Ok, now trying to do custom SFX. Got all what is needed for that. When pressing Create CWAVs chunks, i cant import anything there. Any reason why ?

I did it by creating a WAV, then Importing to convert to BCRSTM and then to BCSTM and then renaming the final
file BMG.bstm, It's a headache converting 3 times but it worked.

Hi, just downloaded YATA plus master, what do I open to start editing.

Also are there any applications other than Photoshop for making the images the right size?

My bgm.bcstm file is too quiet, even at full volume. I tried boosting it by 5 dB in audacity and it does sound louder when I play it on YATA+, but doesnt seem to have an effect when on the 3ds.

Try to normalize it instead!
The 3DS speakers suck
Sadly yes. But I equalize my BGMs to sound a lot better on 3DS speakers.

Audacity, I cut the song lowered the bitrate and then converted it twice using YATA into my BGM
I don't know anything about music apps btw, Photoshop is my forte =p

This is the tune I want to edit for my home menu:
https://mega.nz/#!PtEHTYpS!7Bgn8O1mTMl0-_40mX6YXYO6zc8Jyu5-mo-SD6inSUA

It's 6MBs so I had to cut it in half and reduce bitrate, but how can I eliminate that
cracking noise?
Try this!

Is there a certain way to get a PNG of the preview, or should I use a snipping tool?
Just apply the theme on your 3DS, go back to the Home Menu, press and hold Y and press right on the plus control pad! It'll save a screenshot of both screens on your SD card. ;)

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
