I have all the necessary stuff to do it. I only want someone to explain me what to search and change in the .rel files in order to use a custom stage based in battlefield which I want to use wherever; let's say hanebow (electroplankton).

Can I replace characters hexing their respective .rel files too?

Thanks.

He wants to know how to hex edit, not use Stage Switcher.

Open up the .rel you want to convert in HxD.

Look for this string of hex: 38 A5 00 00 38 80 00 01, then replace 01 -- the ID of Battlefield -- with Hanenbow's, which is 25.

So, your string should be 38 A5 00 00 38 80 00 25.

Save this file as "st_plankton.rel", and you're done.

Go here for more info.

I don't know anything about hexing characters; sorry.

Why hex it when there's a program that does it automatically? Maybe I missed the point....

I don't know lol just go along with the topic. He wants to know how to hex edit, so I give him the info necessary to do so. Unless he isn't aware such a program exist, which by all means let him know of it.

Also, Stage Switcher doesn't work for me as it always gives me the error "could not find file '/rel'.".

I've actually never really tried it myself, so I hope it works for the OP. ^_^;

Thanks, it worked. I thought it would be more time-consuming.

Stage Switcher seems to be a useful application. I had tried it previously but at this moment I can't use it due to some problems with my .Net version.

Anyway, your help is appreciated :D

I would use Stage Switcher but I can't due to non-sense errors it gives me, so I was compelled to learn how to hex edit rels with HxD. :(

can this be done for character's as well? cause theres no ike over donkey kong rel[that i can find]and i REALLY wanna put Jrush's could over donkey kong[since it already has a sound file for it for donkey kong despite him not providing the necessary rel]
I WILL GRIND BENEATH MY HEEL...ALL THAT EXISTS!!!
