Homebrew [Release] CHMM2 - Custom Home Menu Manager 2

[ketal]

Grrrr why is it seeming to freeze no matter what theme I start with???? What am I missing????? I thought it was a problem theme, but now it does it no matter what theme is there when I get out of CHMM. So what's the problem???? I did get the Nintendo shuffle working right again, I learned that the error is expected, but why won't it stop freezing on the custom themes?????

Which themes are you using? What's your console? Which entrypoint are you using?

old 3ds regular. What's an entrypoint? You mean Ironhax? I tried paring it down to 7 themes but had 10. Two named primal Kyogre....first, fourth and bottom middle here.

The third theme here

The only one here
http://3dsthemes.com/Search/Jirachi

The ones here that say Pokemon Charizard X and Pokemon Mega Charizard X, with some kind of error in the word 'Pokemon'

And one from here which was title Alpha Sapphire.

I'll try installing those themes ASAP; did you put a simple color theme before applying those?

 

[ChicagoMel]

Yes. I put two of those on shuffle.

New here, but been using CHMM1 for a week now. Love this. Hoping for when CHMM2 is no longer in BETA. Great job!!

 

[ChicagoMel]

Adding that it isn't just the shuffle mode where themes freeze, but anytime I use them on the program. I don't get it.

Known issue with CHMM2, it's supposed to be fixed in the next update.

I was looking further into the bgm cut off issue the other day, and it's definitely about file size. The bad news is that while it's consistent, the specific size might be firmware/theme/user/etc dependant. Testing all with the exact same theme file, bgm of size 3,190,000 works for me while 3,200,000 gets cut off (but still works properly with no shuffle). This apparently makes my 10.0 n3ds more tolerant than Misledz' who had problems with 3,181,592 (unless that was just a different issue). The number of themes in the shuffle doesn't matter, I was testing with 3 and 6 (I avoided higher since other people have mentioned problems with 7+, though I personally haven't had any).

Sorry I don't have more specific sizes, I lost my notepad list to a power cut oops. It's completely consistent on my n3ds so I can try again if needed (though aiming for such specific file sizes is preeetty slow).

For reference, the normal non-shuffle max size is 3,371,008 according to the conversion tool.

Personally I'd be happy to decide the new max size is 3,100,000 or so but it's annoying that already existing themes aren't compatible.

 

[ChicagoMel]

Is that why my stuff freezes?

Is that why my stuff freezes?

No, this specific bug just cuts off the end of the music (which in turn stops the music from looping).

 

[ChicagoMel]

Anyone know what causes the freezing?

 

[NuikopeaDemon]

This is sooooooooooooo much simple to use than 3ds_homemenu_extdata

 

[ChicagoMel]

So why wont it work for me??

 

[Mauste]

I, too, am experiencing the preview error with BGM.ogg files. They play perfectly in CHMM1.
Hopefully the next update is not too far away

Hi
CHMM2 is not working in 3DSX for me (but CHMM1 yes) by Ninjhax2 on my N3DS 9.0 SysNand (using Ninjhax2 on Sky3DS).
BTW, the CIA work fine in my Gateway EmuNand.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

And whatever I use, when I try a preview, I have on a black screen:

Error: [string "?"]:667: attempt to i
ndex a nil value (field '?X
Press A to restart
Press B to exit
Press Y to enable FTP server

FTP state: OFF

This is what happen when I try a preview with a theme that have preview files (preview.png and BGM.ogg).
If I try a preview on a theme that don't have preview files, I have a freeze.

 

[jeffersonairplane]

Good thing the glitches/bugs are being ironed out in BETA form, while I will stick with CHMM1 for now.
Can't wait for the actual CHMM2 release candidate!

 

[ChicagoMel]

Im wondering too if the freeze issue might get fixed in the update.

If I try a preview on a theme that don't have preview files, I have a freeze.

Known issue with CHMM2, it's supposed to be fixed in the next update.

Easy fix: Remove the BGM.ogg until the update. The BGM.ogg is entirely optional. If you don't have the BGM.ogg, the preview simply doesn't play any music, but it'll display the Preview.png.

 

[ChicagoMel]

Ughh even on chmm1 they freeze. I wonder if removing and reinstalling would help. They never froze before. Or whats the file that may need removing? I forgot. I can look for them again.
