Anyone know where I can find an icon for PC Engine, Gameboy (Mono), and Sega Game Gear?

If anyone wants to fix the .3dsx version to work with the latest firm, just do the following simple changes:

Hex edit the 3dsx file - 0x407F0: 75 -> 61

And change the .xml file to the following:
<targets selectable="false">
<title mediatype="0">0004001000021000</title>
<title mediatype="0">0004001000022000</title>
<title mediatype="0">0004001000020000</title>
<title mediatype="0">0004001000027000</title>
<title mediatype="0">0004001000026000</title>
<title mediatype="0">0004001000028000</title>
</targets>

A summery of what's happening here. This is changing the requested service from act:u to act:a which also has support for ACTU_GetAccountDataBlock, which is needed by this program. Act:a is conveniently included in System Settings and that is the app called in the above XML in various regions. This gets GYTB past the hurdle of taking over Badge Arcade or needing cfw to get the necessary service permissions. Hope this helps some of you elf monsters out. :)

edit: i guess i have some sympathy for the non-dyi crowd. attached.

Hi, I was wondering if I could get help. I've tried running it but I just get an error message. If it helps, I'm on a n3ds xl running a9lh on 11.2. I also have Nintendo Badge Arcade, which I re-downloaded as well as some badges from it.

EDIT: I tried running it from HB and it worked. Weird how it won't work as a CIA but oh well I guess.

Hello, I am having the same problem, i tried running it in homebrew but it says: "Badge file in use, try loading all badges in your badge case and waiting before launching." but there are no badges in use, i can't figure how to get this working, if anyone does any help is apreciated.

It says "badge file" in use, not "badge". I had the same problem just a while ago. Go back to your home menu and browse through all the badges you've acquired so far. In other words, wait until all of them are loaded, just like the error message says.

Do the files need to have the same height and length? some of my custom badges wont work until I edit them to have the same measurements.
Also, running the cia to install new badges messes up the custom badges until you remove them all and place them again.
I have CFW

edit: it looks like the measurements need to be 64xn, they dont need to be the same(a square). Kind of obvious looking back on it :P. Badges still get scrambled and mixed when adding new ones tho

Is there any way to remove official Nintendo badges (from Badge Arcade) from my badge menu? I only want to see my custom badges.

What tool can I use?
Well, at the moment, I honestly don't think there exists a tool that does that. I have been working on a tool called "Advanced Badge Editor" which allows anyone to make their own badges and sets very easily, however, when it comes to deleting every badge or specific badges, I still need to add that feature. Sorry

EDIT: My tool now lets anyone delete badges! You can use that instead. You can find a link to it on my signature if you read carefully :P

Is there a guide to this? Yeah, really simple, but I'm really, REALLY dumb on this. Do we place it in the root of the SD or the "3ds" folder. (Legit question lol)


Edit: Oh, my computer can't handle it. :^(

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Toxic pills are best
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Veho, He fucked around and found out.
