Back to Menu Files¶
Filetypes¶
This page contains a list of all filetypes related to custom layouts and theming.
SZS Files¶
SZS
files are archives with a custom compression algorithm.
They are actually SARC
(aka ARC
) files. The compression algorithm that is used is Yaz0.
Structure¶
The structure of a menu SZS
file is generally the same:
๐ฆResidentMenu_11.0.1_original
โฃ ๐anim
โ โ ๐[filename].bflan
โฃ ๐bgsh
โ โฃ ๐__ArchiveShader.bnsh
โ โ ๐__ArchiveShader.bushvt
โฃ ๐blyt
โ โ ๐[filename].bflyt
โ ๐timg
โ ๐__Combined.bntx
The folders contain the following:
anim
: Animation files (.bflan
)bgsh
: GPU shaders (.bnsh
,.bushvt
)blyt
: Layout files (.bflyt
)timg
: Menu images (.bntx
)
For custom layouts we only touch the files in anim
and blyt
. However, it is interesting to note that the NXTheme Installer internally injects the nxtheme background image in the __Combined.bntx
file.
