I get this error when trying to install a theme:
Error: [string""?""]:599: error opening file

What can I do?
Any weird characters in the filename?

Is this the first time using themes? CHMM2 cannot access Savedata. Start Nintendo Themes Manager and let it generate themes files. If the error persists, delete the extdata themes files, start nintendo themes manager so that it will regenerate themes files and then use CHMM2.

Otherwise try a different theme.

Yes, it was my first time using themes. I did what you told me and now it works. Thank you :)

Hi,
I'm trying to create theme by myself using Usagi theme editor.

I found that the theme I made can not be previewed by CHHM2 press Y. It can be installed corrected though.
I do have preview.png in the zip file.

Could anyone tell me what will cause this error?

Cheers,

Hello !
i need some help about something :
I use gridlauncher on my n3ds, everything works perfectly, except chmm2 :
When I save a theme, and then try to exit CHMM2 by pressing start, I just get an endless bottom screen which alternates between red an black.
I checked CHMM2, all the folders are allright, I just don't get it.
Please help !

that's caused because of chmm2 taking too long to read data
Wrong. The theme downloader doesn't work anymore as the site's API changed.

I have the same problem, so I thought you would know ... thanks anyway.
did you try starting Nintendo Themes Manager and letting it generate theme files? I only did that and it worked, I didn't need to do anything with extdata files

I get this error when trying to install a theme:
Error: [string"?"]:152: cannot access extdata archive

I've started the Nintendo Themes Manager to generate theme files, deleted the extdata folder and tried different themes :/

I will try that, I should have noted that I got a lot of themes in the themes folder.

Hi,
I'm using CHHM v2.8 on my 2DS.

I found that if the preview.png is all lower case, the theme can not be previewed.
I have to change to Preview.png.

Is this a bug or intend to set like this?

Cheers,

@Rinnegatamante
