Data-searching for this game

Anyone know how to transclude info on this game's data and gather everything from it?

It seems we never got the names of the seven boss Tikis in this game in any other way. Will the game's source code reveal their names on their models? BooDestroyer (talk) 13:41, 8 November 2017 (EST)

We don't have source code for the game, so I can't answer that. The first thing I would do is to try looking into the game's executable or text files to see if there's anything or note. --From: divingkataetheweirdo (talk) 21:18, 8 November 2017 (EST)
Alright, we can start by doing that. BooDestroyer (talk) 12:07, 5 December 2017 (EST)
Anybody here have the know-how on how to do that? I don't, unfortunately. BooDestroyer (talk) 19:56, 18 December 2017 (EST)
Their names as best as I can tell from the game data are:
  • W1: Kalimba
  • W2: Maraca Gang
  • W3: Gong-Oh
  • W4: Banjo Bottom
  • W5: Wacky Pipes
  • W6: Xylobone
  • W7: Cordian

So this is what you picked up from the game data itself, eh? Great, thanks! This'll do! Not sure why we never got these in any media pertaining to the game back then though. Did none of these publishers get the memo or what? And not only that, but Gong-Oh, Banjo Bottom, and Xylobone were mentioned in the PAL version of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, in their respective boss trophy descriptions. (But I don't know where they got "KRAZY Kalimba" from, because even the description for that still calls him just "Kalimba") BooDestroyer (talk) 07:51, 8 January 2018 (EST)
yeah, these are from actor instance names in the level scripting data + names of certain assets, mostly from character/animation data and some from UI textures. Aruki (talk) 17:07, 8 January 2018 (EST)
