I made a custom fluid boot anim for Vita using SKGleba's vita-bootanim That is worth sharing as it was a very very painful process given the unreliability of the plugin, the big boot.rcf file size and the reduced anim boot performances allowed at boot time :nayps3:

Anyway this is the animation's GIF:

my boot anim in action:

and the compiled file to put in "ur0://tai/" on your vita using the ftp/usb/vitashell app:
[ZIP FILE] boot.rcf and boot anim settings in Vita setting app ( it's a Mega.nz link as it's too big to attach)

SetupAdvices:
  • Install vita-bootanim , set-it up and reboot. (from link or better homebrew browser )
  • use vitashell to ftp/usb connect to your vita
  • Upload the boot.rcf to ur0://tai/ and don't reboot yet.
  • Go to vita settings app -> theme & background -> Boot Animation
  • Set the options as on the screenshots bellow (present with boot.rcf zip file):
  • VitaBootAnimSettings1 (50%).jpeg

  • VitaBootAnimSettings2 (50%).jpeg
  • Now to bypass the bugs and optimize the cache for vita boot anim plugin:
  • Restart and let it crash and retry as many times it needs till it lands you on your main menu.
  • Restart again twice.
You should then have a boot as fast and clean as the video above.

Like I said this plugin is nice but not there yet. Still it's a great effort by SKGleba's and, at least, I was able to setup the boot anim Iwanted before gifting my PSvita to my brother B-)

Cheers :grog:

I found that skipping the animation the initial boot by pressing L at start made it so that the next boots played the animation.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    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.

    @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.

    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.

    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
