Right, that is where I put them. I dont know what to do now. The only thing I can think of is that my nametags werent made the way they were supposed to but it looks right. I give up on this for a while, I want to make a PSA for a character so Ill try that

Sorry bad choice of words...

I meant I want their names to read that, not the announcer to make the calls.

Maybe you can help me then. I am trying to make DK say Shadow, Olimar say Cloud, and Falco say Silver as well as their result screen icons. Seems simple enough. I have all the things I need to put into the file, it just freezes my game.

BrawlBox-open info_en.pac-find the 3 characters I wanted to name-made new nametags-save in info2-and thats where I am at

Sorry about that. I left it in with the _en and it froze after character selection. I took out the _en and it froze after the loading screen in the beginning. Any ideas?

Do I need to remove the _en at the end of the file for it to work or do I just throw it in info2 as is?

I just tried that and failed miserably haha I just wish we knew what font it was. Same with my CSS I am using, I have no clue what font I am using so I cant change the ones I need

So to make the name myself, should I just put a black background and put white text over it or go about it another way?

Will it work if I have an info_en.pac and just change it in there and put it into my info2 folder?

OK what about in game character names? I am really only concerned with multiplayer mode so what file should I grab to change?

Does the MiscData[120] go into pf\stage\melee?

Those files are .brres right? How do I convert my .png to a .brres? Is it as simple as saving it with that extension or is it a little more difficult?

Thanks for the info. What about in game portraits?

What worked for me is I opened a new file in GIMP and set the background as transparent (its under advanced options). Then I went to file-open as a new layer. From there on the right hand side where it shows your layers, I right clicked merge down and the 2 layers became 1. From there, there is a wand tool in the tool panel (I believe its the 4th one on the top) just click areas outside the head and it should auto find background (you may have to do this more than once). just hit delete on the background and save it as a png. Just make sure when you start a new file that its the right size for a csp ( i dont remember off the top of my head) hope that helps!

OK so I have searched and searched and watched video after video and I still need help with some stuff.

-How do you change the in game character portrait? And silhouette too?

-Can I make announcer sfx changes if im using gecko? If so, how can I change it from donkey kong to shadow?

-How do I change the stock icons to show up at end game? They are there if i play a 1p game but when I play as shadow over DK, dk's head will still show up end game signaling that someone killed dk when it was really shadow.

-May be a dumb question, but is their an easier way to preview changes made either PSA or portraits rather than constantly pulling out the sd card and putting it back in?

Thanks for the help guys.
