[rekneslon]

Is it possible to export brawl animations to use in another program? It's been a while since I've been playing around with brawl hacks and I need to know? Thanks in advance.

Hey tjmsrubegoldberg I've down everything listed it works, but one problem all the characters voices are silenced. How would I fix this?

[TheAwesomeGuy]

I have a kind of noobish hacking question I used to use gecko OS and smash stack to load hacks for brawl only and now i use Riivilution and smash stack to load hacks for brawl and new supper Mario bros Wii i installed the Riivilution channel by mistake so i removed the channel immediately because i don't want to risk bricking my Wii and my Wii is still covered under warranty so if anything were to happen i would just send my Wii to Nintendo to fix so my question is if something were to happen to my Wii would Nintendo fix it if i sent it in and not find out that i used Riivilution and not fix it and also is it possible for my Wii to get bricked also i have a 4.3U Wii connected to the internet well was but not anymore but might get the internet back soon with nothing else done to the Wii other then what i stated i really would appreciate a response I'm just so concerned about my Wii. Thanks in advance. Sorry if this post is way to big.

i have a noobish question too, sorry.
could someone post an example of a file location address? because i have everything installed that i need to but i think either my file locations on my SD card are messed up or im missing something. here is the file location for the Zelda folder on my SD card. if needed/wanted i can post the addresses to the other ones [im only trying to do character mods right now]
here is what the root of my SD card looks like. i already have the homebrew channel, bootmii, and the program that lets you run back up disks from the disk channel [Dark something] installed.

Hi, I'm a complete NOOB at hacking and would very much like to download some characters I have found online(as well as a few I have found here), however I have a mac so would that still interfere with the SD card thing? and you said wii brew works with 4.3 but my wii updated so would I have to somehow downgrade it or something?...

[GTALionKing]

This is how I got mods to work thanks

[justadood]

the riivolution file isn't downloadable for me either, when i open the link, it doesn't have any download buttons, no options on right click for downloading or zipping, nothing... anyone who knows what's going on: HELP please

normally the "+" dissappear after the error and I can't expand the tree.
Sometimes if i close and reload the same file, it expande without problems but this is rare.
Anyway sometimes i get to see the "bones" (or incomplete bones) but not the textures but mostly see nothing (yes, i zoom out).


-after making a simple texture hack (see pic below where i just added the 2 black snakes) and trying to save the file as brres, brawlbox is giving me another error:


I am on Win XP SP3 x32, and before somebody asks, yes i have .net 3.5 SP1 and graphic card OpenGL 1.3.1
but ok, I admit I am not using it for SSBB but for brres of Final Fantasy Fables Chocobos Dungeon and tried the new Zelda SS demo too. brres viewer can show them both without problems.
Some idea where the problem is??


Then I have a question, are there some tools around to view/edit or at least some specs of the Wii 2D graphics (like your demo pics of the strap for wiimote on start up??

Thanks alot

[DashSmash]

Noob question I have riivolution installed for mkwii and if I want to do it also for ssbb do I just follow the staps from riivolution?
