Title: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 2.0.0 rc1 Post by: libertyernie on July 06, 2011, 04:24:16 PM Scroll down for some other programs (2nd and 3rd posts)
Costume Manager, Stage Manager, Song Manager, and SSS Editor have been updated to version 3.9 (June 20, 2017). This adds some support for Legacy TE among a couple other things. These programs are bundled together in one zip file and include their own DLL file (BrawlManagerLib) and the same version of BrawlLib and OpenTK included with BrawlBox (except now compiled for x86 specifically in hopes that it will fix some problems people were having running the programs.) All versions are posted at https://github.com/libertyernie/BrawlManagers/releases (https://github.com/libertyernie/BrawlManagers/releases). See there for the changelogs in those versions. Brawl Stage Manager (http://www.lakora.us/brawl/stagemanager/) Brawl Song Manager (http://www.lakora.us/brawl/songmanager/) These programs allow you to manage the stages and songs on your SD card using drag-and-drop. Brawl Stage Manager lets you add/change/remove stages, .rel files, and portraits.. It'll also update your mu_menumain and sc_selcharacter2 (random stage chooser) appropriately, when you tell it to. Brawl Song Manager lets you add/change/remove .brstm files and, if info.pac exists, it can edit song titles. Brawl Costume Manager (http://www.lakora.us/brawl/costumemanager/) Brawl Costume Manager is a .NET application for managing the costume files and corresponding CSS (character select screen) portraits for each character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Neat features:
SSS Editor (http://www.lakora.us/brawl/ssseditor/) The controls to add/remove/rearrange stages and change stage IDs and icons are written in HTML and JavaScript, and run inside an embedded WebBrowser in IE8 mode. This means it comes with a few extra DLLs and requires Internet Explorer 8 or above to be installed. Title: Looping Audio Conv., GCT Editor Post by: libertyernie on July 06, 2011, 04:24:27 PM Looping Audio Converter (http://lakora.us/brawl/loopingaudioconverter) current version: 2.0.0 (https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/2.0.0) (http://i.imgur.com/u4SsAut.png) This a replacement for both Export Loop VB and BRSTM Converter. It comes with vgmstream (for decoding BRSTM and other formats), vgm2wav (for decoding VGM/VGZ), madplay (for decoding MP3), faad (for decoding MP4 audio, e.g. M4A/AAC), lame (for encoding MP3), and SoX (for decoding, encoding, and audio modifications.) It also uses VGAudio which lets it encode BRSTM, DSP, and related formats. Looping Audio Converter itself is just the interface that connects these functions together. See the link for more info. brawlls (https://github.com/libertyernie/brawlls) current version: 1.0 (April 6, 2014) (http://i.imgur.com/Zdq8HUq.png) This is a command-line app for listing and extracting nodes from any file BrawlLib can open. I wrote it for two main reasons: to practice C++/CLI, and so I can compare two Brawl stages and find out what changed. To that end, brawlls is able to calculate checksums for each node, and list them recursively (it stops at MDL0 nodes' children, unless you tell it not to.) It also prints the values of MSBin, STPMEntry, and STDT data. The link above goes to GitHub; the .exe files are in the Release folder. It uses a version of my custom BrawlLib build that provides the MD5 support. In-Place GCT Editor (http://lakora.us/brawl/gcteditor) version: 3.7.1 (February 8, 2016) (http://lakora.us/brawl/gcteditor/dsm.png) This is a program that can open/save raw GCT files and turn on/off certain codes (and edit them.) Codes that you can turn on/off:
Since version 3.7.1, this program no longer crashes if you're using custom song IDs from the Custom Sound Engine in your Custom Song Volume code. Title: other tools Post by: libertyernie on July 06, 2011, 04:24:39 PM Warning: edits to common2 will not work reliably (maybe not at all) with Gecko.
MiscData Editor (All-Star/Event Matches) STPM tool Classic Stage Editor: Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (Rate Converter 2.6.1) Post by: KTH on July 08, 2011, 08:58:38 AM look good
thx u Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (Rate Converter 2.6.1) Post by: WTVelocity on July 28, 2011, 05:41:55 PM Ummm I see updates, but what exactly does it do? lol
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (Rate Converter 2.6.1) Post by: libertyernie on July 29, 2011, 10:18:34 AM It makes BRSTMs, using as its input most audio formats like WAV and FLAC (but not MP3) or any vgmstream-supported format (for music from video games). For files like WAV and FLAC that don't loop, it reads the loop points from a text file.
It also lets you lower the sample rate (making the file smaller), make the file mono (also makes it smaller), and make it louder/quieter (which doesn't affect file size). Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (Rate Converter 2.6.1) Post by: WTVelocity on July 29, 2011, 11:35:42 AM Ah thanks for the info!
Any reason it doesn't support MP3s, or is that planned for later? Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (Rate Converter 2.6.1) Post by: libertyernie on July 29, 2011, 07:12:37 PM Well, the only sox.exe I can find is compiled without MP3 support, and I'm not sure how to add it.
If there's a simple command-line program to convert MP3s to WAV files, I could use that. Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (Classic Stage Editor - on 2nd post) Post by: libertyernie on August 26, 2011, 08:15:55 AM Posted the Classic Stage Editor, which lets you change what stages appear in Classic Mode.
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (Classic Stage Editor - on 2nd post) Post by: Jaklub on August 26, 2011, 10:57:19 AM Oh my God. Classic Stage Editor.
Yes. Thank you for this. Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (new STPM tool!) Post by: libertyernie on January 20, 2012, 08:05:35 PM I made a new STPM tool :)
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (new STPM tool!) Post by: DSX8 on January 20, 2012, 08:15:37 PM hmmm so urs has a previewer ehh? looks good o.o
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (new STPM tool!) Post by: Sky Grounder on January 21, 2012, 02:56:02 PM So you made your own STPM tool? Guess I'll post some of my notes:
If you want your program to read the file (more advanced) so it would support multiple entries, here's the specs: Other than that, good job. Have you figured out some of the values? I have some suggestions on what some of the values might do: Screen positions at characters (when starting a match) Classic mode camera (when winning the match) Snake final smash boundaries Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (BRSTM Converter 3.0: now with MP3, VGM support) Post by: libertyernie on April 11, 2012, 09:18:29 PM Bump for new BRSTM Converter. This program lets you do batch-conversions of many formats (including WAV, MP3, FLAC, BRSTM, VGM/VGZ) to BRSTM, and you can also change settings like amplification, stereo to mono, and decreasing sample rate.
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (BRSTM Converter 3.0: now with MP3, VGM support) Post by: DSX8 on April 11, 2012, 09:32:00 PM sweet can do mp3's!
thats wat brawlbox needs... Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (GCT editor that lets you change things! go to post 2!) Post by: libertyernie on May 10, 2012, 08:17:24 PM I should probably bump this for the new GCT program.
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (GCT editor that lets you change things! go to post 2!) Post by: libertyernie on May 17, 2012, 12:50:28 PM Bumped again. The newest GCT Editor supports enabling/disabling codes listed in a text file (static_codes.txt - will be auto-generated if not present). This lets you, for example, turn on Unrestricted Pause Camera or Tags in Replays without recompiling the whole GCT file.
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (GCT editor that lets you change things! go to post 2!) Post by: Beyond on May 17, 2012, 12:53:21 PM I love you. :srs:
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (GCT editor that lets you change things! go to post 2!) Post by: SmashClash on May 17, 2012, 02:11:39 PM I love you. :srs: Same. Thanks so much.EDIT: It gives an error when opening the link. Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (GCT editor that lets you change things! go to post 2!) Post by: SSJ Is Clueless! on May 17, 2012, 04:09:12 PM this is an awesome tool
but yah its gives an error message Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (GCT editor that lets you change things! go to post 2!) Post by: libertyernie on May 18, 2012, 09:34:58 PM fixed, thanks.
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (GUI to edit All-Star Mode! YAY) Post by: libertyernie on June 03, 2012, 10:04:59 PM All-Star editor added. Try it out if you have some free time.
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (GUI to edit All-Star Mode! YAY) Post by: Shun_One on June 04, 2012, 08:22:31 AM I will most certainly try it out. Now let me go think up a clever organization of All-Star characters for Project M
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (GUI to edit All-Star Mode! YAY) Post by: SOJ on June 04, 2012, 10:19:03 AM Wow these are actually really useful tools. Good job
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (June 14 - edit event matches with a GUI) Post by: libertyernie on June 14, 2012, 08:23:10 PM Bump for the event match editor. See the link in the OP.
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (June 14 - edit event matches with a GUI) Post by: Shun_One on June 16, 2012, 12:15:18 AM Tried out editing All-star mode, but I goofed. I like the ease of use the program allows though. As for Event Match's, maybe I'll try to make a P:M variation of them...
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools (June 14 - edit event matches with a GUI) Post by: pikazz on June 17, 2012, 12:01:49 PM I love the Event/Allstar program! <3
I did this and some more! [Custom Brawl Event] Pikamaxi's Challange! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bd4OVCqf-c#ws) Title: Re: libertyernie's tools: Brawl Stage Manager! (Jan. 30) Post by: libertyernie on January 30, 2013, 09:07:38 PM I made a new program called Brawl Stage Manager, and it's something I think a lot of people will be able to use for organizing their stages. Check it out in the first post :)
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools: Brawl Stage Manager! (Jan. 30) Post by: SSJ Is Clueless! on January 31, 2013, 08:58:05 AM wow thats awesome man, makes me wanna get stages....
btw, your computer looks old (based on the theme...) Title: Re: libertyernie's tools: Brawl Stage Manager! (Jan. 30) Post by: libertyernie on January 31, 2013, 08:45:09 PM It's Windows 7, but I set it to the Windows Classic theme :P
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools: Brawl Stage Manager! (Jan. 30) Post by: SSJ Is Clueless! on February 01, 2013, 07:49:02 AM ah lol
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools: Brawl Stage Manager! (Jan. 30) Post by: spralwers on February 03, 2013, 09:16:02 PM with the stage organizer, any plans to be able to import custom pictures for the stage select screen? stage names, stage portraits, stage icons, etc
Title: Re: libertyernie's tools: Brawl Stage Manager! (Jan. 30) Post by: libertyernie on February 05, 2013, 08:52:05 AM Not right now. It wouldn't work for custom stages (STGCUSTOM) anyway, since the icon numbers for those aren't always the same; depend on whoever is writing the Custom SSS code.
(Also, my common5.pac has stage expansion icons, but it doesn't work with the current BrawlBox/BrawlLib.) Title: Re: libertyernie: New BrawlLib tools + update mu_menumain automatically! Post by: libertyernie on February 14, 2013, 12:38:57 PM I'm gonna bump this again for the 2 new applications I posted (and the Stage Manager update.)
Title: Re: libertyernie: New BrawlLib tools + update mu_menumain automatically! Post by: Sirkura on February 26, 2013, 07:51:19 AM I've always been curious about the GCT editors. Is it possible to code it to read a .txt file so people can add there own codes to what its able to read? I've never seen anyone bring it up before. as it is i have so many codes in mine i get like 4 that can be read, and over 3k lines of code that can't. ._. just wondered if anyone had tried or thought about it before. for now i find it easier to keep a .txt of all my codes and use a compiler to make a new GCT any time i make edits.
also great work on the programs here! i use a good chunk of them myself particularly the brstm editors xD Title: Re: libertyernie: New BrawlLib tools + update mu_menumain automatically!

Glad to hear these tools are helpful!also great work on the programs here! i use a good chunk of them myself particularly the brstm editors xD In the case of my GCT program, it makes a file called static_codes.txt, and you can add your own codes to this file. The "static codes" tab is for these, and the other tabs are specialized for certain codes with certain variables. (By the way, I need to update the GCT editor soon with more song IDS.) Title: Re: libertyernie: New BrawlLib tools + update mu_menumain automatically! Post by: Sirkura on February 26, 2013, 12:07:04 PM awesome ty i'll have to mess with it later. i can probably kick the Brawl plus tweaker now.

Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Costume Manager! (this is cool!) Post by: Segtendo on June 04, 2013, 07:15:24 PM Ernie! Yes!
Was gonna gonna ask if it's cBliss compatible, but the image you give answered for me. Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Costume Manager! (this is cool!) Post by: libertyernie on June 04, 2013, 07:17:33 PM Yep. cBliss was the reason I made this, although I haven't gotten around to trying it on my Wii yet.
P.S. If you just downloaded it, make sure you grab OpenTK.dll. It's for the latest BrawlLib and I realized I forgot to put it in the .zip file. (It's there now.) Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Costume Manager! (this is cool!) Post by: Segtendo on June 04, 2013, 07:19:41 PM It's telling me that it isn't a valid Win32 application. :srs:

Post by: libertyernie on June 05, 2013, 08:43:48 PM Costume Manager updated to 1.1! See the website for a list of new features. This version should run on Windows XP as well.
Enjoy. ([url]http://code.google.com/p/brawltools2/source/detail?r=22[/url]) Keep up the good work sir. Thanks so much! I was able to build the new version of Costume Manager for .NET 4.0, and apparently that did the trick. After installing .NET 4.0 on my Windows XP virtual machine, it runs perfectly - even against the BrawlLib from BrawlBox v0.68c. Go figure! So I kept that DLL in the zip.

did you forgot the BPs (the inbattle CSPs)? that will be epic if that is added to the program aswell the BPs is kinda annoying sometimes to add new of since each 1 of the BPs is in they´s own file only 1 BP per brres file in Info/portrite/InfFaceXXX.brres so this program can sure be usefull for these aswell Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Costume Manager!

But i notice some problems. If you check Cbliss before you choose your folder, a error message appear. and if you look at the new slots without unchecking "hide certain polygon/textures", you can't see or modify csp and the same error appear. Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Costume Manager! (this is cool!) Post by: libertyernie on June 06, 2013, 06:13:33 PM I'll add in the battle portraits & fix bugs in the next version :)

Makes adding/making stuff easier :D Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Costume Manager! (this is cool!) Post by: libertyernie on June 09, 2013, 02:42:34 PM I updated the program to 1.2, adding a battle portrait editor and fixing a couple bugs. Also, you can now export the portraits with a right-click menu - something I personally used quite a bit.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Costume Manager 1.2 (June 9) Post by: Segtendo on June 21, 2013, 02:53:18 PM Liberty. Hey dude. Lovin' the costume manager. Just curious: is it possible to make the program remember where our folders are? Like, make it so we don't have to choose our location every time.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Costume Manager 1.2 (June 9) Post by: Syeo on June 21, 2013, 04:28:14 PM Is it also possible to let the program recognize "sc_selcharacter_en.pac"? When I use it without _en, it's fine. However, when _en is added, I get a unhandled exception error.
It'd be nice if you don't always have to rename the file. Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Costume Manager 1.2 (June 9) Post by: Segtendo on June 21, 2013, 04:34:08 PM Oh yea. Is it also possible to add a function to add the small CSS pictures? Like, what you choose to select a character.

Post by: Iredgen on July 15, 2013, 03:14:28 PM ...it can do a lot of things, like change which MenSelmapMark entries point where... Thank you so much for this :D However I've been having a bit of a problem. Using the stage manager program to change these (MenSelmapMark) only updates the SSS (not the "my music" menu) and using the "UpdateMenuMain" program you posted screws up the textures and alignment of the other buttons in the "my music" menu (I'm using Project: M, so the button textures and position in common5.pac are different than the ones in mu_menumain.pac). Do you have any idea how I could fix the MenSelmapMark icons (and MenSelchrMark too) in "my music" without messing with the other stuff? Title: Re: libertyernie: Brawl Stage Manager 2.0 which does a LOT of things! Post by: libertyernie on July 15, 2013, 06:59:46 PM Try this: take the animation MenSelmapPos_TopN__1 from mu_menumain, and put it into your common5. Then run UpdateMenuMain. That should let you keep your My Music layout. (MenSelmapPos_TopN__0 controls layout for the normal SSS.)

Well, that didn't fix my problem XD But you gave me ideas on how to fix and I did figure something out :) Here's what I did: I just took the old mu_menumain.pac and replaced the MenSelmapPreview.pat0 file in AnmTexPat(NW4R) with the one that was in common5.pac so I didn't have to update the whole file (and screw up other stuff at the same time). Thanks for the reply anyway :) Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Song/Costume Managers 2.1 Post by: libertyernie on August 02, 2013, 08:04:53 PM I updated all three manager programs. Costume Manager got the most additions (stock icons!) but I also fixed some bugs in the others. They're all in the same .zip file with BrawlLib 0.15d.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Song/Costume Managers 2.1 Post by: Segtendo on August 03, 2013, 02:28:32 PM Liberty. You should mention that costume manager needs the OpenTK in the folder. I was having troubles launching the program without it.

that misd data editor allows me to change the pre-set all-star mode matches to whatever stage and enemy combinations i want...? also, can i use the costume manager to, like, have Link on a green Tunic when he is on the Blue team?

Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Song/Costume Managers 2.1 Post by: ToadKart on August 16, 2013, 11:53:09 PM I keep experiencing errors using the Stage Manager, and it closes the program. I guess I can save more often so I don't lose anything I've done, but it's pretty annoying. Not sure what's causing it.
Edit: Turning off the render model option fixed this. Also, I was able to fix a freezing problem I was having with a couple of stages. Great program. :) Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Song/Costume Managers 2.1 Post by: guedesbrawl on August 21, 2013, 07:21:46 PM question: With the all-star editor, can i make 3 opponents fight me at once or am i stuck with 2 opponents even if 3 or 4 characters are programmed?
Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Song/Costume Managers 2.1 Post by: ToadKart on August 22, 2013, 12:19:26 AM I've been having some more problems with the stage program now. I went through and indexed all of my icons and confirmed that they were all smaller in filesize, but yet when I drag and drop them to replace the older icons and then save, the filesize doesn't decrease.
Also, the program doesn't save right sometimes. I finally got the total filesize under the limit and then saved to common 5, loaded up Brawl, and then got a freeze. When I opened up the common 5 file in the program, the filesize was over the limit again and nothing I had did was saved.

I'm pretty sure you can increase the number of characters, but if most of the bytes are 0s and 64s, you should probably copy from the first opponent and paste onto the new one, to be safe.I've been having some more problems with the stage program now. I went through and indexed all of my icons and confirmed that they were all smaller in filesize, but yet when I drag and drop them to replace the older icons and then save, the filesize doesn't decrease. Well, BrawlLib does need to convert them into a different format - one that Brawl can recognize. Making the PNG smaller doesn't always help. But if you're using less than 256 colors, try right-clicking the icon and using Replace; this will show the texture converter, which lets you reduce the number of colors in the palette.(Come to think of it, I should really automate that.)

(Come to think of it, I should really automate that.) I've since gotten all of the custom stage icons inserted, but now I'm having the same problem making the default Brawl icons smaller in Brawl Box by indexing them. Even though the indexed icons are indeed a smaller filesize, when I replace them in Brawl Box and save, the filesize doesn't decrease. And when I export the images to check the filesize, they're back to the original size. :>.>palm: Might just try to reduce the number of colors in the palette for the custom stage icons in Sage Manager then. Edit: Well, I figured out the saving problem. What the program does sometimes is instead of overwriting the common5 file on the SD card when saving, it saves a new file just called "system" in the downloads folder. But sometimes it does overwrite the file on the SD card and sometimes it doesn't.

Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Song/Costume Managers 2.1 Post by: libertyernie on September 04, 2013, 06:49:06 PM I added a bunch of features to the Brawl Stage Manager; visit the website (http://www.lakora.us/brawl/stagemanager (http://www.lakora.us/brawl/stagemanager)) to see a list. I fixed a bug or two in Costume Manager as well.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Song/Costume Managers 2.1 Post by: ToadKart on September 04, 2013, 08:15:02 PM Yay, an already great program is made even better. Stage Manager really makes making your own SSS a lot easier. :)
Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Song/Costume Managers 2.1 Post by: Segtendo on September 05, 2013, 11:07:32 PM Yo. Liberty. Awesome update to the Stage Manager. I love how you can type in a name and choose the font it uses ;D
Two suggestions to you, if you can implement them. 1. If a name is too long, it'll cut off the name. Maybe make it so that when it cuts off, put that text below the top part? 2. Is it possible to include a feature to save the mu_menumain.pac alongside the sc_selmap? It would save so much time.

I could have it update the MiscData[0] in an existing mu_menumain, just by integrating this (http://www.lakora.us/brawl/updatemenumain/) into the program. I'll probably have it be an option in the menu that you can enable.

Also, if I have the render models option checked, the program encounters an error and shuts down when I move to certain stages. This doesn't happen with the option deselected, but then the snapshot feature won't work. If a stage file makes Stage Manager crash, it's because the file also makes BrawlBox crash. I can't really do anything about that except ignore certain stages/models/etc. If you could post downloads to the stages that break, that would help!

EDIT: I think I fixed it. Try version 3.1.1 (http://www.lakora.us/brawl/stagemanager/) that's posted now. Also, I'm working on a new feature - showing BRSTMs if you have those Stage-Dependent Song Loader codes for your custom stages, like I do. The audio player disappears if the selected stage doesn't have one, but I could change that. What do you think of this screen? Too busy? I don't know how else to fit it all on there...

I think it would be cool if you could combine all of your tools into one program. Basically keep it how it is, but have "tabs" you can select for the different tools.

Not sure if a program like that would even be possible since Brawl Ex is pretty complicated, but it's just an idea that would help a lot of people that are having problems.

I have a question about the SSS editor. It edits the code right? I'm wondering if it could edit the common5 file itself to change the order of the stages?

Sc_selcharacter isn't read by the newest Costume Manager for me, and neither are any of the BrawlEx files. Could there be some conflict with the Project M characters because of the BrawlEx Roy and Mewtwo that were added? Title: Re: libertyernie: now Stage Manager lets you play/change songs (Jan. 22) Post by: libertyernie on March 13, 2014, 12:01:57 PM I can try to fix the costume manager - it might be something with sc_selcharacter, since I always keep my own stuff in a common5. I'm not sure what would be making Stage Manager freeze, though. Could you go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\libertyernie\BrawlStageManager in regedit.exe, and take a screenshot? (You don't need to change anything.)
EDIT: Nope, sc_selcharacter works. It must be the cBliss stuff. Mind sending me your cBliss configuration files? (Or just the whole fighter folder if that's easier.)

For Stage Manager I put a try/catch block to catch the exception, show it, and then ignore the registry path. For Costume Manager, it doesn't actually fix the issue, but it should show an error message so we can figure out what's going on.

I also have a Mewtwo slot and a Roy slot, but the manager thinks it's Project M (Mewtwo using PKMN Trainer's slots, Roy having an unused slot, etc).

I don't mind going to the directory every time. The other way to do it (maybe the better way) is to make a shortcut to BrawlStageManager.exe and change the "Start in" property of the shortcut. This works for the other manager apps too.By the way, the reason the BrawlEx error was happening (using ShinF's pack as an example): Costume Manager reads each Fighter**.dat. Fighter1C.dat refers to Pokemon Trainer, and it points to a CSSSlot file that specifies a certain color order for slot 27 in char_bust_tex. Then Fighter40.dat refers to Mewtwo, points to a different CSSSlot file, and that file specifies different colors for slot 27. In this case, the program should probably favor the file with the higher number (Mewtwo), right? P.S. Looks like it can edit the extra battle portaits if you already have them, but it can't add them. Maybe I could add this at some point in the future, but it probably won't be in the near future. I'd have to figure out how to do that in each case.

In this case, the program should probably favor the file with the higher number (Mewtwo), right? I'm pretty sure it's because the Project M mappings are overriding the BrawlEx mappings, here. I assigned Mewtwo to Slot 111, not Slot 27, so he doesn't share Cosmetics with Pokemon Trainer at all in my build. But if the program still reads him as having his Project M slot, which is 27, then it makes sense that there's a conflict. Same with Roy, who is assigned in mine to 110 but still seems to read his original Project M slot. It's not a big deal at all, since it's just a couple of characters, though. P.S. Looks like it can edit the extra battle portaits if you already have them, but it can't add them. Maybe I could add this at some point in the future, but it probably won't be in the near future.

I just wasn't overwriting known names for some reason, so it was keeping the Brawl and PM ones. I'll make sure that's fixed in the next version.
@Segtendo: Does the "start in" thing work for Costume Manager? Or does it not work for any of them?

if you want to add MP3 support, take a look at the high quality library 'ffmpeg.dll' this library is what manages the compression found in any mpeg-compliant format. :) NOTE: I'm not sure if ffmpeg is outdated, but I think the standards still apply in todays MP3s.

Title: Re: libertyernie: brawlls for your command line (page 2)- Post by: ShinF on June 05, 2014, 10:45:30 PM I can confirm Eggman12's bug also happens using ShinF's stock BrawlEx Bliss files ([url]http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=66848.0[/url]). This does, indeed, happen. If I had to guess, I'd just say it's not reading the BrawlEx files for those characters or not applying them for some reason. It's not a big issue, though. Just use the options to switch to cBliss mappings. It won't effect the others characters with BrawlEx files, but it'll put the costumes for those characters in the same order that I did in the stock files.

Title: Re: libertyernie: Cotume manager screenshot->portrait fix Post by: zhiro90 on September 28, 2014, 01:19:35 AM hey i've been using your programs for months and they have been working fine, but suddenly the stage manager started crashing when i tried to open it. Sometimes it would open in an unstable way without any portrait showing and constantly reminding me about some brawllib exception. this all started when i selected a default folder in my sd and i started the program without the sd plugged in. The song manager opens but when closings shows the same brawllib exception. the costumemanager works fine
Then i updated (i was 2 releases behind) and it happened again so i was sure it was my pc. it might be something very simple in the registry but i am lost! any help would be nice your apps rock, man! ps. are you planning support for both project m and cbliss with the costutme manager? UPDATE: I fixed it, there was a read/write permission conflict with a file in the appdata local temp folder, apparently it got itself locked from acces and was needed to proceed. took ownership and deleted it. thanks anyway you still rock lol but i'm still asking for projectm+cbliss support at the same time :D Title: Re: libertyernie: Cotume manager screenshot->portrait fix Post by: Syeo on September 29, 2014, 12:17:20 PM Is it possible for you to combine the Project M and cBliss mappings?

Title: Re: libertyernie: Cotume manager screenshot->portrait fix Post by: Pikawil on November 15, 2014, 03:38:43 PM Well, looks like the Costume Manager will need an update to have a fully functional PM 3.5 mapping; as it is now, it can't see the portraits for the new 3.5 skins.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Cotume manager screenshot->portrait fix Post by: libertyernie on January 06, 2015, 08:08:52 PM For combining Project M and cBliss mappings: normally the cBliss option actually removes the Brawl mappings and sets everything to portrait #0 -> costume #0, portrait #1 -> costume #1 and so on. So in that way, they're mutually exclusive.
However, I can make it so that (even with the cBliss setting off) any costumes that don't normally exist in Brawl/P:M (e.g. costume numer 11 for Link) will look for a portrait with that number, instead of just giving up. Do you think that will do the trick? Title: Re: libertyernie: Updates to all four manager apps Post by: libertyernie on February 02, 2015, 08:49:23 PM I updated all four manager apps.

Still, I wouldn't have gotten anywhere without the editor programs in the first place, so I'm really really grateful for them; it's just come down to polishing the last details for my build now, so stuff like being able to change the volume for stages is becoming pretty important.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Updates to all four manager apps Post by: JohnTravolski on April 07, 2015, 08:02:54 PM As we know, BRSTMs (.brstm) are files that the Wii and other game systems use to LOOP music. I am trying to use this fact to achieve the following:
Basically, I need to come up with some way to massively export two files from one BRSTM file, because I’m going to be doing this with thousands of them. I need some kind of application that will do the following, in order: 1. Be able to read a BRSTM and use the loop points embedded into the file to achieve the following: 2. Export one wave file (.wav) that starts at 0 samples (or 0:00 in time) and ends at the end loop point (also known as the total number of samples, last sample before the song starts over again) 3. Export one wave file (.wav) that starts at the starting loop point (which usually isn't 0 samples, for example, it might be 14336 samples or some other number) and ends at the same end loop point as mentioned above. I could just cut off all of these points to make the files in Adobe Audition, but the problem is that I need to be able to do this for THOUSANDS of files, and doing it manually isn't reasonable. Since these perfect loop point numbers are embedded into BRSTM files, I basically just need some application that can read these numbers and use them as reference points to export the BRSTM music as two wave files, starting from 0:00 to the end loop point and one wave file starting from the start loop point to the end loop point. Here’s an example of what I’m trying to accomplish: (http://i.imgur.com/lq8bqx3.png) As you can see from the picture, I have two files: Space Pirates Attack_01 and Space Pirates Attack_02. Looking, you can see that 01 is much longer and is different than 02; this is because it includes the introduction, prelude, or whatever you want to call it, and goes to the music that ISN'T included in the loop point. Then, where you see the white line, I have my second file, 02. This cuts off the intro and starts the start loop point, a number that is embedded into the BRSTM file. Then it ends at the same end loop point as 01, and the third file you see is 02 over again so that I can continually loop it. When I listened to it, it looped and played back flawlessly. As you can see, this has massive benefits for me; I can extended music easily to whatever length I want without having to have 30 minute extended files for each (which is what I used to do by downloading the extended versions from YouTube). This saves file space, increases the quality, and offers more potential since I just have to copy and paste 02 over and over again to extend the music to whatever duration I want. The question is, how can I obtain these two files quickly and easily without have to go through and cut out at the sample times manually? I need to create some kind of application that can do that, since the start and end times for every BRSTM are different. Does anybody have any ideas? If I can figure out how to do this automatically for many files at a time, this will have massive benefits for me and other people that I know. However, this is how the .BRSTM converter currently exports BRSTM files: (http://i.imgur.com/nFZLrdU.png) I know that its code is open source, so I could change it to accomplish what I'm looking for, but the problem is that I have no idea what to change. I don't expect you to make an update that can allow this since I'm probably the only person on Earth looking for something this specific, but I need some direction to figure out how to accomplish this since I know nothing about coding. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Title: Re: libertyernie: Updates to all four manager apps Post by: Ricky (Br3) on April 08, 2015, 01:32:15 AM Why don't you simply listen to BRSTM music on BrawlBox?
Unless you want to put them on an iPod or write it to a CD, there is absolutely no need to export thousands of continuously looped BRSTM to .wavs. It just makes no sense... Even if you WANT to do so, the whole point of a continuously looped song is to listen to the same song over and over, not a playlist with thousands of it. Just saying... Title: Re: libertyernie: Updates to all four manager apps Post by: JohnTravolski on April 08, 2015, 01:20:00 PM I'm not exporting thousands of the files; only two for every .brstm file. Each .brstm file I'm going to use has different music, you know...
And I'm not listening directly to these at all; I need to use these files in my video editors. If you don't make videos or narrations, it's probably hard to understand, but I'm trying to achieve this specific goal for a reason. I repeat the same file in the timeline so that it loops continuously in the narration. I just need help accomplishing my goal above. Title: Re: libertyernie: Updates to all four manager apps Post by: Doq on April 08, 2015, 03:31:42 PM Or just do what I do: Export from BrawlBox and edit to fit.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Updates to all four manager apps Post by: JohnTravolski on April 08, 2015, 03:40:15 PM That's what I was considering, but the point is that I'm going to be doing this for so many different songs that it simply isn't reasonable for me. Plus, if it's done automatically, that'll save countless time for me in the future. I know that making this change to the coding can't be TOO difficult, but I just have to talk to the right people to figure it out in the first place since I know nothing about coding. Even though I'm basically worthless in regards of knowing what to do or even having a fundamental knowledge, I refuse to give up until I find some way to export these files the way I'm desiring.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Updates to all four manager apps Post by: libertyernie on April 26, 2015, 05:47:51 PM I updated the manager apps. I fixed bugs in Song Manager and SSS Editor that could corrupt a GCT by adding codes after the footer, and I compiled everything for x86 (maybe this will help, not sure.)
I don't think it would be hard to write a separate program to extract two WAV files for a BRSTM (before loop + after loop, or whole thing + after loop) - maybe I can look into it later this week. I'd need to look into cutting a WAV in pieces by sample size, but I bet there's a library for that (if it's not built into .NET already.)

I truly hope that you do find out how to do this. I know absolutely nothing about coding since I'm a video editor.

Also, are there any quality differences between BRSTM, BCSTM, and BFSTM?

I don't know what BCSTM and BFSTM are used for, actually. I've got a track from Klonoa that has two streams in BrawlBox. I always just assumed that it was a stereo stream and two mono streams (if you open the .wav file Export Loop VB makes in Audacity you'll see them), but it actually makes sense that it would be two stereo streams. It's certainly possible to have exportloop export those separately. Could you remind me what file name options you wanted? Title: Re: libertyernie: Export Loop VB for converting BRSTMs to WAV (May 16) Post by: DSX8 on August 12, 2015, 05:45:37 PM BCSTM is a 3ds music format, while BFSTM is a WiiU music format... they're pretty similar to BRSTM but BFSTM has multiple music streams in it... I suggest looking at UWizard for BFSTM data since it can export its streams into wavs

For example, when I export the loop segment of the BRSTM, it exports as the name of the original file + (loop). An example would be Phendrena Drifts (loop). While this is useful for the most part, there are instances where I might, for example, want the export files to say something like "Phendrena Drifts (mid)" or for the beginning segment "Phendrena Drifts (start)" instead of "Phendrena Drifts (beginning)" to save characters. Another possible use would be in instances in which spaces in the output file names wouldn't be acceptable, which is common in some instances. I would have to rename each .BRSTM with a space that I get from BrawlCustomMusic, but at least I wouldn't have to do that two or three times for each one I exported.
Keep in mind, this is a relatively minor nit-picky thing that's not as important as, say, adding flac output support, which I would greatly appreciate. Once again, sorry for the late reply, as I highly appreciate all the work you've done for this. I should also mention that I tested this with .BCSTM and .BFSTM files, and it exports them perfectly, which is great. And, yes, they are used by the 3DS and Wii U respectively. Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Costume/Song managers and SSS Editor updated to 3.6 Post by: libertyernie on August 28, 2015, 06:45:39 PM I've updated the Stage Manager, SSS Editor, Costume Manager and Song Manager to version 3.6. The first two have the most changes. See my github releases page for the changelog:
https://github.com/libertyernie/BrawlManagers/releases (https://github.com/libertyernie/BrawlManagers/releases) I think I'll work on adding those features to exportloop (Export Loop VB) next. I have an idea about passing binary data right from the C++ side to the VB side and I want to see if it works. Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Costume/Song managers and SSS Editor updated to 3.6 Post by: PseudoTypical on August 28, 2015, 07:30:38 PM The manager programs work perfectly now. Thanks man. :)
Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Costume/Song managers and SSS Editor updated to 3.6 Post by: JohnTravolski on September 02, 2015, 03:58:44 PM I'm glad to hear you're working on ExportLoop now. Hopefully those features don't pose too much of a challenge, because I would certainly find them useful (.flac output support most specifically).
Also, just curiously, LibertyErnie, do you use Adobe Premiere Pro and/or Adobe Audition? Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Costume/Song managers and SSS Editor updated to 3.6 Post by: libertyernie on September 09, 2015, 06:26:24 PM I'm glad to hear you're working on ExportLoop now. Hopefully those features don't pose too much of a challenge, because I would certainly find them useful (.flac output support most specifically). Also, just curiously, LibertyErnie, do you use Adobe Premiere Pro and/or Adobe Audition? I've never used either of those. Is there something that would be helpful to make this work with those? I'm actually writing a new program (https://github.com/libertyernie/loopingaudioconverter) now that will be BRSTM Converter and Export Loop put together. (I wanted something to do to keep me busy.) I'm designing it to avoid using temporary files as much as possible, too. Input formats will be anything supported by vgmstream (including BRSTM) or SoX (the windows build on their website), MP3 (madplay), or VGM/VGM using VGMPlay. Output formats will be WAV, FLAC, MP3 (lame), Ogg Vorbis (SoX supports it so why not), and BRSTM (using BrawlLib). Each will have an option for one file or multiple (0-start, start-end, 0-end), and the ability to export separate files if the input has more than 2 channels, plus the existing amplify, convert to mono, and change sample rate options. I'm trying to structure the program in a way that makes it simple to combine these features together. Here's a screenshot of something I've got working already (BRSTM to BRSTM converting - not very useful, I suppose): (http://i.imgur.com/MrrLHlU.png) By the way, this program's "internal format" will be 16-bit PCM .wav with looping information embedded, something I just found out a week ago that vgmstream's test.exe supports! (By the way, I think BRSTM might be 8 bits per sample instead of 16.) Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage/Costume/Song managers and SSS Editor updated to 3.6 Post by: JohnTravolski on September 10, 2015, 03:32:32 PM Great to hear, I'm glad that you're going further into this! As I mentioned, BCSTM and BFSTM are used for the 3DS and Wii U, respectively, and they're not too different than BRSTM. Unfortunately, I know nothing about programming, but I do know that you can input BCSTM files into a hacked 3DS (such as with Tubehax) and actually get that custom music to play on your 3DS or in your 3DS's game.
If I may suggest, and assuming it's not too much of an issue, I recommend that you also find some way to make BCSTM and BFSTM output files as well since you're making BRSTM an output option. Please realize that ExportLoopVB 1.1.1 can already import BCSTM and BFSTM files and export them as .wav files at the correct loop points (I've tested this myself), so it may not be that difficult. Also, whatever you do in this new program, please be sure that you do not remove any functionality that ExportLoopVB had, as in being able to import BCSTM and BFSTM files, because I use those as well. The reason is that I rip game audio from 3DS games and obtain a lot of BCSTMs, and the only way to get usable audio data out of them is through ExportLoopVB, so I want to be sure that, whatever you do, they'll still work with the new program. Finally, thank you for doing this! The reason I was asking about the Adobe software was because I was going to see if you were interested in, possibly, developing a plugin that would allow any imported looping audio format (like BRSTM, BCSTM, BFSTM, etc) to be infinitely extendable within either Audition or Premiere just to remove the step of copying and pasting the looping segment (which is what I have to do after exporting the .wav files from ExportLoopVB). If not, that's perfectly fine, the program you're working on now sounds amazing regardless. tl;dr: See if you can make it output BCSTM and BFSTM since you're already making it output BRSTM (assuming it's not too hard). Make sure that it can still import BCSTM and BFSTM like ExportLoopVB can. I asked about the Adobe software to see if you were willing to develop a plugin so that looping audio format could be flawlessly and infinitely extended within Premiere/Audition. Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.0 - see post 2 Post by: libertyernie on September 27, 2015, 10:24:18 AM I posted Looping Audio Converter, which is pretty much Export Loop VB and BRSTM Converter put together. It works in Mono too. :) See post 2 for the link.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.0 - see post 2 Post by: JohnTravolski on September 30, 2015, 02:47:51 PM Sorry for the delayed response, but I'm having issues (Windows 8.1 Pro all latest Windows updates installed). It may because I don't understand how the program works or because it's actually a bug:
With that BRSTM called "Follow Fi" (http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/36104 (http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/36104)) (2 streams, 4 channels), I tried to export with these settings and it crashes once I click OK: Crashed: I read the message in the command prompt, but I don't understand what to do about it (is it a bad BRSTM or is there a way to get your program to deal with that?) I tried the same file with the following settings and it did export correctly: Succeeded: Also, here're my results from a 1-stream 2-channel BRSTM (Beedle's Airshop) (http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/24366 (http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/24366)): Succeeded: By succeeded, I refer strictly to the program creating the output files. I have yet to check the integrity of those files with Adobe Audition, but they sound fine when I play them back. I'm not entirely sure how "put each channel in its own file" is supposed to work, so I don't know if I was basically asking for the crash given my settings or if it's actually a bug. Please reply letting me know more about this. I will continue to test the program as time passes. Post Merge: September 30, 2015, 03:22:21 PM Here's more information. I have succeeded with some BRSTM files (like this one: http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/189 (http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/189)) when I export both the whole song and the looping segment (with "Put each pair of channels in its own file" selected), as a .flac or .wav file, I get different results, as can be seen in Adobe Audition: (http://i.imgur.com/z4tWoq9.png) Notice the labels; to the left is file output as is considered to be the "entire song" while to the right is what is considered "the looping segment." For the .wav exported by Export Loop VB and Looping Audio Converter (the bottom two tracks, respectively) you can see that they align at the exact same point, as noted inside the red box I drew. They both play back and loop flawlessly when put up together. However, the .flac file, the first track, as you can see, seems to be missing a sample or two (I don't know exactly how many) from either or both of the exported files (despite a succeeded [defined in the previous post] export). When I play these two files together, there is some loud clicking noise right at the very end of the "whole song" file and the beginning of the "loop segment" file, as if they're missing samples or something. They do not loop perfectly when played together because of the clicking noise. This was not an alignment error that I could have made because when playing both files individually in Windows Media Player, I can hear the clicks right at the mentioned points in the files. I assume this is some problem with the .flac extension since it works perfectly with the .wav in the same program (Looping Audio Converter) the exact same way it does in Export Loop VB. Once again, I highly appreciate your efforts, but this is what I have noticed so far. I could be messing something up or they could be bugs, but that's for you to determine. Thank you. Edit: I managed to get closer in Audition and each "block" or square you see along the curves lines represents a "sample." These are the same tracks as before. As you can see, the .flac that was exported on the top track seems to have its samples messed up right at the end and beginning of the "whole song" and "loop segment" files, respectively. Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.0 - see post 2 Post by: libertyernie on October 15, 2015, 01:07:48 PM The way FLAC files are generated is actually by generating the WAV file and then having SoX convert it. I'm not sure why those samples would get cut off.
As for "loop point past the end of the file" problems - do you have a link to a BRSTM that does this so I can look at it? Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.0 - see post 2 Post by: JohnTravolski on October 15, 2015, 03:37:35 PM This BRSTM: (http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/24366 (http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/24366)) with these settings:
(http://i.imgur.com/2rdhSgq.png) results in that error. Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.0 - see post 2 Post by: libertyernie on October 16, 2015, 09:26:20 AM Thanks! I'll look into it.
I was able to fix the FLAC issue by using temporary wav files for decoder output and encoder input, instead of reading/writing the data to/from stdin/stdout. So that will be in the next version. EDIT: I uploaded version 1.1, which has fixes for both those bugs. Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.1 (bugfixes) Post by: JohnTravolski on October 20, 2015, 02:50:03 PM Just to let you know, I've tested several things so far, and it looks great! As before, I genuinely appreciate all the time and effort that you have put into this program because it has already become an irreplaceable resource for me. I only have two questions so far (I will let you know if I ever have any other problems):
Why does the command prompt show up in the background whenever this program is open but it didn't show up whenever ExportLoopVB was open? Why does Looping Audio Converter close automatically as soon as the export is finished? I don't think that ExportLoopVB did this either. After all, sometimes I need to export multiple sets of files with different settings. Also, I noticed that you submitted some Chibi Robo (Plug Into Adventure) music on Brawl Custom Music. I'm just wondering; how did you obtain that music? I don't know how music worked back on the Game Cube. Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.1 (bugfixes) Post by: libertyernie on October 25, 2015, 01:28:01 PM Why does the command prompt show up in the background whenever this program is open but it didn't show up whenever ExportLoopVB was open? I think I did it that way because some of the programs used by Looping Audio Converter show their progress there. I suppose it's not strictly necessary to have that window open. If I make any more updates I might take another look at that. Quote Why does Looping Audio Converter close automatically as soon as the export is finished? I don't think that ExportLoopVB did this either. After all, sometimes I need to export multiple sets of files with different settings. I think ExportLoopVB did that. But I suppose it would be possible to have the main window come back up at the end in case you want to change settings - that's a good idea. Quote Also, I noticed that you submitted some Chibi Robo (Plug Into Adventure) music on Brawl Custom Music. I'm just wondering; how did you obtain that music? I don't know how music worked back on the Game Cube. Back when my Wii disk drive worked, Chibi-Robo was one of the games I copied onto my computer. I don't remember what audio format it used, but vgmstream was able to read it, so I used the old BRSTM Converter program to re-encode then into BRSTM while maintaining the loop points. Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.1 (bugfixes) Post by: JohnTravolski on October 26, 2015, 02:35:05 PM Nice! Thanks for the responses. I have continued using Looping Audio Converter for several different BRSTMs and BCSTMs with no issues so far. Also, I just tested it; the most recent version of ExportLoopVB did not show the command prompt nor did the program quit after exporting.
Also, when you say that you "copied that game onto [your] computer," would that be the same thing as looking at the files in a ROM? For example, I could easily find gamecube ROMs on the internet and try to extract files out of those, but I have no idea how I could "copy" a game I already have to my computer (in your case, from the Wii disc drive). Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.1 (bugfixes) Post by: E-scope12 on October 26, 2015, 02:44:37 PM Can you fix the shading in the brawl managers?

For example, I could easily find gamecube ROMs on the internet and try to extract files out of those, but I have no idea how I could "copy" a game I already have to my computer (in your case, from the Wii disc drive). There's a Wii homebrew app that can dump the contents of the disc onto your computer over wi-fi, acting as a web server. (I don't remember the name, and I think I had to install some sort of special IOS to do it.) It's the same thing you'd get if you downloaded the ROM - at the time, it was easier for me to do it that way. Then I used GC-Tool to extract the files. Can you fix the shading in the brawl managers? If you mean the shading in the 3D models, then I doubt I can. Does it look OK in BrawlBox? Maybe I could compare. Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.1 (bugfixes) Post by: libertyernie on December 17, 2015, 10:37:01 AM I updated Looping Audio Converter to version 1.2. The Github releases page (https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases) has a list of changes.
I just used it a couple of days ago to convert a bunch of iTunes .m4a files to lower-bitrate .ogg files for an old MP3 player I found so they'd fit. (There's no bitrate option in Looping Audio Converter, but if someone was interested maybe I could add it at least for .ogg.) Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.1 (bugfixes) Post by: JohnTravolski on December 18, 2015, 05:59:50 PM I just downloaded version 1.2, and although I haven't had the time to test it, as soon as I open it, I get an error message:

Thanks! I also like how the program stays open afterward, that's a very beneficial enhancement to my workflow. Also, I think that the bitrate option would indeed be helpful.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Costume/Song/Stage Managers 3.7.1 and GCT Editor 3.7.1 Post by: libertyernie on February 11, 2016, 07:10:13 AM I uploaded some new versions (Manager apps and GCT Editor) - should probably bump the thread.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Costume/Song/Stage Managers 3.7.1 and GCT Editor 3.7.1 Post by: JohnTravolski on March 18, 2016, 04:19:20 PM Thanks for the Looping Audio Converter, LibertyErnie; it has served me well over the months that I have been using it now. It works flawlessly and I'm very glad that you made it; it has helped me with so many of my videos.
In case you ever get bored and feel like improving it, I do have some possible suggestions in the future (these are all minor things): It would be really nice if you could set defaults for this program. For example, I almost always export these files in .FLAC format, but the default when I open the program is set on .BRSTM. Similarly, I have a specific output directory that I commonly use, so being able to set that as a default that remains there every time I open up the program would also be very helpful. Basically, being able to set defaults for all of the options in this program would greatly help me. Also, I'm curious, how does the "convert to mono" option work? Does it average the two channels for a stereo audio file or does it just pick one of them? Title: Re: libertyernie: Costume/Song/Stage Managers 3.7.1 and GCT Editor 3.7.1 Post by: libertyernie on March 19, 2016, 06:42:35 PM The "convert to mono" option gets forwarded to SoX as " channels 1", so SoX handles that conversion. I think it averages the two channels.
EDIT: Could you try this out? https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/v1.3rc4 (https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/v1.3rc4) Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3 (March 24, 2016) Post by: JohnTravolski on March 25, 2016, 04:45:18 PM Sorry for the late reply. Anyway, that helps a lot! It definitely saves me a lot of clicking. I was thinking more along the lines of having the program automatically load those settings every time you open it, but the method you incorporated here still helps a lot.
Also, what does this newly-added "Convert directly between BRSTM, BCSTM, BFSTM box do? I'm also glad that you added export support for the BCSTM and BFSTM as well (instead of just BRSTM). Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3 (March 24, 2016) Post by: libertyernie on March 28, 2016, 06:40:36 PM The way I implemented BCSTM and BFSTM encoding is by encoding BRSTM and then converting it to those formats. It can also convert in reverse (BCSTM or BFSTM to BRSTM) without having to decode to WAV and re-encode, so it's a lot faster.
There are some versions of BCSTM and BFSTM it won't understand, though, so for those you would still need to decode (with vgmstream) and re-encode. EDIT: forgot to mention - if you save the ini file as LoopingAudioConverter.ini in the same folder as LoopingAudioConverter.exe, it'll load automatically. Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3 (March 24, 2016) Post by: JohnTravolski on March 28, 2016, 08:41:44 PM Oh, thanks! I'll try that out soon and let you know how it goes.
Edit: I tried that and it works wonderfully! Thanks. Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3 (March 24, 2016) Post by: libertyernie on June 22, 2016, 07:28:59 PM I posted Brawl Managers 3.8, with Project M 3.6 character mappings and a few other things.
Soon I think I'll release a new Looping Audio Converter - someone found a slight error in the BrawlLib RSTM encoder that meant audio samples could be a bit off.

Is there a guide on how replacing trophies works?Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3.1 Post by: libertyernie on August 12, 2016, 10:54:10 AM I posted a new version of Looping Audio Converter. Let me know if there are any problems.
https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/v1.3.1 (https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/v1.3.1) It doesn't seem to work on my 64-bit Debian install - but I think this is a problem in code BrawlBox also uses (not finding the right library for memmove.) Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3.1 Post by: JohnTravolski on October 12, 2016, 07:28:21 PM I've had no issues so far, but I haven't had the opportunity to test everything out yet. I appreciate the continued support on Looping Audio Converter. It has been invaluable to me ever since you first developed it.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3.1 Post by: libertyernie on October 17, 2016, 11:40:12 AM I posted a release candidate version (1.3.2 rc1) of Looping Audio Converter, which adds looping .ogg support. I'll make it the official version in a week or so if there are no problems.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3.3 rc1 with uncompressed BRSTM support Post by: libertyernie on November 04, 2016, 01:54:43 PM I've just posted a release candidate for version 1.3.3:
https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/v1.3.3-rc1 (https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/v1.3.3-rc1) This version has support for uncompressed 16-bit PCM audio in BRSTMs. 16-bit PCM is what most WAV files use; this means that you can now make BRSTMs that have the same audio quality as WAV files (and the same large filesizes - they're about 3-4 times the size of a regular ADPCM-compressed BRSTM.) Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3.3 rc1 with uncompressed BRSTM support Post by: JohnTravolski on May 06, 2017, 09:05:35 PM Sorry for not responding for a while. I want to let you know that I really appreciate your continued support on the project! Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to compile the source code, so I'm not sure how to try out the versions of Looping Audio Converter newer than 1.3.1.
Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 1.3.3 rc1 with uncompressed BRSTM support Post by: libertyernie on June 07, 2017, 01:42:58 PM I posted a new test version of LoopingAudioConverter. This has everything in 1.3.3, plus:
* vgmstream, lame, and BrawlLib updated * AAC encoding support added (requires Windows + iTunes) * A couple of fixes for running under Mono https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/v1.4.1rc1 (https://github.com/libertyernie/LoopingAudioConverter/releases/tag/v1.4.1rc1) Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage Manager 3.9 Post by: libertyernie on June 21, 2017, 06:55:30 AM Version 3.9 of Stage Manager (and related apps) posted.
Changes in 3.9: * BrawlLib has been updated, which might fix some bugs. * (Stage Manager) Improved I4 vs. IA4 detection when importing MenSelchrMark or MenSelmapMark images. * (Stage Manager) When adding PAT0s, you can now choose not to add the corresponding TEX0s. * The "default" Custom SSS code is now correct. * (Stage Manager) Fixed a bug in name entry for the random stage select screen. * The software will now look for a LegacyTE or LegacyXP folder (just like it looks for a projectm folder.) * (Stage Manager) Stage Manager can now read the Tracklist Modifier and Stage-Track Dependent Song Loader codes and use them to show the correct songs for each stage. * (Stage Manager) Drag-and-drop targets have been added to replace individual sections of a Legacy TE stage preview. Title: Re: libertyernie: Stage Manager 3.9 Post by: libertyernie on July 20, 2017, 08:29:45 AM Another version of Looping Audio Converter is up. This one uses VGAudio instead of BrawlLib for encoding, which lets it support more formats.

Also, I have a question. I'm trying to extract the sounds from this .brsar file, but it seems like BrawlBox cannot do it. Is there any way to get the sounds out of this .brsar archive file with BrawlBox or any other tool? Download it here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2jlw6t0WS_HallBUHJ0dUFyQjQ The .brsar archive was extracted with the Dolphin Emulator from a Wii Play ISO that I ripped with CleanRip on my Wii. BrawBox (0.78 and 0.68) crashes upon attempting to export .wav files from it. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if there's just no way to get the files out of this archive yet.

Title: Re: libertyernie: Looping Audio Converter 2.0.0 rc1 Post by: JohnTravolski on July 27, 2017, 04:50:40 PM Thanks for updating the link, can't wait to try the new version out!
Also, thanks for taking a look at the file. I honestly don't know what to do about it, nor do I know anybody else who might be able to get the sounds out of it. If you're unable to determine what's wrong, do you know anybody else who might know what to do about it? EDIT: I have tested out Looping Audio Converter 2.0.0, and I have run into an issue. Albeit, it is just a minor annoyance, but I don't quite understand why it's happening. Whenever I choose "Save Options," a .ini file is created as expected. When I start Looping Audio Converter back up, the settings are loaded as expected. So it's functionally just fine. However, upon bootup of Looping Audio Conveter, every single time I receive this message: http://prntscr.com/g6espb (http://prntscr.com/g6espb) If I delete the .ini file, I no longer receive the message. I never had this problem with Looping Audio Conveter 1.3. Once again, it's just a minor annoyance, but it does happen EVERY single time I start it up.
