What program do you need to open/edit a .res file? ![]()
New Unit Theme by GUGA - Version 2.0
What program do you need to open/edit a .res file?
Go to 7zip.com and grab the latest version. Rename image.res to image.7z
I use Gimp to edit the files. Be sure to save them at the same color-depth as the original and keep the alpha layer intact.
When you re-compress them, make sure to save in 7-zip format and ensure when you open the image.res there is only the 'image" folder visible in the root.
hey guga, anyway you would be able to add http://www.photodump.org/stored26/Picturee043.jpg to the car image file??
thanks!


regards
For any MX-5 NC Owners

Nice work Guga, Like the civic, too bad its not a Mugen Si civic then it would fit my car perfect (thats what i drive)

Thanks for the help. Tried changing images and compressed the file back up but when i installed it on my system, no images appear. Just text. Pretty sure I did it right. I dont want all the images from GUGA's theme so i took the image files i DID want and moved/copied them to my default image.res. Could that cause a problem? There are files in GUGA's image.res that arent in the default image.res. Do those need to be copied over too?
Thanks.

i think the reason why no image appears is because you weren't able to zip it back properly,
Am i suppose to compress the first Image folder or the second? When I unzipped it it opened up Image>Image>AV,Common etc.. So thats how i re-compressed it. First time i've ever used the 7zip program. So if you could help me on how to use it, it would be greatly appreciated. ![]()

what i did was i zipped a couple of them and just see which ones work, zip the image folder first, then zip the main image folder, and so on, let me know how it goes
In the 7zip program, do you have to change any of the settings?
What i did. Right clicked main Image folder, Add to archive, and in the window that opens made sure the correct zip type was selected and left the rest set to default.
Is that correct?

Yes, I did. Didnt work. Just gonna try GUGA's file as it is.
Edit - That worked no problem. Guess I'm not compressing it correctly. ![]()

Lonestar,
Sorry, but as I said in the first post I'll not do personal requests for navigation icons.
GUGA
Ok, No problem. I'll just use yours until i can create my own Destination and Contacts images.
Thanks. ![]()

Can you add THIS one?

PS... Just kidding
OK... Thanks very much for this awesome, easy upgrade. I loaded it on to my unit and I was driving down the road the other day and my truck just paused my Ipod and started barking at me. While I was laughing the unit was not responsive. Has this happened to anyone else? It hasn't happened since then. Also, almost every speed/redlight camera is wrong. Is this common? There aren't even any speed cameras in this part of FL.
Thanks

there are a few "speed cams" around here that show up that either don't exist or are not speed cams, A few of the ones that don't exist have the poles up and wires coming out the top, but no cams there yet (or have been there for years) and the ones that are not speed cams around here are the NC DOT hiways cams that the DOT (dep. of trans) use to watch the traffic for wrecks and traffic jams, and to also help the NCHP during a hi speed chase. then a few others they use on some bridges to track the ammount of traffi, BUt other then that they we dont have ANY speed cams that actually catch you speeding here, so i just turned off the cam alert unless I'm going on a trip.

Guys,
You are mixing things up....my mod doesn't have anything to do with the IGO software like barking dogs, speedcams and other stuff.... You probalbly changed the stock data.zip file and THIS is the one doing all this stuff to your unit.
