Well after hours of reading the forums, and about a dozen attempts to make the Magisk Module, I finally got it to work. I guess sometimes it's doesn't completely download the necessary bits when first opened, so it was erroring out with 'W: COULD NOT FIND RESOURCES'... which is said on here can be ignored, but it literally wasn't finding the resources it needed to make the .zip!
I moved the directory to a simple c:/smali/ folder to ensure data creation for resources wasn't erroring because of any strange characters or anything. Then deleted everything but the originally extracted SmaliPatcher data. And then I opened Smali once without my phone attached and let it acquire resources (which shows down at the bottom; I think I may have closed it early the first time because I didn't know it was working on anything?).
After that, and connecting my phone, I was able to run through the Module creation successfully three times in a row, with different settings.
It'd be handy if on first open, and while downloading various things, the app had a popup that explained that it was working and what the progress was,. Instead of hiding that info in the bottom bar of the app, leaving the app to appear idle.
