[Intermediate] 50 Costume Code Implementation Guide

[Ebola16]

There seems to be some major differences between 50 CC and BrawlEx Clone Engine v2.0.0.0 Extended Edition (RSBE.Ver)'s bx_fighter.rel. Porting the changes of 50 CC to BrawlEx Clone Engine v2.0.0.0 Extended Edition (RSBE.Ver) seems like a lot of work.

Oh, the bx_fighter.rel is different? In that case, I have a miniature guide on how to expand costume slots by editing the bx_fighter.rel.

Open bx_fighter.rel in a Module Editor, go to Offset 0x580 in Section[8] and add an equal amount of bytes at the end of every section (there's a total of 0x80 sections in the vanilla bx_fighter.rel, each being 0x20 bytes).

Afterwards, go to Offset 0x3C8 in Section[4] and update 0x00200020 based on how many bytes were added to the costume section.

Example: If adding 0x10 bytes to the vanilla file, 0x00200020 would be updated to 0x00300030.

Though since you'd be doing this with over 200 slots, it's going to be a very long and tedious process, especially if you end up messing up somewhere and having to start over because of it.

After following this, my only issue that I've had is that the costumes past spot 15 don't load in game. I.E It reuses costumes even though the CSP, BP, STC, and RSP are the proper ones. Did I not extend the CSSSlot or Fighter Config properly?

[KingJigglypuff]

I think I might know what the problem could be. Could you add this code to your GCT and relay what happens?

It didn't change anything that I can tell.

I added the code to the end of my codeset so unless it needs to replace something, it didn't fix it.

To clarify the situation, I added costumes to Mario so that he would have 17, however his 16th and 17th costumes reuse his default and his fire mario costumes when loading in game

[KingJigglypuff]

Alright, did you edit your Fighter00.dat to enable the two unknown flags under the costume flags?

[PDubs44]

Yes, I edited both the Fighter config file to have both flags set and the CSSSlot config file to have the needed amount of costumes set. Would it be easier to send you the files or something to take a look?

Has this ever happened before in your experience of testing/bug reports?

[KingJigglypuff]

I only encountered the issue during the very old beta stages of 50 CC and was fixed with the things I mentioned.

If you're not using an extensively edited Project M build, I'd recommend you to take a look at the pre-made build I made for ease of access to advanced features.

[PDubs44]

Ok that sounds like a good idea. Do you have a recommended program for converting the sd.raw file into folders for Wii?

[KingJigglypuff]

If you have 7-Zip, you can open the sd.raw and extract the folders and files and put them onto your SD Card, given you have either Gecko OS (Homebrew) or the Stage Builder exploit file (Hackless) on your physical SD card.

[PDubs44]

Alright great. Thank you so much for your help KJP!
Post Merge: March 17, 2019, 12:47:55 PMI found the issue! It has to do with the codeset in some way. I just have to narrow it down to what code exactly it is.

[Russell_SSB]

I might need to try this on my version of Project M sometime.

[Falcondorf]

Hey KJP love your work, I just wanted to confirm whether or not this would work with LegacyXP or XP Lite, as XP black screens upon boot when i add the masquerade code.

[KingJigglypuff]

In theory, 50 CC should work with LXP-based builds. Just be mindful of file size.

[Falcondorf]

Hmmm it doesn't go past the strap screen, and when I add the 3 lines of code it doesn't make it past the launcher... I'll just stick to regular PMEX I guess
