    *click the picture for the BrawlVault full-size download*

    BeyondYou made the original Brawl Stage Alphabet (in his thread here), but it only had capital letters and numbers. The PAL version of Brawl uses lowercase letters in the stage names on the SSS. I decided to fix the problem and turn the alphabet into a completed font with the addition of symbols and punctuation marks. The lowercase letters were snagged from PAL Brawl (except for j, q, and x), and all of the other symbols/punctuation was made from scratch by me.

    Only three things are missing: the dollar sign (won't be used by PAL folks much anyway) and curly braces/brackets (you can use normal parentheses instead of those).



    Instructions:

    Copy whatever portions of the font you want to use, and paste them in a 208 x 56 pixel image. The files for the stage titles have names like this:

    MenSelmapFrontStname.??

    With the ?? being the number of the stage the title corresponds to. (Battlefield is 01, Final Destination is 02, etc.)

    Open up the file sc_selmap.pac in BrawlBox (for PAL users, the file will be named sc_selmap_en.pac). Place all of your stage titles in the MiscData[80] section.

    For NTSC users, put the sc_selmap.pac in the following location on your SD card:

    private/wii/app/RSBE/pf/menu2/

    For PAL users, put the sc_selmap_en.pac in this location on your SD card:

    private/wii/app/RSBP/pf/menu2/

    And you should be done.


    Here's some examples of stuff you can do with this font:

    I just tried a while back. My noobishness caused me to give up because Font Creator was too complicated. But an expert in the field should do it. Maybe someone on Dafont or one of those sites would be up for the job?

    Have you tested it in-game yet?

    Make sure you've got the latest version of BrawlBox, and check your file sizes. Brawl tends to mess up when the sc_selmap_en PAC file is over its allowed size.

    Speaking of which, I re-discovered that the NTSC file also has the "_en" on the end of it. Whoops!

    I wish someone would convert this into a TrueType font....

    I also tried this shortly after finishing work on the font, but eventually decided that I really didn't feel like chopping the image up into 87 separate images and then setting various typographic properties for every single one of them. Too much hassle for something you could just copy & paste instead. If enough people ask for it, I'll try to give it another go, but turning the raster-image letters into scalable vector graphics tends to warp them in hideous ways.
