I'm unofficially performing some maintainance. - Introduction + Introduction (original) ------------ Rcomage is a general purpose RCO creation/manipulation tool. It is designed to allow RCOs to be modified in almost any way, and intended to replace my previous application, RCO Editor. Rcomage should also generate almost fully "compliant" resource files (very similar to original Sony RCOs). RCO files are resource files that can be found in the PSP's flash0:/vsh/resource directory which contain stuff like icon data and various other resource components. RCOs can also be found on UMD Video/Audio discs, where they are used to supply resources to the menus. @@ -56,23 +60,26 @@ RcoFile - XML root element; generally does not need to be modified - Planned Features + Planned Features (experimental) ---------------- +- internal BMP <-> GIM converter (EXPERIMENTAL - Can dump some GIMs to BMP albeit very badly.
