slot 64 etc. Does the code allow this? Or say I take a Marth clone's config files and rename them to the Alloy's vallues would that work? Or are those spots only dedicated to Alloys and are unable to be replaced with ex characters.

2. I read a post awhile back that if you use the unstable build with the stable build's version of bx_fighter you won't run in to the unstable build issues(Ganon clones, Sonic clones uising FS). Is this true?

Hey guys I'm having some trouble replacing Olimar's sfx in smashbros_sound.brsar. I have tried 4 different versions of brawlbox(including this one). It either crashes or replaces multiple sounds instead of just 1. I am using this file:

http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=28732

When I try to replace Olimar's "Attack 1" wave file with the wav included in the download it also replaces "Attack 2-7", among others, with the same sound. How can I make it so brawlbox only replaces one sound so the sfx works as it does in the video? I have already PMed the developer and he was unable to help me.

Thanks alot guys.

Thanks finally got it working. One more question, how do I find the boss soundbank number for the fighter config file? I've googled around with no luck. For example I have Tabuu as a Ganondorf clone and rather than use the code, "Ganondorf has Tabuu's soundbank", I'd rather just direct the fighter config file to the soundbank. Just for clarification the number I am referring to should look like this: 0x00000001(This is Mario's soundbank).

After looking around for awhile I've found no clear answer so I'm just going to ask. I'm trying to give ex chracters custom sounds and for the most part I understand what to do. But information is very scarce or vague wen it comes to the smashbros_sound.brsar. Where do I put this file? Do I modify it directly or does it just need to be present(in a certain place) on the sd card with the sawnd file in the pf/sfx directory? Please be specific.

Ok Thanks. But now I have run into another issue I made the changes to the psa but when I save and re-open it I can no longer expand the moveset to get to the subaction scripts folder. The plus sign just disappears. I am using brawlbox v0.68b and trying to edit This Sephiroth: http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=16571

I have no idea of what is that, sorry. :/

Right below where you change the ID from Marth to 162 there is another number. Thats the EFLS Entry index. In Nebulon's guide some modifications were made to that number. Is that still necessary or will simply changing the ID's be sufficient to fix graphical glitches?

What about EFLS Entry indexes do I still need modifies those?
