'''BFBBMix''' is a full game custom level mod of SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom madecreated by [[User:Skyweiss|skyweiss]] with help from other members of the modding community. Its name is a portmanteau and shortening of "BattleBFBB" for Bikini Bottomand "remix."
 
== ModKnown infoissues ==
BFBBMix is a revisit to Battle for Bikini Bottom with new levels, objectives, and music. The terrain and various objects are constructed entirely of simple shapes, like cubes, cones, and cylinders, using [[Industrial Park (level editor)|Industrial Park]] to place them. Most other objects are imported from the original game.
 
* It is highly recommended to enable autosave using the prompt that appears, as there is a low but nonzero chance of crashing at various loading zones throughout the game.
Chapter 1, containing Jellyfish Fields, Downtown Bikini Bottom, Goo Lagoon, and The Poseidome, was released on 14 March 2020.
* A softlock will occur if the player comes in contact with a Thunder Tiki while in Spongeball mode. If this happens, pause the game and warp to an available level to regain control.

Obtain a GameCube copy of Battle for Bikini Bottom as an ISO file, then follow these steps.
'''How to make a Nintendont-compatible ISO'''
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
Extract the zip file, which will make a folder called "files". It's missing the "&&SystemData" folder which will be sourced from a copy of Battle for Bikini Bottom.
# Download [https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/619/ GameCube Rebuilder] and open it.
# Click Image, then select Open.
# In the window that opens, select your Battle for Bikini Bottom GameCube ISO file.
# On the right side of the program, a list of files appears. Right-click "&&SystemData" and click Export.
# In the window that opens, select the "files" folder.
# Click Image, then select Close.
 
Now that BFBBMix has all of its required files, we will create a new ISO file.
# Download and open [https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/619/ Gamecube Rebuilder].
# Click Options, then select "Do not use 'game.toc'." This is necessary to load extra files, like the bonus stages.
# Click Image > Open and find your ISO of Battle for Bikini Bottom.
# Click Root, then select Open.
# Right-click <code>root</code> and click Export, then find a folder to store BFBBMix in. We'll call this your BFBBMix folder.
# In the window that opens, select the "files" folder.
# Click Image > Close.
# Click Root, then select Save.
# [[#Download|Download the latest version of BFBBMix]].
# In the window that opens, select any location for the ISO file.
# Extract the <code>.zip</code> file into the <code>root</code> folder inside your BFBBMix folder. ('''If installing demo:''' Extract just the contents of the <code>files</code> folder, not the whole <code>.zip</code> file.)
# Finally, click Root, then select Rebuild.
# In GameCube Rebuilder, ensure the checkbox next to Options > Do not use 'game.toc' is checked. Then click Root > Open and find the <code>root</code> folder inside your BFBBMix folder.
# Click Root > Save and choose a location to save your BFBBMix ISO.
# Click Root > Rebuild.
 
You can now transfer the ISO to your homebrew Wii like any GameCube game. Press Y at the main menu to ensure you're good to go!

You will need a softmodded Xbox with a dashboard such as UnleashX to play BFBBMix on Xbox.
'''How to install on Xbox'''
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
To play the Xbox version, you need a softmodded Xbox console. You can get help with this in the [https://discord.gg/8BKC3US BfBB speedrunning Discord.]
 
Extract the zip file, which will make a folder called BFBBMix. It's missing the "default.xbe" file which will be sourced from a copy of Battle for Bikini Bottom.
# Extract the contents of a Battle for Bikini Bottom Xbox disc to your hard drive.
# Copy the Battle for Bikini Bottom disc to your Xbox hard drive using the softmod menu. It is now the <code>E:\Games\SpongeBobSquarePants</code> folder.
# [[#Download|Download the latest Xbox version of BFBBMix]].
# Now we need to transfer the BFBBMix folder to your Xbox hard drive. This is similar to transferring the Practice Mod or AutoCB, most conveniently through an FTP client. However you transfer it, it should now be the <code>E:\Games\BFBBMix</code> folder.
# Extract BFBBMix so that it replaces files in your extracted copy of Battle for Bikini Bottom. ('''Note:''' BFBBMix cannot be played using only the downloaded files. You must have a copy of Battle for Bikini Bottom to install BFBBMix to.)
# [[File:BFBBMix_FileExplorer.png|400px]] <div style="clear: both;"></div> Next, open File Explorer and have it set up like this: SpongeBobSquarePants on the left, and BFBBMix on the right. (You can move between the two explorers with the L and R triggers.)
# Transfer the game to your Xbox as you would with any backup copy, e.g. using a file transfer client like Filezilla.
# Scroll to "default.xbe" on the left. Press Start, then select Copy, then OK.
# Scroll to "default.xbe" on the right. Press Start, then scroll to and select Rename XBE Title. This allows you to type in a different name to distinguish BFBBMix from the original game.
 
After resetting the console, you will see BFBBMix in the games menu. Press Y at the main menu to ensure you're good to go!
