Homebrew [WIP] ButtonSwap3DS - Remap buttons on your 3DS

[MaplEnd]

need L -> Right D-Pad only thx

 

[AmberLoss]

Here you go! Pressing L presses the right D-Pad, but tell me if you wanted it the other way around!

 

[Morning_Coffee]

Sorry for the wait, my computer was acting up but now it fixed itself somehow! Seriously, I have no idea why it's working now.

@Morning_Coffee Suuuper sorry for the wait! A Y->Select means there's no button to press "Y" anymore, is that ok? I've made the build but if you want to have a Y<>Select just ask again, I promise it won't take so long this time!

@raspberrypie Congrats, you're the second person I know of who'll use ButtonSwap to disable a button! Please come back if anything goes wrong (but I doubt it will)

@Demnyx The problem with those two files is that their icons and banners are identical, so it'll be hard to tell them apart. But changing the icon etc is no problem at all for me, so if you want them changed, just give me the images (256x128 banners, 48x48 icons) and I can do it in less than a minute.

Thanks for the help! Really appreciate this, and no need to apologize, I didn't mind the wait c:

thank you so much

Could I please get Select -> R, and R -> nothing? Thanks!

 

[AmberLoss]

@ineed3dshacks Here you go!

 

[MarkPrime24]

can anyone please give me codes for swapping L button with UP Key...Thanks in advance

 

[AmberLoss]

@MarkPrime24 If you wanted the .cias, they're in the .zip!

If you actually want the codes, they go on injected.s under the part for buttons:

ldr r4, =0x200
ldr r5, =0x40
bl .button

ldr r4, =0x40
ldr r5, =0x200
bl .button

The first one makes the L button act as the UP key, and the second one makes the UP key act as the L button. The values come from ButtonSwap3DSHelper.jar, L is 0x200 and UP is 0x40.

Thank You Very Much,just a little more help can you give codes for swapping L with R..

 

[AmberLoss]

@MarkPrime24 Sure! The files are here, and as for the codes, R is 0x100, so:

ldr r4, =0x200
ldr r5, =0x100
bl .button

ldr r4, =0x100
ldr r5, =0x200
bl .button

Is it possible to disable the circle pad and map the d-pad to the circle pad? If so could I get a program that does this?

Sorry, currently there's no way to disable the circle pad!

 

[Demnyx]

Hi i'm back for another request(Hope you're still there AmberLoss)
I want a file that does everything mentioned in my 1st request(page 14) and adds :
X becomes B+Cpad Down
Y becomes Cpad Up+A
Thanks

 

[MikeAtom]

Please give me L = R + B and L = R + select!

 

[AmberLoss]

@Demnyx, unfortunately I've run into a bug and there's no one left to fix it. Apparently if a key is used to emulate the C-Pad (like X > C-Down), it can't be used in any other combos (like L + X) without activating the C-Pad. So your "L + X > D-Up | X > B + C-Down" becomes "L + X > D-Up + B + C-Down | X > B + C-Down". I'm really sorry! I don't even have any idea why it's happening, it doesn't make sense that the B key is also being pressed at the same time.

If a future developer ever is interested in fixing this bug, here are a few more details:

Spoiler

The (snipped) code for this specific request is:

ldr r4, =0x600
ldr r5, =0x40
bl .button

ldr r4, =0x400
ldr r5, =0x2
bl .button

ldr r4, =0x400
ldr r6, =0x800001
bl .cpad

(the 1 was there to make sure the issue wasn't being caused by another mapping that was also pressing 0x800000)

As described above, this made it so pressing L + X would press D-Up, C-Down, and B at the same time.

To make sure the issue wasn't being caused by using the same keys in two different mappings (button and cpad), I tested the following code:

ldr r4, =0x600
ldr r5, =0x40
bl .button

ldr r4, =0x400
ldr r6, =0x800001
bl .cpad

Pressing L + X would press C-Down and D-Up, when it was only supposed to press D-Up.

The issue would be obvious if the only thing being carried over was the C-Pad mask, but the B button above was also carried over, so I have no idea what's wrong.

I would have tested it further, but honestly it's a pain and I have no idea if anyone is ever going to try to fix it anyway. I can do more tests by request.

@MikeAtom, I hope this is what you wanted: pressing R + B presses L, and pressing R + Select also presses L. If I got it wrong, just say the word and I'll remake it!

Ah okay no problem
Then i would like it like this :
*Dpad becomes Cpad
*Y becomes Cpad Up + A
*X becomes B+Cpad Down
*L+A becomes Dpad left
I hope this one is ok
Thanks for your help

 

[AmberLoss]

@Demnyx No problem, here it is! It's the first time someone maps both a button and the C-Pad to the same trigger, so please tell me if you run into any issues!

 

[TsukiyoX]

Does this work with VC or DS games?
No idea. If you could test it and tell me, that'd be a great help!

I'm not sure how many times this's been talked about, but I would like to use the Y button as the Select button (Y > Select) like in NES VC games. The reason is basically Metroid Zero Mission (GBA VC) to switch to Super Missiles and back.

Literally from the OG GBA to the O3DS XL, the Select button was on the left side, making Super Missle selection easier. I have a N3DS XL and I have to put both my hands on the right side just to use 4 Missiles and a Super Missile in quick succession against Mother Brain for speedrunning purposes because Nintendo put the Start and Select on the right side :/.

Is there absolutely any way this could work on 3DS VC? I would appreciate this.

 

[AmberLoss]

@TsukiyoX I have no idea if it works or not, but please report back once you test it! Sadly if it doesn't work there's no way for me to fix it.

 

[Feffe]

It works with VC games (NES, GB, SNES etc.), it doesn't work with GBA and DS/i games since they reboot the console on a different mode
