Need Help with "FM Radio" Skin

[polum]

I am trying to make a new skin for my Polaris (Qvga).

I edit the installation cab, and after modifing the file "Fm_Skings.pkg" , the one with all the png images inside, the Fm Radio program don´t run anymore.

I am usign Winrar to edit this file... Do I need a different tool?

Hehe...old thread, but would be great if somebody could explain what tools are needed to get .pkg-files working.
This will help me to save much memory on rom-cooking.
Thanks in advance!

Doesn't work! One of the first things I've tried.

Just tried a few things and found a solution: just extracted png's from FM_Skins.pkg, compressed them and copied the compressed files to windows folder on Diamond...and see there, it's working like a charme. Again a bit of memory saved on rom (0,5mb on FM_Skins.pkg without any noticeable graphical changes).

One important thing is not to use compression when you save the files to make a new package. Use zip compression = 0.

Multiple files in windows folder make reading of directory slower.
