ROM Hack Moflex Helper - Script

[Rohul1997]

Here is a script that I made that will help you in the process of creating a Moflex CIA

Requirements:
The Mobiclip Multicore Encoder is required to be already installed (Try that Chaos site).
Everything else is straight forward just run Moflex-Helper.bat and follow the instructions.
To avoid anything from going wrong make sure to follow everything how it's been told.
Source - GitHub - Rohul1997/Moflex-Helper

Note: For USA region consoles you will have problems like crashing. So I recommend you use the homebrew app Luma Locale and set the Moflex CIAs region to EUR

Here's a video of the whole process of me making and testing Moflex CIA using the Moflex Helper Script:

Moflex Helper v2.0
Make sure you grab this pack, don't use the old pack.
Big Update:
The CIA file will now be directly built. So no need for 3DS Builder and 3DS to CIA converter.

Automatically make a Bimg PNG file from a given image. You will also be able to make multiple Bimg PNG files automatically if you want to use a different image for each video. So you won't need to use an image editor to insert an image inside the blank space on the top-left.

Made some changes to make it more user friendly (Store Title ID to remind user just in case they forget)
Some corrections.

Spoiler: Moflex Helper v1.2

Moflex Helper v1.2
Thanks to Akawashi, the instructions should be more understandable and in more detail.

Edits by Akawashi:
Changed all text Color to Light Yellow (Makes things easier to see from far away or on a small screen)

Changed the wording for most of the script to make the instructions as easy to understand and follow as possible, providing step-by-step instructions.

Added Audacity installable (and plugin installable for Win10 users) in the new "Extras" Folder.

Removed the need to drag and drop moflex files from users chosen output folder to Moflex Helper\Input\title, by instructing them to set the moflex output directory to Moflex Helper\input\title

Changed the Folder name from "Moflex.Helper" -> "Moflex Helper" as the "." was preventing the folder from showing up correctly when browsing for directories in 3DSBuilder. (it just showed up as "Moflex" NOT "Moflex.Helper" and was easy to miss... removing the "." fixed this.

Spoiler: Moflex Helper v1.1

Trust me, doing all this without using my script takes hell a lot longer

Are moflex files large? If not I think there's a possibility of using them in homebrew.

They're not more larger than FFMPEG videos files. Someone on that chaos site made a .moflex of the movie Pets: Almost 1gb of size.

It depends on the video size. A 30 sec video will be about 6mb.

I made a .cia and changed the region of the .cia to EUR and still doesn't work. Everytime i run it, it crashes. I've tried other regions and language settings and still nothing.

So the cia installs fine and opens fine. But when you play a video it crashes?

It doesn't play the video at all, just black screen and then crashes.

So you are able to access the list where you choose the videos, right?

When i launch the .cia, it stays on a black screen, then it launch me back to Home Menu and reboots.

Ah ok you must've done something wrong. Is it possible if you could send me the file? Or is the file size too large?

The filesize is 121MB. I tried to use this video as a test and i followed all the steps of the Helper.

Here's the problem:
You haven't edited your movie_title.csv and movie_bnrname.csv files properly.
On your movie_title.csv file you have left it like this:

Spoiler: Wrong

When it's meant to be like this:

Spoiler: Correct

This is because you are only using one video so there should only be 1 title info.

On your movie_bnrname.csv file you have left it like this:

Spoiler: Wrong

When it's meant to be like this:

Spoiler: Correct

This is because you are only using one video and so one .bimg file. So there should only be 1 .bimg written.
