Installation

Sync your games with hakchi at least once before installing. That's when hakchi creates the folders on your console that the mod relies on.

What you need

  • Hakchi2 CE
  • My Options Menu fork — the menu this mod plugs into. CompCom's original Options Menu 1.3.4 is not compatible.
  • Hakchi Wi-Fi mod (WPA Supplicant) and a USB Wi-Fi adapter — only if you want to download themes from the console
  • A USB/SD drive (USB host) is recommended. Themes are often 5–30 MB each and the console's internal memory (NAND) fills up quickly.

In hakchi's settings, turn on Separate games storage and Separate games for multiboot:

Hakchi settings

Option 1: from my Mod Hub (recommended)

  1. In hakchi, open Manage repositories and add:

    https://defkorns.github.io/hakchi-repo/
    
  2. Install Options Menu from the hub.

  3. Install Options Menu - Theme Selector from the hub.

  4. (Optional) Install the Wi-Fi mod.

New versions show up in the hub automatically.

Option 2: by hand

  1. Download the latest .hmod files:

  2. Put them in hakchi's user_mods folder:

    user_mods

    You can also drag and drop them onto the hakchi window instead.

  3. Install Options Menu first, then Options Menu - Theme Selector, from Modules → Install extra modules:

    om installation

First run

Open the Options Menu — hold L+R on a SNES/Super Famicom, or B+Down on a NES/Famicom — and go to Themes. Continue with Usage.

Themes in the Options Menu

Upgrading from Theme Selector 2, Theme Randomizer or Advanced Music Hack

Just install this version. It uninstalls those mods itself and keeps your themes, your music and your last applied theme.
