I have some theme's on my sd card but if I open one of the themes in 3ds theme editor comes the theme that i currently have on my 3ds and not the theme that it must be. If I open it on the 3ds with CHHM is it the good one. What can I do to have the good theme in 3ds theme editor?

Sorry for my bad english

EDIT: Works good with YATA!

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!
Can you post the source code on Github?

Hello, I installed a theme using this tool on my n3ds 9.5 emunand but it froze and now I can't access to my emunand . It freezes right after i launch into emunand. how can i fix this? It worked ok with other themes.

Edit : I fixed the problem following these steps.

Search for "Nintendo 3DS\<ID0>\<ID1>\extdata\00000000\000002ce" on your SD card
(last one can be 000002cd or 000002cc, depending on your region). Just delete that extdata folder (only 000002ce, not the whole extdata) to clear themes cache.

I think you have to restore the original files (that you should have made a backup of). I'm pretty sure there was also another way, but I can't remember.

I tried using this tool with the european shovel knight launch theme.
It would be really cool if people could make themes that work like this one, but this program doesn't seem to be compatible with it. Any hope for one to ever be?

Hey,
I am encountering a problem where the Theme Editor crashes when I try to open the body_LZ.bin file provided to make my own custom theme. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I get "3DS_ThemeEditor.exe has stopped working!" every time I try to open a file. I've tried opening the program as administrator and changing comparability.

    some of the best selling games on the switch are wii u ports (that are priced way too high
    like come on 60 for a game thats a decade old??)

    @ColdBlitz, i forgot breath of the wild released for the Wii u

    $60 for a game that's a decade old might be unheard of on PC but actually is not uncommon on consoles

    especially Nintendo because they only ever lower the price of games when they do a greatest hits/platinum hits/players choice re-release
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and the HD collections released for 7th gen consoles too
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but they don't seem to have done any of those for the switch yet and maybe never will
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    I think we all forgot breath of the wild released for the wii u tbh

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, tbh the HD collections are more justified since they include more than just 1 game per copy
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ I read that non-binary people identify as a blend of male and female. The point is i think i'm a blend of those and thus non binary
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Non-binary people are those who don't identify themselves exclusively as male or female.

    I don't identify as anything, unless I need to get on a plane then I show ID
