Sounds easy enough, but since I haven't really used BrawlBox, I opened the file and there's just so much stuff in there, I don't have a clue where to start looking or which file I'm supposed to be poking at. :o

So I was making a CSP for a friend, I ran step2 for the Cupash thing and everything was going fine. I went to try it out on Brawl, but it didn't display at all. But the other one I made did. I checked that it was named Ness3_big.tga, I know I renamed the common5.pac properly so I could see the changes on the game. That's all I could think of for why it might not work. Does anyone here know what might cause a portrait to not display in the game even though I followed the steps on the Youtube tutorials and tried in both Gimp AND Photoshop? Anyone have any insight as to what might cause this sort of situation that I can try out?

Thanks, I'll give Gimp a try then, hopefully I'll be able to figure out how to get it to work like PS and hope that has better results.

Edit: I don't suppose there's a decent tutorial around that you could point me to for making CSPs in Gimp? I'm so totally lost using it and wish I could use it in Photoshop. XD Found one after some digging, too tired last night to see it though. And an update still again, I did one in Gimp and it worked, though I'm still wanting to know what could have happened with PS.

So based on the image, you don't have any thoughts or ideas as to what might cause it to look like that on the game? Because it definitely doesn't look like that in PS when I save, and as I said, haven't done anything differently from the other 54 portraits I successfully made. This whole thing seems bogus to me that it's acting up on me. ._.; I had created 3 portraits for Samus first - on costume 3, 4, and 6, ran the game and tested them out and it was fine. Then I make ones for costume 1 and 2, then bam! Whacky image display. >_<

Are you meaning the color table? If so, I save the color table of the indexed image I'm taking, save it, then paste to the 128 x 160 image, I index that and load the color table I saved of the picture I'm loading so the colors should be the same, following one of them there Youtube videos. And just so I'm clear about what I mean by distorted (batteries died on my camera and don't have more so I can't take a pic to show XD) I tried to PS an image to give an idea, but it looks much worse in the game, far more stretched out and squiggled than this. >_<

If that's what you were thinking though when I said distorted and I did somehow give it a wrong pallet, would it really mess up a pic like that? O__O

Definitely good to know there's no limit, but I tried again and still a flop. Must be something small I missed then, though I gave it another shot from scratch and it was still messed up. Just so I'm clear, what do you mean by check that their palettes aren't messed up?

Just need a little help I guess, I'm trying to replace my character portraits so I can, you know, see what I'm selecting rather than blindly pick a character, so I'm trying to do this for every character that I have a texture for. I can get CSPs to work fine - I did for my last 54, but the last two I did, it shows up in the game on the character select as looking pretty distored. I can't be doing anything wrong - nothing different from what I've been doing, I mean my last 54 were perfect but these last two are screwed... Is there like a limit to how many you can do or something before your pictures start messing up? I don't know, I figure someone out here must know what's going on.

Awesome, thanks a bunch!

So I downloaded a .pac for Ness called ShadowBlade that changes the image of his Yoyo. I assume it has to be renamed, but I haven't a clue what it should be renamed to, as well as if I have to create any new folders on my SD card for it. Any help on this would be great, thanks.
