Thank you so much! ❤ This is the first customization to my Switch I've ever made, your tutorial is very clear and easy to follow. I've wanted to change the titles and thumbnails for a few months, but thought I might not be able to manage that as this is my first Switch and I still mess up some of the terms, so most articles are hard for me to follow. Then I found your video and got it done in just 10 minutes : ) Thanks again for sharing! 😊
For everyone who had problems with the gray question mark icon, you have to download an image with the highest resolution possible, and resize it to 256x256, here it worked like this. Also change the name to icon.jpg, I hope it helps, my 18.0 firmware works fine.
You can also use the website photopea.com this website you don't have to change resolution it just works after you make the template 256x256. Any image will work .
you helped me with linux and now you helped me with my questionmark annoying icon @ duckstation, somehow after nsp was installed it has no icon ty so much man respect
Use this site on a web browser it's called photopea it's like photoshop. You can use the default settings you don't have to mess with the quality. But make the template 256x256 and save it works 💯 of the time for me
This video is so good! Very well explained and easy to follow just one question when the time comes to update my custom firmware do i have to undo everything or it shouldn’t make any difference so i can safely update
Hey bro, I have a doubt. Can you configure different horizontal and vertical icons? When I use a vertical theme, the boxes that remain square (like in the groups or options section) are distorted because the resolution is different
You should be able to add your image that is the size of the vertical I don't no off the top of My head . But if you do know then when you find an image size it to the specs of vertical themes
Thank you, i have a problem though, iam in 17.0.0 and when i do this the icon shows as a grey question mark, maybe its because im using vertical icons (?) and not putting the right size. Also im using .jpg images, and extract the folder with 7z, dont know what to do
Hmm well it could be the vertical layout your trying. I haven't tries vertical but I think you need a theme that makes them vertical. I could be wrong I need to try it . The Grey ? Is good means it's working . Alot of times it's the quality of image.jpg. I haven't found a way to make sure it's always working. I'll look into it . And will most likely post and update if I have success. With both vertical and non vertical .
I may need to update this for the latest firmware . Let me try it . (Also) sometimes the picture is Grey because the either the format is bad or the picture is too big. Or the picture is not good quality. The picture has to be very specific to make it work. I'll try it on mine and see if I can help better that way.
I'm sorry . I'm a little confused. 15.0.0 and 16.0.0 are both switch firmwares and one doesn't make the other work. It's just lower firmware and higher firmware.
I am on 16.0.3 and I did all the steps and ended up getting a grey icon with a white question mark. I saw that on other comments you said that the issue could be that the image was low quality or wasn't the right size. I don't know if my image is of low quality but the size is 512 by 512. Is that the problem or could it be something else?
@@eradicatinglove Hey bro, is everything alright? Why has it been bad for you? PM if if it’s easier. Take care of yourself bro - God is looking over you - please reach out if you need anything.
Yes . I think there's another module that pairs with this and does it faster. But yea it's not so bad. Download icon resize it add it to folder. Not that bad .
hello! thanks for the reply i for some reason didnt get a notification on it. Is there a way to specifically do it on just emummc? Editing anything into the atmosphere folder affects both syscfw and emu iirc@@eradicatinglove
Well no you can separate them . But if you have emummc then you should never have to enter syscfw. If you use cfwsys unfortunately you can still get banned and the emummc was for nothing . Sorry if that's sounds rude I was trying to explain the difference. Just saying yea you can't separate sys and emummc cfw. Only emummc and ofw. Do you use cfw sys ? And for ?
Need to make sure the picture quality is high or at least 70% or it will show a Grey square. It does work I'm still using it . Maybe I can find an easier way
Hey . So I used windows paint app (not paint3D) regular paint app . And I just resized image 256x256 and I saved as jpeg. I didn't have to change resolution and I was able to get pictures I randomly downloaded to work. I even made 3 of my own with a photo editor and then saved jpeg in paint app and same result was a success. If you haven't tried windows paint I would try it . Hope this helps. When support for switch 17.0.0 comes out I will update my systweak for support and I will make a video on it
Oh wow this is pretty old. I will see when I can make a new tutorial. I need to find a resource that everyone can use and not have this Grey question mark 🤔
Hey I went ahead and updated systweak for 16.0.2. It works on my switch let me know if you try and it works . github.com/eradicatinglove/switch-sys-tweak/releases
@@eradicatinglove I literally found your update like 5 minutes ago, it definitely worked thanks a ton. Btw I think you should do a video on iconGrabber it’s a much easier method in my opinion. I think people would enjoy that !
Lol well that's good. I didn't offer before because I thought you had other sources to download from with systweak . Sorry bout that. That would be a good idea . I'll look into it .
Great video but thats ALOT of work just to change a game icon ugh. when you have 20 or more games that be so much work lol really needs to be more simple. but thanks for the walkthrough.
I agree with you . And that's because the pack I made actually does half the work for you . But there is another option to pair with this sysmodule . It's called icon grabber. And this will search images and should be just a pick and add to games . I will probably post a video on it
Lol yea it's all good I was joking too . Reading my response now seems serious. Thought I put lol at the end. Can I change it to 3 mins is long? I'm not a 1 min man bro 😉
