yup open the file in hxd or somethign and edit that spot

...so if I were to use an unused slot like "Z56", what do I put in the slot?

[SonicBrawler]

38, sonce that is 56 in hex.

[KeiroStarr]

38, sonce that is 56 in hex.

...then where does the Z come in?

[Makarew]

...then where does the Z come in?

The first letter just stands for the series it comes from. For example, A is the Mario series.

What character did you cloned? Sonic?..
This is because you didn't add the in-game portrite to the character you cloned, so go to info/potrite and create: "InfFace1101" then add the BP's, and It should work and it appears the Yellow Alloy Name because you haven't added the "MenSelchrChrNmS.1101" to your info.pac and add the Franchise emblem too "MenSelchrMark.21" (I'm using the 3F slot)

Your advice helped me find the issue :D The program encoded the BP image in the wrong format.
It worked now. Thanks!

tell me which clone you have on which character that is giveing you the problem, because i have a feeling i know what your problem is and i think i know how to fix it too.

i think you may need to fix this problem without the clone tool because the problem you are experiencing is the same one i had with my jiggly puff a while back except my when my jiggly puff froze it said green alloy instead of yellow alloy, the way i fixed it was by first making sure my battle portrite was named right and by making sure it was in the right folder by lookin up brawlex tourials on youtube, on youtube there is a tutorial that tells you a different way to set up the battle portrites so the'll work and the way you set them up is far easier than sammis video on how to set them up, if you would like i can get you a link to the video i used to set up my battle poritrites of my clones.

Hi thanks for the response but the clone (LucasEx in slot 3F) is actually NOT what's giving me a problem. That works. However, my REL ported PSAs are the ones that cause the game to freeze.. I'm assuming that the modules are the issue but these PSAs worked before I started using BrawlEx but not anymore. Do you think any other files for BrawlEx could conflict with REL ported PSAs?

EDIT: Okay I got one rel ported character (Roy over Marth ported to Diddy) to work but as soon as his entry is about to play at the beginning of the battle the game freezes. I thought this was strange because I have an entry file for him and even without the entry file the game still freezes.

The first letter just stands for the series it comes from. For example, A is the Mario series.

but then how would Brawl Ex know I'm using the unused Y and Z IDs?

[r_stronghammer]

Guys, you gotta help me... My clone is crashing and I don't know why! It crashes when he enters the battle. Like, Mario jumps out and it says "3"! and then it crashes. I have the filler files, and I have the correct module. HELP! (P.S. The clone is Dark Link)

Hi. Does your module have the correct slot ID in its hex code? Clone slot IDs start at 3F, and then go 40, 41, etc.

what? no. not even close

but then how would Brawl Ex know I'm using the unused Y and Z IDs?

its alreayd preprogrammed to take in the Z ones.

[r_stronghammer]

Hi. Does your module have the correct slot ID in its hex code? Clone slot IDs start at 3F, and then go 40, 41, etc.

Yeah, it has the right ID. It's ID 61. Does that slot have any glitches like slot 54?

Oh, and the clone is over Marth. It's not the CSPs or BPs because I tested it with marth's BPs.

[moydow]

its alreayd preprogrammed to take in the Z ones.

Actually, this isn't the case. It isn't pre-programmed to use any group of tracks. The letter Z just identifies it as one of the various fanfares used in the game (victory themes, "new trophy", "game over", etc), similar to how the letter I identifies F-Zero songs, or A identifies Mario songs. If you wanted to, you could use any of the stage BGMs as a victory theme.

For example, ROB's victory theme is Z35.brstm. Open his SlotConfig file (Slot26.dat) in a hex editor, and you get this:


53 4C 54 43 00 00 00 30 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 23 FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF
00 00 28 5C 19 CC CC CC CC CC CC CC CC CC CC CC


The numbers in red (these start at location 0x20 - in HxD, with default settings, this is at the start of the third line) are the hex ID of ROB's victory theme (note that 0x0000285C refers to neither "Z" nor "35"). Say you want to replace it with the Mute City theme - filename I01, hex ID 0x00002778. Replace the numbers in red above with Mute City's ID:


53 4C 54 43 00 00 00 30 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 23 FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF
00 00 27 78 19 CC CC CC CC CC CC CC CC CC CC CC


Save this as /private/wii/app/rsbe/pf/BrawlEx/SlotConfig/Slot26.dat. Load the game, play as ROB, and win. You should be greeted by the Mute City theme (or whatever else you might have as track I01).

...not that you'd actually use Mute City as a victory theme, since it just loops endlessly :P I just did that as an example, you'd want to replace I01.brstm with an actual victory theme if you planned on doing this.

(this example can apply to any character, for using any track as their victory theme - just use the appropriate base SlotConfig file, and change the hex ID to point to the desired victory theme.)

@KeiroStarr: as far as I can tell, the only way to give clones their own victory themes is to overwrite existing BRSTMs, but as above, you don't necessarily have to replace other victory themes. You could put your clone's victory theme over a stage BGM you don't particularly like, set that BGM to never load in My Music, and edit the SlotConfig so it loads the correct file instead of the original character's victory theme (in the SlotConfig file, the victory theme ID will always be those four bytes at 0x20, and the first two bytes will always be 00 00). You can't just pick a random number like Z66 that doesn't already exist, and expect it to work, since it won't have a hex ID within the game's coding pointing at it.

(I have a full list of song/SFX hex IDs that I found somewhere else on this forum or another, but I don't remember where exactly, and I don't want to just repost them without giving credit. I'll try and find the original post, and add it here later)

EDIT: Okay I got one rel ported character (Roy over Marth ported to Diddy) to work but as soon as his entry is about to play at the beginning of the battle the game freezes. I thought this was strange because I have an entry file for him and even without the entry file the game still freezes.

Is this the port you're using? If so, all you need from there to get Roy working in BrawlEx are the files in the "For yah boy" folder. The ft_diddy.rel probably doesn't work with BrawlEx (which I suspect may be your problem - please correct me if I'm wrong!) - you'll need to use Marth's ExModule, which should have been included in the BrawlEx download. Open it with the module editor, and click on "ft_marth BX V1.1.rel". On the right, change the ID to 0x90 (or something else if that's already used). Click on the (+) to expand the menu, go to section [8], and click "Memory viewer". In the next screen that appears, double-click the highlighted section, and change 11 to 40 (or whichever ID you used for Roy). Close, and save the file as <sd>/private/wii/app/rsbe/pf/module/ft_roy.rel (don't save it over the original Marth REL!). This is working for me, at least - let me know if it still won't work for you.

Guys, you gotta help me... My clone is crashing and I don't know why! It crashes when he enters the battle. Like, Mario jumps out and it says "3"! and then it crashes. I have the filler files, and I have the correct module. HELP! (P.S. The clone is Dark Link)

Sounds like the module to me - did you change the IDs in the module itself (like I said above)?

Okay, so I've got one that's been bugging me for a few days now. No matter who I clone to 5C ends up freezing the game at the stage select (if using a gamecube controller; silent freeze) or when the stage starts to load the character (if using a wii controller; loud freeze). I'm not sure why.

I thought it might be an issue with the CSS but after replacing all the CSS pics it still freezes. I've found that the character CAN work, but only if you don't change the CSS picture using the CloneTool.

Now, I may be a bit picky, but it would bother me having two of the same character on the same screen and I'd like everyone to have their own pic. I've been using the newer clone tool (75a) to do all the modding thus far on this version. Is there any way to make my 5C slot load a  picture without freezing? Has anyone else had this problem?

Have you checked your battle portraits filesize I had a similar problem with Mewtwo for quite some time. Turned out the filesize was one KB over what the other BPs have.
