Ironically, I've actually tutored 3 people, including BlackKyurem, in model editing and importing, and all 3 of them seem to have talent

Another irony is that, after I'm finished with Project Wolf Link, I was actually going to see if I could get Blender working with Sm4sh, lol!

I know this has nothing to do with the thread, and apologies for that, but neither of those are irony.



I think things usually appear on google after enough traffic to it, so it's sort of a spiral there.

Also, do you know how I could get my tutorial to show up on Google? Because currently, even if I type into Google, "windhunter7 blender", my tutorial does NOT pop up at all. Because I think if this could actually be found via Google, it would get a lot more people seeing that Blender can be used, and then we'd get more traffic, and more people making model imports; I mean, if my tutorial has gotten over 1200 views, it'll probably get a lot more if it can actually be found, and I do want this forum to be more active; so do you know why it's not even appearing on Google? Is it because of the board it's on, or something like that? I figured, if you're a BV Staff, you might know.

I've seen a handful of new threads here and there (most of which have been asking for help), but all I'm mostly seeing existing threads being necro'd by people asking for help.

Despite this, I'm not saying there should be waves of new threads by people, as I'm sure that would drown out any new talents looking forward to build themselves up.

I don't think opening another option to import models is going to increase traffic that much. Though at least you're being optimistic about it. Because I'm sure even if you got like 3 people to create content, I'm sure your goals would be accomplished.

Like I previously mentioned, I feel the only possible way to drive traffic here would be for the Forum update to happen in a timely manner (look how lively the GameBanana section for Sm4sh is and compare it to how active KC-MM is). Why not see if you can get Blender DAEs working in Sm4sh after you've gotten them to work in Brawl? As I'm sure more people would use it for Sm4sh than they would for Brawl.

I beg to differ, as I have been seeing a lot of new topics where people are asking for tips on how to do something, as well as not all requests for helping someone to learn something are on the forums; I've had multiple people PM and/or email me that they want to learn how to do something; now granted, not quite as much activity on the forum as it used to be, but I'm hoping that that, as well as higher quality mods in the Vault, will pick up after I finish some of my tutorials, since it's now possible to mod by using Blender for models

The Vault may be getting constant uploads, but you have to look at the Forums and the community themselves. When I say that Brawl modding is "dying", I'm not talking about the Vault. KC-MM is barren and virtually lifeless, with the only section being regularly updated is the Off-Topic section (very rarely do you see any other section get updated). The Brawl modding section on SmashBoards is virtually dead (threads are only updated because there's only people asking for help). The "most active" section of Brawl modding would have to be the Project M modding section on SmashBoards, but even then, it's pretty barren.

Very rarely do you actually see something worthy of being called a "quality mod" published on the Vault, but this isn't anyone's fault. This was something the Vault's always faced (and there's nothing you can do about it without undermining what makes BrawlVault so popular: Its ability to let anyone submit anything, regardless of quality).

If I have to be perfectly honest here, all the mods you listed (except Ridley and maybe Legacy XP/TE) are flat out poorly made. Smash Infinite has got to be the worst example you picked. It's basically the "Meme Mod" for Youtubers to play and make fun of. If the "best" mods you can find recently are just these 7 (in which half of them are mod packs), then your argument just falls flat. Not to mention, you've only been here for about 2 years. You weren't really here when Brawl modding was at its peak (or you might have just been lurking, so who knows?).

Alongside this, virtually every "big name" in Brawl modding has either retired, moved onto Sm4sh modding, or just flat out disappeared. There may be some aspiring modders wanting to make a name for themselves, but I haven't seen anyone new really do anything noteworthy or eye-catching.

Don't let this discourage anyone though. You're more than free to try re-igniting the spark that set off Brawl modding several years ago.

The only thing that could really bring traffic back to this site is if/when the major Forum update happens, which could result in the Sm4sh modders from GameBanana possibly migrating to KC-MM, due to the Vault getting Sm4sh support.

(FYI, the Ridley PSA isn't mine. The one who made it was BaganSmashBros. My edits just fix bugs and overhaul the balancing, but even then, there's still more I need to do).

hi, i need some help about Super Sawndz.
For what strange reason, after i made a custom Bowser sawndz the game crashes everytime i enter into a brawl or i exit training mode.
All i did was replace two audio files and that's it, but 4 sfx folders were red.
it's that normal? Because Legacy XP also has those same 4 sfx folders red but the mod works.

I've heard lots of people say this site is "dead" because Sm4sh modding has become quite popular. But it still seems to be as active as ever. Sammi Husky is working on bringing more Exmodules for characters and fixing other ones. Modders have recently created and are working on more fantastic mods.

Calikingz01 recently made a Frieza PSA with good GFX, models, SFX, etc. and is currently working on a Vectorman PSA. KingJigglypuff made a remake of the PM Ridley PSA for vBrawl with the classic design (which I personally prefer) and it looks like he's at work on Decidueye and Team Rocket Meowth. Of course there's always everyone's favorite: Full mod packs, PMex or Legacy XP anyone? vBrawl mod packs? How about Super Smash Sisters, Sonic & Pokemon M Super+, or SSB Infinite?

I genuinely feel like there's still a lot of creativity still to be seen on this site. Great mods are released almost weekly. Sure their are some that you may not like, but you'll find that one texture or PSA that you just absolutely love and couldn't stand to be without in your mod pack.

Im still Alive guys. Been really busy. This site is pretty much dead but i'll still post here

Huh, I'll take them out in the meantime.

I already deleted all their posts and banned them yesterday.

Are you able to add plugins or could only Miacis and Vyse do that? These might be useful:

Sorry for the Necro, but this is something that needs addressing. The anti-bot filter needs to be updated in some way or another.

Just today, we have three freshly created spambot accounts (one of the three was mad yesterday), who have been posting in dead threads with semi-related comments, but at the bottom of their posts, they try sneaking in a hyperlink to something.

These are the bots in question.
Bot 1.
Bot 2.
Bot 3.

Huh, I'll take them out in the meantime.
