View attachment 108694 I asked a game dev on twitter what the colours are for the dev-kit exclusive black joy cons, they're just the pro controller colours.
I don't know if you wanna add these to custom colours or not but it is technically a stock colour.
Hmm, I expected them to not have color info and look like a grey #555555, but these look darker indeed.

I will consider it. I'll need to create a new color dialog first. The windows default is crap..
I don't know when though..

Any idea if there is a way to change the image of the switch controller cuz it would be cool since I have a dpad mod on my left joycon. Also it would be nice if the program let you type in the color hex colors.

Thank

Is there something like this for mac?
Unfortunately no.
You can use bootcamp or a virtualbox if you want though. (And pass-through the built-in or stick BT adapter).

Nope, as it is out of scope of this app.
About the hex values, I'll probably design a new color dialog if my free time allows it..

When I finished editing my Left Joycon, I accidentally wrote my incomplete work to the Joycon and closed the program. When I try to pair it to my computer, it says 'Paired' but the program is saying that the Joycon isn't paired with my computer. Somebody, please help me.

As stated before, if you connect the joy-con to Switch, you need to fully re-pair it again with PC. Remove it from the devices and add/pair it again.

This is because your PC keeps the pairing info but the Joy-Con, now, has a new pairing info with Switch. Because windows bluetooth manager is crap, you need to remove then pair it again, instead of just re-pairing it again (like linux for example).

Hi, i was trying out the program, and when i finished using it to change the color, it disabled the buttons. the joy stick is fine, but none of the buttons work, i was wondering what I should do to fix it. Thanks!

Can someone please help me? I was able to connect and change my left joycon no problem. However now my right joycon even though connect through Bluetooth says it’s disconnected every time I try to Dump spi or write the color... I can not get it to work.

Update just used a different computer and it worked.

Thanks a ton for this. Really irritated me that the image didn't reflect the custom white shells!

Pity it's not possible to modify the colour of individual buttons but still awesome!

Thanks again!

Anyone knows if this applies to SF30 Pro (8BitDo) as well?
Probably not, I doubt they use the SPI chips or whatever the official controllers use. I'd assume you could check by trying to calibrate the control sticks in system settings and seeing if it lets you, if not it probably means there's no storage chip in it.

I don't think this is true, if it was anyone who used a new joycon colour on old updates would get banned cause their switch would register it as a fake colour.

Nice! Just a question, does this make me lose my warranty on the joycons or is it safe?

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most of the time yea I knew, I watch and read the news regularly, but sometimes the Hollywood BS stuff, like concerning actors slip by me. I don't follow most Hollywood BS (example: the Kardasians)

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa there were relevant issues before south park was made, that's why i think a south park prequel/spinoff would be great. Randy and his friends in their child hood

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, like them running in high school together, getting into stuff, and how they got hitched and had kids. And how the town of South Park was back then compared to now. That would be cool to see.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @salazarcosplay if they made a prequel, it would still be about current issues, cause it doesn't make sense to make it about stuff that happened 30 years ago that nobody cares about anymore
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's too late
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the older south park episodes about particular issues usually age poorly since the topic is no longer relevant
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    an exception is giant douche vs turd sandwich, that's always relevant :P
