[Closed] [PS2/PSP/XBOX360] SMACKDOWN vs RAW 2010 ROSTER EDITOR

[TheDoctor]

Just throwing something out there to see if it might be this. I had it happen when i first started, it was just something i overlooked.

The pac file is named example BretHart1.pac & not something like

Bret Hart1.pac?

[nikethebike]

Yes, check so that you don't have any spaces in your paths, either to the editor or the file you are importing.

I also guess you are importing the character from within the editor? In that case what browser do you use?

Have you tried doing it from command line aswell?

[nikethebike]

I wrote a tutorial about the editor. I bet some people will be interested about this.

How to use the roster editor to edit movesets of characters in savegames

[WilliamCampbell]

No spaces in the filename. As I mentioned, the same .pac files worked fine over existing wrestlers and other slots. And that's where it gets weird: never it happened over certain slots and the game's roster. But you can be sure that if I try slot 108 now, it will happen... Though I know it is not the problem (after all a lot of you are using the very same slots).

I'm using Opera. Didn't try using command line yet, only for exporting.
I'm gonna try with a different browser and/or using CMD and let you know the results.

Edit: I tried via CMD and the result was similar: only the entrance model appears in "occupied slots" even though the in-game one was said to have been imported just fine. No errors or anything unusual in the cmd. Tried with the old slot 108.
Edit 2: Via editor with Internet Explorer showed the same results. I'm confused.

Edit 3: Reading the WWF Legends mod topic, I found an user called zhigge mentioning the following:

{   } - yeah i know. that i've been doing that for a while.. but for some reason when i updated to the newer version of the roster editor i've been have major problems. I've had slots that normally work stop like the 108 109 119 slots as well as others that didn't work start working.. so i think i may just have a corrupted pc.

Similar problem? Notice the slot 108 in the list (not sure if 109 and 199 were part of the others which gave me the same problem).

[nikethebike]

Hmm yeah, there must be a bug in the newer version. My test files were created on an older version of the tool. I've heard this now several times.

Would be good if I got some time over to look at this I guess...

[nikethebike]

I will have to be able to recreate the problem, so that I can test. If it happens to work for me I can't fix it.

If you could help me by doing the following I'd appreciate it a lot.

Can you perhaps upload your changed arc file before (working) and after the edit (imported to problematic slot) so that I can compare the files?

[WilliamCampbell]

Sure enough, Nike! I'll recreate the problem here and then upload the files.

Edit: This is a backup of the arc file I made yesterday, so it's working - http://www.mediafire.com/?54mdyoiugifwn9p
Now I tried slot 108 just for the sake of your request and yup, it happened. So here's the problematic arc - http://www.mediafire.com/?qllb8tmepye69nt

Notice that a few of the slots which gave me problems are edited. If I'm not mistaken, they are 197, 198 and 235.

All you noobs, really, what's the problem in spending some time to read and watch videos to learn how to friggin' use the editor? Start by learning how to read so you'll notice that it says "2010 editor". The time you're taking to annoy people around here is the same time you could be spending learning how to use it. I did it, why can't you? If I was able to learn surely you can learn it too? There's no mystery (besides the weird issue I reported above). Please, less posting and more reading. Arjun's video is also a fantastic way to learn how to use the editor.

Again. Another example why the OSR honour roll should be re-instated. Post of the month perhaps?

This is a prime example of a new member/SvR modder actually taking the time to learn and study the tutorials and use common sense, instead of posting stupid requests and asking passwords. William bro, I salute you.

Shame we lost contact so long ago, I remember you for Legends Kingdom. I was not a avid poster there, but remember chatting to you on a few occasions and you were so cool and level headed.

Hope you resolve the issue's with the editor and hope to see some SvR mods from you soon buddy.

[WilliamCampbell]

Thank you! I can't express enough how thankful I feel because you guys have been so cool since I've joined the place. As I mentioned previously, it's always great to see a community that close. I made some good friends from all over the world in my time being a member of few forums, so I try to do what's best for the places and my friends. You don't ask for respect and you don't make people respect you. If you want respect, you shall give respect. If you want someone to be friendly to you, the best way is to actually be friendly to the person and so on.

And yah, I think it's common sense, really. I'm not sure how people feel comfortable just dropping by and throwing "ZOMG CAN I HAS MODS THX" kind of questions without dedicating some time to learn and/or read the information avaible. Heck, I didn't even know there were all those mods for the PS2 game until a few days ago... When I heard about it my first reaction was to learn how to do it and sure enough it was no mystery! It just takes a bit of reading and trying yourself.

I usually don't have anything against people who are new to something because I also was a "noob" one day, when I found out what was the internet. But you also need some common sense and respect before you ask for help. There are literally lots of tutorials/guides and videos around the web about using nikethebike's editor and how to mod the game. The editor itself comes with a readme file explaining the basics... It's not hard, not even a bit. The chances of being successful in your first try are HIGH - I know I would have done it if it wasn't for that bug - because the editor is very straightforward, there's no mystery if you just read/watch and learn. I believe that the problem is that kids mostly don't care about reading because "IT SUCKS LOL" or something... But heck, not even this is an excuse since Arjun made some videos that are very helpful for those willing to learn and try. And when it comes to PSP, passwords, 2011 support, etc, well, it's all common sense. Most of these questions were already answered.

I thank you AKI Man for your comments! And I'm sorry if I offended anyone of good will with my opinion and previous posts but please: take your time to read/watch tutorials! You'll find out that it's pretty easy. And take your time to read the information given by the editor's creator to know about it, its future, etc. Again: there's no mystery!

Honestly I think one of the problems for some of the banned n00b people is that they aren't very good at English. They have a hard time understanding the txt file and they have a hard time reading the rules. When they say something it's often very straight forward with a few words they know which sometimes make it sound more rude than it was meant. This is one thing I believe. I also think they sometimes read the page through google translate.

However there are also a bunch of lazy asses that don't even bother trying.
