Editing the Misc.pac to add attires



Right, so alot of people are doing mods nowadays so I thought I'd make a tutorial on how to edit the misc.pac to add attires to wrestlers. So here goes!:
First off, you will need:
- HxD(Hex editor): Installable version, Portable version
- Your misc.pac
- The ability to read
- The ability to use google
- Decimal to Hexadecimal converter
- Patience

Lets start, we will be adding an additional attire to Chris Jericho(Current).
1. First download and install HxD
2. Now grab your misc.pac from: -   http:// Usb0(OR Hdd1)\Games\WWE'13(or similar)\pac
3. Open HxD and drag the misc.pac into the grey area on the HxD window
4. You will see a bunch of numbers(Knowing the newbs, I know they will get confused, but DO NOT get confused).
5. Press CTRL+F.
6. Type "COS" in the search box, press the Return(or enter) key.
7. Here are the entries for the superstars with their attires
8. Since we are doing Chris Jericho who is ch104, we will convert 104 to hex using a Hexadecimal Converter
9. The Hexadecimal value for 104 is 68 so we search for a byte which contains the number 68.
It is here:
10. Remeber:
01= no. of attires
09= Attire code for Original Attire
FF FF FF FF= Unlocked by default

11. Here Jericho(Who is ch104 which is 68 in hex) has 1 attire, which is unlocked by default.
12. If we want to add to add another attire, we replace the "01" with "02" so that it looks like:
13. Then in the byte that immediately follows "FF FF FF FF" we add 0B(Attire code for Collectors) so that it looks like:
14. Finally, we move over 3(So in total, we skip 6 0's) bytes and then add "FF"(So a total of 8 F's) 4 bytes after that 1 byte after the other, like so:
15. After that just press CTRL+S and your misc.pac is saved!
Now to add attires to the actual pac files:

1. Download Tekken57's Dummy.pac
2. Inject any PACHs that you want(We edited the misc.pac so that chris jericho has 2 attires, so we can add chris' 00010402 and 00010404 PACHs into the dummy.pac, rename the the PACHs accordingly, and this will count as 1 character(because 00010404 is actually an entrance attire which does not matter in the misc.pac) and another PACH files of his(texture modded or whatever) into another slot and rename the slot to 00010412 and if you want to add an entrance attire to that, inject another PACH into the slot underneath it and rename the slot to 00010414, etc.)
3. Press Add additional attire data to arc file button
4. Choose Plist360.arc
5. Press OK
6. Press the add additional attire data to arc file button again
7. Choose the Plist360_4x3.arc
8. Press OK
Done.
Notes:
Attire codes(That I know of):
09= Original attire
0B= Collectors
0A= Suit

FF FF FF FF= Unlocked by default

You can add upto 4 in-ring attires and have 4 entrance attire for each of the in-ing attire they are named as follows:
-000xxx02, 000xxx04
-000xxx12, 000xxx14
-000xxx22, 000xxx24
-000xxx32, 000xxx34

When you convert a ch number into hex and the result is a 3 digit number, use this trick:
309(ch number for Hunico) in hex is 135, so in order to write this correctly in the misc.pac we have to add "0" in front of the number so it looks like, "0135", and then take the "01" and put it at the back of the number so that it looks like, "3501". Examples:

CH No.--------------------Hex-----------------------How it is written
325|----------------------|145|----------------------------|4501
322|----------------------|142|----------------------------|4201
338|----------------------|152|----------------------------|5201
314|----------------------|13a|----------------------------|3a01


Procedure= 325--145-- 0145-- 4501


If you have any questions drop a reply and I'll try to help you out, but remember, google is a better friend that I am

Can't wait to try this out. Thanks so much for typing this up, dude. Seems the part where you need to have the attire code values (09, 0A, or 0B) is where I was going wrong, as I was using Cena's as a template, for lack of a better term, and his has the 10, 11, and 12 values for additional attires, which I'm guessing doesn't work for others. Thanks again, man!

Edit:

Maybe I'm missing something, but how exactly do we access the new attires once we're in the game? I originally tried it with D-X Triple H and thought I did something wrong, but then I tried it with Jericho and followed the tutorial to an absolute tee (edited the misc, used the dummy.pac to add everything in and overwrite the original .pac, and updated the attire info in the .arcs), and it just doesn't seem to do anything. I'll go into the game--which will load perfectly, so its accepting the changes--and go to select the Superstar and all that's there to choose from is the Original Attire and any Superstar Thread variations.

yeah the one thing smart left out is.. well from my experience is, you have to have a new save. you can't apply this to a current save, it has to be new. When doing the kofi one i found that it didn't show with a save but when i started over it showed..

Really? Because I had to do no such thing on the 360 side of things

Is that so? Well, fuck. Having gone through and editing/fixing everyone's (yes, everyone's) movesets, I really, really hope that's not the only way. Thanks for the heads up, though, dude.

You must have DLC pack 2, I had the same problem mate. If you delete the DLC pack it will show up. But then you have to choose between DLC and attire mods.

Yeah, I do have the second pack. Seeing as some of the main attires I wanted to add are for guys who are in the second pack of DLC, I guess it looks like I'm out of luck. That's strange how the DLC would stop something like that from working, though. Thanks for the clarification.

did you try with a new save? just to test? like i said that how it was for me.. try that first before giving up.

Just went in to try that out. Strange how it got things to work for you, as it was no different for me.
