Setting Custom Icons #40

Open AkiraKusanagi opened 1 year ago

It would be nice if we could set our own skins or icons for the launcher. Say for example instead of a D-Pad icon for the Games category, we could set a Controller icon, something like that. I know you can recolor the icons and stuff, but I want to also change the look (not color-wise) of some of the icons.

Btw, this is something probably really dumb and stuff and a thousand percent not related to this post, and you'd have to have finished the Shortcuts feature... When that feature is done, do you think you can make it so that this app, Screenshot_20230703-111550 can make shortcuts that can be in the Games category? I have found out that this app can make links through PPSSPP and make shortcuts to the game. This is why I was screwing around with shortcuts and reported the possibly really dumb post yesterday. Plus, it would be cool.

  1. I could extract (from the .iso archives) the SND0.blahblahblahs and the ICON0's and... Sorry, you know.
  2. Then put the files in some kind of customizable directories for the shortcuts, and then have quick access to the games, (Instead of going into an emulator...) and music, icons, and backgrounds of the iso would be present in the launcher.

This could work and would... Maybe? Be easier than making this launcher an emulator frontend.

Lol I wrote an entire essay

The system icon, I've been thought about it ever since the beginning, but I forgot to implement the feature up until now even though I already prepared the data I needed 😅. And about the Shortcut Maker, that is a good suggestion!

I'll work with the both features as soon as I have time. and I'll update this issue if there is any progress.

And by the way, you cannot extract the ICONxx and SNDxx from the ISO and put it the file to the CrossLauncher as is, you have to convert them to any format the launcher is able to use, you can use FFMpeg Media Encoder (haven't tested the Android version, but the PC version can do it).

Okay, thanks!
