Just an update guys, I've learned alot, like alot alot. I've gotten the code manager and got the alloys and giga bowsers and such and im switching around my menu and getting songs to play over levels. This is getting real fun.

 

Allright guys, back after some testing.

I got Terra to work 

I chose just to take the "Armored" version and i renamed it to FitDedede00.pac & pcs

But unfortunatley, my Wii does freeze 10 seconds into playing with him. I did stick the rel in the module folder so that leaves me to assume I'm going to have to do some coding?

Let me know whatchu guys think.

Side note; this is what my "dedede" folder in fighter looks like;

1.) FitDedede.pac
2.) FitDedede00.pac
3.) FitDedede00.pcs
4.) FitDededeFinal.pac
5.) FitDededeMotionEtc.pac

and in my "module" folder, I have:

1.) ft_dedede.rel

and in my "sfx" folder I have:

1.) 12.bnk

Allright guys, I'll look over the much appreciated notes you guys left in regards to my questions and give it a go. Hopefully I'll come close to the understanding you guys have regarding hacks in SSBB. I really do appreciate it.

I got more questions but I'll bring those out later. Alot of testing to make sure I got it down.

I looked over alot of tutorials but is there any suggestions or links to guides or tutorials you guys recommend?

Like SD card basics? (So I FULLY know whats going on in each folder)
How to change the name in selection screen? (I know how to change roster images)
Changing the name the announcer says? (Like "CLOOOUD"

Thanks for that Choaticchronos.

Let me explain it like this: I downloaded Cloud Strife 2.5 V. It came with JUST 5 files:

1.) FitIke.pac
2.) FitIke00.pac
3.) FitIke00.pcs
4.) FitikeFinal.pac
5.) FitIkeMotionEtc.pac

I simply copied it all into fighter/ ike/ files. It all works fine and I've done other hacks for stages and other characterswith just textures. But i'm running into a bit of a wall now with regards to some other characters I'm trying to hack like Terra or Aqua or Cloud Platinum Edition. They have loooots more files and my Wii freezes, like you said, when I try to play with them.

I think it's maybe what you suggested with the codes that maybe causing the freeze but I don't know what you mean when you say "change the code for 1 jump for King DDD."

Questions flowing in my head:

1.) There is a folder with multiple Fitdedede00-01-02-03 pac and pcs files, do I just stick ALL of these files in fighter/dedee/files?

2.) What about all these files like FitTerraArmored - UltimaWeapon - and so on? Where do these go?

3.) What is this "module" thing? Is it simple as pf/module/dedede/files?

4.) Where are these codes that I have to "edit" ?

Hey Everyone. Quickly want to say I appreciate the hacks you guys developed. Made an awesome game like Super Smash Bros into something greater with each new texture or PSA or stage. Side note, I'm new to this, got everything going as far as for Homebrew and Gecko OS and my SD card and already hacked textures and PSA's and stages.

My question is on the Terra download I got. Theres quuuuite abit of files and I'm confused as to how to get Terra going. Any help would be appreciated.
