Add Gamesync IDscript (thanks @scj643) - Added: got back to the original PKSM icon from several years ago. I think it has a little bit more personality.

- General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience.
PKSM 10.2.2
What's new
- Added: logging. Now PKSM is able to fully log the startup and title loading process (both on screen, in memory and on file) in order to improve the debugging of existing and future issues.
- Logs are accessible in files located in
/3ds/PKSM/logs, which are split by day. - Logs are also accessible at runtime through an integrated HTTP server at the following addresses:
http://3ds-ip-address:8000/logs/memoryfor the logs of PKSM's current runhttp://3ds-ip-address:8000/logs/filefor all the logs for the current date
- The console IP address is shown on the bottom screen at startup.
- Logs are accessible in files located in
- Added: more informative debug screen on startup, where one can see what PKSM is currently doing. This will help debugging for people having startup freeze issues.
- Added: shiny/egg indicator in the wondercard injection screen.
- Fixed: optimized sound initialization if there's no background music to run. Now sound initialization is entirely skipped if unnecessary, making PKSM loading faster and with less resources needed.
- This also fixes a startup freeze issue related to sound loading.
- Fixed: long standing memory leak in the wondercard selection screen causing random crashes.
- General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience.

PKSM 10.1.3: Au Revoir (attempt 2)
Preface
Back in 2019, I (@FM1337) came up with an idea called GPSS, it was a way for users to be able to share Pokemon together with other people, kinda like the GTS, except you're not trading, you're sharing a copy. Later it also allowed me to introduce a often requested feature of auto legalization (with the help of @piepie62 of course).
Ran it for almost 6 years, but now it's time for me to move on, I'm handing control of FlagBrew back over to @BernardoGiordano and stepping away from the team.
It's been a fun journey, but alas everything comes to an end, and with that comes the discontinuation of GPSS and Auto Legality, at-least from me.
I'm not going to leave you all in the dark, before this release I wrote a little C# application that let's you run your own GPSS server, you can grab it at https://github.com/FlagBrew/local-gpss
With it, comes essentially all the cloud features (GPSS, Legality Status, Auto Legality), all hosted within your own network.
First time you run PKSM after this update, if you go to use one of the cloud features, you'll be prompted to go into settings and set your server's URL (it MUST end with a slash), once you do that, you should be good to go.
And with that, let's get down to the changes
Changes
- New settings page tab introduced
- Titled
API, it allows you to enter the server URL of Local GPSS.
- Titled
- Updated GPSS to require setting the Local GPSS server URL before it can be accessed.
- Updated Legality Check & Auto Legality to require GPSS server URL to be set before it can be used.
- Added timeout value (10 seconds for legality check, 120 seconds for auto legalization) to ensure you don't lock your console up if you input a bad URL or forget to start the server
- Removed GPSS Mobile button
- French Ribbons Labels fixed (thank you @Zanguu)
- Removed Random GPSS Pokemon script from PKSM-Scripts
- Perhaps someone could open a PR and add the functionality into Local GPSS so that it could be added again?
- Disabled patreon builds.
- Build action on GitHub now publishes the builds
- Added curl timeouts to GPSS pages
Farewell
Well this is the last build/release from me, I got a few other things to take care of, but I just wanted to say thank you everyone for using PKSM (No PKSM isn't going away, I'm sure there'll be plenty of updates for it in the future), thank you to @piepie62 @LiquidFenrir @BernardoGiordano @architdate @GriffinG1 @SpiredMoth @JourneyOver @Admiral-Fish for being awesome team members, and a sincere thank you to everyone who has helped out with PKSM over the years!
I'll have a final goodbye message on FlagBrew's Discord soon enough, but yeah, thank you and farewell π«‘

PKSM 10.1.1: Bug Fixed The Bug Fix Release
PKSM 10.1.0: Bug Fix Release
PKSM 10.1.0
Hey everyone, long time no speak again huh?
This isn't a major release or anything, just bringing some existing bug fixes into release so address some issues.
I (@FM1337) have started looking into Switch development for PKSM, it is gonna take some time so don't expect anything any time soon.
Additionally, it is all but confirmed that our main developer is no longer available for continuing development for PKSM, as such I will take over and do what I can, but I'm not a C++ developer, so outside help through pull requests is much appreciated (and will likely be needed).
That being said, the bug fixes that our main developer had finished will be listed below in the form of referencing the GitHub issue number.
Fixes
- Fixed #1372
- Fixed #1373
- Fixed #1374
- Fixed #1381
- Fixed #1384
- Fixed #1391
- Fixed #1392
- Fixed #1394
- Fixed GPSS download codes not working.
From the entire FlagBrew team, we'd like to thank our Patreon supporters, and we would also like to thank everyone for their patience and understanding during the long intervals in between updates.
Note: the ELF file here is for ease of finding it for future debugging. It is unlikely anyone downloading PKSM will need it.
