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

[Docmudkipz]

Same error

Are you sure it's not pumping out an anim file? It looked like ffmpeg did its thing

I don't know what you mean.
I have the N64 boot screen and the "Cool Shit" splashes but both only go about 5-15 fps.

A couple of those are set to that fps in the config since those were back when 15fps was the only way to hit full speed

How do I change it? I don't have a config file...

Its the first byte in the config files in the folders you put them in. If you need a 30 fps config file download something like the Doom anim and pull the config from that

Could someone please do this for me?
I think it is beyond my possibilities at the moment...

If you updated your a9lh add make it arm9loaderhax_si.bin

Dont compress it, and your the acutal size of the gif doesnt do anything for what the final size is

That worked, thanks alot!

If its not the configuration it could also be your sd-card. since the animations are raw frames, every frame is big, and it needs to read more from the SD-card. That's also one of the reasons why we are limited to max about 30 Frames in generell, because the 3ds cant read very fast from SD-cards.

 

[ShinkoNet]

Am I correct in saying that we can only have a max of 10 animations? (Folders 0-9)

Ive been using this for a while and i love it. However, with all the animations i have made, they all seems to be slower than 30 frames per second. (I'm not all too sure how I could tell the difference.) In the example video posted, the animation seems to run a lot faster than mine.

This is the same with me and another guy posting in the thread. We're all running old3DS right?

The "fix" I currently have to make it at least a bit faster is to change the config file in EACH animation (copypaste one in if an animation doesn't have it) to 60fps
How? going into a hex editor and replacing the first byte with "3C".

It's still quite slow. Can the mimiga OP help us out? :3

Where can i get the config folder?

You can create it with a blank file, then just go into a hex editor (make sure there's no bytes) and type in "3C 00"


orrrrr just use a theme like the Doom theme found in the theme thread and edit that.

It worked. it still is quite slow like you said but i definitely saw an improvement

Noob question-
will this break luma 3ds? will this work on my a9lh luma 3ds no screen init?

No it wont break anything. If you're using the newest builds of A9LH rename the bootanim9 payload arm9loaderhax_si.bin and it should work

I'm currently having my final mid-terms and exams. Considering I barely studied during the semester and I'm trying to make as much time as possible, all I can say is "frameskipping".

Essentially, use a lower fps while converting but specify a higher one in the config file.
I guess 0.7 will take a bit longer than expected, but here's the change log (you can also see it on GitHub):

- new plaintext config format, alongside a converter for those who are too lazy (done)
- new chainloader, I'm thinking of doing it more Luma-like, but I'm not sure at all (done)
- double buffering (sort of done? it's not switching framebuffer pointers, but rather reading to a buffer and then copying from that buffer to the framebuffer. memcpy is infinitely faster than a file read, so screen tearing is gone)
- screen init (not done and wont be for a while, I'm too much of a pussy to install a new a9lh version)

Could you be a bit more clear, some of us are noobs :3 ( Me to the ^3 )

Latest a9lh builds by AW (the one used in the guide) perform screen init when your payload is named "arm9loaderhax_si.bin"
I still don't understand why no screen init is the default, but at this point I don't even care about a9lh "v2".

 

[OldGlass]

Where do you get the arm9payload.bin?
I only have arm9loaderhax.bin
