Flag3

Quote from: VILE on October 09, 2010, 01:48:38 AM
Flag3 - shader parameters
-0 ???
-1 light/glow
-2 cell shade
-3 lambert
-4 metal
-5 reflective
-6 environ.
-7 phong
-8+ ???

If flag 3 is set to 2, the model piece will not be affected by fog.  If set to 1, it will.

TYPES

Quote from: Mewtwo_2000Type 0 is 2-sided
Type 1 is 1 side
Type 2 is the other side
Type 3 is no sides (invisible)

Type 4 also appears to be invisible.  If textures are still appearing at type 3, try setting to type 4.

Flag6: R?
Flag7: G?

potentially, not sure though, we would have to find the correct value or set of values

Flag6 determines the overall brightness of the textures. That's what I found out from This. (http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=7397)

I will now copy and paste this fact in my brain.

Ive always been under assumption that material1 has been the materials properties and the other material files where the sub categories (diffuse, specular, bump etc), dunno i never really looked at them all too much, i might have a look at them today and try contribute some info.

Its weird almost no one noticed this yet, it actually sounds interesting. :P

I'm gonna jump in too...

Flag3 - shader parameters

-1 light/glow
-2 cell shade
-3 lambert
-4 metal
-5 reflective
-6 environ.
-7 phong
-8+ ???

(im under the assumption that there is only 7 because i know of only 7 shaders, but you never know i could be wrong, but its relatively safe to assume that there is nothing on 0 and beyond 8)

Flag4 - without a tester i dont think i can find this out (never see it go above 0)

Flag5 - i see it alternate between 1 and 0 but no steady pattern is there, i think ill need a tester for this one.

Flag6 - self ilumination

Flag7 - always on 4, need tester

Flag8 - always on 0, need tester


As you guys can see im lacking a source of testing files to actually see what changes are made. If anyone volunteers to test some files for me and take some snapshots, pm me or post back here.

Tried doing the flag3 thing to get a cell shaded effect and the metal effect (not at the same time though) and neither worked
Mind explaining it a bit further or am i just failing at this?

Oops, I misread what he said. (I thought It said no eyes and his Metal Mario is an emerald character with no eyes). In any case he should explain how to make an emerald character have regular eyes.

I believe the eyes are only invisible due to the eye textures being transparent 

Hmmm what does this mean that Type1 would make it 2D like G&W? I was a little confused about it.

Hax you go into the model file and uner Type or whatever type in a new number, 3 I think was to make them transparent.

Exactly I was going to say that, Mewtwo helped me out with one of these hacks. Go look at my invisible nintendog hack and you'll see. I was going to make a tutorial on how to make transparent models actually :P

I can assure you It works without a hex editor. I was able to make Mr. Saturn's whiskers and bow invisible by changing the materials to type 3 in Brawlbox.

Ok, well i guess if you say so.
Thanks.

Noah do you ever plan on updating the OP of the thread?

i gotcha covered. op updated with VILE's info. things are still subject to change with more testing and playing around with the flags

You could try going into materials and edge and edge2 transparent by changing value on Type to 3.

I apoligize for not contributing to this, I am helping people source STDT data for all stages, and that takes forever (if you'd like to help, PM me).

You can't change the type of texture, Only the whole material.

Oh right, but you could just as easily delete/ rename edge or edge2 within the eyeL and R material so they would not be there, right?

And could you go into a deeper explanation of flag6? For instance which values make it really bright?

Flag 6 is for brightness I tried putting it at 0 and the texture was darker than in brawlbox then I put the texture in Photoshop and lowered the brightness and had the same result

If it could, i would( Or at least mastaklo ) have done it ages ago.

Vile, Please tell us how you made Metal Mario. It would be useful for the rest of to make other characters like that, And when I tried to make a re-texture of Metal Mario It came out looking like this:

Flag3 - shader parameters
-0 ???
-1 light/glow
-2 cell shade
-3 lambert
-4 metal
-5 reflective
-6 environ.
-7 phong
-8+ ???

yeah vile, I've been unable to recreate any of these successfully, some just looked really buggy, and others didn't work at all?  Which values are you changing in hex? because its possible that brawlbox isn't changing all of the right ones.

I think in flag 3 more as a 'material group' or 'lighting group' than as shader parameters...

Anyway, some objects are able to use more of one type of flag3, and others simply can't. Maybe the flag3 activates some inner type of material in the model, and if it isn't included in the model, it glitches or crashes.

What I'm sure about it, is that changing this changes which lights effect to the model/material.

What I'm sure about it, is that changing this changes which lights effect to the model/material.

So then would I be correct in assuming that a value for flag3 determines how fog on stages affects the object, as well as ambient and other lights in the scene data?

I'm almost sure about the lights, but not 100% sure about the fogs. That 'group' should include fogs group anyway.

This might just solve a stage lighting problem i'm having
Can you go into more detail about flag3? o.O

Not much to say, if it's some value (for example), the model acts like characters do, for example. And when the value is 3 it acts as a stage element.

It's only an example, don't remember the values right now. Also, some models can't change that value, because they get glitchy.

The flag3 thingy worked, for example, in the ufo in my fourside. It was first acting like characters, and now it's acting like the buildings.

I will have more time to look into flag3 and materials1 after I finish STDT values on pirates, which I am almost finished

give me a moment to finish definitions...
and I'll UL it tomorrow after skool (if there is any...)
^if not, it'll just be tomorrow (bout to lose net for the night)

also,
Materials1 = 'Shaders'
Materials2 = 'Materials'
Textures1 = 'Textures'
Textures2 = 'Pallets'

feel free to ask how I figured any of this out ;)

EDIT:
NVM tomorrow :D
I've just finished the Definitions using a somewhat brute-force method :/
but it works...

note:
I've only seen types 2 and 4...
I'm sure there will be more though...

you'll need to use this with HexEdit, found here: (free no trial version)
http://www.smashboards.com/showpost.php?p=11656041&postcount=2778

now, place the code above into:
C:\Documents and Settings\*user*\Application Data\ECSoftware\HexEdit\_mdl0.xml

to view the template in HexEdit:
after opening the mdl0,
go to 'view'-'template'-'split window'
and be sure to turn the auto sync on as well (looklike 3 red arrows "back, forth, back")
(you may need to turn on the 'Navigation' toolbar)

anyways...
so that's it...

if you have any Q's feel free to ask ;)

EDIT:
just found type3 and type5 for definitions...
type3 is confusing (anywhere from len(3) to len(16))

hey...

I know this is kinda off topic,
but it'd be nice to display between eular and quat for the bones when viewing the model

just making a suggestion ;)
(Blender uses the Quaternion method when animating)

I'll have time to test out that code as soon as i get my new computer up and running, which might be awhile

also...
2 things:

1: (suggestion)
when viewing a model, can it be rendered while being edited??

I know rendering activates the shaders and what not (making the model look how it would in brawl)

2 I've found 2 more definition types
'type3' (in the midst of figuring out)
'type5' (exactly like type2)

I'll UL that when I figure out type3
note: you may experience errors with few mdl0's when viewing them...

1. No idea how to do that lol

2.  ?? Type three has already been figured out ...

Quote from: Mewtwo_2000Type 0 is 2-sided
Type 1 is 1 side
Type 2 is the other side
Type 3 is no sides (invisible)

yea... I know...
I'm building a template and I need to figure them out...
and nobody's helping me D:<

btw, there's also types 4 and 5

type3 has a sub-type of (so far) 2 and 3
2 has a length of 12
3 has a length of 18

btw, what do the definitions do (if you know)?? :/

EDIT:
found a sub-type of 4 which has a length of 24
and also a sub-type 5 len(30)

EDIT2:
you know...
I'm beginning to think that the sub-types I mention are more of a cound

2*6 = 12
3*6 = 18
...

I noticed they increased by 6 on every count attempt (or whatever the english language calls it) :P

well, I've finished the definitions (so far)

here's a template UD:

oh hey, make sure you click 'allow editing' when using the template...
(it works better) ^R-click on 'MDL0'

granted it does get a tad more confusing, but everything works as it should
(it takes a while to load though)

1. No idea how to do that lol

2.  ?? Type three has already been figured out ...

Quote from: Mewtwo_2000Type 0 is 2-sided
Type 1 is 1 side
Type 2 is the other side
Type 3 is no sides (invisible)

yea... I know...
I'm building a template and I need to figure them out...
and nobody's helping me D:<

btw, there's also types 4 and 5

type3 has a sub-type of (so far) 2 and 3
2 has a length of 12
3 has a length of 18

btw, what do the definitions do (if you know)?? :/

EDIT:
found a sub-type of 4 which has a length of 24
and also a sub-type 5 len(30)

So lengths=amount of possible values?
idk what the definitions do :/
you should learn C# if you don't know it already and help me implement this stuff into brawlbox xD

I was right on the edit with type3 :P
here's an example:
03 00 26 02 00 0F 3F 21 47 AE 00 11 3E BD 70 A4

type
data

count
data1
data2

basically the format for the template goes as such:
if type == 3:
__ID = read(2)
__count = read(1)
__for (count != 0 && (count || count - 1)):
____tmp = read(6)

as for C#
well, if it's easier to understand than C++, I'll try...
but I've got enough to do in Py :/
(building a model conveter for universal formats, and other stuff as well)

yea, I've tried learning C++ before...
that didn't go well at all (especially when compiling)

EDIT:
for something that might be known...

can you help me with figuring out shaders, materials, or anything else that's not complete??
also, are there any other definition types (other than: 2, 3, 4, and 5) you've seen

if type == 1 then stop reading. (next read is for the next offset block)

alright...
I'll ask something dealing a bit more with this thread :/

first off, Shaders (Materials1) are arranged as first described in brawlbox...
but there's more to it than that...

can you tell me (if you know)
how does the stuff not described in brawlbox work??

like, what is the data below the texture references?? (before the next shader)


and would the P4 offset be Particles?? :/
^if so then I could give Pikachu fur :D (real fur, not textured like DK or Ice Climbers (their hoods))

EDIT:
got any idea on what this is??
I've found a series of patterns, but the data is the exact same in every one :/
I can't seem to guess at what they may be...
:srs: and I'm a game developer

anyways...
can you take a guess??
(https://jump.matthewevan.xyz/i2p/pxbcwxbhxj2wusliwhrb6ym4vcwpihztuf2tfjejrcdzqrmnjuoa.b32/_/89ecc8e6b367402826d1514441e3f9d67738b387e2457a4ae9c9db80bc8d79da) (https://jump.matthewevan.xyz/i2p/pxbcwxbhxj2wusliwhrb6ym4vcwpihztuf2tfjejrcdzqrmnjuoa.b32/_/89ecc8e6b367402826d1514441e3f9d67738b387e2457a4ae9c9db80bc8d79da)
they belong to the shaders themselves, just above the texture offset data
(00 02 59 E8 starts the textures)

Try changing some of the hex values in the shader data and see what happens, I have no idea what they are, and I don't know the stuff not described in brawlbox works, but I think there are other materials1 things that aren't listed in it, I've seen some hex patterns that don't appear to be anything in materials1 in brawlbox

heh...
you guys don't seem to like change much do ya :P

eg: people still prefer to say PSA instead of Logic
or mat1 instead of shaders and so on :P

ah well... guess I can't force ya or whatever lol XDD

anyways...
I guess I can try it...
I just hate freezing my Wii is all :/

also...
there's only 2 hex patterens I know of in the shader data...
one being right above the textures (P3 offset), which would be the shader data...
the other being right below the textures, which would be the P5 offset
(or after the P4 offset if any)

thats probably what I was seeing :/

and I was calling it materials1 because we were talking about brawlbox xD I'll change the topic title if you think it'd be more appropriate.

yea... that's better :P

sry if I'm sounding a bit picky...
being a game developer, you kinda have to be...
if it don't look perfect, it won't work perfect

lol, random quote I'm definatly using :D
XDD

sry if I'm asking again...

but do you have, or know a friend ho has any MDL0's that use the P4 offset??

no, sorry :/

... dang :(

well here's something I've found:

Pikachu's tail is already a solid object and no, it has nothing to do with materials...

Found something pretty useful
Flag6- Red
Flag7- green
Flag8- Blue

collectively these values control color.
not sure what they'd do over a normal texture
but
works over black and white as far as I can tell

what does that mean exactly?
u mean it controlls team colour? id think u meant that though...
or like sonic's pink layer?

all I know is super scope has a value of 255, 255, 0 (yellow).  I'm seeing what happens when I change them now

EDIT: nothing happened, those values appear to be a coincidence :/ sorry

Found this:

Flag3
If flag 3 is set to 2, the material will not be affected by fog.  If set to 1, it will.

Should be useful to stage makers.

Nice bump.

OK. I changed the Flag of Ness' first shader to 6 and.......
Basically, it made Ness all black like Dark Link and any instance where he would have an overlaying color made him flash white.

See for yourself.

So its usually all black, but it appears to grab the latest overlay sometimes.  and I had one instance where he had black pixels all over but his actual texture was visible.

very nice find :D

that would be the diffuse RGB values.

meaning I could implement that into my dark green thunder and finally release my DPv3 :D

glad I didn't release my beta here yet ^_^

Well, I'm not positive thats what they do..

ut it definately has something to do with color, as changing one lightens, as PAVGN noted, and the highest values I see on each of them are 255, which really couldn't be anything else.  And hopefully I'll have some examples of what flag3 can do by tomorrow.

so this is what's for current info on materials:

materials:
flag3: Shader
flag4: ??
Type: Settings
flag5: ??
flag6: R
flag7: G
flag8: B

Flag3 - shader parameters
-0 ???
-1 light/glow
-2 cell shade
-3 lambert
-4 metal
-5 reflective
-6 environ.
-7 phong
-8+ ???

Type - normal settings
-0 normals 2
-1 normals -1
-2 normals +1
-3 normals 0

*sigh*
the node structures and material-shader structures are a pain -.-*
they usually start with '61 FE ######(0 or F)' though (BP registers)

I'll start experimenting with flag4 tomorrow, if I were to guess what it does now, I'd say visibility settings behind/in front of other models.

Good idea, I have yet to see layer/depth in the material nodes yet.

that unk value in the modset looks suspicious >_>

but it's prbly been taken care of in 064 already

@mods

may I suggest another move to the programming board

I've been playing with materials2, or whatever you fancy people call it now, and I see that some of the nodes are identical to each other.

first node
00 00 02 00 FF FF 2E 80 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00

second node
00 00 02 00 FF FF 2E 80 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00

third node
00 00 02 00 FF FF 2C 80 00 00 00 01 02 00 00 00

The first and second are identical all the way through, but the third node's differences don't stop with the first line, it has a lot of different values.

you're talking about the header right??

I've been working on nodes for a bit now...
the header of the nodes is 32 bytes, with these values:

0x00(4): Block length
0x04(4): MDL0 offset
0x08(4): ID
0x0C(1): flag (same as linked material)
0x0D(1*2): res(0-1)
0x10(1*8): ref(0-7)
0x18(8): padding (or unk)

below that is the node structures

I have defined a few here:

Ah, that helps ^^
