I did try to build a 3.9 ROM but unfortunately it didn't work when I BlizKicked it :-(


Did Blizkick say something like 'object is not of required type' ?

There's a small 'feature' with Blizkick , it doesn't expect to find exec v45 in ROM and so it can't add any ExtResBuffer if needed. Basically, Blizkick is looking for a specific instruction to patch which isn't there in exec v45, and quits with that error message.
But this only applies if your kicking a ROM image and adding modules at the same time, kicking a ROM on it's own is fine.... er, hope that's clear as mud.
 
Anyway, there's a workaround for this problem with the last ROMSplit beta (0.96) . You'll have to extract Exec V45 from the OS ROM Update file again to have the patch applied.
On schedule, and suing
