Drive icon pack "drive.dll" what format

Post by *banelinde »

Hello,

in what format are "drive.dll" custom icon packs stored ?
I can open the dll with 7z packer, and extract the icons as BMP files.

But, how can i pack then back again, or build my own DRIVE icon pack ?!

Regards.
Banelinde

To use your own "drive.dll": Just make a copy of "drive.dll", lets say "My_DriveIcons.dll" and edit it with a resource editor.
Next add a line at wincmd.ini like:

Code: Select all

[Configuration]
DriveLib=%COMMANDER_PATH%\My_DriveIcons.dll
May this helps: HowTo

Many thanks.
I use Tweek Total Commander v.6.0.3 for the *.ini change.

Cheers.
