Hello@all!
Today I tried to convert this icon pack: http://mr-ragnarok.deviantart.com/gallery/?q=best+of+the+best#/d2m5y51 to a 7tsp pack. This is my first 7tsppack so I dont know exactly how to do this. So I did the following steps:
1. I extracted the icon resource with the resource hacker from the dll-files in the pack to a .rc file (resource script)
2. Then I removed the standart win7 icon file from the .rc-file
3. After that I convertet th .rc-file with the tool rc.exe in the windows sdk to a .res-file.
4. Now I put the .res-files I created in a folder called Resources
5. In the parentfolder of the resource-folder I put this Pack.ini:


[Base Pack]
Pack=Best of the Best
Base by=Mr.Ragnarok
version=0.1
date:12-November-2011

[7tsp]
theme creator=XXXxxxXXX
theme=
uxhex=no
mui=no

6. I packed the Pack.ini + the resoucefolder with 7Zip to a .7z archiv and called it 7tsp_bestofthebest.7z
But if I want to apply the pack with 7tsp it just don't patch any system file (it says: time took: 15sec files patched: 0)
I can open the .res-files with resource hacker without any problems and see all resources I added!
I attached the pack to this post and hope somebody can halp me with this!

OK the problem is that you didn't add .dll to your file names, you must have the full file extension as well as .res as the end.
