Hey guys,
So basically, ANY stage download that doesn't come with a .rel file gives me huge problems. I'm trying to add custom stages to the new slots the expansion pack provides, however, I realize that each one of these stages need a .rel...and the downloads that don't come with their own .rel's give me major headaches.
I know about the module file changes, and I know that after "38 A5 00 00 38 80 00" I'm supposed to add a "00" to make the stage compatible with the custom stage expansion slot. However, some stages don't properly work with it...
For example, the Valley of the End V3 (

This stage download didn't come with a .rel pack, so I simply used a default rel for Jungle Japes and module modified it w/ a Hex Editor. The result was the stage only loading the waterfall portion of the stage. The rest is pitch black.
Another example, the Castlevania Clock Tower stage (

Is there an additional step that I need to do to load these tricky stages? Or are they simply hopeless? I use Gecko, and have uploaded many custom stages to the custom slots (but those stages all came with their own .rel files...).
