Absolutely. It's nice to see the developers that work so hard on these custom OS's get some recognition.

Thanks. Wanted to get an idea of GarlicOS' customizability before I net myself an RG35XX Plus sometime down the line. I'm a major geek when it comes to customizable gaming hardware, so even though I don't even own the system yet I'm already putting together quick notes for how to do everything and your video is a nice quick preview on what to do. Thanks!

Thanks for the comment and glad you found the video helpful! If you're looking to get the plus model, keep in mind that it won't run this current version of GarlicOS. So unfortunately these customization tricks will be obsolete. The good news is that Black-Seraph, who is the developer of GarlicOS, is currently working on GarlicOS 2.0 and it will have a number of better features. I hope to start doing videos on it as soon as it's ready for primetime.

Best vid I've seen explaining this. Same thing for the garlic os install tutorial. Thanks!!

Does anyone know how to randomise the boot logos? My RG35XX came preinstalled with Garlic and every time I booted up it had a different boot logo. When I've swapped out the SD to a dual set up with better quality SD's I can only change it to a single boot logo.

i do have a question a coppyed the boot logo exactly has you did and did the same stuf you did but insteade of the boot logo i chsen appear a white square logo saying "donx software engeneering " or something like that do you have any idea what could be?

how does it work with animated logos?

So I changed out the boot logo, and it only shows the custom logo on the first initial boot. If I reboot, the system shuffles through about 6 different logos that my specific unit shipped with, and I can't figure out how to stop it from doing that. Any ideas?

A gz is a form of zip file so you should be okay. Do the existing ones have a .gz extension or are they .zip?

​​@@otggaming3180think it just depends on what program you use. I use winrar so zip files and .gz files etc. (theyre gnu zip files made with linux) just show up as winrar icons. If you have 7zip they'll show as 7zip files and if you have nothing I assume windows just shows them as regular zip files. Should be no issue though (unless you need winrar or 7zip or something to unzip them)

It's on SD card 1. Are you able to see the partition that has the "modules" folder and various system files? If you're on Windows, sometimes it won't assign a drive letter to the partition so you have to do it manually through Windows Disk Management

@chonstonjr

@@otggaming3180 Yeah, I'm looking through it now. I'm on GarlicOS 1.4.7, so it may be that the files have been re-organized after an update. There is no "modules" or "misc" folder. Regardless, either from searching the entire file locations for a "boot_logo" file or from manually going through each folder, the boot logo just isn't visible--and that's with "show hidden files" on.

@otggaming3180

@@chonstonjr There should be two partitions on the GarlicOS card with system files and folders on them. It sounds like you're able to see the partition that has the BIOS, CFW, and ROMS folders on it. However, the boot logo isn't stored on that partition. You want the partition that I show at 1:30 of the video, it only has the "modules" folder and a number of system files, one of those files being the boot logo. If you can't find it from file explorer, likely Windows hasn't assigned it a drive letter. If you try to assign a drive letter and it still doesn't show up, I'm thinking maybe a fresh install of GarlicOS might be in order.

Can we make our own boot logo with gimp? Or only preview this gimp app? We can make our own boot logo or no?

@otggaming3180

9 ай бұрын

Yes, you can. The boot logo is just a bitmap file contained within a gzip (gz) file. So to make your own logo, take any graphic you have and convert it into a .bmp file. Also make sure it is 640x480 to match the resolution of the RG35XX. Then rename the file to 'boot_logo.bmp' and add it to a gzip archive using a free tool like 7-zip. The resulting file should be 'boot_logo.bmp.gz' Replace the original with this one and you should be good.

I don’t have a cfw folder in my roms. It’s out of it. Do I move that cfw folder into my roms partition?

@otggaming3180

8 ай бұрын

No. Keep the CFW folder outside of your ROMs folder where it currently is. If you move the CFW folder it will break GarlicOS. It can be a bit confusing because GarlicOS uses a ROMs partition and on that same partition there is also a ROMs folder. The CFW folder is also on the ROMs partition, but it is separate from the ROM's folder... hope that makes sense :)
