Hello again,
after reading the article of Super Mario Galaxy 2 in The Cutting Room Floor, I came to the idea of making a hack of Super Mario Galaxy 2, which does the following: -it adds back Ice Mario and Flying Mario -it adds back all the unused SMG leftover enemies and objects ->the only exceptions being Cataquacks, since they crash SMG2 even if you add back their models -it adds some of the unused SMG galaxies and zones ->including the infamous Starman Fort and Home Planet -it adds some new galaxies as well ->mostly recreations of already exisiting courses from other Mario games ->also adds a few Banjo-Kazooie courses, which can be SMG2-fied with just little effort With all that said, I want to do this hack, but I have questions: What SMG/SMG2 editor would you suggest me (I have a noteboock with Windows 7)? How do I play Wii hacks without the use of Homebrew Channel? How do I port models from SMG into SMG2 (in order to make most of the unused SMG leftover work like described at TCRF)? How do I make new galaxies, if I already have the models needed for a galaxy's zone? How do I add new music tracks? I would be very glad, if someone could help me there. Thanks in advance! |

Umm, I thought Super Mario Galaxy 2.5 already existed? |

Oh right, almost forgot about that one.
However, as far as I remember, it doesn't do these things what I planned to do. So...how should the hack be called then? |

Posted by Trinitronity It has almost everything you mentioned, except Starman's Fort and HomePlanet. There are only 2 SMG2 editors, Anarchy in the Galaxy and Whitehole. Whitehole is much easier for newbies to use 
Also, from the sound of it, you have never editted the game yourself, so I doubt a project to this scale will get finished. |

Actually, no.
-I didn't saw Flying Mario or Ice Mario anywhere -I didn't saw any of the unused SMG leftovers (Ice Swoopers, Tweesters, Galactic Tornadoes, Torpedo Teds, Blue Star Chips, etc.) -no recreations of the unused galaxies/zones of SMG It does have a remake of Bomb-Omb Battlefield and new music tracks, though. Also, I will very probably go with Anarchy in the Galaxy, since I'm going to hack SMG2 and not SMG1. |

Get both.
You could probably use a Wii emulator to play it, but I'm not so confident that a notebook will be able to handle it ____________________ Sorry for the stupidity. That jerk will be dealt with in the most insane way possible. |

Okay, first question: How do I turn the WBFS file of the NTSC Super Mario Galaxy 2 into a ARC file or a RARC file or any other file which Anarchy can read? |

But how, if I can't even open SMG2 with Anarchy in the Galaxy?
And I can't post it into the Hack Ideas Thread as well, because that would be a necro bump otherwise... |

So let me get this straight... You started a project that is going to have those SMG1 unused enemies in SMG2, have the Red Star and Ice Mario, imports of Bob-Omb Battlefield and other retro stages, and new galaxies, yet you haven't even opened the editor yet?
Also, Dolphin can extract the iso, and Whitehole edits both SMG1 and SMG2. Google is your friend |

Posted by Polari Odd, all the websites said that Whitehole is SMG1 exclusive. Will download Whitehole then. Also, while I will add retro stages, I will definitely NOT add Bomb-Omb Battlefield. Not that I don't like this stage, I actually do like this stage a lot. It's just that there are so many fan-created version of this course, that I lost motivation to do that particular course. However, I did had planned to do a fusion of Cool Cool Mountain and Snowman's Land (called "Snowman's Mountain Galaxy"). Also, while I will say that I will import the unused SMG1 stuff to SMG2, then it really isn't so spectacular like you think. I just add these unused stuff, which is coded already (like the Koopa Kameks and the Land Mines, and every unused SMG1 leftover from SMG2). |

Have fun importing those Beta Bowser Landmines into SMG2. Not even SMG2.5 team has managed to do that yet |

Well, I could always try.
However, Whitehole doesn't read WBFS files as well. What should I do? |

Posted by Trinitronity Simple, show your project editor window and show what things you have changed. Hit the print screen button, open windows paint click paste as new image and save as png. You may use photobucket imageshack.us or any other legit photosharing site host your image urls. |

Okay, I will as soon as I have found out, how to extract WBFS files into a format, which WhiteHole can read.
Can some help me there, please? EDIT: Okay, I could convert the WBFS file into an ISO file. However, I now have problem extracting the files from the ISO, but I don't know, how I should do that... |

Open Dolphin. Right click SMG2, then press Properties. From that, go to filesystem. Right click 'Disk' then select 'Extract All Files' |
