| ==Badge requirements==
| |
| * Custom badges must be <code>.png</code>(s) whose dimensions are divisible by 64 pixels
| |
| * [https://themeplaza.art/badges Theme Plaza] has a large collection of such badge images
| |
| ** If you get custom badges from Theme Plaza, look for and delete <code>preview.png</code>
| |
| * The custom badge's name is set to whatever the filename of the badge is
| |
| * Images larger than 64x64 will be split into separate badges (eg. 128x128 will be split into four badges)
| |
| ** Badges split in this way will share the same name or app shortcut
| |
| * The most badges you can install at a time is 1,000. If you attempt to install more than 1,000 badges, GYTB will crash.
| |
| | |
| ===Shortcuts===
| |
| Custom badges can be made into shortcuts to launch system applications; a list of compatible titles can be found [[3dbrew:Title_list#00040010_-_System_Applications|here]]. To create a badge shortcut, rename the badge so the TIDLow of the system app is between the first and second period of the file name, like so: <code>BadgeName.<TIDLow>.png</code>. For example, a file named <code>settings.00021000.png</code> would create a badge named settings that launches USA System Settings (mset). Badges made into shortcuts will display the banner of the application they launch, rather than being a pin; applications without a banner will display a default banner instead.

| ===Section II - Installing Badges===
| |
| # Power on your console and open the '''Homebrew Launcher'''
| |
| #* If you already have a '''Homebrew Launcher''' icon on the HOME Menu, use that
| |
| #* If you do not have this icon, do the following set of steps:
| |
| #*# Open '''Download Play'''
| |
| #*# Open [[3DS:Luma3DS/Rosalina|Rosalina]] (the most common keycombos for the menu are {{Key press|L|Down|SELECT}} and {{Key press|X|Y}}
| |
| #*# Go into '''Miscellaneous options''', then select '''Switch the hb. title to the current app'''
| |
| #*# Press {{B|B}} until you exit Rosalina, then close '''Download Play''' and reopen it - at this point, the Homebrew Launcher should appear
| |
| # Launch '''GYTB''' from the list of homebrew
| |
| #* You should see your badges flash on the screen, and be sent back to the HOME Menu afterward
| |

| |
| | |
| ===Section III - Decorate with Badges===
| |
| | |
| # Tap on HOME Menu Settings in the top left of the HOME Menu
| |
| # Tap on the new button titled "'''Decorate with Badges'''"
| |
| # Drag your custom badges from the top of the screen onto your HOME Menu
| |
| #* To attach badges to folders, tap on the top right wrench icon and select "'''Attach Badge to Folder'''"
| |
| # Tap on the <code>X</code> or press the {{B|HOME}},{{B|B}}, or {{B|X}} buttons to exit the badge menu
| |
| | |
| == Troubleshooting ==
| |
|
| |
|
| If '''GYTB''' causes an [[3DS:EXCEPTION|exception]] when you open it, it is usually one of two reasons:
| | === Section II - Launching GYTB === |
| # There is an image whose dimensions can't be divided by 64 in the <code>badges</code> folder
| |
| #* <code>preview.png</code> is a common instance of this, especially when downloading from Theme Plaza. Check for this file and delete it.
| |
| # There are more than 1000 images inside the <code>badges</code> folder
| |
| #* The 3DS can only have 1000 badges installed. This is a hard limit that cannot be bypassed; remove images until you are under the limit again.
| |
|
| |
|
| If '''GYTB''' gives the error "'''WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE ELF.'''", it is for one of two reasons:
| | #Open the Homebrew Launcher using any method |
| # If the error appears after saying "'''Writing to extdata...'''", your badges folder is either not present, misplaced, or misnamed.
| | #Launch GYTB from the list of homebrew |
| # If the error appears after saying "'''Checking for preexisting Badge Arcade badges to dump...'''", then your pre-existing badges were unable to be dumped.
| | *If followed properly, you should see your badges flash on the screen, and be sent back to the home menu. |
