A theme is composed by several files:
body_LZ.bin - Contains background images and some theme settings.
BGM.bcstm - Contains theme BGM sound.
Preview.png/.jpg/.bmp - Screenshot used by CHMM2 for preview system.
BGM.ogg - Contains theme BGM preview sound, used by CHMM2 for preview system.
info.smdh - Contains icon, author, description and title of the theme.
- To create first three files i recommend to use YATA+ (

KNOWN ISSUES
As you can state, this is a BETA version.
1) During tests we encountered some issues relating "An error occurred" message during shuffle system usage.
If you notice this error, please report what themes you were using and how many times you shuffled themes to make this appear.
2) It seems some themes without BGM.bcstm will cause audio issues (like themes with no sound or themes with wrong sounds). This is not CHMM2 fault but wrong body_LZ.bin creation by theme makers. I would ask to
@exelix11 to make BGM.bcstm usage hardcoded to OFF if no BGM.bcstm is provided to YATA+. That could fix this bug which afflicted also CHMM.
With your help we can fix this issues and make CHMM2 better!
