The goal of these tests are to find any small bugs or issues I haven't found yet so tangerine can have a smooth release.
To get started, download the latest build here, and extract the files from it.
If you have both a New 3DS and Old 3DS, please use both to test if possible. Whether they are XL or not should not matter.
Copy "tangerine.cia" to your 3DS, and install it using the latest FBI release.
Copy "tangerine.3dsx" and "tangerine.smdh" to a folder named "tangerine" inside your "/3ds" folder. Create the folder if it does not already exist.
Once you have copied the .3dsx over, your files should look like so:
- /
- 3ds/
- tangerine/
- tangerine.3dsx
Please conduct these tests with some of your own audio files if possible, as sample audio files are not provided. It would be best to have files from each of the 3 formats: .wav, .flac, and .mp3. If you do not have files in these formats, you can use Audacity to convert them.
If your files are in the correct place, open the homebrew launcher and run tangerine. Once you have finished testing with the 3dsx, try all of the tests with the version you installed earlier as well.
- Check to see if all of the files you put on the SD card are listed in the main interface list
- Try playing all of the files you put on the SD card
- While playing the files, attempt to pause and resume them using A button or the touchscreen
- While playing the files, attempt to use the progress bar on the touchscreen to scrub to different portions of the files
- While playing the files, attempt to skip to the next and previous files using the L and R buttons
- Play each file at least once, all the way through, without any interaction
- While playing the files, close the lid of the 3DS and see if the audio continues to play
If you encounter any issues besides the Known Issues during your testing, please report them using as much detail as possible, including the file you were playing, and what action you had last executed. If you encounter any issues that cause the Luma exception screen to appear, please send the dump log as well.
If you encounter no issues, please report that you found no issues.
If you have any other suggestions on how to improve tangerine that are not already listed in the planned features, I'd be glad to hear them!
