Davdii2848: bfntoolkit page

{{todo|Document what the settings in data.json do}}
bfntoolkit is a tool that unpacks and packs font files developed by [https://github.com/NerduMiner NerduMiner].

== Unpacking and packing ==

To unpack a font file, drag the pikmin2main.bfn file onto bfntoolkit.exe. This will create a folder containing PNG files that must be edited with an external image editing software.

To pack the edited font images, drag the pikmin2main folder onto bfntoolkit.exe to create a new file called "pikmin2main_new.bfn", which is the edited font file.

== data.json ==
In addition to the PNG files, there's also a configuration JSON that lets you configure the font, including width and leading.

Notepad++

2026-04-28T03:29:29Z

Davdii2848: i forgor

Notepad++ is a free and open source Notepad replacement that's formatted for code editing, making it preferable over standard Notepad.

A lot of files in Pikmin 2's root happen to be .txt files, and the types of commonly edited .txt files in Pikmin 2 include:
* Entity parameters
* Lighting parameters
* Camera parameters
* Pelletlists
* Cave music configuration
* Bgm/StreamList (Music volume)
* stages.txt (Areas, challenge mode, and vs)
* And many more

Notepad++ is ideal for parameter editing, while stuff like [https://pikmintkb.com/wiki/Drought_Enders_Cave_Creator caves/unit sets] and [https://pikmintkb.com/wiki/Pikmin_2_Routes_Editor_%26_Gen_Editor area layouts] are better off being edited with different community tools. (though there may be an instance where you'll have to edit manually)

Davdii2848: WiiExplorer page creation

WiiExplorer is a RARC archive tool developed by SuperHackio, Bussun, and MichaelHinrichs.
In addition to extracting/packing by dragging and dropping like Lunaboy RARC Tools, it offers a GUI allowing you to edit the contents of .szs files and configure them.

== Recommended settings for types of archives ==
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Thing !! Configuration
|-
| enemyParms.szs || 32 After Encode Padding, this is necessary to prevent Fiddleheads from causing severe lag.
|-
| \ onyon \ arc.szs || No YAZ0 Compression

==Notes==
JPN Demo is the only version to use the Demo Mix. All [[Pikmin_2|other releases]] use the Final Mix.

Various naming elements give clues to the contents of an AST file.
* The prefix ff_ tends to denote fanfares.
* The prefixes c and vs typically denote Challenge Mode and 2-Player Battle respectively.
* The letter u in a filename typically denotes tracks used underground.
* The letters o and l typically denote Olimar and Louie respectively.
* The suffixes 32 and 44 tell the sample rate of a track.

==Notes==
JPN Demo is the only version to use the Demo Mix. All [[Pikmin_2|other releases]] use the Final Mix.

Various naming elements give clues to the contents of an AST file.
* The prefix ff_ tends to denote fanfares.
* The prefixes c and vs typically denote Challenge Mode and 2-Player Battle respectively.
* The letter u in a filename typically denotes tracks used underground.
* The letters o and l typically denote Olimar and Louie respectively.
* The suffixes 32 and 44 tell the sample rate of a track.

Throughout the years, ''Pikmin'' fans have tinkered with the files inside the games in order to better learn how they work, and to create custom content. Since there are a lot of nuances in every little thing, and since newcomers to the concept of file editing show up all the time, this wiki was created with the purpose of serving as a knowledge base for all that the fans know!

Pikmin 2 troubleshooting

2025-08-16T21:33:12Z

Davdii2848: Tweaked the page formatting

Solutions to common problems that can occur while editing ''Pikmin 2'''s files.

Note: Get the automatic crash debugger screen code from [https://pikmintkb.com/wiki/Pikmin_2_instructions this page] before continuing, as that crash screen can provide valuable info on what caused a crash.
== Custom models ==
===My custom model has random stretchy bits ===
:Check your weight painting on the model, partial weights should not be used.

== Overworlds and Caves ==
=== The changes I made to the overworld aren't applying ===
:You need to create a new save

=== Adding more sublevels to a vanilla cave crashes ===
:Make sure the number of entries in the BgmList (located in <code>user/Totaka</code>) for the cave matches the number of sublevels that are in the cave.

=== Loading a cave stays stuck for longer than usual and eventually crashes Dolphin ===
:Open the [[cave definition file]] and go to the sublevel you were trying to load. Make sure that the amount of entries on <code>TekiInfo</code>, <code>ItemInfo</code>, etc. blocks matches the number present at the start of that same block (this number commented with <code>num</code>).

== Other common crashes ==
===The crash screen said "Memory Alloc Error"===
:That means the game is out of memory. Try reducing the size of a model, or the amount of enemies in an overworld, or whatever change you made that caused the error

I'm a growing Pikmin 2 modder who specializes in custom models and 2d screens.
I don't have a mod I'm actively working on or contributing to but I do like modding Pikmin 2 for the fun of it.

I see value in the Technical Knowledge Base as it can make for a definitive place to document and consult any modding information about the Pikmin games.

Screen file list (Pikmin 2)

Davdii2848: Added more images; If anyone is able to display "result_fueta" and "result_heta" in-game, feel free to replace the blo gui images with better ones.

Below is a file list of all screens in ''Pikmin 2''. Screen resources are usually contained in SZS archives, with BTI textures, BLO screen files and BCK/BPK/BTK animations within these archives.
