Yeah, why did you make those?

*sweats*

How do you edit bgenv file? I want to make dMC and dBB to be night.

As I stated on MV, I have no clue where either of those files are.

Mute city in vol\aoc0005000c1010ec00\0013\course
Big Blue in vol\aoc0005000c1010ec00\0019\course

 

[Ray Koopa]

All DLC track files are stored in vol\aoc0005000c1010ec00 (USA) or vol\aoc0005000c1010ed00 (EUR) (same applies to JAP). There are folders for each cup in it. Except for the course_muunt_200.byaml, which is funnily stored in the original vol\content\course\TrackName directory. I wonder who planned that.

(DLC track names start with D rather than G.)

course_muunt_200.byaml is an optimized BYAML used in 200cc instead when it exists*, including "200ccAdjuster" objects, basically areas increasing gravity (controlled by the first two parameters), so you don't fly away after a ramp. It's a good idea to keep these objects when you modify the objects of the track in the normal BYAML (if you dont wanna apply object mods to both files, you can just copy the 200ccAdjusters over from the the orignal 200.BYAML, ID is 8029, and store it as 200.BYAML). I even increased their gravity for 300cc mods.

*=I don't know how the game knows when to load a 200.byaml. Maybe there's a param in the normal BYAML, as that gets queried anyway before. I didn't check for that yet though.

How do you edit bgenv file? I want to make dMC and dBB to be night.

You do the following:
- You just replace the *.bgenv file of the track with the one of a night track (Toad's Turnpike, Music Park). That changes the lighting.
- In the (200cc) BYAML file, enable headlights (at the very top).
- In the (200cc) BYAML file, find the name of the skybox object (they start with VR* and there's only one). Find the ID to it in obflow.byaml. Replace both ID and name with the skybox of a night track (e.g. VRCosmos from MusicPark or VR64Highway for Toad's Turnpike IIRC). Change the ID in the object list also.
- Replace the "Sun" object with a "Moon" (same procedure).

On another note: Do we really wanna call environment lighting mods "Texture" mods? There's no texture changed.

I kinda got it tho it seems as I did something wrong. I guess for some think it's a texture mod due to the background being change. They assume the person who did colored everything dark.

The only folder I can find under vol is the standard content folder.

Also, every course I see only comes with a byaml 200 and a bflim :/ (ripped from UWizard with Wii u common key)

 

[Ray Koopa]

You cannot download those DLC files with UWizard. You need to dump it with Cafiine Server or TCPGecko.

You probably forgot to edit the Object ID in the object array. Thus no Skybox is placed at all, leaving the previously rendered stuff in the backbuffer (the game doesn't clear it).

 

[DarkHydra]

Can y'all make a Nighttime Big Blue, Mute City and Excitebike Arena? Infact Nighttime every Day Course, Daytime every night course

 

[GoldYoshi]

I also broke the sky trying this on SSC

 

[victormr21]

Someone knows how to make a new page on MK8 Wiki? I find a page that doesnt exist but dont appeare nothing to create the page.
EDIT: Is for add Space Toad

Thanks @Ray Koopa, I got it working on (GCN) Yoshi Circuit. I should be able to create an all night mod pack before anyone else. Though it seems as I was not able to change the moon in (SNES) Rainbow Road. The Sun (6008) and Moon (6010) object ID seem to be different for DLC.

You can check ObjFlow.byalm to get all the Obj IDs (iirc)

I almost forgot to check in there. Thanks!

 

[Ray Koopa]

There seem to be different Suns and Moons, SunInf / SunInfY (same for Moon). Probably just how their distance is computed (as Y is up in MK8) or whatever... I already did some night time changes here and there. Maybe you want a quick tutorial?

 

[Deleted User]

There is a XYZ axis near the object ID. I'm gonna try this on the Sunset for Dragon Driftway and see if I can move it.

 

[Ray Koopa]

Otherwise it's just the Translate attribute which is the absolute position on track.

 

[Deleted User]

I'm no good with XYZ axis.

 

[Ray Koopa]

Y is up, X is left right, Z is near / far.
Y is easy to figure, but X and Z depends on how the race is oriented at the start.

And yes, it needs a visual editor damn soon... xD

 

[duffmmann]

Can Rainbow Road (64) be edited to make it 3 laps again instead of just one lap with 3 sections. One lap is just too short in my opinion.

 

[Ray Koopa]

It's fucked up there because it's a section track. If you set it to 4, the CPU will still drive only 1 lap, but you have to drive 4. Same goes to laps 5-7. Laps 1 or 2 just make you drive 1 or 2 sections (3 is the original value).

I think MrBean patched it to behave "correctly".
