ROM Hack [Release] MSBT Editor Reloaded

[soneek]

Its a long shot, but would this help? http://rhcafe.us.to/?page=wiki&id=MSBT_(File_Format)

Edit: @Kinnay clarified the checksum. You'll need to AND the value with 0xffffffff before doing the modulo, since the 3DS and Wii U only handle 32 bits of data. I sent IcySon55 detailed information on how to add new entries, now that we can move forward with validating them.

Hey @IcySon55, I found an MSBT file that won't load.

 

[IcySon55]

@AboodXD Can you provide an example file?

Yo, trying to use MSBTE to screw around with the poweroff splash screen, but going to Tools>Manage LZ11>Compress (or decompress) doesn't do anything. With the UMSTB extractor, though, it brings up the prompt just fine. Is it just me?

Use 0.8.5, I had the same problem on latest.

I'm trying to edit the msbt files but they doesn't work at all. i extracted menu.msbt, edited some stuff with the editor, replaced it with smash file explorer and packed the mod.

Am i missing something?

is the ability to add strings to an msbt file a planned feature? that's a feature that would be useful for smash, since adding alt costumes with different names causes it to try to load strings that don't exist in the file

I'll give you mine it's from Nintendo 3DS Camera, it's compressed so decompress it after unpacking.

It is a planned feature and is currently in alpha. I'm not satisfied with the current state that it's in but I also don't have time right now to work on the tool.

Thanks for the example file @tomx86.

Hey there, is there any way to add a new string to file? Or copy an existing one, and then edit it?

Did you somehow miss the reply just above yours?

Haha whoops, my bad, I replied when I had the first page pulled up as I was reading over the OP. Thanks though.

@IcySon55 I guess the 0.86. break the LZ11 (de)compress windows to appear.
I press Decompress, but nothing happen

Yes v0.8.6 did break that De/Compression windows. Please use v0.8.5 for LZ11 for now. I don't have time to release a fixed version right now.

I really don't know why, but when I use a .lz file (and I'm sure is a LZ11 file, because this : https://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-edit-the-homemenu.424449/);
the next error appears

The provided stream is not a valid LZ-0x11 compressed stream (invalide type 0x64)

Can anyone help me?

 

[IcySon55]

Sadly, I can't help you @nooby89. The LZ11 De/Compression tools in MSBT Editor Reloaded are the only parts that I kept from @exelix11's editor.

As I didn't write that code, I really have no idea. From the error message, your files aren't actually compressed with the same LZ11 compression? The file you provided is using LZ64 compression?

 

[nooby89]

Yeah, this is the same LZ11 compression.
Anyway.

What file are you trying to open ? I just used v0.8.5 to decompress \message\EU_Italian\menu_msbt_LZ.bin and it worked.
That "(invalid type 0x64)" means that the first byte of your file is 0x64 and not 0x11 that's how should be in a LZ11 file,probably your file is corrupted or it's not LZ11 compressed.

 

[nooby89]

OK I will try with the file you named juste to view.

 

[Zarklord]

@IcySon55 how can you match the dev name eg MmelCharaC_05_Pikmin to the in game name eg ALPH is it the weird characters before the dev name or what?
