Configuration

This application can be configured by editing yapm.cfg. More detailed information can be found inside the file.

You can configure the .txt files you want to edit, the corresponding menu items and you can also set the seplugins path to use.

It is possible to use Flash0 Plugin loader v2 by changing the setting flash0_writeable. This requires a HEN to be loaded and also you need to make sure you have flash0 protection disabled.

Note that some settings are taken from the system registry such as the default language and the Access Point that was last used to access internet.

If Japanese locale is detected then the configured font and font source is ignored, and Japanese font is automatically selected.

You can also alter the colors used in the application by editing default.col. This filename can also be changed allowing you to switch between different color sets.

You can change the translations by installing the partypak and edit the relevant file in the lang subdirectory.
