all you need is manila editor (you can do a search for it) and then copy the *_manila files from your /windows folder on your device to your pc. Next start up the manila editor and point it to the folder you copied the *_manila files too. Now you can scroll through every image build into TF3D when you find th eone you want to change just export it as a jpg, png or whatever you like to work with. Change it to any color you like with you favorite editor (i think even paint brush will work for this task). Finally just go back to manila editor and press the replace button on the image you want to replace (the people frame in your case). You can now create a zip file of the image you replaced. Create the zip file and extract it and copy it back to the /windows folder on your device (overwriting the old one) Restart Tf3d and you will see your change
If anyone knows of a better tutotial for manila editor out there please respond

10x man!! I'll try

It will, however, not give you the full TAB funcionality. If you're used to using the TAB key for jumping from one field to another this doesn't work.

If you are using the english keyboard layout, you can edit the file eT9.Rhodium.wwe.kmap.txt in the windows directory to map one of the keys to TAB.
I have attached a copy that maps "fn + T" to "Tab" if that's all you are looking for. Just copy it to a folder in your TP2 and use resco/total commander to copy it to your windows directory.
P.S: If you are going to edit it further, remember to save it as unicode or else your keyboard will not function correctly. To revert back to the original keyboard settings, just delete the file from the windows directory and it'll revert back to the original file that came with the ROM.

The up/down arrow keys send you from one field to the next

I use PQzII (http://www.nicque.com/PQz/PQzII.htm) to map "Ctrl + Q" to "Tab", I also installed HookMgr from (http://www.mobiion.com/)

Go to HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\Ime\KeyboardLayouFiles and look at what file is registry key "07FF" is pointing to. That's the file that is currently being used to define the mapping rules. Copy it out to your pc and amend it using notepad and save it as a unicode txt file.
There are instructions in the txt file itself - you can amend the mapping of other keys if you desire.

Lua editing and manila editing:the book of secrets

Hey people,
Many people were pm'ing me n asking me to write tutorials on how to edit manila files n write lua.
As its a very less known topic im one of the few people who knows how to write it and edit it.
I will try to explain the basics first n then the advanced stuff
WHAT WE DO
---
To be frank
manila editing is complicated.Not cause its hard but cause it need a lot of imagination
UnLike other languages that uses graphics like flash or vb or whatever lua and manila editing DOES NOT give you a visual workspace
You have to image what you write in real time and so it needs a lot of trial /error
THE BASICS
What we need
1>m9editor
the files we want to work on
1>As the basics i would like to explain how the background for all tabs mod was made
1.we have a file called 5c9aa261_manila.
for me this is the most important file that a developer needs
in manila this is a file that controls backgrounds
1>For example it runs on every tab and executes its functions on every tab
It is the shadow of tf3d
So anything that you want in the background in every tab or u want to be seen in every tab u put here
So by common sense the slider and the background are in this file
Now what we do for the bgfor all mod
STEP 1
1>Make a png file size 512 X 512
Manila cant take a image of any size.Therea re fixed sizes.i personally always use the size 512 X 512
So now we have a image named lets say sample.png
STEP 2
copy the file 5c9aa261_manila from the windoes folder and open it in m9editor
doubl click it
NOw the hard part
the structure of a manila file was something that took me loads of thinking to figure out
a basic structure
Group (named whatever)
--FIle in group(top most layer)--this is what is seen right on top
--File in group(second layer)--this is what is seen underneath the upper file
and so on a and so forth
LUA
lua files are action script that are recognised by the tf3d
usually lua files are either of two types
1>binaries(damn its just a name nothing more)
using the search button you can search for "binary"
click on it and you will see code in it underneath
2>files that we ad..they always end in .lua ..so using search search for ".lua" and you will find it
Lua is scanned through by tf3d when u start it the first time
lua is usually at the top of the file
so for example lets write a little lua
Code:
money=function()
rotastrainsdonations=whatpeopledonated
if rotastrainsdonations>200$ then
title.String="rotastrainsrich"
else
title.String="need smore donations"
end
end
slider.onPress:money
this is seen by tf3d
whenever you will press the slider this function will be called
and it will display what the function does!!
So when u move around in the file you will see groups and files in them..
if you understand this much its enough to make whatever the hell u want
ok now getting back to what we want to do
Step 3
Searching for the existing background
images are always .qtc files
So search for ".qtc"
you will come to a file called "backgroundlevel1..blahblahblah.qtc"
now that we found it we need to place the file we want on top of it..so thats its seen in right on top and in every tab
so how to make a file that we want?heres secret no1
1>copy any qtc file thats existing by right clicking its entry ..for example the file now is "backgroundlevel1..blahblahblah.qtc"
right click copy
now right click on the entry again
click paste below
so now we have two entries of the same name
Group
--backgroundlevel1..blahblahblah.qtc
--backgroundlevel1..blahblahblah.qtc
change the top entries name
---change this name to whatever you want--for example firstbg
so now we have two entries
--firstbg.qtc
--backgroundlevel1..blahblahblah.qtc
now click ok
move your mouse over the entry
a small popup will appear
with a name like gftfgrh455_manila
thats the name of your file
Write it down somewhere
Click save
owerwrite
Step 4
now we need a qtc file to put ur image in
just take any _manila file from the windeos foler which is a image file
For example the file that i have used in my panoramic background mod
i will attach that here
paste it in the same place as the 5c9aa261_manila file
open it in m9editor
right click it
save as png
open the png file
paste your image in
save
open m9editor
right click the qtc file
load from png
rename the file to what we got earlier "gftfgrh455_manila"
done
Now paste both these files in ur widows folder
and walla
bgforall tabs in a second
This is a basic thing to do
Next step will be to integrate images with lua..
!!
Cheers
Rotastrain

Thank you very much for that dude!
It will be interesting to see if i can do some things with that... =)

Thanks for this basic guide Rotas, I read it and it's interesting!
I know how to code, I haven't used LUA yet, but I'll learn that.
Before I can do this though, I feel like I need a better understanding of the directory structure in manila files.
Do I understand correctly that a manila file (mode9) is basically a library of LUA functions?
Can you tell us some more about the directory structure and how you find certain things? For instance, what if I'd want to change something in the "All Programs" menu of the start button programs menu - where would I need to look, and how do I look for it?

Ok
First about the manila file structure
the file structure is like this
-------LUA files come here at the top of the file..----
Its usually under -scene
this controls everything that is underneath it
Now after thats over
we add all the graphics
so the lua on top controls all the graphics below..thats the main part.
the lua is executed like this
1>---first file
2>---second file
3>---third file
to find something i first copy all the files from ur windows folder to ur pc..open it in m9editor..the names come on the side..
then use imagination
thats y its hard..caus its too unstructured..
now the 'all programs' is not a page.
it is generated by lua that we cant decompile..
so dnt think changing it is possible..but if we can decompile n read thru the shjitn find a few variables tweaking them in a sepearte lua file is possible

[APP] Michy's Installer - complete wceload repleacement!

- Michy's Installer -
​Have you ever got an "Installation Unsuccesfull" message? Or a "Uninstall failed" message? Or worst thing an "Missing privileges" while installing a cab?
Now this messages are gone. With my installer, which is a complete Wceload and uninstaller replacement, any installation will complete without any problem
Main features:
Full repleacement for winceload
Select if you want or not to run setup dlls
Avoid failing for missing privileges
Get the space that an'installed app consumes after installing too
Search within your device the cabs you have and select what you want to install
Analyze FB_Install folders
Batch cabs installation
Installation processes can be aborted any time
If you are overwriting exes, they will be automatically terminated before installing
Advanced cab analyzer (view files contained, shortcut, regs, extract them......etc)
- MichyPrima_UC - ​
This system will let you to install:
.reg
.cab
.rgu
.xml
.provxml
.exe
Putting them in your SD/Microdrive/Diamond internal storage in the folder FB_Install. And them will be installed at first boot.
Information about files you can install:
- Files .cab -​
For a base installation of cabs you can put them in the folder FB_Install. Setup DLL will not be executed to avoid setup freezes. Anyway, there are ways to customize how your cab will be installed:
Installation to SD
Installation to MD
Activating Setup DLL
Possibility to use wceload to install (not advised)
For using them:
If your cab is mycab.cab and you want to install it to sd, simply create a file called mycab.tosd. if you want to install to MD, the name will be mycab.tomd, if you want to enable setup dll, the name will be mycab.enabledll. If you want to install using wceload... use .old extension.
- Files .reg, .rgu, .provxml e .xml -​Simply put them to FB_Install directory
- Files EXE - ​For a simple execution put them in FB_Install folder. If you need command line arguments, simply put them in a file called as your exe, but with .arguments extension.
- All files - ​All files can be skipped using .skip extension. eg if your file is mycab.cab , create a file with mycab.skip and it will not considered
- Other special functions: -​
File/folder structure restore
Creating the structure on SD it will be reversed into storage. We have more than only one folder where we can put our files (in FB_Install):
CopyInWindowsFolder (\windows)
CopyInProgramsFolder (\windows\start menu\programs)
CopyInProgramFilesFolder (\program files)
CopyInFavoritesFolder (\windows\favorites)
CopyInFontsFolder (\windows\fonts)
CopyInStartupFolder (\windows\startup)
CopyInRootFolder (\)
So, for copy/overwrite files in windows folder, only thing you need is to create a folder in FB_Install with name CopyInWindowsFolder. This is a recursive copy, so all subfolders will be copied.
Shortcut restoring
You can specificate the shortcut to create in shortcuts.txt file and put it in FB_Install folder. Each line will be a shortcut to create. The first part of the line contains where the shortcut will be, 2nd where the shortcut will point. The two parts are separated by ":".
We have ids there to:
%SD% (\storage card)
%PROGRAMS_STARTMENU% (\windows\start menu\programs)
%PROGRAM_FILES% (\program files)
%STARTUP% (\windows\startup)
%MYDOCUMENTS% (\my documents)
Example line:
%PROGRAMS_STARTMENU%\Test.lnk:%SD%\myprogram.exe
This line will create a "Test.lnk" in programs which points to \storage card\myprogram.exe.
Possibility to avoid final reset (not advised)
Just create a file with name NoResetAtEnd without extension in FB_Install folder.
Possibility to temporarily skip customization
Just create a file with name SkipCustomization without extension in FB_Install folder.
Do you want to process config lines to runcc?
Create a file with name AddToConfig.txt and there put your config lines.
Possibility to delete files or folder
Create a file with name Delete.txt. Each line is something to delete. You can use IDs as shortcuts

All I have to say is

Wow, sounds extremely "will have it now"!

My personal holy grail would be an APP that records changes as apps are installed to a point where I am happy then be able to gather all of the changes and build an install routine! Am I dreaming?

Wow sounds awesome and a gui, can't wait & thankyou

SIMPLY AMAZING!!!! cant wait...this should save me tons of time, and unlike other appz this seems easy 2 use and great!!!....thanks for ALL the hard work! ..waiting patiently
