Nice Anonymous theme, but isn't he missing an "m" in there ?

[HeyManHRU]

There have been a couple of theme makers and tutorials for making themes, but creating a dynamic theme was always a bit hard. Hopefully this makes it a bit easier.

hopefully some smart people will make some hectic dynamic themes for us to apply to our ps3s

If you get an error on loading, grab the XNA 4.0 framework redistributable: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en....aspx?id=20914

Following up on his PS3 Rich Appearance Maker (R.A.M.), today PlayStation 3 homebrew developer Corwin75 has released Animated Theme Creator version 1.01 followed by v1.20 with details below.

Download: PS3 Animated Theme Creator v1.01 / PS3 Animated Theme Creator v1.20

To quote, roughly translated: Hi, Today I spoke to one of your members winch03200 and he gave me an idea.

Seeing the difficulty of people to create animated themes so I decided to create a small program (which will get better) is to quickly create file “raf” to integrate with your theme.

You need 7 files you can find in the SDK 3.41 from Sony:

• raf_compiler.exe
• raf_geom.exe
• raf_anim.exe
• raf_script.exe
• raf_pack.exe
• raf_compiler.inf
• dds2gtf.exe

You just select the images you want to use and choose how the theme:

• Video Displays images quickly to simulate a video
• Slide Show Displays images with a deteriorating

Then click on “create raf” to create the file “raf” that will be used to create your theme.

Changelog:

v1.01 Added:

• Debug mode (configuration)
• SlideShow-parameter

v1.20 Added:

• Slide horizontal (scrolling images left to right)
• Correction of problems with the files next to the exe
