Replacing .BMD0 textures in B2W2 (Tutorial)


Recommended Posts

This tutorial will show how to replace textures in a .BMD0 file (Vs. Scenes, Fly sprites, etc.)

First off, download the following programs:

NitroExplorer2

Tinke (latest version)

Mario Kart DS Editor

Some kind of image editing software

For this tutorial, I will be replacing Vs. Scenes.

Step 1.

Open NitroExplorer2 and navigate to a/1/6/6, extract the NARC.

Step 2.

Open the NARC with Tinke.

Step 3.

Find the file that you want to edit, the Vs. Scenes are usually start around the 80th file.

Step 4.

View the file and extract it (be sure when extracting the file you put .nsbmd at the end of what ever you named it).

Step 5.

Open Mario Kart DS Editor.

Step 6.

Goto Tools>Nitro Explorer>NSBMD ==> NSBMD + NSBTX

Step 7.

Select the file you extracted, and save the new .nsbmd, and the .nsbtx

Step 8.

You should now have a .nsbtx file, Open it in Mario Kart DS Editor.

Step 9.

Textures should appear, the top part contains the images, and the bottom part contains the palettes for the images.

Step 10.

Select the palette, then the image, and extract it as .png

Step 11.

Edit it however you like, color limit doesn't matter.

Step 12.

Save the image, then go back to Mario Kart DS Editor and replace the image.

Step 13.

Save the .nsbtx, and goto Tools>Nitro Explorer> NSBMD + NSBTX ==> NSBMD.

Step 14.

Rename the new NSBMD file to (name).BMD0

Step 15.

Replace a Vs. Scene with the one you just edited.

Step 16.

Pack the NARC and re-insert it.

Your .BMD0 should be working properly.

If you have any questions, or comments, let me know ^_^.

Cool, neat. Figured out how to do that because of you. With the slight issue of the color palette messing up whenever I import a new image. Specifically trying to edit the Fly animation and each time I import a different sprite it updates and shuffles around the palette, meaning that the other sprites get messy.
