Hacking DSTWO Skins

[blastar]

Nice skins, muchy liking. How hard is the skin editor to use? From what I've read, it's not fully translated yet...

i'm the author auf this editor and i choosed 'english' for default... i think it's better than my mother tounge... if you find some correction please report!

I miss the calendar from my previous flashcarts.
Are they not possible with the dstwo?

.... also it's being updated every now and again to make it better, if you want the latest version I suggest heading over to supercard's DSTWO forum, I'm not sure if the one linked here is the latest.

That's why I also added the link to the forums - so that people can check. I'm not always popping in to update the link

@ Via: First post been updated with your skin

I basically ripped everything from the original pink skin and just changed the background.

Orange Skin

I don't mean to double post, but it's just to let CannonFoddr know there's a new skin in his thread so he can update the OP.

Bluelights

I'm actually not sure how to install a loading screen, but I made one anyways for those who do know.

Edit: Figured out how to change the loading screen. Replace DSGAME.nds in the _dstwo folder with the one hacked with the bluelights loading screen found in the zip file of my skin.

Edit2: Made a "Plugin" skin to match the other one

Done-&-Done ... All on first post now

@ coattails: can you check the 'How to change the Loading Screen' instruction I've placed on first post..
I THINK that is how you did it, but really need confirmation - thanks

Yeah that's how I did it, those instructions are perfect.

What.. even the 'offset value' was right ??? - Wow I'm better than I thought (I wasn't sure 'cos it's a bit hard to see if the top edge was exactly right)

 

[coattails]

Yeah I got the exact same offset, it's most-likely going to change with the next EOS update though.

Very nice skin Coattails ;D. Now all we need is to wait for them to make the GBA emulator skinnable

.

It's already skinnable, just change the images in the gui folder which is inside the system folder.

Erm - GBA Emulator is 'skinnable' - sort off - Look in '/NDSGBA/System/gui/' folder & you'll see the graphics used for the main menu etc

(oh - & to check something out - does anyone else have a graphics file with a name of '?µÁÁ.bmp' (or similar) in that folder ??? - it's a small orange floppy disk icon)

Nice themes

any chance a Zelda one is on the works?

i like the one on my Wood but a sexy supercard one wouldn't go amis

or just plain sexy anime like Darkways's one

 

[CannonFoddr]

any chance a Zelda one is on the works?

Guess some1 could make one (I might even try another) - Any preference to the type of graphics ??
would you like 'Cartoony', 'Grownup','Logos' or a mixture ?

mm.. when I try to edit my loading screen. I try to boot up the NDS game plug in, and it doesnt load, all I see is the bottom screen, just the skin no games. What have i done wrong?

Do you see anything ??? like folders etc

If not I can only guess that when you edited your 'Loading...' screen - you didn't do it right quite right.

When using the program on first post to change the 'Loading..' screen - You MUST make sure you have the existing 'Loading' screen showing EXACTLY right before you replace it with whatever you want to change it to.

Your replacement graphic MUST also be exactly 256 x 192 pixels in size, & I think it also has to be 24-bit colour depth as well (although that part I'm not to sure about)

One way to see if you have made a mistake is to replace the 'DSGame.nds' from the official download & see if you get the games etc showing... if so, then you'll know it was the 'DSGame.nds' file that was causing the problem

 

[TaNmAn150]

Hmm.. okay, i'll try it again. thanks for the fast reply, let me get back to you

EDIT - Fixed, lol now I feel dumb. Thanks alot for your help!
