[Closed] HCTP editor

[Prinsto]

BUt we can just make CAWS and edit their textures, correct?

I already made a tutorial for that

 

[nikethebike]

A problem is HCTP had the most ugly looking CAWs of the series. Their shoulders... Oh their shoulders...

 

[TheDoctor]

What models would actually be able to be imported?

 

[Prinsto]

well, at the moment we still don't know how to do it, because we only have a finished ch2.pac with the working files from some guy who apparently know how to do that. here are his flickr images, showing the results: https://flic.kr/p/czY3eb
so i think just jeff hardy and hogan are working (and as i recall, nikethebike said that hogan still isn't 100% compatible)

 

[Warrior]

This would be great! Any way to implement importing moves from Rumble Roses that Prinsto did?
As in, no need for all the hex?

 

[nikethebike]

Hogan works but his tights are actually his body texture, but seems to have the palette of the original texture. I have a feeling the textures are re-indexed some way.

 

[Prinsto]

yeah, i wrote to you about that, while sending you the ch2.pac. all we need to adjust is the header of each txc file. first line from bit 7-D. this is what the creator of the working hardy has changed and where he "stole" values from original hctp textures.

If a editor was made for HCTP I would quit my job, ditch the missus and spend my life in a confined room modding the game. Is that enough reason?

Seriously, I still play that game on my chipped PS2 and still love it!1

 

[nikethebike]

Get ready to leave your missus, since I just made my first HCTP editing tool. A simple command line text edit generator.

Generating codes to change the name of someone is now as simple as:

Great. Now I gotta buy an old PS2 and hack it.

 

[nikethebike]

Or you buy a decent computer so you can run PCSX2. This editor will generate PCSX2 cheat codes.

 

[Deleted User]

Oh, I have a decent computer, however, I like the idea of playing this on my PS2.

Besides, I want to play modded Fire Pro, as well.....

 

[nikethebike]

I hook my PC up via HDMI. Better graphics, PS2 controller converter... Can't go wrong.

By the way, do we have a character ID index for HCTP? Most lists seem to be sorted by name...

Changed api to:
jruby edit_name.rb 0 "Hulk Hogan" Hogan Hollywood

That will rename character 0 - The Rock - to "Hollywood Hulk Hogan"

 

[Deleted User]

I'll post pics of my gaming room sometime and you'll understand my insistence.

I'm not sure about the IDs, taking a look at the HCTP section, if this tool gets off the ground, it is going to need a lot of re-doing.

 

[Swifty]

Man if these went out and someone managed to make a HCTP Editor,modding it will get mainstream in NO TIME!

seriously though i'm really intrested in modding the game if this happens,especially HCTP,one of the greatests wrestling games ever!

Was fire pro wrestling ever modded ?[/quote]They had a bunch of edited save games for it with CAWS,belts and arenas that looked super realistic.

too bad i didn't like the gameplay,everything else is awesome though.

 

[nikethebike]

The game play was what was good about Fire Pro...




















...in 1996.

Seriously though, its programmable logic was awesome compared to what we have today. I do appreciate the retro game though, but you can tell the engine really is from the nineties, even though it still lasts in some sense.

 

[Deleted User]

I love it, and the mods are freaking intense.

My copy is crewed up, though. Won't play. That's what ya get at the pawn shop.

 

[Prinsto]

@nikethebike please take a look at my tutorial index. there will you find a char id list.
