Is this hack set stable? I downloaded it recently and it makes my Wii crash really often. Admittedly, I clicked the download link before the "Hacked" version was available, and my Wii is hacked, haha.

By the way, thanks a ton for making this; I've been waiting ages for someone to add the Stage Expansion to BrawlEX and P:M.

All you're doing is a compilation pack using other people's things just to create this vision of the 'perfect' game that doesn't exist, while adding NOTHING of value that you created yourself. Not to mention smearing P:M's name by thinking 'hey this total conversion mod that a lot of people worked on isn't good enough and isn't to my tastes I should [censored] all over their work'.

Stop complaining about something that doesn't effect you. It makes you look petty and silly.

Someone on a Brawl mod site wants to enhance their Brawl mod with more Brawl mods; but nope, they shouldn't be able to try and improve their own Smash experience because you don't like it.

He's "smearing P:M's name" by changing it?
...So P:M must be "smearing Sakurai's name" for changing Brawl, correct?
...Better yet, aren't we all "smearing Brawl's name" by hacking it?
...Or even better yet, isn't Sakurai "smearing Melee/64's name" by updating it?

I'm sorry that you're offended by "unofficial" hack packs. I'm sorry that you're unable to grasp the concept that, when someone else's hack is borrowed and properly credited, it's public domain that anyone can use for any hack, pack, or project they like. What kind of attitude is that, on Brawl Vault of all places?

You're being a hypocrite. You complain that these people are "[censored]ting all over P:M's" work, only to [censored] on the hard work they've done to try and make P:M better. People have wanted to see this really badly for a long time, LC. Don't be so negative.

Love your work, keep it up! Looks really nice. That being said, I'm surprised Kirby hasn't been done yet...

Provided the team insists on completing every Kirby Hat texture, I feel he could actually be one of the last characters we see finished.

Mario's PSA is about halfway through the development process. There are some significant complications with the hack right now though, and because of this I've put it down for a while.

I recently fixed one of the problems, at the very least. If I could just fix a key problem with the damn Model Changer, I'd be more than willing to patch up what's already done and then release it... bleh.

Well I said "looks good" Because I haven't seen the PSA part of him yet. Obviously. But all the same, sounds like he'll be fun to use.

Yeah I know, haha. I'm just excited about releasing the moveset, that's all.

Sounds awesome man. Can't wait for that new Lord Ike.

Yeah; This is the first properly modeled Lord Ike released yet.

...I know Vert has a Lord model pending and all, but... [censored], I know he's never gonna release it.
Might as well get my own model and make my own texture, you feel me?
(...Er, my own texture based off of Smash 3's release, that is).

Also Ness is looking good.

Looking good? He feels good!

As for the look: This is an update from my my last Ness texture. It's far more accurate.
...Plus, it features the "Big League Bat", Ness' best weapon from Earthbound.
This release will also feature a custom Yo-yo texture.

But forget the textures: this next release is all about the moveset.

The beauty of this next PSA?
It's FEELS totally different, but plays very much like the old Ness.

In other words, this PSA is mainly aesthetic: It looks different, but acts the same.

That's all I can say for now.

Yeah, when I have the time.

I've gotten in touch with a modeler/importer, so that's upped my motivation a bit. We're gonna collab first on a proper Lord Ike hack. Demon_of_Elru will be making the model changes, and then I'll cook up a texture for it (using Smash 3 Ike as a base, of course).

This Ness is more than a texture though; it'll have a moveset too. Plus, I'll probably include an edit of Pajama Ness from P:M.

Pssst...



Ness is getting reeeaaal close to release!

Sweet! I was really hoping to see Dedede and Ice Climbers soon. I've got some old textures of them in bad need of some quality updates, and this is just perfect.

Keep up the great work!

...Ridley?

And I assume Bowser's on the list for his update, yes?

Thank you kind sir! May you sire thousands of children.

If you send me the animation I think I'll actually get back to working on Ike.

I've actually started a Ness PSA as well. The results are pretty interesting, I must say.

Glad to see some of my work got you posting, ha.

Do you have any other hacking skills, outside of textures? Importing, animating, stages, etc? Even if not, I'll keep your request to playtest in mind!

Right now, I'm toning things down and focusing primarily on textures for a bit. Since those don't need playtesting, you may be waiting for some time, ha.

I've got two Peaches in the works right now; from SMB and SMW. I also made some major breakthroughs updating my NES Meta Knight, but I've got to take him back to the drawing board. I'm focusing on updating a good chunk of my old work right now.

And ill send you the files for what I've done with Sothe/Jaffar tonight/tomorrow.

...Uh, don't forget to tell me what you need vertexed as well.

Delicious, excellent work Cap'n. I've been waiting for some proper Sothe's for awhile.

...Yo Vert, I hate to be that guy, but what's the status with Lord Ike? The one on the OP. What with Smash 3 Ike's latest release, I'm seriously dying to get cracking on a Lord Ike texture. Problem is, I don't do imports and vertexing a proper Lord Ike is impossible.

I know I have nothing to do with the people involved in the OP. But I recently redid my first Model import ever (Sothe) and decided that it'd be fun to experiment.

So I asked myself this morning "How bad could I possibly be at vertexing?"

The answer?

Very bad

I'll be working on Volke and Whisper Sothe next.

It doesn't matter, this is about FE importing in general.

...What do you need vertexed? I'm more than down to collab. I've gotten feedback from people who were shocked that my vertexes aren't straight up model imports. My Assault/Command Wolf and my latest Ike are examples of that.

Hit me up and tell me what you need. I'll try my hand at your request.

Actually, of the three Characters, Chrom could very well be the least popular, which surprises me. Lucina is easily the fan favorite and Avatar was surprisingly well received.

Lucina appears to have her own slot on the Smash Bros website, so... she could very well be a clone and not an alt. Or perhaps the fact that she has her own slot doesn't matter; who knows? It's anybody's guess. I'm mad disappointed that she's basically Marth, though. :|
