yeah
and will skip the missing ones too

Nice!
It's good to know that, I'll do that when I get home.
Thanks for the confirmation.

...
it seems one of the servers hosting most of the backgrounds is down

Please update Mastermod to get the dol with updated links (using send0r's server)

 

[AbdallahTerro]

@send0r which version is your latest mod now?

 

[send0r]

still 403 because of private things that happened. I worked the last two days on the mod again. For now it seems like everythings working excect reading the color from a file. It always gets green. I try fixing this today. Even if this won't get fixed I'll upload the update today. All of you waited long enough.

Do you wish the website to be updated or is it still fine?

EDiT: Think i fixed it. Testing everything and uploading later

Everything works now. Also I got myself a AGS-001 from a thrift shop for 8 dollars. Am a happy.

 

[AbdallahTerro]

website is fine
Glad you fixed the remaining bugs

 

[send0r]

You all waited long enough:
Mr. Mysterio's Mod r422 is online
Everything is working as expected except changing the text colour. I hope to fix this asap

 

[send0r]

Just updated the mod again:
Changing the text colour by using textcolor.ini is working now like before. Just place an hexadecimal RGBA value into this file and Nintendont changes the colour like you wish (for example: 0000FFFF is blue). This means your old textcolor.ini files are compatible like in the past

I also decided to not enable the "algorithm" to detect how bright your background colour is. This peace of code would need patches with every update of Nintendont and was not very accurate, so not worth anymore as your have a better "effect" using the textcolor.ini-method

what was the problem then?

Do you mean the algorithm for detecting how bright the picture is?
The end result changes with the size of boot.dol. If boot.dol is larger then the result is for example 165 for a specific picture. For the same one with a smaller boot.dol the result is 113.
This method was used when no textcolor.ini was found so that you always see text on your screen even with a dark background...

I mean
"Everything is working except changing the text colour"
became
"Changing the text colour by using textcolor.ini is working now"
What was wrong with the code?

Ah ok
I have the unsigned integer text_color. I read the data from textcolor.ini directly to text_color. There was my logical failure.
Unsigned int is of length four bytes. Because of this, fatFS only read four bytes of the file.
Now I read the data to a char[8] and "convert" them to unsigned int for text_color using strtoul

 

[AbdallahTerro]

yeah this char[x] function is a bliss
I use it in all my ID6 to theme url generation using snprintf too

Yeah just think of declaring a new char for each character to store

Which mod do you use?

 

[Edu64]

Which mod are you using?

Nintendont MasterMOD by ABZ, the first link in page 1.
3.400 version works in another folder.

When does it Crash exactly? Before showing up the game menu, during device selection (SD or USB), even before that?

 

[AbdallahTerro]

don't rename folders, everything is hardcoded to use apps/nintendont folder only

Why? Were there issues using a dynamic method?
