thanks for the quick reply

sorry but after reading a bit more i have a few more questions

i just googled libfat and libslim, but how would i switch between them?
You don't. The switch would be done on our side, and would be included in a later release, if it goes well.
also i just downloaded and installed the cia from the latest release but nothing came up on the menu, do i need the first one too?
What do you mean "first one"? "3DSBank.cia" is the only one you need.
Try rebooting the console to make it appear in the 3DS HOME Menu.
and lastly if i already have games installed on my original nintendo 3ds folder and dont need to move them, i should be fine to just make more and put different ones on the new ones without any problems right?

thanks
Yes.

Hi, just moved and increased the library thanks and on this tool.
In its semplicity it's pretty powerfull and well working , but the restrictions from the nand in the homescreens managing are really annoing. Two in particular:
1 folders can't be used in sigle home-copy cause they apper always shared between homescreens
2 and the same with dsiware shortcuts that cannot be organized cause they appears in all homescreens and in the same positions

Have someone any suggestion or solution to avoid these problems?

In particoular to manage the dsiware.
For what I read around it seams impossible to install or forward them -aviable- from the nand to sd,
but could be at least a way to hide the "shortcuts" from an homescreens or other?

For point 2 you could use YANBF, it makes 3DS app forwarders so they're on your SD

I'm already using it to forward DS roms, but it seams not working with DsiWare.nds. Red cross in gui when trying. For them could it work with different steps than normal roms?

Ah, you need to manually provide a banner image – since DSiWare have no boxart
Probably missed in the thread... Thank you very much for the tip. Now to learn also how to make banners, but good to know it could work! Since we are talking about banners... I just understood I can edit banners' text on .nds with crystaltile2 to have them changed after cia conversion (even if this always brakes the dsiware.nds 🤷🏽). But... can't I modify banners' text more easily and perhaps directly on the cia? For instance on the 3DSbank banner too

NDS Banner Editor is the best program (currently) for editing DS banners, though it requires the raw banner not the whole ROM. I think MessAnimDSIco can edit banners without needing to repack the ROM.

Ok, what about installing a game that I own on my first home menu, and then install it again on my second home menu?
Should also work fine.
How would I install FBI, Checkpoint, Anemone, Homebrew Launcher, and Universal Updater on a separate home menu?
You need to first launch a title, then open Rosalina menu to switch the current title to hb, exit Rosalina menu, then re-launch the title.

    @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
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    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.
  • 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

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.
  • a_username_that_is_cool @ a_username_that_is_cool:
    FNF was born from Game Jams
