TESTTOWN is setup that way to make your life easy for editing items. They are short lived and do not work in a regular town. People visiting your town will not see the modified graphics. Also your regular town won't work properly if you have more than one DLC type.

To make an item that works in all (hacked) towns, it should be turned into "OHDLC". Make something good and post it on the item sharing thread. I may add other glasses/masks later. That's how the Dimentio mask was made.
Finally to make the item available to all towns, it needs its own permanent DLC slot. So far none of the hacked items are good enough for that (Master Sword will likely be the first)

...Assuming someone can rebuild the tip? >_>

oohhh. Now I get it. So on ITEM_TOOL when I first load it and I choose lets say the Red Lightsaber and I edit it. Will it then become OHDLC?

[yoshisrock]

I think it will yes, it will edit your slot for the lightsaber, and you wil see that item, all your lightsabers will turn into said item. And Im pretty sure if you see someone who hasnt contacted hdlc and they see your ohdlc item first, they will only be able to see that item in the slot. no matter who pulls it out, your screen will show the item your wii has it programmed as.

oh cool! I am gonna try that!

If you change the option to import into RVFOREST.DAT you should be able to sdo it without a USB Gecko.

LOL. The texture needs to be fixed in the back and that needs to be released into the wild. DsPet. Do this.

Technically, the colors are off, and his eye pokes through. It might work better as a mask.

Use a hockey mask...
It's much more of a circle than the clown mask...
