About CtrRGBPAT2

StreetPass, friends, low battery and the rest each get their own colour and pattern, with separate settings for when the console is asleep or awake. There's an editor for making your own patterns, presets to load, and previews in most places. Luma3DS has to be installed for it to work.

Two of the notification types are labelled Unknown. The author found the Unknown pattern fires when the console boots or wakes from sleep, and suggests it for a lid-opening effect.

If your 3DS crashes on boot after applying it, delete /luma/sysmodules/0004013000003502.ips and /luma/titles/0004013000003502/code.ips, then report it on GitHub. Based on CPunch's CtrRGBPATTY.

Release notes

v2.5 · V2.5 · Apr 27, 2025

Hello again

I'm back for another release with quite the exciting changes. Most notably...

Low battery pattern editing

That's right, you can now make this annoying blinking light less of a pain with this new release. I know some of you had been waiting for it for a long time so here it finally is. Do note that there is currently no way to change the color of the LED as it does not function the same way as a classic animation.

For the rest, here's a full list of the changes :

  • Reworked the menus a bit (again)
  • Pattern editor now also shows separate R G and B values that you can edit
  • Added loading menus for default animations and currently installed animations
  • Added previews in a few places (pattern editor, low battery, and some loading menus)
  • Added joystick/CPAD support
  • Added direction holding support (you can now move faster in the menus)
  • Added better B key handling (go back one menu at a time instead of directly to the main menu)
  • Fixed the colors not showing on the display (pull request have been sent to devkitPro/libctru)
  • Fixed the preview holding a color if the last one was set (#1, do any action to stop the preview)
  • Fixed the building process a bit. No more errors

Note that if you try to build the file manually, the result might be different as i have used my own version of libctru which includes the lastest version with devkitPro/libctru#570 and devkitPro/libctru#561 applied.

I hope you enjoy this release, the next one will probably add pattern loading from a file.

Have fun ! :)
