You have awesome ideas, I took some inspiration from you, hope you don't mind.

Did you finally get the message, though?

If I want to have a texture that has part of it transparent, how could I do it? In other words, if I make a 2 sided plane that has the texture of a cage, or bars with holes, all the holes show up with a black texture in the game and in whitehole. But the texture itself has transparent holes when viewed in GIMP.

So I've got multiple questions about SMG.

Firstly, I seemingly can't edit Object files without crashing the game (yet it will still run through Dolphin). I CAN edit Layouts, so why not Objects?

Secondly, I noticed that some Objects (namely Toads, Lumas, and the P2 Luma), have purely grey, colorless textures which I can only assume are colored with color values or something. They show up correctly in BMDView2 though, which must mean some color values are inside each .bdl.

Thirdly, how do I edit the text of SMG1?

And finally, as someone with a limited amount of brlyt experience, how the heck do you change where Layouts appear on the screen. I understand the basics life their RGBA values and some GX types but I can't even work out how to change their position on the screen, unless it's hardcoded somehow.

1. It was Mario's .bdl that I tried to replace... Now that I think about it, I probably should have started with something more simple to test. It's weird that it runs in Dolphin, though.

2. Has there been discovered anyway to edit them? Would it be possible through hex editing?

3. That's kinda sad... Thank you though.

And a new but fairly simple question: how would you go about replacing the textures of a .bdl file once you've edited them?



Edit: Also, how would you go about finding memory values for things like Mario's starting lives or maximum lives and setting them with Gecko codes? Is it even possible?
