I also hunted for a long time, and eventually overcame the crash in the rsrc2rcp program and now it converts well.....
Try this: rsrc2rcp -I <directory> -rsrc <filename>.rsrc -NoConvPict -oRcp <filename>.rcp You then need to convert the output PCT to BMP. I can highly recommend Graphic Workshop Professional (but there are hundreds of them out there - and this only needs to be done once) next you need to change the PCT entried in the resulting RCP file to BMP. If you are using cygwin (or unix) do: perl -p0777i -e 's/.pct/.bmp/gm;' <filename>.rcp If not, just use notepad to search and replace the text. Now you are all set to go! I spent days trying to figure out how to successfully convert my .rsrc files, and I haven't had a problem with the proces soutlined above yet.
