DRAVEN Posted December 23, 2012 Posted December 23, 2012 you have to edit the misc.pac in the DLC file Quote
Miztah Raza Posted December 23, 2012 Posted December 23, 2012 you have to edit the misc.pac in the DLC file Yep, did that, I extracted it from the DLC archive, edited it, re-injected it and rebuilt the DLC file using LeFluffie. Any ideas on what I might be doin' wrong? Quote

DRAVEN Posted December 23, 2012 Posted December 23, 2012 not really I gave up on multi attires because of this.. lol check you are saving it right in lefluffie.. I think you have to fix it when you re inject the file.. Quote
brienj Posted December 23, 2012 Posted December 23, 2012 Don't add extra attires to the DLC. Add them to your HD as part of the game, and update your arc files, and update the file in the DLC that is like the arc files, and lastly, make sure to update the misc.pac file on your HD, as well as the one in the DLC. Update the misc.pac file on the HD, as if you don't have the DLC installed though. Quote

I did update the misc.pac on my HD. The real prob is that I already have added extra attires to the in-game superstars, but when I add DLC pack 2 to the game, it doesn't show any alt attires I've made. Quote

I could be mistaking, but I believe that updated .arc files and possibly misc.pac files are actually included inside the Title Update. When you install the Title Update onto your xbox with Freestyle or inside the cache folder, then you have to hex edit the Title Update to update it with your pre-Title Update attires. Hopefully that makes sense. Also you could do the following which is from a post by BrienJ on Xentax (and if you can do it right it will be much easier to edit): If you don't have a retail system, then don't put it in the cache, actually patch your xex file and install the other files that came with the patch file. Open the patch file with LeFluffie to extract it all. Use xextool to patch the original default.xex file with the default.xexp file. Then take the new default.xex file, along with all the other files that were extracted, and put them in your game folder, over-writing each and every file with the ones from the patch. Then you never have to worry about the patch not working, and the patch won't conflict if you modify any game files, which I bet is the problem you are having. You can NOT run any TU patch on a non-retail system, if you modify ANY of the game files, you must install the patch with the steps I said, and then modify the new files.

Because all the files in the DLC will always take precedence over any files on the HDD. Is there ever gonna be a fix for it ? Yeah, do what I said.

NEVER. It's one of my paint tool programs which contain all the patch files. Quote
Miztah Raza Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 I'm getting a bit confused, but I understood most of what you guys said. I've patched my xex with xex tool already. I know the DLC file takes precedence over any files on my HDD, so what I do is extract misc_dlc02, edit it, reinject into the DLC container, rebuild the DLC package and put that into the appropriate directory on my HDD, but my game just crashes after that! I've tried to create a new DLC package using LeFluffie and XLAST from the XDK, both did not work. Quote

I've tried to create a new DLC package using LeFluffie and XLAST from the XDK, both did not work. I assume the files are different in size than the original, that's where you are going wrong, if you aren't updating the "arc" file in the DLC. I can't recall the name of the file right now, but it works exactly like the arc file on the HD. I recommend also, that you do NOT make a different size than the original, and only replace files with the same exact size file. Do not rebuild the DLC, just open a hex editor, manually replace the file, do not even use LeFluffie, and then after you replace ONLY the bytes of the original file, run it through LeFluffie to resign it to DevKit Live. If a file must be bigger, put it on the HD and reference it that way. Hint: The reference to the files in the DLC package can be erased and redone in the files on the HD. In fact, I've never done it, but you could technically take all the files in the DLC, and just replace the files on the HD, removing all the references to the files, and just leave the info file in the DLC. Basically make the DLC like the first DLC, which only contains an info file, and all the content is on the disk. If you do it that way, it's much easier to mod it all, and not have to rebuild anything if the files end up bigger after you modify them. I went ahead and got the name of the files you need to change. The 'catalog.dlc' file is the list of all the DLC, whether it is on the HD or NOT. The 'catalog_hd.arc' and 'catalog_sd.arc' file are for files that ARE in the DLC package, if they are on the HD, they need not be included in these arc files, and the references to the files can be safely removed, and then you don't even have to remove the files from the DLC package, and the files named the same on the HD will be used instead.

Miztah Raza Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 How would I go about replacing it manually through a hex editor? You said it would be easier if I was to move all the files to my HD and leave the info file in the DLC, that way the DLC(Which contains only the info folder) would point to the DLC files on my HDD, correct? I think I'm going to have a go at that and see what happens. Can you further explain that last part, I did not understand it fullly: I went ahead and got the name of the files you need to change. The 'catalog.dlc' file is the list of all the DLC, whether it is onthe HD or NOT.

best in the world Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 Does anyone know if THQ is ever going to release some kind of glitch fix for WWE 13? Because the daily freezing and glitching really starts taking away from the fun factor when it is alarmingly frequent. Seriously, that makes a damn near perfect game almost not worth playing. Quote

Because the daily freezing and glitching really starts taking away from the fun factor when it is alarmingly frequent. Seriously, that makes a damn near perfect game almost not worth playing. The freezing goes away by installing the TU1 patch. As far as the glitches, I really haven't had any, so not sure what your problem is. Installing it to the HD is the smart thing to do though, because most of the glitches come from people playing it off the disc, and their 360 is getting old. Quote

Whether it's my actual copy on my normal, retail console, or my other copy on my jtag, I don't play either off the disc. I haven't encountered half the problems I've read about people having with this game because of it. 2 Quote

I haven't encountered half the problems I've read about people having with this game because of it. But, you mean you have to install a game to the HD, so it plays smoother, and doesn't have the problems with reading the disc? OMG, it's quite a concept, isn't it? People bitch about having to do it too, yet they still bitch if it has glitches. You just can't win with the whiners. In a way, I kind of feel sorry for THQ as far as that goes. 1 Quote
