Tutorial!!!!

Spoiler: click to toggle:

1. Rip iso to pc
2. Extract iso with expert tools
3. Copy CH.PAC or CH2.PAC whatever file you want to work with in the svr editor files foler
4. Run cmd to svr editor and export the pac file you want
5. Open pac file with x-pakker and texture files will show up as soon as you open the pac file
6. Click on export all then save to a folder of your choice.
7. Open optix image studio and open a tm2 file you want to edit
8. Save as png or jpeg for editing
9. Open up editing program of your choice i perfer paint.net and edit your image and save
10. Open edited image in optix and click color reduction in the image drop down menu and reduce it to 16 or 256 colors depending on what original image had.
11. Click options and then click alpha channel settings. Half range setting should be checked.
12. Click layers then click add new aplha layer.
13. Save image as tm2. 8 bit for 256 colors. 4 bit for 16 colors.
14. Open x-pakker again and open your wrestler pac file and import edited texture tm2 files.
15. Open hex editor and open up your wrestler pac file and the big pac file your wrestler pac file came from.
16. Copy first couple lines of your wrestler pac file then goto the big pac file and use the search function to search for those lines.(if using hxd make sure when you search use the hex vaules setting)
17. Once you found those bytes in the big pac file go back to your wrestler pac file and copy all of the file untill you see where the data stops.
18. Go back to the big pac file and and put he cursor where those bytes begin then click edit then click paste write.

Bam edited wrestler pac is now in the big pac file.

Then just copy the new big pac file and paste it into the pac folder of your extracted iso then rebuild with expert.

[littlebase]

Nice job!! Thanks for the tutorial!

Tutorial is good and easy to understand, great job! I'm thinking of trying out a PS2 emu on my PC and if it works, and it works well, I might get HCTP and a PC controller, we'll see. Nice mod too

Awesome

Is there ripped textures I can work with or should I rip them myself? Thinking of making Tensai, and trying some more ambitious things


Sorry, let me rephrase that;

Can someone rip the textures from this game so that I can edit them please?

[littlebase]

Thanks for the feedback guys I appreciate it. As for the textures their very easy to rip. once you open a wrestler pac file in x-packer a texture list appears and then you can export them all. Here's another texture.

Are you removing/adding items or did SCSA already have attires similar to that? Reason I ask is because I want to make a modern Brock Lesnar too

Also, would it be possible to add wrestlers at this point or let's say, heavily modify Eric Bitchoff until he becomes Sheamus?
