I never said that .res cannot be flashed
And for the compressed thing, it has happened with me
so....
Sorry if anything is wrong but I only shared what I know
So I will explain ^^.
.res is the uncompressed form of .bin file
.
No,
.res can also be used for compressed form without any problem.
Only, with tool used to modify Resources, if you use
.res for compressed form you will have :
- MyResources.res
(compressed).
- MyResources.res.res
(uncompressed).
And tool will not be able to decompile uncompressed Resources if you don't rename one of the two files. For example, if you rename like that :
- MyResources.res
(compressed).
- MyResources
_.res.res
(uncompressed).
It will succeed decompile.
You can also name compressed Resources with
.bin (MyResources.bin) to avoid rename file after uncompress.
You have to rename a file only if you get
compress word(only in special case. Note- the compress word only comes sometimes) at the end of it for example the final file has the name:-
myresource.res.bin.compress, then make it myresource.res.bin
For example at the end the final name and size should be like this(refer image below):-

Thanks
You can rename compiled Resources
.res. Using your example, it will me
myresource.res.
Personally, I only share
.res for we can't be confused about what's file type it's.
Firmware:
.fw.
Font:
.ft.
Resources :
