    [Tutorial] Extract, Edit & Rebuild CIAs made simple 2023.

    In this tutorial I will explain how to extract & rebuild CIAs After spending an unhealthy amount of days reading information on this forum, I realised no-one talks about using NSUI to extract, edit and rebuild CIAs. So, I'm here to give a brief overview of how it is done because it's fairly...

    Homebrew [NDS] Yet Another nds-bootstrap Forwarder: more than 40 forwarders are now possible

    I had tunnel vision and looked into editing the title ID and didn't think to re-generate them. But it made sense because the new forwarders were giving me problems, thanks for this. 1679491989 Replying to myself in case anyone else stumbles across the same issue and doesn't want to remake all...

    YANBF custom banner (and sound) requests

    There are a few ways, the quickest is seeing if the sound is on YouTube or somewhere similar or you can extract the sound from the game itself which is more time-consuming.

    Homebrew [NDS] Yet Another nds-bootstrap Forwarder: more than 40 forwarders are now possible

    I'm having the same problem what i've noticed is the forwarders are overwriting existing ones so they are on the home screen at least for me at least. Which is why if Pokemon Diamond replaced FF3, if I delete Pokemon, FF3 goes off the homescreen. I'm currently trying to find a work around...

    Homebrew [DISCUSSION] New Super Ultimate Injector (NSUI)

    Follow this post here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/discussion-new-super-ultimate-injector-nsui.500376/post-9402688 I didn't do this myself and chose to source out images manually to edit them later.

    Homebrew [DISCUSSION] New Super Ultimate Injector (NSUI)

    Anyone know why my footer is grayscaled? I didn't anticipate this being an issue I'd run into. At least I found out sooner rather than later.

    Homebrew [DISCUSSION] New Super Ultimate Injector (NSUI)

    You know I was never going to click the banner and find that little secret out. My brain was like maybe I need to hex edit the uip file because there's hex codes and it might do something and I need to verify it doesn't work before I dismiss it. Which is funny because I haven't done any hex...

    Homebrew [DISCUSSION] New Super Ultimate Injector (NSUI)

    So I've spent a couple hours yesterday and today reading on this forum looking for information and/or answers but to no avail. I think it's a combination of not knowing enough and using the wrong search terms. Ignoring the fact this port/demake (Steins;Gate) doesn't run, because it is not an...

    Homebrew [DISCUSSION] New Super Ultimate Injector (NSUI)

    I'm using NSUI beta 28 which has the option to customise the banner sound, I saw you said you also are using the same version. See the screenshot below, I've noticed in beta 27 this option is removed. Have you checked the version you are using? Silly question I know but this isn't my area of...

    YANBF custom banner (and sound) requests

    This hopefully will be my last major update, but I got everything to work and tested them on my 3ds. The sheer scale of this project meant that finalising and checking everything worked as intended took a significant amount of time. Thanks for the advice above @godreborn and @lone_wolf323...

    YANBF custom banner (and sound) requests

    Working on such a large scale has its drawbacks, I was using YANBF GUI yesterday and when I removed one game, and it undid half the files for 90 games. And I wasn't prepared to try again, and it be the last things I did before I slept. And today, I got an error when generating the cia...

    YANBF custom banner (and sound) requests

    Been a while since I posted here, just wanted to give a quick update about my progress. I was sure that I was 99% done and shifted my focus into custom NSUI banners and home screen icons for approximately 150 games. The reason being for this was I am planning to start and finish my 2ds hack in...

    YANBF custom banner (and sound) requests

    So, I'm like 99% done with banners, I know at some point I'll make one more but that's because I need an even number of games to complete my planned layout on my home screen. I dropped one game so yeah: 99% done technically speaking. I went back and edited banners with black shadows replacing...

    YANBF custom banner (and sound) requests

    I'm like 90% done, I've updated my spreadsheet here. I'll share what I have tomorrow and export the banners against black and white backgrounds to check visibility. When I started I was like black shadows look good and they do but only against a light theme. I can share my Spectrobes edit...

    YANBF custom banner (and sound) requests

    I've got a PSD file set up now with all the logos and for the most part have cropped them all to size and removed backgrounds. I'm quite happy with the extra depth gained from shadows, bevelling but the outer glow on the Avatar banner could be revised. I plan and work in bulk so this time next...

    YANBF custom banner (and sound) requests

    So, I finished gathering game logos for forwarders and compiled a list merging the current assets on GitHub + the games I am making forwards for and placed them in a spreadsheet here. I added the GitHub asset reference so it's easier to navigate and find what you want i.e., CPU is for Pokémon...

    I am home

    And just like that I have reached the 5-messages landmark milestone. Today is a good day and thanks everyone for welcoming me. I was about sceptical about posting an introduction because it's so hard to do a good one.

    Greetings all!

    Welcome to the temp, it's funny you mention game modding here, I jest. On one hand I must admit, I'm trying to get to hit that 5-message landmark milestone so I can post links. I want to meaningfully contribute to certain threads of seen but I can't. On the other hand, I will also contribute...

    I am home

    I can't lie being active in a forum again feels weird to me. I also have a habit of typing a lot and explaining things in unnecessary detail but that's always how I've been. I've lurked anonymously for a number of years but signed up conveniently when the giveaway was happening because...yes...

    YANBF custom banner (and sound) requests

    Seeing this thread has made me consider the possibility of logo PNGs. My initial goal with banner art was to make custom ones, I picture the Pokémon Whites logo text on the left with Zekrom on the right. If I do choose custom banners, I see myself making a template PSD file so there's...

    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?

    Ah it's all animated I was hoping for some live action
