Tutorial Creating a 3ds custom theme from scratch with YATA+ v1.1

[exelix11]

I must be doing something wrong, because when I tried to load the theme I was working on to test it to see if i had to edit the bottom screen, it looked like pixel diarrhea.
I'm 99% sure my images are the size that they're supposed to be. Is there a colour limit or something?

Spoiler: Here's the pictures I used for the top and bottom screens

i need to fix the spacing of the two images lmao

Make sure in the theme settings you have both the Top screen and bottom screen Frame type set to "None" and the Draw type to "Texture"

So, I can't get custom SFX working at all even though I have it enabled in settings. I converted some wavs to cwavs and I inserted them into the theme. And I checked the cwav dumper and everything seemed to fine. But when I loaded the theme on my 3DS, my 3DS got an error if I tried moving the cursor. I could open and close the app I currently had highlighted on the screen but when I did that, it just played the default open and close app sounds.

The wavs must not be too long, also before conversion to cwav try to reconvert them to wav (even if they are arleady wavs) with format factory sometimes works

if with music you mean the BGM maybe you reduced too much the quality, take the original wav and reduce gradually the quality until the bgm.bcstm file is smaller than 3.3 mb, also if the music is from a video game you can find it here arleady converted to bcstm: http://www.brawlcustommusic.com/

Before saving always check in the theme settings that the frame type for the top and bottom screen are right

If you use a static top/bottom screen you should set to "none"

Somebody can explain me how to install the theme ? Because I can't.

My 3ds is on 9.9, so i can't use any cfw, i can try to add this in the guide but i need someone to test the CIAs, or easier,you could install the cia of CHMM and change the themes from there

I could test themes, but I only have a few hours when I have time in the week.

I made sure of that, but the same thing happened again.
Could it have something to do with the fact I'm using YATA instead of YATA+? Or that I'm using an existing custom theme as a base?
EDIT:

Spoiler: This is what it looks like on my home menu

This is really nice! I like abstract themes!
Back on topic, you should use YATA+.

YATA+ refuses to launch on my computer at all for some reason, which is why I was trying to do this in YATA instead.

Troubleshooting time!
Do you have the latest (and greatest) .net framework?
Do you have Windows Media Player?

I tried to install the latest version of the .net framework and I got a notification telling me that it's already installed.
Yup.

 

[SomeGamer]

I think I should, but it could have been removed when I upgraded to Windows 10. I'll check in a moment.
Yup.

OK, then do you have an evil antivirus that stops YATA+?
