ok thx again for your help

ok thx again for your help

yeah a different emunand (Rei is probably best last i knew) or a9lh are probably your best bets, I haven't checked up on Brickway recently but I've heard not very good things in recent times about their programming/product in general. Not very safe for your 3ds, assuming Gateway's still confused.

It might be worth to mention I couldn't get this tool working on Windows 7 due to "forbidden access"(rough translation) on both the tool and the theme checker, even when tried to run with admin rights.
I'm not sure if this needs one of those frameworks(.net, c++, etc...) or some other redistributable that the pc I used didn't had. (can't tell much more since I'll probably not use that pc again)

So I can make a theme on Usagi's 3ds theme editor then pack it with this tool?

worked nice with my win7, the only thing was the themes not going with the sound for some reason, but on the preview it had sound

I installed it in native FM 11.2.
At first it worked, i can change the theme that i packaged in the CIA.
However, when i go to eshop to do some searching and close the eshop, all the installed themes have gone.
Why is that?

Use freeshop

 

[dudephanith]

Use freeshop

I can use freeshop to search for games and such.
I am just saying opening and closing eshop corrupt the installed theme file.

Eshop erase all the DLC (and so the themes installed by a cia) that are not yours. If you're gonna use the eshop some times, then use CHMM2, not this.
EDIT: By "not yours" I mean that you did not buy them. You don't buy a theme that you create.

Okay, i see.
I am having trouble with CHMM2 that is why i like this one better.

 

[Nightwinter]

[colt05]

Great software and all, and great for installing a theme, which works very well. But I think you need to fix one problem with the program: It uses the Title ID of NES Jumping Mario, which uses the title ID "0004008C00009800".

Please allow the user to imput their own Title ID when creating a Theme CIA, so that it doesn't conflict with other themes and causing an error to appear on the Theme Shop, because it does exactly that.

So my request to you is, to put in an option to allow the user to put in their own title ID for the theme CIA.
