Is there some sort of wait command?
Like the one in lpp-vita?

If not, would you help me figure out how to make a wait function?

Just use a timer and a while loop.

You can use a Timer to temporary block your thread. (Remember to purge the Timer object and take in mind that Timer uses milliseconds, System.wait in lpp-vita uses microseconds).

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

This, for example, is a System.wait implementation for lpp-3ds:

function System.wait(milliseconds)
   tmp = Timer.new()
   while Timer.getTime(tmp) < milliseconds do end
   Timer.destroy(tmp)
end

Doesn't this cause a useless loop (wasting battery)? What if I wanted a thread to wait like 10 minutes?

Yeah but svcWaitThread is not really safe to use cause it doesn't work as it should sometimes.

Yes! Thank you for this update! I will make some tests. Nice work! Keep it up!

How do I distribute a homebrew as .cia? Should I compile the source with index.lua on its folder? I have no kernel hax so I can't even experiment myself.

You can compile the elf provided in the R3 build with your own banner and icon (but it will use index.lua from root of SD card so it's not very good) or you can compile from sources your own build which loads a custom script by editing main.cpp( https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/lpp-3ds/blob/master/source/main.cpp#L85-L88 )

Oh, I see. Is there some sort of convention on how to name/where to put the script, or should I do whatever I want?

You can do whatever you want (Sunshell uses "/sun_index.lua", CHMM uses an integrated index.lua, TriaAl will use "/script/index.lua" and so on)

Put index.lua in the same directory as the 3dsx

 

[kje123]

Now I can play Dark Souls on my 3DS. Kappa

[dannyboy941]

The draw rotated image on the GPU, the documentation says radius, but no angle input? How could a radius be helpful? With no angle to base rotation on.

0, 0 is the angle used for rotation. I'll probably add another function to rotate an image using the center as rotation angle.

Radius is the distance from the outside of a circle to the inside.

You right, it's meant to be radian. I'll correct documentation right now.

void Sound.play(wav_id wav_file, int loop, u32 channel, [u32 channel2])
Sorry to be a noob, but where can I find the u32 channel of my wav file?

You can use whatever channel you want expect for dsp reserved ones (from 0x00 to 0x07).
All current homebrews use 0x08 and 0x09 channels for audio.
