The Complete N00B's Guide to Brawl Hacking

[(specter)]

A little confused... So I download one of the hacked levels and put it in the folder and it'll work?

Yeah. Just make sure the file that you downloaded is the same name as the level you're replacing -- the same fashion as how you renamed your Mephiles Sonic texture. Example: You download a stage hack that goes over 75m and it is named "STGZONE3.PAC" -- rename that to "STGDONKEY.PAC" as that is the name of 75m's file.

For audio, same thing. Rename your custom music to whatever one in Brawl you want to replace. Example: You download a song from the Black Eyed Peas named "A05.brstm" and you want to replace the Battlefield song with it. Rename this file to "X04.brstm" as that is the name of Battlefield's Battlefield song.

Refer to this guide for a list of the stages' names.

Ok few2 more questions. Now some of the levels include some sort of rel file. What exactly do I do with those?

Also how do I get the alloys onto the character selection so I can hack those?

Rel files just allow you to play a stage over another one. For example, if you get a stage that's based off of Final Destination and you want to play it over Flat Zone 2, you would get Final Destination's .rel (st_final.rel) and use a program called Stage Switcher to convert the st_final.rel into a st_gw.rel (Flat Zone 2's rel), and also make sure the .pac is also named "STGGW.PAC". You can also use HxD to hex edit the rels to get the same result.

To get alloys you'll need ASF1nk's Custom CSS. Go to this thread, make sure you read it very carefully, then go to the bottom and get the codes that you need for the Alloys.

Ok thanks. And I gotta ask, do you know where I can get a Sonic PSA to replace ness, lucas, or donkey kong? I've been searching but I just cant find one.

If you can't find it in the Brawl Vault it doesn't exist; the Brawl Vault is the only place on the web that I know of where you can get hacks.

dumb question.
why do people write reserved as the first post of their hack thread?
are they reserving the hack so no one else could do it?

Its in case they need to edit something and they've past the limit of characters in a post...I think. :srs:

Ok so I finally got around to adding Giga Bowser and them, and I added the GCT file at the bottom that included everything and when I go to play as one of them, the game freezes? What do I do?

Do you have their .pac files? Like FitGKoopa.pac, FitZakochild.pac (Yellow Alloy), etc. in their respective folders of the same name.

Actually I dont think so. Where do I go to get missing .pac files?

But it like freezes every time I go to the stage select screen after the characters. And it doesnt matter who I use now. It freezes with everybody.
