Hi all,

i´d d like to know what program you would recommend for editing the terrain graphics in AT. I´am a newbie in graphic modding so i´d prefer an easy to use program.

Well, as far as free programs go, I like Paint.NET

Vic told me a very good small freeware program which was easy to use,
but i forgot the name. Maybe he can remember.
A small freeware one should be enough with not too many functions you don´t need.
Simple as possible.
 
Found the program: "Ultimate paint".
Google for.

GIMP (it's open source (free))
Adding alpha channels is necessary if you want to mod the units, (so the icons stay transparent over the counter).

Yeah, GIMP is excellent too.

actually the tradional pink color (255,0,255) will be rendered transparent too.

kind regards,
Vic

I´ll try it with Paint.Net.

Actually i´am working on a WW1 Scenario. I wish there would be some more documentaion explaining the Editor and some examples.
It´s alot learning by doing until now

I put together a WWI scenario that is in the scenario bank. It might give you some good ideas. Best way to learn the editor is look at some of the event code. If you have specific questions, I may be able to help you out.
