5035 X2 Logo

[picopir8]

A very minor issue here. Its not really a problem, just something I noticed after playing around. I loaded 5035 and noticed that the x2 logo colors changed. Its no longer blue/silver, instead its bright pink. I had played around with the logo and flubber colors and the transpaency settings. I reverted back to the defaults and its still pink. Was the x2 logo changed or did I mess something up?

Any chance you could post the bmp?
I've tired with a few and cant get the PINK to show at all.

none of the included mslogos work. I have the new 2.6CE chips and 5035 and they already had a different logo on the bottom (xecuter rox my box). When I tried replacing it with i think asherah, it didn't replace the logo but made the xecuter rox my box PINK. I have 1.6, 2.6CE, and 5035. I also changed the flubber and x logo to red...(preset)


-THANKS

manually delete the x2config.ini & x2logo.bmp from your hdd, then try transfering them again.
btw what dash are you using?

 

[themrpark]

i'm using the default you had... xbmc (i had to change the path a little). I'll try the deleting process...i'll keep you posted.

 

[themrpark]

no. it didn't work. i think it may have to do with the chip? i have a new 2.6 CE with the 5035

I think I found it. I downloaded a virgin 5035 .ini file and modified a few parameters at a time until I got the pink logo. I then backed out the changes and sure enough the logo was fine. BTW, Im not using a custom logo, this refers to the x2 logo embedded in the bios.

It looks like the problem is with msLogoTransColor which when set to "00" appears to mess up the logo. Granted this may work with other color configurations but it does not work my color scheme (blue flubber/logo w/ red machinery/highlights). Just in case the color scheme plays a part in this, Ill post my entire .ini file. Note, there are two entries for msLogoTransColor (one is commened out). Depending on which entry is commented out, you should be able to switch between the messed up logo and the normal logo.

I'm not supprised it messed up, you took away one of the VAR's the bios tries to read, all you have given it now is an ALPHA value without colour information.

 

[themrpark]

hmmm. Can one of you guys real quick then tell me how to get presets Noir and a black background logo to work without pink (replacing the xecuter symbol?).

It's just a simple bmp named x2logo...mostly black 16bit windows bmp same size. (I put it in F:\ as x2logo.bmp along with the x2config.ini)

It's probably something simple right klutsh?

 

[Klutsh]

Yup, Really simple, the x2logo.bmp has to go on E:\

and try the attached x2config.ini

I had suspected this parameter when I first noticed the pink logo. I had played around with it to get it working. IIRC, I did try ff000000 and ffffffff and they gave me the pink logo as well. Turning logo transparency on/off didnt seem to do anything either. At that time I was not being systematic in my debugging (in other words, I may not have been trying what I thought I was trying). If I get a chance today, Ill try these settings again to see if they result in the pink logo.

 

[japagi]

If you fix it let us know because I am getting the same deal.

 

[japagi]

Ok I think I got it. I am not sure if this is the same situation for you guys as it was for me but I had the same pink logo. I read this thread about 300 times before it clicked. When I created my .ini file I used x2 config maker to do it. My assumtion was that for some reason the .bmp file would transfer automaticlly. Well I guess it doesn't. So I put the .bmp there myself. The problem was that is was still called cool blue or something. I changed the file name to x2logo.bmp like klutsh said about three times ( I guess I just missed it. ). Rebooted and viola. The pretty pink was gone. Let me know if this was the same thing for you guys. With all the help I have recieved in these forums it would be nice to know I returned the favor.....//

 

[Klutsh]

I dont see how it kept the cool blue name, below is tthe code used to transfer the logo and as you can see it's hard coded to "x2logo.bmp" it even deletes the previous version.

FlashPlayer.setVariable("_root.ftpSTATUS.text","Changing to /E");
	ftp.currentDir = "/E";
	FlashPlayer.setVariable("_root.ftpSTATUS.text","Removing Previous Logo");
	ftp.deleteFile("x2logo.bmp");
	FlashPlayer.setVariable("_root.ftpSTATUS.text","Uploading new Logo");
	ftp.upload("x2logo.bmp", resbmp);
	FlashPlayer.setVariable("_root.ftpSTATUS.text","Upload Successful");

with resbmp being the path to the image you want to use.

Could you please post bugs with x2 config maker on to the forums over at www.x-projects.org

This isnt really a support issue on how to get it working, but more of a question on the actual bmp image. I have an image that is 180x50 but it is not 256 color. I was wondering what software you guys were using to create the logo's. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks again for the great products guys, i continue to enjoy them daily.

Ok I found out how to convert files easily. Photoshop lets you change it through image>attributes I believe.
