Miztah Raza Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 (edited) 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). First download and install HxD Now grab your misc.pac from: Usb0(OR Hdd1)\Games\WWE'13(or similar)\pac Open HxD and drag the misc.pac into the grey area on the HxD window You will see a bunch of numbers(Knowing the newbs, I know they will get confused, but DO NOT get confused). Press CTRL+F. Type "COS" in the search box, press the Return(or enter) key. Here are the entries for the superstars with their attires Since we are doing Chris Jericho who is ch104, we will convert 104 to hex using a Hexadecimal Converter The Hexadecimal value for 104 is 68 so we search for a byte which contains the number 68. It is here: Remeber: 01= no. of attires 09= Attire code for Original Attire FF FF FF FF= Unlocked by default Here Jericho(Who is ch104 which is 68 in hex) has 1 attire, which is unlocked by default. If we want to add to add another attire, we replace the "01" with "02" so that it looks like: Then in the byte that immediately follows "FF FF FF FF" we add 0B(Attire code for Collectors) so that it looks like: 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: After that just press CTRL+S and your misc.pac is saved! Now to add attires to the actual pac files: Download Tekken57's Dummy.pac 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 1character(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.) Press Add additional attire data to arc file button Choose Plist360.arc Press OK Press the add additional attire data to arc file button again Choose the Plist360_4x3.arc 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, 000xxx34When 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 written325|----------------------|145|----------------------------|4501322|----------------------|142|----------------------------|4201338|----------------------|152|----------------------------|5201314|----------------------|13a|----------------------------|3a01Procedure= 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 Cheers! EDIT: I've made a program that does all of the above for you. It asks you for information about attires, IDs, etc. and produces the hex bytes for you! You simply have to copy them and paste them at the correct offset. I'd highly suggest reading the tutorial once though so you know what you're doing Here's the program: http://www.mediafire.com/download/ctlsoxf8qe7h4xl/MiscPacGuide.rar If you're completely lost in the program, read the above tutorial and then hover the textbox titles, tool tips will appear briefly guiding you Cheers!!

arsalanpro Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 you know.. it would be awesome for everyone if you could do a tutorial video.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris2000 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 you know.. it would be awesome for everyone if you could do a tutorial video.. Agreed, I have one question, this adds more attires but I'm assuming that means you cant make more in superstar threads then yep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you can, you just can't edit the attires you add manually. You can still use Superstar Threads(without replacing anything) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brienj Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Nice tutorial, although you should mention that there are actually 4 COS files (at least there were in WWE12 and don't think they changed this year), and that two of the four need changed, and one of the two that needs changed is for 4:3 displays and the other one is for 16:9 displays. If you don't change the one for the display setting you use, you won't see the changes. Regardless if there are 4 total like last year, you still need to be careful which one you change, and you should change the two different ones that are used by the different displays, in case you share anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I really can't find another entry for COS. I mean I search for it in HxD and it finds it, then I click "Search again" and it says, it can't find COS. So I'm kind of confused. I only do what it says in my tut and it seems to work fine, then again, I'm not a 16:9 display so I can't really confirm if it shows up on that. Would you mind telling where exactly I might find that second entry where the values need to be edited, but either replying or PM'ing me?

And I just checked, and you are right. They must have totally changed it. Last year, there were four of them, but only two needed changed. They can't make up their mind on anything. :dunno Edited December 16, 2012 by brienj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miztah Raza Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 LOL They really can't. But meh, I only edit the one I find and it works how it should. I might have to hook up my 360 to my HDTV sometime to test it out, but until then it's working fine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zhigge Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 so um you hooked your 360 up to your hdtv yet. lol. not sure why but it doesn't work for hd users... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too lazy, it may just be because you've got the DLC pack 2/3. There's nothing else that can stop it.... Also, I've figured out how to fix that little prob, I'm too lazy to write up a tut right now, but it will come, eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can change the misc.pac file in the game folder until your knuckles are raw, but the one in the latest DLC will always take precedence over it.

LOL Yep, but what you could do is, extract the misc_dlc03.pac, make the changes it needs(they have to treat it like the normal misc.pac) reinject it, click the rebuild button, click the security tab, sign it for dev LIVE and it works!

I need to write up an in-depth tutorial, but as I said, just too lazy, atm I'm also working on showing people how to get that file back on the HD, where it is much easier to mod. I have to just go ahead and do that mod, then share how with everyone. It's too much of a pain to keep modding that file in the actual DLC. BTW, I've explained a few times to everyone how you do it. Not sure if anyone will be able to finally do it on their own though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zhigge Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) not to everyone.. BJ but i get ya. makes sense. so basically i can either wait or hope one of you as you say lazy bastards decide to do a tut. lol. no offense its just funny because of the irony of the statement. whats this rebuild button you speak of and this security tab? is there a recompiler somewhere i'm not aware of Edited January 15, 2013 by zhigge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, in addition to the other post you made about this SAME topic, I should mention that unless he has updated his mods to not have to update the arc files yet, you will have to update the arc files in the DLC as well.
