Mewtwo2000's tools - cBliss Tool updated [21/04/2014]

[Sanitys_Theif]

Copying some post of mine from the cBliss thread to not lose it:

I've made my own code with what I've learned from cBliss, and I'm sharing it for those who want the original css to be kept and extended, as well as adapted for ProjectM.

So these 3 would be the codes to use with the original css files:

This is all very easy. I've made 2 gct files that are just these codes, only that the second one makes default marth to be used in blue team, default squirtle to be used in blue team, and default charizard to be used in red team. It's just to keep the same thing projectm 2.5b offers.

GCT - Original CSS
GCT - ProjectM

The usage is simple, get my GCT Fusionizer tool, rename the file you download from these 2 to 'code.gct', place your current gct (the RSBE01.gct you're using currently, the one without cBliss in it) in the same folder as 'code.gct' and the fusionizer tool, and execute the tool. Just fusionize, and the codes in the downloaded gct will be inserted into your old one.

If you're using ProjectM, you'll need a small fix to make Char/Squirt/Ivy to be expanded. Just find and replace these values in a hex editor, or in the txt if you generate it with the gctedit tool:

804553ac -> 81200fdc
804553b8 -> 81200ff4
804553c4 -> 8120100c

You'll need a different set of icons/css portraits/etc to the ones provided in cBliss. The idea is just adding new images to the original files, so the unused mario01 would use the icon after the last one in the original game, mario07 would come next, and so until we reach mario09. Same to all the characters.

The best way to assure there will be no freezes when using these codes is forcing the iso to have all the extra files related to expanded characters. That can be automatically done with WIT and some batch file I made to go with it. More info can be found here.

Also, here's a common5.pac file prepared to go with ProjectM 2.5b and my code, so the portraits are the originals in ProjectM plus the new ones. If the original cBliss was used, it would work too, but the character costumes would not match.

Common5.pac

Just wanna let you know, these codes don't work with the Riivolution setup for project m :/

[Mewtwo2000]

That's weird O.o

What happens with it? Does it show a black screen? The css isn't modified? Crash when trying to start a battle?

It gives a silent freeze after you pick a stage after I choose an extra costume, I've checked multiple times to make sure everything is named correctly, but it still gives a silent freeze, which I assume is because the Wii is trying load something that isn't there.

The only way I got results was from using the cBliss Riivolution setup with your codes instead of the cBliss ones, the setup is like the gecko setup, but it still freezes pretty regularly after a match is over and tries to go to the results screen, the screen just goes black

[Mewtwo2000]

But you've added some lines to the riivolution xml for ProjectM, haven't you?

Riivolution needs to define which files are supposed to be found in the iso to be replaced with the sd ones, as well as the files which aren't in the iso but are supposed to be loaded from the sd as added files. The cBliss riivolution xml includes the lines to make the extra slots possible, but the Projectm one doesn't.

I didn't see any lines in the cBliss xml that are like that, which ones are they? I'll add it into the project M one and try again, sorry I missed it, I tried hard to try and make it work but I guess I'm not as good at this as I thought I was

[Mewtwo2000]

Unless I'm mistaken, this would be one of the lines, for example:

<folder external="/private/wii/app/RSBE/pf/fighter" disc="/fighter/" recursive="true" resize="true" create="true" />

It would recursively add to the original iso estructure any file or folder inside the fighter folder, what would allow the game to load the costumes not originally in the disc.

I may be wrong anyway.

[Moblin]

If you're getting silent freezes at the SSS, wait for the game to "finish loading" the custom slots. Riivolution loads slow as [censored], and if you don't let it finish, it'll freeze.

Select your characters and let the light on your Wii return to 1 flash per second (or let it stop flashing, if you haven't replaced your Menu music) and it should work. If not, you either named something wrong or your xml isn't properly edited.

The problem is, project M loads the textures from a different file path than that, and I'm pretty sure the resize and recursive actions are already there, why would you need a create action if the folder is already there? In this case, wouldn't the project M xml need some close editing instead of just adding a line? Sorry I'm getting confused here

Alright I added the create actions to the directory where character textures are loaded on the project m xml, but that still didn't work Mew2K, your codes won't load the extra costume files, the only way to make your codes work is with the cBliss setup only with your codes instead of the cBliss ones

This makes me think you made your codes to read the extra costume files from a specific directory, so Riivolution changing the directory would screw that up because the code is searching for the extra costumes in a different directory, this is just a guess, but did you make the codes to search a specific directory?
Post Merge: June 17, 2013, 09:29:06 PM
I just tried multiple directories, still doesn't work :/ sorry Mew2K your setup just isn't compatible with the Project M Riivo setup

Even using the cBliss setup, the game freezes pretty regularly after a match is over, so in all, these codes aren't worth it until someone polishes them up

That's not the problem though, I haven't run into the problem you described even once

[Moblin]

What changes did you make to your xml? I use cBliss with Riivolution perfectly fine.

[Sanitys_Theif]

None at first, didn't load

Then I added the "create" action to the brawlmods/textures/fighter directory of project M, didn't load

Then I used the cBliss Riivo setup with Mew2K's codes, it worked but freezes often after a match is over, doesn't make it to the results screen

To make this easy, could you upload a .rar file of your Project M setup? I'll look at the differences between yours and mine and find out what is going wrong, and I'll test yours out to see if it still freezes, because then it might be my Wii

[Mewtwo2000]

I've updated GCT Analyzer



Just made it capable to detect some more codes, including the cBliss ones.

[Mewtwo2000]

I've polished the cBliss codes, including the original set and the original teams/order sets.

All of them can be found here:

http://www.mediafire.com/folder/4cnt80dm764ru/CBliss

The Stable cBliss is just the original set with less freezes, if any.

The other mod versions use a different place in memory that should be safer and should have less freezes too. One would keep the cBliss order and the other would use the Brawl one. In both cases the color teams are restored to the Brawl defaults (or Project M, if you get the PM sets).

[Mewcario]

In both cases the color teams are restored to the Brawl defaults (or Project M, if you get the PM sets).

So, if I use your stable version, I'll have to change around all my team costumes that are currently compatible with cBliss 1.5 to how Brawl originally read them (ie, FitChar01 isn't always red team)? And, because of that, the Brawl Costume Manager's cBliss setting is no longer compatible with cBliss itself?

does it work with the method i using on Dolphin for load hacks:
use the gecko OS codes in a ini text file method for dolphin?

[Thyrus]

Is this version of cBliss compatible with FilePatch 3.5.3?
Would both RSBE and RSB4 folders be affected by cBliss?
