Using the VMS Files
When you're done creating/editing the VMS files, you'll first need to calculate the VMS checksum. I use the VMS_CRC program for that. I'd also recommend putting the program (and DCI_VMI & your VMS files also for that matter) in the same directory as FPDEdit.
Calculating the checksum
In DOS type: VMS_CRC filename.vms
Simple as that.
Creating VMI and DCI files
Once you have the VMS file with a proper checksum, you'll need to use DCI_VMI to create the VMI and DCI files.
In DOS type: DCI_VMI filename.vms
Then enter:
- D for data
- The desired dci filename: filename (without .dci)
- DCI copyable: Yes
- Filename that appears in VMU directory:
- if it's a logo: FIREPROD.P0?
- an expansion edit: FIREPROD.E0?
- ("?" is the slot you want to save to)
- It doesn't really matter what you put for the last two (VMI information)
