YL's Build v3.02-3.3~ Stage Expansion ~ 20+ New Stages and New Skins!

[Y-L]

Well guys, here it is. This is my personal build with all of my favorite mods. I was very conservative as to what I selected to put in my build and only put in the most quality/professional modifications that I found. I am trying to keep this build as clean as possible, which means no 3rd party characters skins and no physical changes to competitive stages, only reskins. This build is highly tailored to competitive players, and as well caters to casual players too. I spent a lot of time making this build as good as it could possibly be. I made all the subtle changes such as creating my own random stage select pictures/changing my music pictures/changing the names to be appropriate/lots of other stuff. Thanks to Toukans for the thread graphics.

(v3.3)


Here is the custom iso builder for Dolphin/USB loaders. To create, put the projectm folder from the build into the iso builder folder, put your brawl iso in, then run the batch file. Here are the files you need if you're on linux, merge it with the builder files.

I am taking requests to include in the build for stages, songs, and character skins. If you want to request anything please read the following:

• Provide a link to the mod. Do not just say "put this in"
• Do not request something that physically changes a tournament legal stage or character
• Do not request a character skin that is completely ridiculous (i.e. neon skins or something that is completely irrelevant to the character)

I will acknowledge every poster's request, but know that I will be very selective with what I put in.

I just moved castle siege to page 2 with SSSeditor.

Going to bump this since it's on the bottom of page 2.

CSS song cycler for the menu songs. Then I can just take yours, and put it on my build :V

Oh
And you might wanna add custom songs for the victory themes. It would be a nice touch.

Updated to 2.0!

Sorry about that, I uploaded V2.1 with some bug fixes. Should be working now!

Thanks mate, the build looks very fresh and interesting

 

[Eisen]

What did you edit in the menu to give it the gridless look? I like it, and I also wouldn't mind editing the grid in various ways.

I found the gridlines in brawl box in mu_menumain and replaced them with a 1x1 pixel.

Updated to 2.3.

3.1 is lookin reaally nice

 

[Vladz0r]

Seems like all the stages at the edges of stage select don't work for me. Not really sure what's up ;s
*Edit*
Trying with your custom ISO builder fixed it, sweet.

I have a question. Do you think you or someone could create a compiler that can just use the cached Brawl files from the ssbb folder, instead of having to decompile the ISO every time? I keep modifying a build of mine and the time to extract the ISO every time just doubles the total time for the rebuilding process.

For testing mods use a virtual SD card and when it feels perfect then make the iso.

Updated to 3.2, no more updates for awhile now.

 

[Gladiator]

Can you tell me how you reverted Falco's sfx back to melee?

It's just a .sawnd file + a FitFalco.pac that works with the .sawnd

 

[Vladz0r]

Mm, personally, I don't really like that orange Final Destination. I'd much rather just have the original Purple FD from Project M or Melee. The Smash 4 HUD is... eh. I'm just sticking with 3.1 for the most part to add in my custom textures ;s

Do what you like, FD is easily to replace, if you want the smash 4 HUD out just export model data 7 from info.pac (the song titles) and replace the info folder with the old one.

 

[Foozal]

I really love the new samus skins for 3.2 (dark samus and shiny ZSS

 

[MegaAmoonguss]

For some reason after every Vs match I have to fight Sonic, do you know why this is?

 

[Y-L]

On Wii or emulator? If on Wii, I think this is because of a gct code I have to unlock certain characters on a new save file. I'll drop that code from the gct and just include that in the iso builder when I next patch this build. If you unlock sonic in Brawl that will alleviate the problem. If you CBA, I can upload a gct for you.

It's on Wii yeah, I thought I had Sonic unlocked in Brawl but apparently not. I'll go do that now and say whether it worked, thanks!

You don't have to do that. Replace RSBE01.gct in the codes folder with this one and you won't have that problem anymore. Sorry about that.

 

[MegaAmoonguss]

Update: I unlocked Sonic in Brawl but for some reason the problem presists :/. Are there any existing GCT files that I could use to fix this maybe? If not I can just wait for the next update. I'll keep trying things though.

 

[MegaAmoonguss]

Posted my other reply before seeing that, thanks a ton!

 

[MegaAmoonguss]

Ok so the new RSBE01.gct file did do something but I'm still having problems. After the first match i played against and beat Sonic as usual, but then after the second match I had to fight G&W. I kept doing this and it kept making me fight new characters and so I assumed after I beat everybody it would be fine. But when I went to fight Falco my Wii froze on a black screen. I rebooted and I had to fight Sonic again. Any idea what's up with this? I don't get this problem when using, say AlbobDS' build, if that's useful information.

I'm going to do some testing and get back to you in a few minutes. I removed the unlock character code (and am trying again with removing the trophy code) and seeing if that fixes it. Without the unlock character code that is the one you currently have so I'm confused as to why that didn't fix it.

 

[Y-L]

Okay so the problem is probably due to having calm lylat cruise.. I'll remove that in the next update. If you want to fix it yourself you can replace all the STGSTARFOX stages in projectm/pf/stage/melee/ with the default project m ones and delete st_starfox.rel in projectm/pf/module.

 

[MegaAmoonguss]

Ok yeah the entire Lylat Cruise stage is glitched lol, I'll replace that for myself. I'll try to figure out my problem some more tomorrow, thanks for the feedback so far though!

What do you mean the entire stage is glitched? It works fine for me, except when you unlock falco. I think it's due to falco spawning on the wrong stage confusing the game since technically it's a different stage.

Huh maybe, that's weird. I tried going to it from the stage select menu and the wii froze again, but after all maybe it was just that one time...

 

[Vladz0r]

You should just write a message next to the download about two different GCTs:
1 that unlocks Ness, Marth, Luigi for people who play on Dolphin, since it unlocks enough characters to be fine for the no-save gameplay.
And then 1 for Brawl that just unlocks all the characters, I suppose. If you use an 'Unlock Everything' code, it should only give the notifications the first time, right?

The readme details this already. I took out the unlock codes in the wii gct since pm auto does that.

 

[Ruzien]

nice build man

 

[Vladz0r]

Hmm, would you happen to know about a code that adjusts how often songs appear on each stage? I really wish I could set all songs to play at an equal amount.

You can adjust that in Settings -> My Music for each stage

I know that, thanks, but I wanted a GCT code for it. I guess there's no reason for someone to have made one, since Netplay isn't as prevalent as actual Wii builds where settings are saved in between games. I tried learning about making GCT codes and memory editing, but wasn't able to find song adjustment values.

There really ought to be a way to do this, though, because things like random stage selection have been adjusted for the Community Build of Project M, and is in one of the Melee Netplay codes. Wonder who I could ask to try and make a gct for this...
