Whenever I add the picture to the unedited one, the file size increases. However I was told that file size changes weren't a big deal with the common5.pac.
The SD loader can load stuff from menu2 alright. You can use the SD loader to replace the file that names the music titles in the my music menu. Dantarion on smashboards made a youtube vid naming the path you need to use since appearantly the file patch code doesn't do it the way the game does.
I'd link to the video or even smashboards but my school computer currently allows me to do niether and proxys all suck.
No. Music titles dantarions replaces are in Menu2. As for as I know, some, or most things in Menu, are not SD loadable, and with Menu2 not SD loadable at all.
The vid I was talking about. Also, he said this on smashboards not too long after he posted the vid.

So you guys, you can modify all the menu2 files now. Someone make me a Brawl+ title screen and ill make a vid on youtube. Or at least someone get me links to the art.
IF YOU REALLY WANNA TRY FRY YOUR WII, make an attack with 0 lag, a huge endless animation and have rapid fire, my wii just turned off on me when i did that, but my wii didnt fry (it took a couple of minutes before it would turn on again, though, i probably jjust shorted its circuit temporarily).
I know this was posted a while back...and that it's currently unrelated. But how long did you Wii take to turn off when you tried this?

That's one of the pictures that crashes. With brawlscape or smashbox, I inserted them. I removed the magenta from that specific picture, went as far as to reindex it according to the picture I was replacing, and it still freezes.
Alright. So far, I've had no success properly replacing anything. tHe game freezes right before it has to load the CSS screen.
I've been using the magic wand to delete the magenta backgrounds(getting checkered backgrounds) and I've been saving the images as pngs. I've extracted the in game CSPs, edited the images I wanted over those, and then saved. What am I doing wrong?
Edit: Possible success afterall. I managed to replace kirby's gray CSP with a picture of Zero(KDL3). Ignoring the fact that kirby's name blocks Zero's eye, the only problem I have is photoshop would only let me paste zero over kirby in grayscale.
With Zero, indexed the original pic before replacing it myself. The other pictures I tried to replace didn't need to have me do this, since they were all indexed already.
As STASH, ASH, and CUPASH currently refuse to detect ntcompress(for over two months now), I decided to use smashbox in order to change textures instead.
The problem? Holy crap, the common5.pac is huge. Is there a list of IDs and such stating where the character textures can be found in the first place? Right now, I'm just traying to change the CSPs. I'll get to the battle portraits later.
