Homebrew [RELEASE] BootAnim9 - Custom boot animations for your 3DS!

[xXDungeon_CrawlerXx]

Latest build includes *great* streaming from files, that is: no more loading times, file limit, and up to 30fps streaming!

Special thanks to https://github.com/chaoskagami for fixing all of my dumb mistakes and for actually using FatFS instead of using a wrapper like I did!

tried it, hangs up after gif ended. worked fine with 0.2

You should make a menuhax simulation mode that flashes colors and randomly freezes the system :^)

Are you sure you have a file named 'arm9payload.bin'?

like I said. It worked fine with Version 0.2 (yea, my Payload is saved as arm9payload.bin)

 

[DarkRioru]

excuse me for asking a random a9lh question but, does the safe installer have to be booted from sysnand or emunand?

 

[Ripper00420]

Any possible way of using this as a Menuhax payload to have animation with Emunand as well??

Changed some numbers so it won't tell you to that 16-30 is too high. Anyone with shell scripting knowledge greater than mine tell me what I'm doing wrong here? I cant seem to get it to anywhere past the read command. Rather it will skip to the end and give me a syntax error when I run it through my terminal.

#!/bin/sh
maxbytesize=5000000
minfps=5
maxfps=15
echo "Top screen or bottom screen?"
read text
   if [ "$text" = "1" ]; then
     clear
     echo "What do you want your framerate to be, any number between 5 and 15?"
     read fps
   if [ $fps -lt $minfps ]; then
     echo "Please pick a number greater than 5"
     read -p "Press enter to continue"
     exit
   elif [ $fps -gt $maxfps ]; then
     echo "Please pick a number less than 15"
     read -p "Press enter to continue"
     exit
   else
clear
fi
exit

On a side note, anyone else stuck at the end of the animation with the new payload?

Appears to be a common issue. Looking into it right now.

EDIT: Do you have a N3DS?

o3ds

 

[Wolfvak]

OK, someone else had the same issue but had an o3ds. Don't have a N3DS so I can't test properly. Looking into it rn

The "stuck at the end" glitch happened to me with a custom anim too.

I'm waiting for a more stable release before going deeper with it. Gif editing is a pain on GIMP, and it's pretty slow when showing on the 3DS...

Did it happen with the included animation as well?

 

[Shirako]

the bottom anim works for n3ds, but top anim whenever i drag a gif it becomes an sgi file or something

Nope. It worked with the included one.

are you using the script I wrote to convet them?

yes, i downloaded a random ffmpeg.exe from the internet and the bottom animation works fine

What even is an sgi file? Try following the instructions on my GitHub page https://github.com/Wolfvak/BootAnim9

Could you right click and click edit on the script and paste the code into a code box ([*code][*/code] without the *)

 

[Wolfvak]

OH CRAP
I just noticed, the latest commit changes certain things that should *not* have changed. For now, just use v0.2

 

[Shirako]

when i said sgi file, i meant it stopped at output.rgb, it didn't complete i think.
