Homebrew Question Custom themes?

[xXxSwagnemitexXx]

i was just wondering if anybody has thought about Custom Themes for the switch yet, and maybe how long until we get them?

Who knows, maybe nintendo is afraid it may be used for a exploit!

yeah, they probably are

But why not a a theme tool from a homebrew app?

chances are themes would be saved to internal memory rather than the sd card making that unlikely as it would be what is considered a secondary exploit which would require an exploit to setup in the first place.



On a side note I think it wouldn't be that hard to swap out the dark and light themes during system boot with cfw.

I was actually looking into trying to make something for theming. Turns out the theme is hard coded in the OS and is a little beyond my current skills. It won’t be a easy task currently.

Might be something that happens whenever we have CFW. Who knows tho!

ehh....ya, let's just wait till we at least have the ability to texture swap games before we go straight to the top with doing it to the os XD

I think it would be harder because the themes are probably in the nand, stuff like music would be hard or custom background

 

[DocKlokMan]

Themes and theme graphics are coded directly into the OS, it's not like on 3DS where it pulled from a theme package. So until Switch adds downloadable theme support it's unlikely.

I would be happy with just a custom background, don't really need full theme support.
