Hi guys.
I'm new to the materia and I need your help. I just bought a smart watch amazfit bip and I want to "edit" a customized watchface with a picture. I installed AmazfitBipTools-1.0.3.1.7z in a folder, I downloaded the .bin file and executed watchface.exe file with name.bin (dragging the bin file on the executable) in theory I would have to get a folder with all the information and images originals of the bin file to be able to edit them and change them, but the folder is not generated. Can anybody help me? .

Thanks in advance. Best regards

Launching the exe like
WatchFace.exe ..\..\..\faces\5bf5a59a1185a_21112018.bin

will produce a log where you can find a line like
Exporting resources to '..\..\..\faces\5bf5a59a1185a_21112018'

this is the folder created.

Hi [mention]sfarkas[/mention].
Wonderfull tip, thanks, now I have solucionated it. For anyone who has this problem, I recommend doing the following:
  1. Make visible the hidden files of the system. (I attached images)
  2. Create folder with the AmazfitBipTools and copy in it the .bin file to edit
  3. Drag the .bin file on top the WatchFace executable
  4. Two folders will be generated in the directory C: \ VTRoot (HarddiskVolume1 and HarddiskVolume4). this folder is hidden if you have not done step one
  5. In the folder HarddiskVolume4 you will find the folder where the file is.
Thanks again.... This is a great community
