Aww. That's unfortunate.
Is there an exact file name?
EDIT:
FOUND IT.
It was in the eye Iris. Thanks for the help, Peardian!
Er, that works too, I guess. But when I said eye white texture, I meant "KebakoEyeWhite". Also, the matchup between the different ref/env textures used might not be immediately apparent. You can usually figure it out by looking at the filenames/render, but let me know if there are any you're not sure of.

I'm still working on my next big model, so in the meantime, I figured I would try something out. With much help from DinnerSonic, I was able to translate Brawl's stage lighting parameters to what I use. These screenshots are the result. Before anyone asks, no, these are not model imports. I used real screenshots as a base and added in some of my models with the help of the recreated light data. Pardon the poses, I'm not very good at that. I don't plan on making any more fake screenshots like this, as this was merely a test. The main reason for doing this is so that I can make more accurate Subspace Emissary mockups, as well as test my model textures in something close to the game's actual lighting. Know what else?

Scary accurate as usual, Peardian.
Amazing!

Thanks, guys. I guess I may as well show this, too. It's Ganondorf with Bridge of Eldin's lighting, shadowing, and a little bloom. For those of you interested in learning how to translate the lighting on your own, I'll put a little tutorial below. It's really quite simple. In fact, a number of you regular stage-makers have probably already figured it out.
First off, lights in Brawl have about 200% power compared to what they do in regular modeling programs, or at least as far as characters are concerned. Some other objects may differ in terms of lighting, such as the Pitfall item, which only receives 75% of the light, leading to an appearance of 150%. To set up your light, simply enter the same RGB value that Brawl shows and double the light's strength.
Positioning the lights is easy, but a bit tricky in some places. Brawl's coordinates are Y-up, whereas some modeling programs are Z-up. This means that when it comes time to copy in the coordinates, you may have to put the Y value in your Z coordinate and vice-versa. Also, Brawl's Z-axis is inverted compared to what modeling programs use, so you will have to flip the sign when copying the Z-values.
Aiming the light is easy. First, place the light in the coordinates indicated by the Start XYZ. Then, put a null/empty object at the End XYZ coordinates. Then, simply make the light object aim at/target the null object.
And that's it. With this knowledge, you can now test how your character model will look before you finish texturing it, or you can easily translate the lighting you set up for your stage to Brawl.

I will totally use this guide to get the stage lightning when I do more videos in 3d Modelling program!

Introducing my latest model, the Flying Krock. Click for a bigger pic. It took me nearly three months to make. Read the first post for full details! Download

I don't even know what this is from, but it is amazing. I'd be surprised if you didn't already have a job as a professional 3D modeler. (Unless this is a hobby-and-not-a-career thing. But you could make a good career doing this.)

Both of you owe it to yourselves to go play Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. One of the best DK games and a wonderful platformer.
(and does nobody read the first post?)

1. I didn't both with the OP :v 2. I've played some of the DKC games, but I'm terrible with them and never played through them to the end. I've gotten so used to new games that I remember how hard the older ones were...

Oh my God.
Yo, you need to be making money my dude. You're wasting time and money.
Nobody here is on your level. Not to disrespect anyone, and we have how many amazing artist on this Brawl Hacking community, with all due respect... You're on some other [censored] of quality work man.
And for those who don't know what model that is, like Peardian said go play DKC. ;p
