Homebrew [Release] Homebrew Launcher with grid layout

[Xenosaiga]

@Columbo2811 @Xenosaiga
Thanks guys. It's easy to get disheartened after putting in so much work.

@shoemaker
Good idea. I'll consider this if I can't get page-by-page loading to work (which is looking likely).

I've just uploaded beta 61:

• Various fixes merged from @Garcia98 including New3DS speedup on hax 2.5
• Added loading screen to folder opening
• Removed tid.bin saving for title launching
• Fixed duplicate cart icon in title menu

@suloku
I'm looking at the XML titles issue and can't figure out what I've actually done differently. I've just committed a change which uses your regionFreeRun2() method but it still doesn't work. I'm testing using the WiFi toggle app and it boots but doesn't actually toggle the WiFi, which I've been told is an issue relating to incorrectly booting the XML title. I can't figure out what I'm doing differently to your launcher. Do you have any ideas?

I think *Hax 2.5 introduced that hardcore mode I was talking about... Lol. But seriously, you churn out a new beta just about every day. That's dedication.

Well, if you've moved on to hax 2.5, my wifi toggle app doesn't work at all, period (on either launcher, nwm::EXT access is completely broken), so that may be why.

Ohhhh... Could somebody point me in the direction of a different XML title I could use for testing? I don't use them so don't really know anything about them.

OMG this is amazing! now the animations and water are really smooth!

I'm glad it's working better for you

I only know of the ironhax installer, the oot3dhax installers (both online and offline), and the save managers, aside from my wifi toggle.

Oh, in that case I think it's working! The save managers seem to work perfectly as they were already using @suloku's RegionFreeRun2() method. I tried to install Ironhax yesterday using gridlauncher and it wouldn't install correctly. This morning I changed title launching to also use RegionFreeRun2() and I've just tested tie Ironhax installer using gridlauncher and it's working now. So I think the XML titles are ok now!

Oh, I forgot HANS. HANS (when you don't use a shortcut to start it) also uses an XML.

Confirmed: I went back to beta 60 and Ironhax installer does not work. On beta 61, which uses @suloku's RegionFreeRun2(), it works perfectly. So I think XML title launching works now.

@suloku also has a solution for that I'll be implementing HANS launching shortly.

I'll give it a try with my wifi toggle app (regardless of the fact that it doesn't work with hax 2.5). If it is booting, then I shouldn't get the missing titles message.

It does boot (though the missing title message seems to flash up on the screen - I need to fix that). The problem is that it doesn't actually toggle.

Shit, IH installer only worked once. I'm testing it again and it fails every time. Looks like the XML title launching isn't fixed after all

Wifi toogle does not work under 2.5, there's no acces to that service for some reason.

 

[daxtsu]

I know, yeah. No problems actually booting the app with beta 61, though.

It seems that although the XML titles boot, they don't work under the gridlauncher. I'm really struggling to work out why that is

It's a feature that's not yet implemented in the grid launcher. You should be work around it by launching HANS and picking the eShop as the title to launch.

You're welcome.

Hm..on my 9.0 N3DS with themehax, I did manage to get beta 61 to boot my offline oot3dhax installer, and it did install the payload successfully.

 

[Drak0rex]

Can someone please link to a pre2.5 version? I'm having a hell of a time finding an older version of HBL from which to install themehax.

What kind of problem are you having? I don't think the homebrew launcher is at fault for anything.

 

[Drak0rex]

So I'm finding out. I'm trying to install themehax, but it keeps failing to download the actual payload.

 

[fiese_nase]

Try offline installer

On the first post.

@mashers, you have my compliments as well. I'm liking the new little page switching animations you added recently. A lot more pleasant than the instant switching (I'm usually a minimalist, but the transition is quick enough that I have no complaints).
