I'm making a tool based on Every File Explorers which helps us to edit the layouts or other files. For now, I added the option to show some colors in the UI. For now you still need to edit via hxD, but at least you can find where comes some colors in different layouts...

So with this, I can search that hex colors in a decompressed .bin with hxD and replace manually. I'll add the feature to get the actual offset of what color are you aditing
Well why not just include an edit function?
Btw. It doesnt show the glow color at all. That's part of P_BG_D_00 as well.
And don't forget to include the Alpha Channel it's important.
Can you maybe change up the preview thing so the text doesn't show up as white square? (This happens because it doesn't have a texture to apply color to. Maybe use a something that just days "Text" as default. So it shows "Text" (colored) in the preview instead of a white square)

Some dudes Dekay traviar buff627 and alredy have a cool site and documentetion at homemenu.co
@TheDeKay @Traiver @Biff627
I believe Alerdy runs the site and discord. Biff manages the post on here and Dekay and Traiver do researching and manage the spreadsheet.

Anyone know what I do with this "SystemApp.0000.00000083" file? I've tried the ctrtool.exe and MSBT Reloaded to decompress it and I havent gotten anything to work.
 
Guys, If I follow all the steps, can I keep my original Home.cia file to install incase I fuck something up?
(As In, just FBI install it, then re-attempt modification?)
So I dont have to restore a backup every time I fuck uop or want to revert back?

Did you use Decrypt9 to decrypt your CIA? (deep).
Follow this guide it might be easier to understand.

Mostly it crashes after you try to install and you have to reboot anyway.
But in case you get an "already exists" error or something along those lines and you know for sure it messed up, then simply install the default home menu and restart.
Alternatively you can use GodMode9 to back up the HomeMenu from the NAND (simply copy it on a folder on your SD. tmd, content and the cmd file).
And if you brick you launch GodMode9 and copy these files back.
You can also use this tool to simply rebuild one Home Menu without any changes and then install that if you get errors using a default menu.
(The tool is awesome. Use it :D)


Since I haven't really shared anything yet (and people may think I don't know what I am talking about)
Here is something I have done:
