That goes way too fast and it isn't easy to follow. I'm not saying its too hard to follow but it definitely requires more attention the most tutorials.
Thank you sooooooooooooo much! I can't believe that worked!
I made a simple list of instructions
1. First, export the .brres of the first model data.
2. Convert the .brres into a .dae using ais. (Make sure that the .brres contains a model which is unedited.)
3. Export the vertex group that you want to edit in Brawlbox.
4. Now open 3DS Max 8 (and note that this only works in Max 8 not 9, 2008, 2009 or 2010), and run mariokart64n's script.
5. Import the .dae in 3DS max.
6. Make sure that "Scale AIS Import" is selected in the Vertex Modding Patcher and press "Fix AiS Import".
7. Choose the polygon that you want to edit and press "Hide unselected".
8. Now in the Vertex Modding Patcher, click "Import Verts". Select the vertex set which you previously exported from Brawlbox.
9. Click Morpher after selecting the polygon again. Below, you should see buttons that say "-empty-" and "0.0" beside them.
10. Right click on the first "-empty-" and press "Pick from scene". Then press "H" on your keyboard.
11. Select your vertex set, and then press Pick.
12. Now leave that as it is. (We'll come back to it later) Above that, click "+ Edit Mesh" and now you can start editing as you wish like you normally would.
13. After you're done, go back to "Morpher" and raise the "0.0" up to 100.
14. Press "B" and then "P" on your keyboard.
15. Now click on your model and on the right side, right click on +Edit Mesh and press Collapse All.
16. Now press "H" on your keyboard and select the vertex set.
17. Go to Modifier List and then select Morpher. Right click the -empty- like before, but this time click the polygon/model and raise the 0.0 up to 100.
18. In Brawlbox, export the model (FitNess00 in my case) and check the MDL0 Offset of your vertex set.
19. Now go back to the Vertex Modding Patcher box and write down the MDL0 Offset in the box. (Make sure that Read Offset from file is unchecked or you'll get an error.)
20. Then press Export Verts and choose your model that you exported.
21. Replace the model in brawlbox, and success! Now you can go edit other parts to make the model look even better.
I sort of felt bad for this guy at first, but then he just haaaaad to steal. I'm siding with that lion. Maybe this guy can or can't learn his lesson. Only time will tell.
How many times? Because I have tried it over 10 times. I tried it twice, completely restarted my computer, then tried it a bunch more times in the same procedure as mariokart. It is always the same exact outcome too.
I followed your instructions step for step on your new video with Ikes arms and It totally [censored]s up after patching for me. And I'm doing this from my friends house on his 3ds 8. Anyway, this is what happens after patching the model.
