Here's the Zelda Wind Waker theme ive been working on

how do you have no apps or profile pic or no apps in the plaza?

 

[Old-Skool]

How were you able to get those different system pics as icons?

Hello all! given that themes are technically copyrighted material it goes against the wiki.hacks.guide policy thus preventing us from having a proper theme guide for wiiu. however by generating IPS patches for these themes it is completely legal, so i am working on generating all the themes into IPS patches to be linked. of course all work will be credited and i haven’t figured out where i will be hosting these files (perhaps just another thread) but ill update as this progresses. if you wish to not have your theme included please just message me. edit: heres where the files are https://gbatemp.net/threads/share-and-download-wiiu-themes-ips-patches-only.642214/#post-10279713

Loved your Theme, is like a Gamecube.

Thank you guys for the effort.

Hey so I made a Pretendo Network inspired theme and I'm pretty close to being done with it, I don't have much more I need to do and tbh it might even be done now I'm not sure. Because it's in such a close to being finished state I thought I might as well post it now. So here you go

Note: Not only is the menu itself region specific but the actual text is language specific per region. This means the conditions to get the language replacement that I included would require you to have a US Console that's language is set to US English. To port to other regions shouldn't be a hard process and same with porting to specific languages but for the moment it's only for what I mentioned above.

hey this theme works on Brazilian portuguesse?

aaaa

Does anyone know how to make a theme with the Animal Crossing Plaza assets? That'd be cool!

I definitely would like to see 3D models like trees on the wara plaza floor, that should be feasible based on what we've been seeing in recent theme research and releases. I'm sure the Miis would be running through whatever 3D object we might be add, but it still would be cool to see

i think an early version of the mario galaxy theme had the observatory there

UPDATE:
I've been trying to get some of the assets into a plaza theme, but I don't think I'm smart enough for that stuff.

I have supplied an image of the plaza on Blender, one from Switch Toolbox, and finally using Cemu.

If anyone has any ideas what to do, then please tell me. I'm really confused currently.

Helloooo!

I wanted to expand the Wii U custom theme scene just like in the 3ds community so i made a setup that makes it easier to edit your Wii U background theme!

I called it "minimalist setup" I feel like this setup will make it easier for people to customize their Wii U theme and create new ones to share with the community

If anyone is interested feel free to join in the link below, there's where im saving all the information about it with a quick tutorial on how to use it and more much themes!

MORE THEMES HERE

The software I used to make these themes is called SWITCH TOOLBOX click the link below for more info on how to download it.

SWITCH TOOLBOX

Here are a couple samples:

Splatoon Theme #2

Undertale Theme

Totoro Theme

Well, I think I'm done with my Mario Galaxy theme for now.

Download

I'll update it when I or someone finds a way to edit music and do proper custom animation.
And here are some preview screenshots:

Hi, so what i have seen while playing around with making themes

1. The model you are importing into switch toolbox must have each one of its textures separated

2. When deleting the default floor it crashes, you can Just rotate it so its invisible

3. The names of each part matters, for example if the model is inside floaticons00 there is a possibility (atleast with me) that if it doesnt have the name of the "floating icons" the textures corrupt

Here is an example of one of my experiments while making themes

On this example the model is inside the loungefloor folder as a new model

The Future of Wii U themes is coming!

Has anyone tried making a lightweight theme so (maybe) the menu loads faster? Like deleting most of the 3D stuff and keeping just the gamepad icons? Is it even possible?

 

[Bloobtoob]

how do i restore my permanent theme

 

[Keefe29]

Hey does anyone know of a good tutorial out there for this? Like specifically for replacing the model for Wara Wara Plaza. I've seen some incredible themes such as Randos Mario Galaxy theme taking advantage of this. I've tried putting my own models in to face nothing but crashes. Does anybody know what I am doing wrong? Or, could someone just quickly show me how their setup looks in Switch Tool Box? That would be amazing! I'm also curious if anyone has found a way yet to change the home music. It would be kinda cool if we could do all the stuff that can be done with 3ds themes.

1. It may be crashing cause deleting the default floor causes this, try rotating it 180°, it will make it invisible so the miis can be placed (or you can name your model the same as the default floor so it detects it when loading)

2. Not yet, maybe someone some where found a way to add custom music but not me nor anyone i know sadly
