Beta version 6.1.1 beta10

[Dejital]

For the two new ways, were you using the way like "_allciByRGBA.png", or the other way?

I used the _allciByRGBA.png way.

Edit: Nevermind, I din't use _allciByRGBA, but _ciByRGBA. I have yet to get _allciByRGBA to work anywhere. :yucky:

Example:

 

[Dejital]

I'm having trouble. I've been retexturing Fifa 99 (which uses mainly ci textures) and I can't seem to get many things to work in-game. I have retextured the soccer ball, which worked, but retexturing things like grass and billboards (using the same strategy I went for with the ball), isn't working.

aperbag:

First one works, second one doesn't (you can see I'd rather have the second):

Thanks Rice!!
The ci textures replacements are working as I expected

Try to rename the second one to "FIFA 99#E3FFB1AC#2#0_allciByRGBA.png", and make sure it is 32-bit.

 

[Dejital]

That didn't work... I'm pretty sure that it's 32-bit, cause I saved it the same way I did the soccerball, but does anybody know how I can check the bits per pixel?

 

[Rice]

Dejital

Your file is in 24bit, not 32bit.

To check it with Windows Explorer, right click the file, click on the popup menu item [Properties], a dialog window will open up. Click on the [Summary] tab, and then check the "Bit Depth" value. For 32-bit images, Bit Depth=32, for 24-bit images, Bit Depth=24.

I am using Windows XP sp2.

 

[Dejital]

Oh, I got it. It seems whenever I try to save a png with no transparency, Paint Shop Pro automatically converts it to 24 bit. I put in a 99% pixel and it worked! A very very simple solution, I love it when it ends like this.

I believe you I had to do the same for PSP9. I wonder if PSP has a workaround for this. :huh:

 

[Rice]

You can add a mask layer or something like that, than save the file. Photoshop or Paintshop usually call the alpha channel as mask layer.

 

[Dejital]

lain:

... ehh, I think erasing 1% of a pixel is a lot simpler than adding an alpha layer each time.

Rice, I found a little bug with some dumped ciByRGBA textures in SSB.
Not an important one, anyways I attach some samples if you want to take a look.

 

[Amon_Knives]

Ok, for some reason I can't get anything into 32-bit. I'm using photoshop and I add an alpha channel and it still keeps it in 24-bit format. Can anyone help me?

 

[C0bra]

i think the dl stopped working... might be me tho.

Example:

Dejital, what process did you go through and what software did you use to get that to work?

Rice, will I need to make 4 identical images like Dejatil to get an individual frame to work like what Dejital had to do?

 

[_pm_]

Good job Rice with the beta6, it looks like you've fixed almost all the texture replications bugs in SSB! :bouncy:

The only thing that seems to still have problems is Link's shield (little black area).

Thanks, and keep up the good work!

It's very easy, but Mario Kart is the only one I've had to do that with. I'm not sure if Beta 5 has fixed the problem, but Mario Kart shot a lot of textures at me, and I tried using just one (which caused blinking) and ended up saving the same image four times to get to to not blink.

Here's my process for CI textures (which the karts are):

• Dump textures
• Check dumped folder
• Select all the kart textures that end in _ciByRGBA
• Open these textures in a drawing program and modify as I wish (4x)
• Save it as 32-bit (my trick is to erase a few pixels' solidness by using an eraser at 1% intensity; and then overwriting the appropriate kart images)

Not very hard at all.
Here are the names and dimensions of the idle Yoshi kart if you want to test it:

1x: 64 X 32
4x: 256 x 128

Mario Kart 64#94AD971F#2#1#6AEB49EC_ciByRGBA.png
Mario Kart 64#94AD971F#2#1#9EB78E16_ciByRGBA.png
Mario Kart 64#94AD971F#2#1#8683A7A7_ciByRGBA.png
Mario Kart 64#94AD971F#2#1#A3CB88E0_ciByRGBA.png

These are for beta 3+, and I haven't tested beta 5 yet (it might dump less?), which I'll go test right now.

Edit: Yeah, it's the same with Beta 5.... wait, Beta 7? What?!

Thanks for the bug report, I will have it fixed soon.

Hi

Thank Rice.

Texture clamp problem is fixed by beta 7.

Beta 7 fixes the clamped texture problem.

Bestbiz, I have checked the problem in the game. The same texture is used in the ways as non-mirrored and mirrored. The plugin isn't able to handle such situation for this moment. Please wait me to find some solutions. We will probably have beta 8 (and you might have to change your new texture back to the half size again).
