i double click the tool in the correct folder, and nothing happens, does anybody know what causes this? Do i have to run a command?

Seems like it destroyed my dump of the game.

Initially it had replaced the CSP's of the Mii's with Mario's, and after trying out the "Fix Missing Characters" box it makes the game crash after selecting Smash. (even after removing the modded files)

You're not supposed to modify the original dump. You're supposed to copy the files you want to modify, and then keep the final version. Sm4sh explorer does this automatically

I had the Mario portrait Mii issue again after setting Greninja to have 10 skins. I had already set Wario and Ness to have 9 and Greninja also had 9 previously before I set it to 10. I know this is apparently still a common issue, but I figured I'd report it anyway if that offers any help.

Same here, do we maybe need to fix Mii fighters after every change?

Open your modded ui_character_db with param editor. Go to entry 81. Change the value of line 0 to 200. This worked for me; the fix missing characters setting never did anything for me (except enable giga bowser and Big Mac on random character selections). Hopefully this helps others

Entry 81 is for the miis. Line 0 is the cosmetic id, which I believe controls the icons used in the character selection screen. 200 must be a hard-coded value for the picture the miis are supposed to use.

Oh, I should have said I read how to fix it--I was just reporting an occurrence of the program doing this and the circumstances of such.

Thank you, regardless.

So, I have done Smash 4 Modding for quite a bit now. (Even if it was simple things.) But, I am having an issue with trying to get this to work. I have installed Python 2.7 and the 1.1.0 version of the CSS Editor. However, whenever I go to place files into the directories you have listed, the file doesn't appear, and it says the CSS editor has a forbidden extension, and the file does not appear in the folder. I would really appreciate if anyone could help me with this.

I have a suggestion for the next update.

Possibly a way to change the character's series icon?

You could take information from here: http://sm4sh-hacking-research.wikia.com/wiki/Ui_character_db.bin

Yeah sure Seg, it's not hard and I kinda just forgot to do it. I'll add it tonight probably. I'll tell you on discord when I upload it.

It's here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/p46cjp27qe27v9z/CSS Editor v1.2.0.pyw?dl=1

What does "probably fixed cosmid issues for random" mean? Does this fix the Mario icon over miis, or is this something else?

It has a menu option to fix the random's cosmetic id, running it once or twice has been reported as a working solution to the problem making miis/random looking like mario. Not been able to test it myself (barely had the net to post it). Sorry for the scotch tape solutions but I can't do much better atm. All it does is change entry 59 value 0 to 200 and if that has already been done change entry 81 value 0 to 200.

Don't be stupid I told you 5 minutes later that it wasn't the issue. Please stop messaging me. As for why I disappeared it's because I don't have time or Internet.

No you didn't, you didn't even tag me ever since. If the db.bin wasn't the issue, then what could it be? I tried removing the skins and it still does that.

Hi, 3DS user here
This has probably been asked previously but is this compatible with 3DS?
If it is, does anyone know how to add additional costumes to a character? I want to do what TS4M did with Captain Falcon on Wii U.

Hello, jam1garner here with another tool to make modding smash 4 easier.

This is my CSS Editor. What can it do? It can...

Rearrange the CSS order

Quickly change the costume number of a character

Change the cosmetic ID of a character quickly with a easy to use list of names for changing the look of a character on the CSS

Enable/Disable Characters to take them off and put them on your CSS

Change the default rules

Game type

Stock Count

Time Limit and Stock Time Limit

Handicap/SD Penalty/Damage Ratio

Stage Select Type

Customs, Pause, Team Attack, Percent Display, Score Display (On/Off)

"Fixing" Missing Characters, This turns all the dummy slots into characters so you can quickly add things like giga bowser, giga mac, etc.

Modify special rules. (Added in version 1.1.0)

More coming soon!

Usage:
Put this in the same folder as ui_character_db.bin and global_parameter_menu.bin and run it with python 2.7 installed. Edit what you want then hit save.
These can be found in:
/data(xx_xx)/param/ui/
/data(xx_xx)/param/global_parameters/

Hope you like it and give me some feedback/bug reports below!

Known issues:

May cause issues with CSS selection pictures.

May cause issues with sound test.

Special thanks to my testers:

SonicBrawler

Rando/randomneeess

Spark31

Y2K

Super big thanks to Sammi Husky for all his documentation on how param files work!

Warning: Using the "Fix Missing Characters" option will permanently alter your ui_character_db.bin copy. Side effects such as CPUs getting finals smashes as their character when picking random may happen, so please be careful. If you want to revert this your best option is to extract it with sm4shexplorer again and start over.

Edit 5/28/2016: Version 1.0.1 has been uploaded, download link has been updated. Fixes mii selector looking like mario if you used Fix Missing Characters and now provides an error message if you are missing files in your folder.
Edit 5/30/2016: Version 1.1.0 has been uploaded, download link has been updated. Moves "Fix Missing Characters" down to avoid accidental clicks and adds default special rule editing.
Edit 6/17/2016: Version 1.2.0 has been uploaded, adds an option that probably fixes cosmId issues for random as well as series ID editing.

Awesome Editor, thanks for realising this.
By the way. Its kinda possible to have separate Mii Brawler, Swordman and Gunner and still have the normal Mii icon?
