it all started from Zings readme ....

Gah, you beat me to it. I've got a PDF tutorial going on. Maybe I'll still release it because I'm doing a more detailed one.

Woobie that will be great , so the more guides the better is for us users.

@ZiNgA BuRgA can you please tell me what rco file should i dump to make a moving or animated background wallpaper?

ZiNgA BuRgA · 18/01/2010 02:07 AM

Try system_plugin_bg.rco

This probably is a stupid question but could you explain how exaxtly a person should use the command line version. Because when I use it, I get a corrupted RCO and I used the help command too. It's probably just me being stupid but could you give an example. This is what I have now:

Files\Include\rcomage.exe compile Files\Build\system_plugin_bg\system_plugin_bg.xml Files\TEMP\VSH\resource\system_plugin_bg.rco --pack-hdr zlib

This is being used in a theme installer I'm making. After the user picks the options and waves and other stuff it builds the RCOs accordingly. How would I do this because right now I'm lost. The XML file and other stuff works fine in the GUI version though.

The only thing I can really think of now would be if you converted GIMs to PNG files (or you've got .png files in the XML where it says format="gim") and it's failing cause there's no GimConv. If this is the case, try supplying the GimConv path to Rcomage. You can always check the source code of the GUI for assistance.

Just add it - follow the same syntax/style as existing images (check other RCOs to see what it looks like).
You can also try the various guides around to see if they help.

Give a small example XML probably.
Did you link up the animation entries to onLoad events?
