I've not tried Resource Hacker, but I have read a couple of times on other sites about occasional problems when changing various resources.

Just highlighting this so others know.

I'm writting an app called "Reshacker Script Creator" wich will let you create Reshacker scripts with ease. I just started yesterday so it will take a bit to get a full-working Alpha. I'm sure that this app + this tut will be very useful for customization lovers
