iGoSkinWizard v0.94b (Freeware, Open Source)
Requirements: Windows XP (this is a PC app)
Overview: iGo 8 skin resolution converter




This is my try at a skin converter, inspired by SkiGo but written from scratch and with some flexibility to play with.
It converts the .ui, .spr and .vpr script files by applying a set of rules, and resizes the bitmaps.
Feedback welcome, as well as input from skinners on what new rules need to be added and whether the existing ones make sense.
I don't have any experience skinning, so any help is more than welcome.
The replacement rules, if you want to take a look, are available using the "Show rules" button in the "Scripts" tab, and are the files named Rules.<ext> in the program directory.

UPDATE: Since I don't have any more time to develop this, I am releasing the source code. Contact Specter if you wish to continue development and use his website for releases.

Well, apparently I need all the help I can get understanding things. It looks like skins converted with iGoSkinWizard (800x480 on an iPaq 310) give a "FFUI error </layer> expected" message. However, much to my surprise, now even original, unchanged skins give the same error (I tried diMkaSpecter1.0.14). I have no idea if the original skin would have worked with 400x240 before my failed try with 800x480.
Any ideas?

in my case, after converting from 480x274 to 320x240 it gives me this error when GEODBCONFIG INIT is loading. Out of memory, requested: 1169471234, cache:0. Any one knows what this means ??
