smackdown SmackDown Live Apron LED Test

[Ashba]

So, as we all know, the new Raw and SmackDown apron LEDs are not videos like before, they used to glow and stuff, not anymore.

Now it's just a plain image being shown the whole time, pretty easy to make, EXCEPT Raw which has a background design that i couldn't copy since the new indie style camera angles did not let me see it well. and even if i did, it looked like a bunch of confusing stuff mixed together, impossible to copy with my AWFUL photoshop skills,  if anyone is willing to help, that'd be great.

In the game the Led aprons don't work the way we think for the main shows, it's not a video with LED screen style, that effect is added in-game, so all we need to do is to create the image that's gonna be our new ring apron, no need to add fancy stuff or LED effects on photoshop. 

Use a video editor to create a 512x128 video file from your image, it can be a 4 secs video, and then bink it (to a .bk2 file)  using Rad Tools, don't forget to set 512 x 128 as the width and height on Rad tools options. 

And there you have it, Your own in-Ring LED apron, doesn't matter if it's a video or a plain image, it's gonna feel badass because you did it by yourself , You can replace SmackDown, Raw, NXT, Main Event, Wrestlemania, Superstars and Elimination Chamber. Our only interest for now is SmackDown (and Raw in a near future) 

(OPTION 2: IF YOU DON'T WANT TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL FILES, YOU CAN ADD LED EFFECTS AND USE THE IMAGE AS A CUSTOM LOGO IN CREATE AN ARENA) 

So i tried this on my own:

SmackDown apron real image:

Version 2 (closer to what it looks in real life but kinda small in-game):  

Version 2 Bk2 file Download:  http://www.mediafire.com/download/3upgrmql172iuhd/SD+2016+V2.bik

 

 

Now what?

Go to your game folder, pac/mov/ar_apron and take the first file (000000.pac) that one is smackdown, 

you can use quickbms to extract the pac files in case you wanna know what LED apron the other files contain, Raw is there like 3 times, i haven't found out why, testers are welcome! 

Note: your file can't be bigger than the original

There are a couple of Pac replacement tutorials around, i don't plan on doing another one with my limited english skills, anyway... I'll leave you the modified 000000.pac file for you to download in case you dont wanna look around and learn for yourself.

(Remember to always make a backup of the file you're gonna replace)

And here's how it looks like

NOTE: Seems like the game makes the video a little bit bigger so the WWE logo looks wider in-game than in the preview.
