So alot of people have been asking how I do animation swaps and stuff in my hacks, so I decided to post a tutorial. You will need: pk3DS (Latest Version) Ohana3DSRebirth (mariosonicds build) Step 1: Uncompress a/1/7/0 in pk3DS Step 2: Find the bin that contains the model that you want to use Step 3. Uncompress the bin in pk3DS, You should get a folder named ID_CM (ID being whatever number the file is) Step 4. Inside that folder you should see 9 bin files, copy the file named 0.bin Step 5. Find the bin the contains the animations you want to use, and uncompress it Step 6: You should get another folder named ID_CM that also has 9 bin files in it, overwrite the 0.bin in that folder with the one you copied Step 7: Pack the folder, you should now have a file named ID.CM Step 8. Rename the file to ID.BIN and replace the existing file Step 9. Repack the GARC Now you should have different animation ;). If you have any questions let me know!

There are copies of each one without the pkrus too. Also those events with pkrus iirc had an impossible combination of bits. They are legit, or generated from a leaked ROM. Either way, legit enough for me since I know the algorithm and trash bytes.

As @ajxpk stated, mistakingly not filtering out perfect hacks is always a potential reality of event preservation. If we are going to be this paranoid, a good amount of the older events we currently have up should come into question. It's hard to say we can 100% verify the lesser documented events. It doesn't make me discount the loads of undocumented PCNYs we have, for example. We have to consider that when events like this check out legal in comparison to our research data, especially events this rare, they shouldn't be withheld due to the off chance it's a perfect hack. I trust the judgment of Sabresite and ajxpk. Most hackers don't know how to do it right anyway with out some sort of unintentional sign, much less go through that effort for a public hoax. That's just my two cents anyway, not trying to chew you out or anything. We have a ton of rarities we may never find again, I just don't want to see them held back for lack of perfect documentation.
