Homebrew CHMM - Custom HomeMenu Manager

[Misledz]

I'll create a new topic for CHMM2 so don't waste your time spamming F5 xD.
Anyway, all is ready, the only thing i have to fix is ThemeManage.bin sections writing.

Since no one has asked this yet. I want to know the following if I may. Will help set up an FAQ for you when the thread goes up.

- does setting these themes replace your current purchased themes or does it add along with your purchased themes? Or completely separate.
- I'm aware that changing themes requires you to go to the custom launcher to set those themes, does this mean that the shuffle selection can be edited like the built in one or you need to clear it all and reselect them
- how does the theme cycle work, when you close the lid like the stock theme shuffle or you'd have to set it manually?
- do you need to clear your current theme favorite selection roster to make room for the custom ones?

- Your themes will be all fine but if you want to use Nintendo shuffle theme system you'll have to regenerate your themes extdata.
- Yeah, it's impossible to handle custom themes with Nintendo theme manager.
- Shuffle system is the same of Nintendo ones. The only difference is that you'll use custom themes.
- No, you can start using shuffle system instantly, enabling or disabling this feature is CHMM2 work.

Here's a screenshot for shuffle system:

[emoji14] thank you for the quick feedback, was editing my last post and didn't expect to have it quoted quickly.

Finally last one, when changing the custom shuffle must you revert to stock basic theme like the current one or is there a script that automatically sets it to basic and then to the custom to avoid the infamous error 91

This should be asked to @ihaveamac who is doing all the tests for shuffle system, anyway, it should work without going all the times to Nintendo theme manager (Both for Shuffle System or Base System)

He probably has his hands full atm seeing how busy you both are (massive thanks again for both of your hard work) so I'll wait till the thread is up (hopefully soon) or is there some sort of a testing grounds for feedback. Sorry joined the party late so I guess I missed that testing window.

The way I've always been doing it was resetting Shuffle Favorites to 2 basic themes. There's probably other ways and/or you don't need to do that, but it's never resulted in any errors (assuming CHMM2 was working).

So wait. Just to kill the confusion, it automatically does it to basic before changing or you set it manually?

I'm setting it manually first. I don't know if you need to, that's just how I've been doing it.

Why are all the screenshots CHMM2 creates pink?

 

[Rinnegatamante]

Why are all the screenshots CHMM2 creates pink?

Random ones, color will be selectable from an amount of 5 colors (at least for first release): Cyan, Orange, Pink, Red, Magenta.

Either rinne is a she or pink is what real men wear.

I can select them, but the select button changes color AND takes a screenshot. And the CHMM.bmp is always pink.

Don't know what test version are you using. Latest one @ihaveamac is now using works as intended.
Obviously test versions may not respect final product.

Because is FORBIDDEN! Nobody on this forum should or could give you that info!... I suggest you use Custom Themes... More of them are very cool too, if you want. Look onto this: http://www.3dsthemes.com/

Could you add support for an alternative method to the smdh, because for people who do not run windows, its not easy to build them.

maybe json with a png icon?

I'm nearly certain that SMDH is a format that the 3DS uses natively for HOME Menu games / apps.
