Spear Pillar is boring frozen, but Palkia and Cresselia are too annoying, is there a way to fix it so that only the Dialga version loads?
There aren't individual rels for each version, so I couldn't use them to replace the Palk/Cress versions with Dialga, and just renaming the Dialga version to Tengan_2/3 caused a soft freeze. Any other ideas?
OK, I got this working by using rels to replace Pokemon Stadium 2 with stgTengan_1 and replacing Spear Pillar with 3 copies of stgStadium. Everything works fine gameplay-wise, the only problem is that now on Spear Pillar there are no sound effects and a couple of Dialga's visual effects are missing (the poof when he appears and the aura when he jumps into the foreground) Can anyone give me any ideas on how to fix this, or where the files associated with those effects are located?
I tried to take pf/effect/stage/rantou/stgTengan.pac and rename it to stgStadium.pac and it didn't do anything (not even a freeze surprisingly)
You could use the alternate stage loader http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=254340 (http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=254340)
And rename which ever of the files is Dialga's to stgtengan_A. And just make it so there is a button activator for holding A when you load the stage, in theory that should be the only stage that loads now, provdiing you remember to hold A when you select it and don't press anyother buttons.
I tried replacing arc 2 in Tengan_2/3 with the arc 2 from Tengan_1. It seemed to work once (I have another texture for Tengan_1 and the game booted up the original version, leading me to believe it was booting up my doctored Tengan_2/3) but it caused a freeze the 2 times I tried picking it afterward. Does anyone know if you can hold certain buttons when you pick Spear Pillar to pick which Pokemon spawns? That would help a lot in my testing.
I thought about that, but 99% of the time I just pick random, which is why I was trying to get rid of the others altogether. I think there's already a button you can hold to pick which version you get (like on Mushroomy Kingdom), I just can't find what it is.
Not in brawl to start, or at least I don't think so
It is, on the classic controller it's hold L/R for Dialga, X for Cresselia and Y for Palkia.
I'm trying to think of a way to swap the contents of the pac, sort of how some people do to have Sonic and Shadow at the same time, but I don't know how I'd go about it. Swapping everything causes a freeze.
Why not try swapping just the models?
He dosn't like t he events that Palkia and Crysalia does.
Sounds like something that would involve rebuilding the entire stage for the other two then. It's the only way to keep Dialga's effects.
Blegh, I was hoping there would be a way to just copy Dialga's pac over the other two, but I guess I'm stuck with just having it frozen, oh well, thanks for the help.

Use these codes and hold the correct button when selecting the stage. Hold X or Y for Dialga. Hold L or R for Palkia. Hold L or R with X or Y for Cresselia.
Problem solved. :3
Edit: And it figures the guy logs off RIGHT after I solve his problem. >_>;
You can do that without codes, I'm looking for a way so the other two don't show up if the stage is selected randomly. I'm grateful, it just wasn't what I'm looking for, thanks though!
Then you're asking for too much cause it ain't possible. And no you can't do that without the codes. >_>
Wow that's weird, I swear my imaginary button activators worked like 5 times in a row when I first tried, but I tried again and I guess it was just the ghost of Sakurai funking with me after all. Very lame considering you can do it with Mushroomy Kingdom. Oh well, thanks everybody.
Well, I got it going but I have a new problem, it's in the OP.
As for the effects they should be in the efls of the stage.
Where is that located? Is it ef_common.pac? Or are you talking about the ef_yaddayadda inside the actual stage's pac?
For STAGETENGAN_1, open it and look under ef_StgTengan. Misc Data
- is the effects. 1 or 2 may be sound or graphic files too.
That's what I thought, but that's all still there. I didn't modify the file at all, I just used a rel to put it somewhere else. There has to be something outside of stgtengan that triggers the effects and sounds because stgtengan is still in it's original state.
Nothing is guaranteed with rel files. They do cause problems sometimes.
Yeah, I think something's just causing Brawl to look for Stadium's effects instead of Spear Pillar's, but I can't figure out where it's looking so I guess I give up for now. Mission mostly accomplished.
I'll see about manually swapping Dialga over the other 2 when I can.
I appreciate it but don't go to a bunch of trouble on my account, the stage is fine as is. When I get off of work I'm going to try renaming Ef_tengan to ef_stadium and see if that helps. I really do appreciate the help though.
Well, I got Dialga on all 3 stages... but he still does Palia and Cresselia's attacks... and I don't think I can change it because all of the data besides the ones with the Pokemon's model data are the same in each pac. :>.>palm:
