The tool is in an unstable state right now, and im working on releasing a new version. Here's the current changelog. Im still working on a neater more convenient way to re-encode the CSP's and that's the main reason i haven't updated. That, and i would like to add a few more nice features

Code Select Expand

====================================
|************ Change Log ************|
====================================

- v0.75a- (6/5/2014)
    Bugs:
. Fixed bug loading clones when the number of configs differ between folder
. Fixed bug Where adding clones to the roster doesn't save CSSRoster.dat
. Fixed bug where clones with no cosmetics would severely confuse the tool causing mismatched fighter data
. Fixed bug where cosmetic form's small name entry overlapped with the CSS name
. Tool will no longer display characters whose configs are below 3F to prevent errors

Features and Improvements:
. Roster editor now has option to create new roster file.
. Added "Patch Module" to Tools menu. open module file, edit slot, then close and save
        . "Reduce Filesize" button now asks to re-encode all CSP's in the sc_selcaharacter as cmpr. Saving a ton of space!

==========Notes==========
. New and experimental modules will be supported when the stable release of BrawlEx v2 is released

For a comparison of filesizes with re-encoding the CSP's, here is some screenshots

"In order to add an id to the Character Select Screen - for this example 3F- replace the value of 29 at the end of the code with 3F and replace the next 00 byte to the right with 29 again. If you run out of zeroes on a line, simply add a new line and pad it with zeroes. Additionally, for every id you add, you will need to increase the CSS Icon Count value by 1."

i colored the parts that it said to change to make it easier to compare. so the finished product should look something like this?

Yes that looks correct to me.

What is the HUD name and what is the Small name (where do they appear)?

The HUD name is the name that appears underneath your character in game. Currently i haven't added it's functionality yet and so if you try to add it it will probably crash the tool.

The small name is the name that appears above the CSS icon on the CSS screen.

sweet thank you ^^ i'll play with it more later then. also can you add the character files to the iso? i try to keep the SD card as small as possible, (i have no SD cards over 2 gigs)  so a majority of my mods are iso based save textures and PSA's and things i'll be changing often.

Right.

BTW, when I try to add the small name, it replaces the CSS name.
Why?

The CSS code is not needed anymore.
Use the CSSRoster.dat

[Thomasco2013]

Sammi, do you have a idea when the next brawlex will be released?

[Sammi Husky]

Again it depends what version he wants to use, if he wants the CSS to stop flickering he might wanna use the CSS code instead.

Sammi, do you have a idea when the next brawlex will be released?

Nope, i have no idea. It's whenever PW gets things tidied up with the unstable build i'm sure.

[Lillith]

Sammi, do you have a idea when the next brawlex will be released?

I've no idea why you're asking Sammi even though PW is the BrawlEx creator...?

:/ my brawl doesn't start. Yesterday I was able to get brawlex to work with 3 characters so today I added around 11, however the cssroster.dat doesn't work for me (the CSS doesn't appear in game) so I use the CSS code, but still use the CSSroster for the brawlextool, the thing is after I removed that file my vbrawl won't start, already tried without any codes and it works normally. Is there a limit for  my SD or perhaphs too many rels wont start the game in some way? please help, normal brawl is too boring

If there's no roster when you're using the CSSRoster, it means you're missing the 'sc_selcharacter' and/or the 'common3' from the BrawlEx CSS Expansion v1.0.0.0... I think.

Or that the CSSRoster.dat has a naming error

[Thomasco2013]

Sorry, my mistake, I'm meant the clone tool sammi developed. Sorry, I always forget a few words that throw off a the meaning of a question.

[jaleiva]

Ok I'll try again from the start, the odd thing is that I was only able to start vbrawl when I changed my codes.gct back to normal and erased the brawlex folder... odd
