hey! i'm very late i know but i'm having issues with the program itself, i've tried to select the "Brlyt path" but upon selecting the folder with the .brlyt stuff inside, it just dosen't open it, and i've tried to run the app in compatibity mode with Windows 7 as well as setting up python in my computer but just keeps throwing the same error

the error itself is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 587, in onDir
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xc1' in position 9: ordinal not in range(128)View attachment 405358
you have a non ascii character in the path that the program does not like
i think it is Á
if you move the ThemeCreatorPack folder out of that path it will work
try c:/ThemeCreatorPack/

the letter was replaced with a blank image in the base pack as most people replace the button with an image when making a theme they dont want an envelope on top of it

you can comment out the 5 lines for simg2007 in the mym.ini or just delete them and the envelope will be back

sorry no idea
the sounds in the wii menu are all in one file and we never had a editor that it would work with
we tried many times to change the sounds :(
There's a tutorial, it works, but one is being stubborn!

at the time when we were making themes there was no tools for it remember this was over 10 years ago

only way to revert the color changes is by replacing the brlyt file in the brlyt folder with a stock version from the base pack

if you know which file contains the change you want to revert then yes you can just replace that one file
otherwise you have to replace them all

if you tell me what it is you want to revert i can tell you the file
Just the home button, when you hold the blue button ya know?

im using the thememii mod btw and i modified the app file for a reasonView attachment 431714
that's odd there is no reason i can think of that it would not be able to find that file
rv_cntrl_back_b.tpl is the white image of a wiimote on the home button menu
without looking at the mym I cant help if you would like to send me a copy you can pm it me and i will see if i can get it working for you

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
