Is your feature request related to a problem?

In part it could be a missing function.
I also think it would be nice to change the default behavior.

Example of the problem

One of the issues i have sometimes is when i need a file related to a app and UU doesn't extract it. I would like to be able to keep the archive to manually extract the files needed.

Describe the solution you'd like
maybe a prompt after downloading to keep the archive? or a option in the settings? Both would be best tbh.

Does not show up in homebrew launcher

To Reproduce:

1. Download 3DSX version of universal-updater
2. put the 3dsx file into the 3ds folder in your sd card
3. open up the homebrew launcher and you will see it is not there

I thought I would see the app in the homebrew launcher and be able to open it just like the .cia version.

I am unable to tell the app that I want it to forget that I installed something in-app. My example was mikewii's Luma3DS-plugin: I replaced it (with Nanquitas'), but when mikewii updated I got the icon suggesting I update that software which I didn't have.

Describe the solution you'd like
My considered solution is that there's a button in either an app's info or download page that allows removing the app from the installation log.

Describe alternatives you've considered
There is manually editing the JSON, but that's too conducive to messing things up.

Hi, wanting to create another homebrew (personal that I would not share), I relied on the source code of Universal Updater BUT I have a problem during the build: I am using powershell in the base folder of universal updater and I use the "make" command, powershell shows me :

compilation terminated.

Hey. I recently downloaded the latest version of this homebrew and
I believe script support is gone. Why has this happened? How do I use
my custom scripts now?

TinyDB website cant be reached anymore, the TinyDB button in the Store search menu will just lead to a download failed message, (it will still write a corrupt store to the store list, which has to be deleted)

Try to install the TinyDB store via the "UniStore"->"Store Search"->"TinyDB" Button.

My file is here: https://github.com/GeTuck/UniHB/raw/main/Builds/UniHB-v015.unistore but when I open it up in the UniStore, there is only one item, that is Minicraft (I scan the QR code in my release). I tried to add another thing, but I couldn't find anything in the UU wiki, so I tried to imrovise and it didn't work. How can I have more than 1 item?

EDIT: Also, how can I make a spritesheet? I can't download the spritesheet maker because I don't have Windows, can I do it online somehow?

Is your feature request related to a problem?
The problem is that you cannot perform multiple installations in queue.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to be able to explore the content of the store while I download some content from it.
Also, being able to add other facilities to the queue.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I propose to make the following changes:

• Being able to explore the store while downloads and installations are taking place in the background.
• To be able to "Add to the queue" other contents of the store to download and install them.
• Block the "Exit" button when an installation is in progress in the background and reactivate when the queue ends.

I do not know if technically it can be done, but the application will improve a lot with that change.

Describe the bug: So I'm not sure what caused this, but now every time I try to open universal-updater (or scroll over it) I get an arm9: data abort error from luma. Tried to remove it, but that results in the same error. Any ideas on why this could be happening and how it can be fixed?

Context

I open the app, go to UniStore -> Store list -> Universal-DB. It takes me to a screen where I can see a lot of icons of the app. The problem is, I don't know most of the names of the apps and the icons by themselves don't always give me enough information to know what the app is and what it does, some apps don't even have icons.

So I have to manually press A in each selected icon to be able to see its name, then select B to go back, go to the next icon and do the same process over and over just so I can know what each app does, which doesn't make for a great user experience imho :(

Suggestions for potential fixes

1 - Show the app titles bellow the icon. This is actually how it's done on the Apps Menu on Android, so you could give a look at how Android handles this problem for inspiration
2 - For a quick fix, you could show the title of the currently selected app on the top or lower bar, or even somewhere in the lower screen. You would still need to select the app to see its name, but at least you don't have to go to the Details screen back and forth so it's a improvement

Describe the bug
Might be Universal-Core related or not.. but at least whenever I try to exit from Get Scripts with Fading enabled - it does crash. [edit]: That also seems to happen without Fading now and on latest Nightly.

To Reproduce
1.) Start Universal-Updater.
2.) Go to Scripts -> Get Scripts.
3.) Exit from it by Pressing B -> and crash.

Expected behavior
Do not crash instead.

And also it would be nice to be able to download a homebrew when closing the console, as this is currently not possible.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Add batch update feature, similar to how MultiUpdater works (right trigger on the list marks all for update).

Describe the solution you'd like
A way to update/install all currently filtered entries in the store. A list of store entries to quickly update can be made by labeling store entries with an icon (such as star) then filtering to that icon and running the batch update operation.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Allowing for a markup language defined list of specific update procedures (exactly how multiupdater works).
Manually updating each store entry (current solution, cumbersome).

Additional context
Multiupdater is no longer maintained and it had great functionality. It would be nice to see its primary feature integrated into the currently maintained 3ds updater. See the final issue on its repo:
LiquidFenrir/MultiUpdater#66

You get a Crash on Universal-Updater when going to Get Scripts or using the download functions? You have a custom DNS or Proxy set? Then there is an easy solution!

REMOVE THE CUSTOM DNS OR PROXY!!

We do not plan on supporting custom DNS or Proxy's.

Without documentation i tried QR code URL to add a Unistore, but it killed the Universal Updater.

Describe the solution you'd like
Some documentation what to include into the QR will be cool.

Here you can follow the rewrite of Universal-Updater.

Things planned:

• When starting the app.. straight go into Universal DB.
• When pressing SELECT, open a sidebar menu with Sorting, Settings and Credits.
• Rework the complete Codebase.
• Likely more.

Feel free to comment under this "issue", if i forgot something or for any ideas.

It's very confusing to make it even with a baseplate of a UniStore as I can't do make one to this day

I would like a UniStore Creator could be made in HTML, JS and CSS It can even be a windows, mac or Linux program

I have been trying to get it to work but nothing works and most users of Universal Update don't know JSON and JSON is very picky about there encoding.

I Will make concept art soon.

Bye ^-^

when I tried to download retroarch it gave me arm9 error
now is saying that universal updater may crash

I'm currently working with a Japanese 3DS LL that I've converted to English using CTRTransfer.
Unfortunately when using Universal Updater it seems to be defaulting to Japanese.

I have tried making sure the region in the 3DS settings is set to USA and I've selected my home state but it doesn't seem to make a difference within universal updater.

The ability to choose the language or region within the updater would be amazing.

Thank you!

When I go into the menu to use the NTR/TWL update script, the menu goes into grey-scale like in the screenshot. None of my other script menus do this. Why is this?

This is the To-Do list for v3.0.0, so People can check, what is already done, what not.

• Do the Script Creator usable.

• Improvements for Universal-Updater.

• Add a moveFile Function, so People can move / "Backup" files.

• Add QR Code Scanning for UniStore, so you can scan QR Codes from the UniStore site.

• Unknown yet.

Hello, it would be nice if we had a more easy way or to make it more clear to make your own unistore.

It would nice if you could have a video guide or even a UI for Computers to make you're own unistore

You see I would like to have a unistore where I can so I can instantly access them as I have a small SD card and I uninstall and reinstall games a lot and I could benefit from that.

Hope you reply soon.

Comment extraire avec un script .json une archive ayant un .zip, un .z001 et un .z002 ?

This is the TODO list for the Universal-Updater rewrite to make the code-base cleaner and easier to work with. It will be updated over time.

Shared

• Remake all of the menus from v3
• Remake all of the action classes from v3
• Get the queue system working again

3DS version

• Probably something I'm not thinking of

DSi version

• dsiwifi, mbedtls, and curl libraries
  • Wi-Fi is rather slow, but it is functional and that's mainly on dsiwifi's end to fix
• Update Universal-Core NDS to be more or less compatible with the 3DS version
  • Some parts are still quite WIP and there's definitely optimizations to be made, but it's working pretty well
• More complete font and maybe multiple sizes
  • Might just steal TWiLight's font(s), currently it's just using the minimal NitroFS font from TWiLight

Hi. So i was trying to make a unistore that could link to my projects and it looks like i did something wrong because when i load it in the app it says "MISSING : storeInfo". However, i have a storeInfo in my file. i won't copy paste the code but you can found it on my github. If you can help me, i'll be thankful.

I follow frustrated because we have to download the homebrews one by one, in addition I sometimes want to stop a download because my connection is slow is to want to resume it later.
As well as other stuff....

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a queue system, which you can organize, remove from the queue, be able to intervene the order between two homebrews.That even if the queue is running, be able to leave universal updater and that when you come back, The holding line picks up where it was.
And finally, make sure that when a download fails, and that we restart it, that it comes back where it was, for example if we were at 4Mb on 6Mb, that when we postpone downloading it remember where we were and restart at 4Mb.
I also wish I could see the download speed.
Also add a little animation at boot time when downloading the data, because I have the impression that the console is frozen. xd
And also being able to download the standby feed in standby mode would be great.
I would also like to see the battery, the time at the top, and also that the keyboard offers me suggestions just with the initial, and also see the place I have on my SD card in MB, because it is block on the 3DS ;P

Otherwise thank you very much for Universal-Updater, very convenient

I'm not sure if it's a good idea to add an option or not so good that if a download goes down, it waits a bit and sends back a request and if not, that it keeps the file instead of deleting it, and that it picks up where it left off, because even if Universal-updater is good, with a bad connection it's a horror.

In the meantime, thank you very much for this wonderful homebrew.

Thanks you very much

We know that TinyDB is down currently and that causes the UniStore to not work properly. If you want to know, when it's up again look at this issue or join our discord Server. (link in the ReadMe)
