ROM Hack [Release] Usagi 3DS Theme Editor (+ .Net Library) - Testers Wanted

[jurassicplayer]

Right now I redevelop the @usagirei software. I integrate the preview on a single line and integrate a bgm manager and a WAV to CWAV converter. The next options are added "little by little".

It's on github, you fork it, make changes, and then make a pull request. It's different from copying the source, making changes, renaming it, and then releasing it.

Yes sorry I am French and I could make a mistake of "word".
I have edited yes, I changed the name because I will add other options that have not been added by @usagirei. I will also change the design and layout.
So if it offends you, I'm sorry. I have edited this software to facilitate the creation of themes and the aesthetic level. @usagirei would not have touched the preview because it says it's bullshit, so I just added the choice of rows and other things that are very useful for creating themes.

These changes are most welcome. And a small note, when the Yata was changed by third parties, they changed the name to Yata Plus. I did not see anyone complaining about the name change.

Hoy, usually the sound frame for the themes is the noise level when you move the cursor,
on the SDK that's it. It allows to adapt the themes that have a FlipBook style.

Make sure your computer is not overloaded in memory and that windows explorer is open. Check also that you just did not see that when the window opens to select your body_lz.bin do not exit the arrow of the software. If the problem persists try with another computer or check your version

Hi, I have a problem creating a theme from scratch, in practice I can create the theme without too much hiccups by following the guidelines (for resolution, audio format, sound track size etc) but when I try to install it on my old 3ds with CHMM installation does not go well in the sense that the theme seems to be installed but when I return home, the default white theme is set.
The strange thing is that in the preview of the program it works perfectly (the images are shown smoothly and the background sound is no problem)

How can I fix it? What can be the problem?

You can convert them into .cia with Howling and then install with FBI.
If you don't have cfw, then... I don't know if there is another way

I felt that while great applications, the current alternatives were a bit lacking in the Preview and User Experience Department.

So, another alternative for Custom Theme Creators, hopefully easing the process of creating them:

Usagi 3DS Theme Editor:

Requires:

• .Net Framework 4.5
• Windows Operating System (WPF doesn't work under Mono! However there are some markup languages which do, you can try to fork and port it)

Features:

• Live (Animated) Preview: supporting all Render Modes and Frame Types for both Screens
• Colored and Textured Application/Folder Icons on the Preview
• Animated Cursor on the Preview
• Image Palette: pick colors from up to 20 colors from the top and bottom images most used colors
• BGM Preview: Preview only, to generate the BGM.BCSTM, you may use the YATA+ Converter or similar alongside this application
• Image Dithering: I hate banding, and i bet will now too: Example
• Available in the following languages
  • English
  • Brazilian Portuguese
  • Spanish - by @dsoldier
  • Italian - by @RayFirefist
  • French - by @Kerouz

---

The Library (ThemeEditor.Common):

Requires:

• .Net Framework 4.5

Built from the Ground Up in a Object Oriented manner, you may use this for your own projects that require Loading/Editing the Theme files, without rewriting the wheel

Special Thanks to YATA, pk3DS and DSDecmp, from where the LZ11 Decompressing and Texture Decoding Algorithms were taken/ported from

@usagirei You are still going to update your theme editor.

@usagirei You are still going to update your theme editor.

Don't have any plans to in the foreseeable future. Did you want something in particular?

 

[Ryumaru]

You could add a function, which allows you to save the colors used in the themes to a separate file. If I want to use the same colors, it would only be necessary to open the file, containing the colors used. You could add an option to save the activated settings. This would greatly facilitate the process of creating the themes.

You could add some alternative previous modes ?
