Question about a stock icon mod

[Armored dragon]

Is there a mod where it replaces the stock icons ingame (the generic sphere icons) with the character's stock icons from the results screen and single player thing when you choose the amount of lives you want? basically having the stocks being similar to how they were in melee and SSB64 how it showed the character's head for the stock icons.

I don't know if there is, but since the ordinary CSSes have alpha, I can make it for you, no problem.
If I'm understanding you correctly, you want the SSBB stock icons to be the icons for the characters in the normal "Brawl" mode, right?

If you mean they look like this:

Then yes.

I assume you want Brawl icons for that? If so, it'll be super-fast; if Melee, it will take longer(I'll have some characters to custom-make icons for), and if N64 SSB, it will take a really long time for me to do it.(A lot of characteres to make custom-icons for.)

Brawl icons will work., but it would be a bit cool to have the melee icons. for now just do the Brawl icons. also, I'm using project M 3.02. thank you for your support.

this is an example of what I'm not looking for, but close:http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=203280 I'm sorry if I'm asking for too much at this point, but I thank you for your support.

Btw, I'm almost done with making the mod for you; I am including all Brawl, all Melee, and all SSB64 Stock Icons

Just thought I should let you know.

[Armored dragon]

ok thank you.

Post Merge: July 17, 2014, 05:39:10 AMok I have a very good example that I made in paint.net (it's pretty obvious I photoshopped this) but it show exactly what I want: https://www.dropbox.com/s/eg0v9dkbuy46kx1/SSBB%20scrrenshot%20%28edited%29.png

What my version looks like is identical to what you photoshopped, except for the things listed below:

I did it with all Brawl, all Melee, and all SSB64 characters, not just Lucario
I have only 1 icon there, instead of 3; it looks more to me like you're looking at a stock battle
I actually have the CSS not there, and have just the icon
But seriously, with the CSS and multiple stock icons, that's by playing stock Brawl instead of time
But other than that, the right Lucario icon(of the 3) you have in your snapshot is exactly where I put my icons

As for previews, I literally can't get any.

But, on the bright side, I'm already finished except for one thing: All I have to do is make the background for the CSS completely invisible, so that it's exactly like in Melee.

*I asked for help on this on the forums, so I need them to get back to me before I release the mod.*

[Armored dragon]

ok thank you. just to clarify, I will see multiple stock icons during stock matches right?

[windhunter7]

Yes; Brawl does that by default; I am simply making the CSS turned into icons.
Btw, when someone answers my question about the location of said backrounds, or after a few days, I'll upload the mod to the Vault(It doesn't have screenshots, so I don't need an imgur account yet), and then add the link here.

Ok, I finished making the mod:

I thank you for your effort and I'm sure some else will find this useful, but there seems to be confusion and I think I may have have been asking for too much, in that case, I'm sorry. I meant to say replace the STOCK icons in brawl with the STOCK icons of the character instead of how they are in this picture: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hy1bso6f01jjz17/SSBB%20scrrenshot.png

Ok; now I understand what you meant; but I can't do that; that would need reprogramming, as those dots' colors are dependant on what player it is, instead of what character.
I'm sorry I couldn't help you, but I hope someone else can.

[Armored dragon]

I know. again thank you for effort. you tried. I don't even know if it's possible to reprogram the stock icons to work like how I want them to. nintendo made brawl have all those stock icons for the results screen and whatnot so IDK what was going on over nintendo. they made a lot of changes that were stupid in brawl, like the gravity, tripping, and the generic stock icons. IDK why brawl couldn't use the character's stock icons instead of the generic ones, even smash 4 started using them again. the stock icon things are very minor compared to the other problems in brawl though.
