Problemn solved, Tracer. Thanks! I don't know why I missed those in the 14 icon file. I guess that I thought that they were further down the line than that, and never started looking at files that "early" in the list.

Thanks,

I found the muzzle flashes in the mbmuz.shp file. I had seen them in there before, when I was using UNSHP.EXE to go through all of the non-terrain and icon shp files, but didn't recognize them for what they were, as, in the game the muzzle flash happens so quickly, you don't ...

<t>Can someone tell me where these two icons can be located?<br/>
<br/>
1. The file that produces muzzle flash when a unit fires.<br/>
<br/>
2. The crater files. Apparently there is more than one file with craters in it, because I did an UNSHP, MAKSHP, HDSHP edit of one, but the changes didn't show ...

<t>Here are the mounted (brigade and divisional-level) and dismounted (regimental-level) command units for the Union and the Confederates. Yes, the AO has its own unique icon. Also there are the Union artillery crew and the infantry company icons for both sides.<br/>

<t>Thanks for posting those, Matt. I would imagine that some people were thinking that I was just talking noise about those, but i really couldn't get them to load. Thanks again for your help. Did I send you any of the battle screen shots?<br/>

I'm not a programmer but here's a suggestion - on changing formations, could you do something similar to how helicopter altitude is handled in SP:MBT? Or maybe do something w/ the Advance/Defend settings in ...

<t>Although I haven't yet been able to successfully upload any more SPCW screen shots, I did, in the interim learn how to edit the MECH.EXE file! What does that mean? It means that all of those 20th-Century anacronisms, and the text for those terrains whose icons can better be used for other things ...

For the moment, if anyone wants to see screenshots, let me know, and I'll send them to you. I can't get the upload to work.

<r><QUOTE author="sami heimola"><s>[QUOTE=sami heimola]</s>It's so nice to see that even somebody would improve that "alpha" version of SPCW which my team left some years ago. Great menu David:).

I'm not having any luck getting attached files to load. I'll keep trying, though.

<r>Chief, some aspects of the game, such as some of the menu buttons have no "period" counterpart, so I didn't bother changing them. But, now that you mention it, I'm glad that those buttons are grey! Les, when I am done with the whole thing, I'll put the whole mod. into a nice, neat package, and ...
