About
Hi, I'm Jimmy! I am a huge Nintendo Fan, I like to mod Wii/Wii U/Switch Games! I also created the Storm Island Modpack for Wii Sports Resort. Also if you're wondering about my channel name, Its to get my channel shown on search results since my website doesn't show up in the Google search results.
Accomplishments
I just wanted to list these, I don't know why but I just do.
- I am currently the only person to have made a Modpack for Wii Sports Resort, Wii Music, Wii Fit Plus, and Wii Chess
- I appear to be the only person who has a compiled version of rseq2midi uploaded online
- I was the first person to upload the Wii Sports Resort Swordplay Showdown Theme
- I was the first person to upload the Wii Sports Resort Cycling Theme
File Format Research
This is Reference Documentation for file formats I've studied in other games since I have no idea how to make my own wiki.
PMP File Format
The PMP File Format seems to be a universal format used in Wii Series Games, I've seen it in Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, Wii Music, Wii Play, Wii Fit, Wii Fit Plus. They seem to have similarities to KMP Files used in Mario Kart Wii. They all have different uses depending on the game that they are used by.
PMP Files used in Wii Sports Resort
Golf
This is for PMP files Used in Wii Sports Resort Golf. These Files control things like: Player Position, Tree Placement, Tree Type, Sky Placement, Hole/Goal Placement, Object Size, and Flag Placement.
These PMP Files call for objects located in the common.carc file for golf, sort of the way KMP does in Mario Kart Wii.
| Offset | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x00 | File Header | The header in every PMP File is "PMPF" Which might stand for "Plot Parameter File Format". |
| 0x11 | ??? | Every PMP File used in golf has a value in this offset that takes up a byte, Might be a checksum? |
| 0x43 | ??? | This byte in this offset is "80" in every PMP File. |
Course Specific Values
These values apply to the first object in the PMP File
| Offset | Use | Description/Other Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 0x83 | Object Type | This starts at 0x83, then at 0x133, then it shows up again at 0x1E3, then again at 0x293, etc.
Look down below for Object Values. |
| 0x88 | Unknown. | |
| 0x90 | X Coordinate | Coordinates are stored as floats, This offset seems to change every 2 objects. |
| 0x94 | Y Coordinate | Coordinates are stored as floats, This offset seems to change every 2 objects. |
| 0x98 | Z Coordinate? | Not Really sure since this seemed to move in random directions even when the coordinates
were changed by values as little as 0.001 |
| 0x9C | Unknown. | |
| 0xA0 | Unknown. | |
| 0xA8 | Unknown. | |
| 0xB0 | Object Size (Height) | Value stored as float (Always set to "3F80" in hex, equal to "1" as a float) 1 is the default
object size. |
| 0xB4 | Unknown. | |
| 0xB8 | Unknown. | |
| 0xC0 | Unknown. | |
| 0xC4 | Section End | These 4 bytes are always "FFFF". Most likely separating each object in the file. |
PMP Object Values
The PMP Files in golf call for objects located in common.carc of Wii Sports Resort.
There are 4 bytes at the start of every object which are laid out like this 00 02 00 02 The first value of "02" is unknown, but the 2nd value of "02" is the object ID. here are the values for each object.
| Value (In Hex) | Object | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 00 | Start Position | Very Confusing Parameters and a location near the end of the file. |
| 01 | Flag + Cup | There seems to be multiple coordinates for this object based on wind direction,
The game will crash if this object is placed more then once. |
| 02 | Green Tree with scattered leaves | glf_tree1.brres in common.carc |
| 03 | Pine Tree | glf_tree2.brres in common.carc |
| 04 | Unknown. | |
| 05 | Unknown. | |
| 06 | Palm Tree | glf_tree3.brres in common.carc (Only seems to be used in Resort courses) |
| 07 | Unknown. | |
| 08 | Unknown. | |
| 09 | Unknown. | |
| 10 | Unknown. | |
| 11 | Unknown. | |
| 12 | Unknown. | |
| 13 | Unknown. | |
| 14 | Unknown. | |
| 15 | Unknown. | |
| 16 | The Nineteenth Hole Hotel | |
| 17 | Crab Rock | |
| 18 | Unknown. | Value used a lot in the files but no object seems to show up when placed. |
| 19 | Seems to be Crab Rock again | |
| 20 | Unknown. | |
| 21 | Unknown. |
EXBIN File Format
In some types of these files they seem to Reference "Excel" a lot, Which might mean that they are some form of Binary Spreadsheets exported from Excel or an Excel Like Program.
