Title: Patching a Custom Result Screen Post by: (gabriel/joao)wojwicz on May 06, 2010, 05:18:18 PM I'm new here, I really don't know where to post... Well, I have send this too on Smash Boards, but here ya go:
Hi everyone, I'm still new on brawl hacks... I have patched 3 custom characters and some color dresses textures.. I decided to put N64 Styled Results Screen by Shadow51591 But every time when reaches the screen, it crashes: *Yes, the hacks is running on Dolphin emulator, I don't want to hack my original Brawl* (http://i867.photobucket.com/albums/ab234/gabrielwoj/ResultsScreen.png) I have make L+R+A+Start to exit the brawl round... Also, I have patched this file: STGRESULT_en.PAC The HACKED file was: 64 STYLE STGRESULT.PAC Thanks EDIT: NOW WORKING!!!

Well, I need some help O: Title: Re: Patching a Custom Result Screen Post by: mnsg on May 06, 2010, 08:18:01 PM Whoever made that texture must've been unaware that it used more memory than normal.
Usually, whenever a file uses more memory than when it's left unedited, game crashes tend to occur. Of course, this only applies to PAC files that are either compressed or contain compressed contents. An unedited STGRESULT.pac file uses up to 692 KB, and contains compressed contents. When editing that file, make sure that it uses less than 708,256 bytes when you save it.

So THATS because it crashes... There are some way to fix, or report to the creator? Title: Re: Patching a Custom Result Screen Post by: mnsg on May 07, 2010, 09:51:25 AM The best way to reduce the memory of a file is to lower the quality of the texture parts. High quality images use more memory than low quality images after all.
Tip: Try reducing the number of colors that a texture part uses. That usually works for large texture parts.

No, it's not that... I reduced the quality of Shadow and Sky backgrounds, and didn't worked as well... Title: Re: Patching a Custom Result Screen Post by: mnsg on May 09, 2010, 02:57:26 PM I've told you all that I can figure out. Try getting an unedited STGRESULT.pac file, and place the texture edits onto there.
Title: Re: Patching a Custom Result Screen Post by: PAVGN on May 09, 2010, 05:26:06 PM Reinsert the textures as CMPR instead of their original format. And can one of the mods move this to help already? Seriously. :>.>:

Also I have put RiiVolution on my SD, and loaded some stages what was not loading at Dolphin... O.o Reinsert the textures as CMPR instead of their original format.

Title: Re: Patching a Custom Result Screen Post by: (gabriel/joao)wojwicz on May 11, 2010, 07:39:53 AM FINALLY, it works!
Thanks for mnsg for the idea (make the file again, using the original STGRESULT.pac): (http://i867.photobucket.com/albums/ab234/gabrielwoj/64Results.png) *Now can close this thread... Please* Title: Re: Patching a Custom Result Screen Post by: (gabriel/joao)wojwicz on May 11, 2010, 07:43:24 AM Oh, and one more thing...
I think why it crashes sometimes, because may the file is for NTSC, the ISO is PAL... |
