Now you have to fix the color levels!
- install HxD and open it
- click on "Analyzis" -> "File Compare" -> "Compare"
- (1) browse for "Source file" the copied original file from the root "\Toolpackage" directory "__Combined.bntx"
(2) and for "Target file", the "__Combined.bntx" with you custom Icon from the "Tool Package \ ResidentMenu \ timg"
(3) press "OK"
Note:
HEX_CODE Channels:
Zero = 00
One = 01
Red = 02
Green = 03
Blue = 04
original channels for Album-Icon: 01 01 01 02 (HEX)
custom Icon channels in my case: 02 02 02 01 (HEX)
- now you need to find the four modified color channels to repair them
to find the differences, press "F6" to see the next difference, again "F6"
you need to find the place where the value of your channels are displayed next to each other, above those of the original channels and below those of the custom icon
- if you find them, overwrite the values with the originals
- then make sure that the custom icon "__Combined.bntx" window is selected and click "File" -> "Save as" and save it to your desktop
- copy the "__Combined.bntx" from the desktop to "Toolpackage/ResidentMenu/timg" and ovewrite the old one
