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

[Small Kat]

Bootanim9 only works with screeninit payloads, do you have non-screeninit?

You mean a9lh v1?

I don't know anything about A9LH v1.

But when I installed A9LH about a week ago before plailect updated the guide, you had a choice between screeninit and nonscreeninit payloads, and bootanim9 only works with screeninit.

Well i heard the v2 supports screeninit and bigger payloads

You'll need to upgrade to V2 then

I assume you use this to upgrade? You'll also want screeninit payloads if you want this to work

EDIT: Never mind, got it working.

I've come from the Plailect's recent tutorial, and i can't use this. Display a Black cat on a dark room (Black screen) and doesn't boot sysNAND.

Are you using screen-init or non-screen-init A9LH? Because if you're using non-screen-init A9LH, BootAnim9 won't work. If you want to use this, uninstall non-screen-init A9LH and install screen-init A9LH.

I'm sure there is a guide written somewhere about making the animations and compressing them, but does it include optimizing the animation? Such as which options to select when asked by the program, or what format should the file be in, how to achieve best... performanceor framerate or something.... Is there a optimization thing?

How do I install this? I don't really get the instructions. Can someone tell me step by step how to do this?

The animation I use keeps looping on boot. I'm assuming it's because it dosen't have a config. Which can I use?

It isn't that, it's probably because you set BootAnim9 as your arm9payload.bin. The file "arm9payload.bin" should be the payload you want to boot into, not BA9.

I don't understand.

arm9payload.bin has to be luma's arm9loaderhax.bin renamed

Download latest luma files. Change the file in the luma archive from arm9loaderhax.bin to arm9payload.bin Then put it in the bootanim9 folder.

Would be funny to have the 3DS just flash the words "You got owned" and just not boot up.

 

[Majickhat55]

I'd rather use this
