Is this code working ?

Yeah but currently it uses news:u (so only on NH 1.1B and CFW i think)

Well maybe it could be changed to use news:s?

And maybe it could also be changed to add an image to it? Or launch a certain software title? Is that possible?

 

[CeeDee]

What list of services are you talking about? It'd be nice to see if other things are possible.

Theorically, if i'm not wrong, @Steveice10 pushed a new version for the news wrapper in the great-refactor trunk of ctrulib which should add other "sub"-service access of news service without any syntax change.
Updating libctru used from lpp-3ds should add also NH2 support but at the moment i have no free time to work on lpp-3ds cause university.

Will you ever give the source code for this? i wanna try making this work.

 

[Stecker8]

Lua code:
System.addNotification("Congrats!","You installed lpp-3ds successfully!")

I test it and....
Don´t work in *hax 2.5.

 

[Ptrk25]

Don´t work in *hax 2.5.

Because the Lua Player isn't updated yet.

OK but look this:

[Ptrk25]

Yeah he has to update to news:s first

 

[Games&Stuff]

Is it safe to use and what is thid exactly?

I had this interesting idea as I was looking through some of the *hax 2.5 stuff. I noticed in the list of the services *hax 2.5 has access to that news:s can now be accessed. So, I decided to create a little bit of code to test and see if we could add notifications to the 3DS. It worked, and then I got the idea that programs could use this to log crashes and other debug info that a user could submit as a bug report(of course, only if the program is able to detect the crash before it happens). This would make it unnecessary for log files to be made, as this is easier(I think anyway).

So, for those interested, I made a .3dsx to do this(attached)

Try it and let me know what you think!

Make an app that lets you make your own notifications, and edit/delete notifications!
