Hacking [Discussion] Smash WiiU Modding and Help Center

[NAFEDUDE]

Any alternative way to change texture IDs? The method in TS4M's tutorial isn't agreeing with my computer. I know I asked this already, but I figured I'd ask again since more people are here.

changing wario's texture ID causes his eyebrows and mustache to turn red

extracting the textures from the model.nut shows the texture for his facial hair is still black. i don't have the slightest idea why this would be happening

AHA I GOT IT TO WORK. I just did hex edit of ui_sound_db.bin and figured out where to do the edits.

In the first screencap, this section is for Mario Maker. The 34 that is highlighted is hex for 52, which corrosponds to Entry[52] if you viewed this in the param editor.


Second screencap, the 1B that is highlighted represents the number of tracks in the stage, this case 27. Converting 1B to decimal is 27. Simply changing this number to a higher hex value is what determines the number of tracks the stage will have.


Third screencap is for Midgar, as 36 in hex is 54 in the param editor (Entry[54]). I changed the value of the tracks in the stage from 02 to 04 in the next line to have four tracks.

The lines that follow are the tracks themselves. Example would be 01 FA, which is hex for 506, which is Sound506 (Fight On!). All the FFs after the second copied 01 FA 05 are blank spaces and you simply need to add tracks like so:

36 05 - Stage Name (Midgar)
04 05 - Number of Tracks (4)
00 00 - Separator
01 F9 05 - Track 505 (Sound505 in sounds.msbt - Let the Battles Begin!)
00 00 - Separator
01 FA 05 - Track 506 (Sound506 in sounds.msbt - Fight On!)
00 00 -Separator
XX XX 05 - Place for new track (The 05 is basically telling the section to end)
00 00 - Separator
FF FF FF 05 - Blank Space

I decided to copy both stage songs again for the next two tracks, saved the bin and reinserted the file back into data(en-us)/param/ui and rebuild the mod and insert the patch back into the SD Card and ran SD Cafiine and the game booted this time around and thus, going to My Music on Midgar showed four tracks.

Note, that since I copied the same songs in the same stage, adjusting the copied track would affect the original track's adjustment so its best to insert another track from outside the stage or insert a new song altogether. The SoundXXX goes all the way to 600, so I don't know how you would insert more tracks after that, since reusing a song from another stage on Midgar would likely affect the original song from that stage as well, whether its been replaced or not.

Either way, I'm glad I finally figured this out and feel so proud XD

I'm trying to extract a model.nut file with InjectPack, but when I click on Extract and GTX2DDS, a window instantly opens and closes and nothing apparently happens, as no files go into the OutDDS folder. I also installed Phython 2.7 and am on Windows 10. Does anyone know what my issue is? I'm following TS4M's tutorial btw.

How did you change the ID? The method in the tutorial wasn't working for me.

Shift right-click in the InjectPack folder and run a command window, then type in "NUT_check.py model.nut" (without quotes) and hit enter. That will extract them and give you the correct mipmap info. 2 birds 1 stone.

Help I'm trying to use SDCafiine following this guide: http://pastebin.com/t74TiQwT

I get to the part where it attempts to load a video and sends me back to the home button menu, I try and go back to the internet browser but it just loads the default webpage instead of loading SDcafiine.

Im definitely deleting my cookies and I'm doing this for 5.5.1. Also pretty confident my files are in the right place I double checked that. Also I can start the HBC so my SD card should be okay? Any help on this would be great thanks.

Are you using loadiine.ovh? None of the other hosts worked, but when I used that one things were fine. (Not to mention I didn't change my files at all between trying different hosts)

Yeah that's what the guide says to use. It's also how I'm able to load the HBC.

When you come back to the browser, does it load the default loadiine.ovh webpage? If so, make sure you don't clear you cookies ALL the time (I don't, and SDCafiine works perfectly fine)

It loads the default webpage that shows your bookmarks and allows you to access settings. Basically what I'm doing is delete cookies > go to loadiine.ovh > select sdcafiine + kernel > submit > goes to home button menu > click internet browser > loads default homepage.

You have to go to loadiine.ovh again. There, it loads SDCafiine.

Omg it worked ty sooooooooo much you are actually amazing.

There is a dirty way (the one i used), you need to copy the game (without the patch foder) to another folder, once is done you put the mods in the new copy, open it with smashexplorer, and you now see what is inside the packed folders and extract them.

I hope works for you.

I asked the question over on KC:MM, and Nanobuds said that I could use the patch from the pack in place of the update patch that you need to download.

I'm running into this issue, too, on other characters. I change the texture ID, hair turns red (no texture), while all the other textures load fine. I tried a few different texIDs, all got the same result.

Anybody know what's going on?

"Nintendo set the texture ID to 4 x (slot - 1) so avoid using any of those number"
what does this mean?

I'm wondering as well. It's oddly worded. I'd assume it means you can't use, say, 3, 7, 11, etc.

I made a full list of all characters with their IDs

Err... You sure about that? Your list shows that Little Mac is 41. However, ui_character_db shows that he's 39

Character Entries don't always match up with their IDs

Character Entries don't always match up with their IDs

So then what are the character IDs of ui_character_db.bin in the PARAM editor?

Smash Wii U hacking is proving to be way more complicated than it has to be.
