First post doesn't really make it clear, does it work on any 9.0.0 3DS straight away without requiring anything special?

Any chance of a linux version or at least releasing the source? =P

How the hell will you install anything on any 9.0.0 3DS straight away without requiring anything special?

I've implemented a theme editor in everyfileexplorer . its in .net so mono should be able to run it.

Hello guys!
This tools allows you to view/edit "body_LZ.bin" files, that contains 3DS theme data.
It has a tiny simulator inside, to have a little preview of your work.
I also implemented some little tools to let you edit the icon and the description of your theme, and also tryed to fix the USA compatibility.
The tools is now updated to the new, more complete, 3dbrew documentation, so it can view more data and some bugs are fixed.
Inside there is a simple model of a Kingdom Hearts theme i tryed to create.

Usage:
File->Open = You can open any body_LZ.bin, compressed or decompressed.
File->Save = Save your new body_LZ.bin
File->Export = This exports the currently viewed picture in BMP format, you choose the path
File->Import = This lets you import any image in BMP format and replace it to the currently viewed one
Sound->Import/Export CWAV = Not supported yet :/
Background Music = Check/uncheck this if you want/don't want bgm in your theme
Simulator = Gives you a little preview of the theme

Just edit all the data you want and open the batch script of your region. For now just EUR and USA are supported.

Requirements:
Microsoft .NET Framework v4.0
It can hang if it stays in folders with spaces in their name, so be sure to not have spaces in the tool's path.

Issues:
The current CIA generated is known to not be installed in GW emunand, of any version. I'm currently trying to understand how to avoid this. My theory is that GW implements some checks, since i didn't patch anything strange in my CFW, and i can run this withouth problems. So for this is just useful to edit and create, not to play. Hoping to solve this soon.
Also, this should replace the "Completely Mario" theme.

[v1.1] Download here!

Have fun!

Please post a video this sounds really awesome the idea of custom themes is really exciting my only question is can Nintendo block this ?

Why do you need a video? You use the software to replace the images in body_LZ.bin and repack the theme like you do with a rom. Super simple.

Also it doesn't work on Gateway right now.

well it will only work on hacked console's so no they couldn't really do anything about it, and it currently only works on the CFW of a select few

Who said anything about using it with Gateway cause I know I didn't

 

[x3braindmg]

Did you figure out how to get body_LZ.bin? I'm searching but can't find anything.

Nope. I don't even know how to dump themes..............

Then you have nothing to do here, because the only other way to install them is by using a 9.0 CFW, and only a few guys have it and keep it private.

Stop planning, as it will not be possible for a while It might be once someone finds an 9.x kernel exploit but I very seriously doubt it someone will find one soon.

Why do you think I ask?

"Oh no! Somebody isn't as knowledgeable as I am! The only sensible thing to do is act like a condescending prick!"

Stay classy, GBAtemp.

Wtf are you on about?. They asked for the source of a editor and that's what they got. If anyone comes off like a prick it would be you.
But ye. Keep being a dick to people documenting the formats and you will soon have no tools.
