The boys have already come up with the great idea of ​​converting still images into pseudo-animation. It would be nice if the selection was marked with a number and Convershacker was able to replace these images when selecting an image from a computer.
Of course, this can be solved manually, but among other settings you can think ...
Basically, I wanted to thank you for the great work and return to this forum. Thanks to you, you are moving a lot of things that definitely include “Thanks”
The idea is good, unique.
when there is free time, I will try to experiment in this direction, if no one else does it before.

At the moment, we are putting final touches on the new Convers IMG hacker release with DGAlexandru, then I plan to continue develop IPCupdate in order to cover all the modules and create a free analogue of UCDS. Of course, with the help of members of the forum ;)
Have you thought about making the ipc update work with ucds also, just a thought,
Anyway last update of convershacker great tool you guys are very clever people

@peter
I don't think you can delete only 4 bytes even in Main Flash.
You need to delete an entire flash page / sector.

Also, not all Main FW versions use the same region in flash to store the offset where the Boot Logo is, so this won't work as expected.

Agreed.
Minimum chunk size for delete - 0xFFFF (Main Flash). So, it’s a little difficult to make an online patcher

This is probably me getting it all wrong but Looking through the VBF doc. Z

Can the “ At address”. Be used I know it’s only one byte at one address can the command be used like blocks



This function sets a byte value at a specific address.
On the Edit menu, click At Address. Enter an address, a byte value, and press the OK button.

Yes, VBF allows this. Peter approached this way. The problem is that you can't modify a byte in a flash type memory unless you delete it first.. and you can't delete only a byte but a whole page / sector from that flash.

On an EEPROM memory type you can write only a byte.

Yeah of course my bad wasn’t thinking of corse it’s flash. I was using the command to change single byte in EEPROM.
