Homebrew Themelimit

[Kloklopfer]

If this fits better in the romhacking or cfw subforum then pls move it there

So with the new update of freeshop its possible to download all homemenu themes (like 450 different themes). But now theres a problem. Whenever I try to change a theme I get a prompt were it says that I need to delete 350 themes to use them. Is there a way to circumvent this with godmode9 or do I have to delete 350 themes one by one

There's a limit of 100 themes, yep

There are multiple cias for technical reasons (each one can hold at most 100 themes), it's just that you can't get individual DLC contents with titlekey tools (yet)...
Removing individual contents manually is bad for the same reason on Windows you're not supposed to remove a program by just deleting its files, but you can uninstall those cias to remove all of them, then use a smarter way to pirate themes (you can find them somewhere in chmm format, which you can assemble into a cia with only what you want)

There is a limit of 100 themes and 10 themes in theme shuffle unfortunately

Delete them all in freeShop, then restart the DLC install and cancel it before it downloads everything. Then you can visit the theme shop and look at the list of all themes you have. Then just choose which ones you want to download.

I'm not sure if this works for people who previously purchased a theme already. But I know if works if you have never purchased one.

It doesn't work like that. Freeshop downloads the dlc, then installs them. Cancelling the download simply stops it and deletes the stuff it downloaded.

I know, but the installed ticket remains and you download the content from the shop. I did it earlier today.

Oh. Even then. The method is very insufficient since what if the theme you want is at the very end of the download. You literally have a few milliseconds while it's downloading before it installs.

No, the ticket and import in the beginning enables them all, there aren't tickets for every theme, just one. Some other person says it's giving them an error when they try to download it though, but it's worked fine for me. So not sure about all the details, but I can choose to download any theme in the shop.

In my case the Installation got through without a problem. Ive tried to delete the dlc wipe the unused tickets and redownladed the tickets. Now everything works fine since all themes are marked as "purchased" and I simply need to download the themes that I want one by one (better then deleting 350 themes)

I haven't looked into that yet but ill use it if I need more themes later on. For now the downloading of them via themeshop is good enough. Thanks anyway
