MakeCG42FromBMP.pl monster.bmpOtherwise, your command line would be:
perl MakeCG42FromBMP.pl monster.bmp
The script would then output a file named monster.bmp.CG42.smg that would be a "code group 42" file that's ready to be used in your SBF.
Via PM I'm leading Jharmon12 through a hacking expedition to get to the point of manually fixing the very minor thing that is wrong with the SBFCodec output file that is making it blow up. If you want to follow along, PM me and I'll copy you as well.MakeCG42FromBMP.pl monster.bmpOtherwise, your command line would be:

Ok, I can now successfully do a facepalm! Like I said, it was a noob issue I was having. I was trying to run the command from the C:\, not the c:\scripts where the script was. Once I put the path in there, amazingly enough, I see the "FISH1552.bmp.CG42.smg" file. So basically, I have the CG42. Now I just need ot figure out how to get the other file combined with it.
My brain is a little fried right now trying , i will most likely start hashing away on it tomorrow.

It should be noted that the bootloader image is a 480 x 182 BMP file that only contains what appears in the center band of the screen. The areas above and below that band are filled in automatically.

Has anyone tried making a full screen boot image yet? If so, did it work and how did they do it?
it seems so complicated to do something so simple...i'm hung up on finding the checksum of the sbf in order to edit the binary....any way my chosen image is below if someone can do it by all means have at it..i think it'd be cool
got another couple questions for the group... does this flash too a file location or an eprom of some sorts and is there a finite number of flashes? also is there a way to stop RSD_Lite from greying out the start button?(RSD 4.6 B.T.W.)it started today when itried flashing a .sbf that had ()'s in the name and now it greys the button until i rename it to something with no spaces or underscores its kinda annoying lol..i'll try an upgrade to 4.7and see if it fixes it...comments are most welcomed
