can this work on dolphin using gecko? I think yes, right?

i think
but can it can using dolphin without gecko but still using file patch code in a txt file

It's still related to the codes in the OP, ergo it's on-topic.

The thread author mentionned that they had to be used at your own risk, and advised to backup your saves. And you guys have already mentionned your stuff. You said it once, no need to repeat it every single time someone says it works fine for them. That would be the definition of spammy.

I don't really care about all that PMBR secrecy jazz and whether those codes are actually faulty or not. But this topic isn't going to become another place here for PMBR members to have an argument with other hackers. So whatever the heck P:M has to do with these codes really doesn't need to be discussed here.

And in the mean time, I suggest that everyone here uses these codes with caution, and suggest that people who reported crashes with those double-check that it isn't caused by another faulty modification of the game. Or that these codes aren't different from what they believe are outdated codes.

[secretchaos1]

Well it sounds like people are having a good experience with these in general, and even if saves corrupt they can easily be restored so it's not like there's any permanent damage to be caused.
It's too bad there isn't a code that could just prevent saving altogether to avoid the corruption, I mean it's not like we even need to use saved data outside of taking snapshots.
I'll definitely be giving this a shot later.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but there is no such thing as "years taken" progress, there really isn't.
The only thing that influences the AI 'smarts' is the CPU level, and that's it.
And besides, this isn't the place to talk about this, so I suggest to drop the subject.

I just want to say my bit, and then I'll drop the subject.
Whenever I go to record my vids of my hacks, I always do stamina, Hearts & Tomatos & Food, 100hp for me and 300hp for the lv9 CPU. Now whenever I lose and try again, the CPU gets harder, and after say the fifth battle, the CPU is like impossible to beat. So I close Dolphin, and open it back up, and the lv9 CPU doesn't play as hard. And I'll be playing on the same stage and with the same characters and always against a lv9, only thing that'd be different in the fight besides me and the CPU would be when and where items spawn, which in this case is just food.
Now of course I know nothing about AI, so there's probably some logical explanation, but this seems to only happen to me, so my only guess is the fact that I'm using Dolphin. :-/
Anyways just wanted to throw that out there because I actually saw someone talking about AI acting differently from other people's games, but I'm dropping it now okay? I guess one way to discuss would be through PM, if you have more to say about it, to avoid filling up this thread.
On Topic: I would love to know if this will work with Dolphin since you have to use WiiSchrubber to replace the files, and the File Replacement code crashes the emulator. My guess would be no, but hey you never know.

[secretchaos1]

So I tried using the example codes in the tutorial, just to see how glitchy the experience would actually be, and I'm getting Marth's CSS slot appearing as Donkey Kong on the CSS (still loads Marth however) and the extra slot looking like Donkey Kong and causing a crash when trying to load a stage.
Is there some kind of error in the example codes? Or would other codes perhaps interfere with this? Just kinda curious to what you've combined this with since you've seemed to have a good experience so far.

Same problem on my game.

Also make sure the files are named correctly and that you have them all.
You will need:
FitRoy.pac
FitRoy00-05.pac
FitRoy00-05.pcs
FitRoyFinal.pac
FitRoyDark.pac
FitRoySpy.pac
FitRoyMotionEtc.pac
ft_roy.rel

If you're missing any of these it will most likely freeze when the game tries to load them and can't find them.
Make sure the PSA and models you're using even work in the first place.
Also make sure you're using Marth's P&P [Assuming the PSA is based on Marth] and that you set the ID correctly on the rel.

If there were some parts of the tutorial hard to understand please say so.

And yes this does work on a maxed out CSS with alloys and ind. Pokemon, as well as on dolphin.

[secretchaos1]

Alright, gonna give it a try again. I figured something was buggered with the codes since Marth and Roy show up as DK CSPs on the CSS when I figured they'd both use Marth's. Anyway, I'll set those codes up again and give it another try. I'm using Thany's Decloned Roy as suggested in the tutorial, following it all exactly as is to see if it'll work before tweaking it to my own preference.

EDIT: Ok, using the set of codes you just posted the CSS is looking right now, so I'm assuming something is buggered up in one of the tutorial codes. Still getting a crash whenever I try to load a stage as Roy, I'm using the set of files with Thany's De-cloned Roy and the Marth Plug and Play Module linked in the tutorial, with its id set to 0x27 like it says to in the tutorial. Gonna try to switch around files a bit and see if I can get normal Marth to load from it using fitroy files.

EDIT x2: Now I see the problem, I didn't realize there was a difference between module ID and Character ID. You should probably make a little link to Phantomwings tutorial on how to use the plug and play modules there too, just so people have an idea of where to change the character ID since the module ID seems more obvious when first opening the file.
It's working fine now, there doesn't seem to be any glitchiness happening yet aside from the CSS having a little lag when reloading. Gonna play around with it for awhile and I'll report back if I find any issues.

[ASF1nk]

Try this.

Inside the 'roy' folder just copy what's inside the 'Costumes and moveset files' folder in Decloned Roy's rar.
Copy the files as is.

Edit: Alright, I'll edit the first post.

[secretchaos1]

Oh sorry, I was just editing my last post here to avoid double posting. But yeah it's working fine now. Great stuff here, I'll post back if I find any issues or glitches going on.
Thanks for putting this up and helping me out with my issues!

Edit: Not sure if it's related to the P&P modules or the codes used here, but characters based on Pit cannot use their Final Smash. It just uses their base special move instead and the Final Smash never gets activated. That's the only bug I've got so far.

[ASF1nk]

Which Pit PSA were you using?

[secretchaos1]

Tried both Goku and Waluigi, both of them can't use the final smash. It doesn't crash or anything though so it isn't a horrible bug, just inconvenient.

EDIT: oops, nevermind stupid me. I just forgot the ft_ in the module's filename, that was dumb of me. Gonna test Link out again in a bit.
EDIT 2: Yep, Link works fine too.

Aside from that though Mewtwo works just fine, probably not going to test any others for now.

[ASF1nk]

Well both Goku and Wualuigi PSAs don't have a FitPitFinal.pac, so that's probably why.
I tried one PSA that does have a final.pac and it worked.

I also edited the OP to make some steps clearer.
I also added a start up set up, with GTC and module for Roy or any Marth PSA really.

And thanks for testing Link and Lucario as well. I have only tested Marth, Ike, and Pit so far.

[GanonZack]

I probably should have asked this before but, do you know if this works with Riivolution?. I edited the xml just in case (adding the Roy folder and all the other things), but it doesn't seem to be read at the start of the match, because it freezes.

[secretchaos1]

Ah I see what you mean there. I'm gonna try throwing in Pit's default file and see if it'll work then. Also gonna give a few other popular PSA's a shot with this when I have some time after.

Edit: Yeah, if you just include the default FitPitFinal file with any Pit PSA it'll allow it to do the final smash as usual, just tested it with Waluigi and he's working fine now.

Edit2: Got my first random crash from going between the CSS, main menu, and trying to go back into the CSS. Since I don't typically exit out of the CSS much I'm not worried about that crash, but I'll let you guys know if I start experiencing them anywhere else. I've done quite a few matches as various different psas though and I'm not getting any other issues.
