Yea.. Why not? Just remember, this is the original files of the game and obviously you ll have to pass there to have a clean common5 and/or sc selcharacter

Best color, most stars, and least amount of power. The good life.

You don't need an xml. Replace the CSPs in your Common5.pac in Brawlbox, like you said you're doing, and put that file into the system folder on your SD card.

It goes: Root->private->wii->app->rsbe->pf->system->common5.pac

To replace the in-game battle portraits you'll need to edit the character's InfFaceXXX.brres files, which go in folder ....->pf->info->portrite

And to replace the victory screen icons you'll need to edit the character's MenSelchrFaceBXXX.brres, which go in folder ....->pf->menu->common->char_bust_tex

The selcharacter file is actually part of the common5. You don't need them both. If you're editing the common5 directly, you won't have anything in the menu2 folder.


i just tried that and my wii started screaming at me lol, theres gotta be something im missing here

What's the file size on your common5? If it gets too large, the wii won't be able to load it and it will crash, and you'll get the beep of death. I think the default size is 11.6mb, and you don't want to go over that. Make sure the images you're replacing have indexed colors with the same value as the image your replacing. I just make sure all my icons are 115 colors, that way they're safe no matter what.


yeah the common5 is 11,922kb so thats good and so far ive just tried to use Csps that are on the site, not confident enough to make my own yet =P

Do me a favor. Try using this common5: http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=24566

That one's pre-shrunk, so there's no chance the images you add will push it over the file size. Brawl is really finicky with file sizes, so if it still crashes with that one, then we can definitely conclude it's not the file size that's causing the problem.

Also, is your file named common5.pac or common5_en.pac? The first is for Gecko, the second is for riivo.


nice i guess that was the problem because it works now, thank you so much i really appreciate it

Yep, no problem. Happy hacking.


my next goal is to do battle portraits, victory screens, and possibly names
