Modding SSF4AE for PC (NO DLC UNLOCKS!)

The music is stored in csb files, which can be edited with tools/tutorials available on the modding wiki. To find them all, you can just go into your base SSF4AE folder and search for ‘csb.’ You’ll end up with a lot of little sound effects and whatnot, but you should be able to tell music from sound effects by the size, if nothing else. The names should also be descriptive, so you can usually figure out which ones are music.

is there anyway to listen to the files stored in the csb files i have only gotten as far as extracting the axx files from the csb to replace them :stuck_out_tongue: but that was when i already knew what i was looking for

I don’t know of any way to listen to the csb files directly, no. Someone else might be able to help, though. I know Goshanes spearheaded a lot of the music stuff.

the names are descriptive, I can tell you what most of them are
BGM_AFR.csb -the runway stage
BGM_AFX.csb -the eclipse stage
BGM_BLD.csb -Skyscraper stage I think
BGM_BRA.csb -the two amazon stages, daylight and night
BGM_BRX.csb
BGM_CHN.csb -crowded downtown
BGM_CNX.csb -overpass I think
BGM_EUR.csb -cruse ship
BGM_IND.csb -exciting street scene
BGM_JPN.csb -the two Japanese temple stages
BGM_JPX.csb
BGM_KOR.csb -Festival at the old temple
BGM_LAB.csb -Old boss stange
BGM_LBX.csb -New boss stage
BGM_RUS.csb -Train stage
BGM_SCO.csb -Distillery stage
BGM_TRN.csb -Training mode stage
BGM_USA.csb -drive-in stage
BGM_VCN.csb -not sure about these last three, I think it’s the two boat stages and the volcano stage
BGM_VIE.csb
BGM_VNX.csb

not sure what these are
BGM_GAS.csb
BGM_RVR.csb
BGM_SCH.csb
BGM_SCX.csb
BGM_TRL.csb
BGM_TNM.csb

the rest of them are charactor themes
each character has two, don’t know why 2channel-4channel?
BGM_BOS_2CH.csb
BGM_BOS_4CH.csb
and the boss characters have an additional one
BGM_BOS_EXT.csb

unrelated, but good job with those tool-assisted glitch/combo vids, error1

thanks, as far as I’m concerned, giving me complements is always on-topic


can you really use the double ultra mod online?

There’s a chinese tool that hacks the executable that can enable both ultras at once. It might not cause the same desyncs that a file mismatch causes. I don’t know for sure, though, since i’ve never actually used it.

Weird

so in ono! when I add a script to blankas bac file, I get this error when I try to re open it.
“Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index”

It works in the game fine, but crashes ono! every time

Is this tool publicly released? or privately?

Some fields become blank when copying animations. If the animation has FLOW, CANCELS or HITBOX sections, try to reassign a value from the drop-down lists. You might need to scroll right for the “HitboxData” part in HITBOX.

ok so I’ve been able to change most of the stage music and all.but I didn’t get to change the VS screen and victory screen music,and it’s kinda important to me.I think I spotted the file wich should be located in ressource/ui/sound/bgm/ BGM_VERSUS.csb but rebuilding the file with CSB_packer as 1-nothing (short mute sound),2-new vs bgm,3-nothing,4-bgm,5-nothing,6-bgm as you’ll normally do with the stages don’t work.anybody has some info about this?
also,to help,the usual unlocker don’t work at all with the retail version after you’ve updated the game with both legit patches.but for anybody who still wish to unlock alternate colors and taunts I’ve got the codes working with cheat_engine.

@KaiserPhoenix
We shouldn’t talk about the chinese tool. It’s out and about if you look around, though.

yeah, that was the problem, it was missing something in the hitbox table. Problem is that I can’t open the file to change it, beacuse it crashes ono!. guess I’ll try and hex it
edit: awesome, managed to hex it, that actually was easier then I thought it would be

Cool, I’ll just do some looking around.

Does anyone know where the file that has the ultra combo gauge is located? I want to replace it with the red one from vanilla.

thanks

To listen to csb directly and to unpack/repack them, use

Goshanes’ SFIVAM

resource/battle/hud/CMN/cockpit.tex.emz

thanks, i managed to get rid of the ultra numbers, but couldnt find away to get the original red colour. but it should be good enough like that. thanks for the response

Edit: also, does anyone know how to remove the text for the ultra on the vs screen?

Thanks

I did a Blanka rebalance

to make sure that if anyone does a ae rainbow edition, that at least the blanka will be good

those are some crazy changes, error1! Great work.
