The image is in that format. I will try to mess around with it some more. To try and shorten my testing cycle should I be able to see the image in the navboot file as soon as I exchange it, or do I need to recompile the cd-image and extract it again?

Two more questions:

1) I'm not sure about this step- 6. Now you're ready to make the new ISO image. On the top left window, click the first entry (it will look like 20060220_120036) edit the line to reflect "NAV_SW" and press return"
- I do not see anything that looks like " 20060220_120036" in UltraISO ?

2) The tutorial indicates- 7. Goto File->Save as and name the file of your choosing with "file type" as "mdf,mds".
- In a previous post it was mentioned that mdf files can simply be renamed as .iso files and burned with Nero etc... I assume the same can be done here? Is there any reason why the file isn't saved as an .iso file?

Thanks guys. Sorry for the **dumb** newb questions

I wish it would be as easy as that. Although, some effort has to be made on the user part. It would be diffiult to figure out before hand what splash screen one desired and zip it up into a finished product. This method allows a novice to essentially do this over and over again at a moments notice if they wanted to change the splash.

Here ya go

Yes, as soon as you exchange. The image should be displayed. You may have to scroll down to it again. As you did before, there are two images at HEX address [b1f418] the first is blank and you will not see anything. The one you need is below that.

When you start UltraISO, the window will be split into four quadrents. The top left labeled "Image" has the String in it.

You do not have to save it as MDS/MDF, ISO should work fine also. Most people are using Alcohol120 and require MDS/MDF format.

Great images, but I found them somewhat biased.

So find some more alternatives below

I didn't try them, as I don't want to play with beta software after the reports of broken hardware, but I sure as hell will customize my v27 splash screen

First, thanks go to Ucrewx5, the gracious host for facilitating the international cooperation that made it all possible.

Also, in the midst of all these jubilations, one should not forget to give props especially to Tyre and Martin for their persistency in sparking this unprecedented passion in making the Ultimate Splash Screen project a reality. Tino, RealShakaZulu, BeeDeeMan, Appy, Darky, PRichards and those that their names eludes me.

But of course, props to those of us non-techies that were cheering them on.

Whoaaaaaaaaa, that would make for a good OSCAR acceptance speech.

Now that the splash screen project is a success, what next?

If you don't want to try the beta software, but still want a custom logo, why not downgrade to V25, and upgrade to V26 again, but with a modded logo...that's what I'm going to do..

NavMan

Congrats! this is a big achievement for sure. We need a splash screen for FF fans.

Please excuse me if this is in a FAQ somewhere.

I might be the only casualty of this whole thing. I uploaded the image for the MINI and it worked great. I took a short drive, turned the car off for about 15min and then turned it back on. Car sat @ loading screen. I then pulled the battery and now it just loads the boot screen.

Would the fix for this be to reload and earlier firmware such as v26?
