Because I'm an advocate for free software and Smash Selector isn't open source, I learned C++ to develop this homebrew. Since this is my first homebrew and first C++ program, this is possibly the buggiest thing on the planet.

Features:
- It switches your modpacks like Smash Selector.
- It reads your desc.txt like Smash Selector.
- For modpack authors: If your modpack contains a settings.csv you can switch around options in your modpack. Refer to main.cpp on how this works. This feature is currently WIP, but it does work and has been tested.

Planned features:
- Online modpack updating, but not how Smash Selector does it.
- Button remapping, I guess?

Bugs:
- Launching smash actually just crashes your 3DS. Or at least, that's what it does on mine.
- It might have a bug when moving around folders (only when using a settings.csv). It's hard to reproduce, so I can't really tell what's going on. Some folders move fine and others don't, it seems to be dependent on the filename.
- This isn't a bug, but main.cpp is a gigantic mess.

The source code:

What's the point in open sourcing?

So people can contribute to it, fix bugs, and add features they want. Projects like freeShop, Citra, Retroarch are open source and are contributed to by the community. I don't expect people to contribute to this launcher in its current state, but because of its open source nature you can inspect the source code to learn how to build your own, or copy the code and create your own version.

Simple explanation: I want a smash mod selector with features that Smash Selector doesn't have. SS isn't open source, so this had to be written from scratch. Next time, some developer can use this because it's open source.

Main reason I want an open source Mod Selector : You can make forwarders on the home menu since all the code is accessible to literally anyone.

    I only drank alcohol once and it was by accident
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    I didnt know it was beer, it was on a juice bottle
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yeah, I'm addicted to smoking, sadly. It's very addictive but I wish I didn't start.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Reason how I found Newgrounds: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/249365
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    https://tcrf.net/Pico_VS_Bear
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds
