Here are some tools files that gives you the exact position to insert your graphs when you want to mod terrain sprites, mountains, forest, hills, etc

Your graphs must be in the hex insert in each tile

The files are in png format and may be immediatly used

After working, you have just to erase the pinky colors used for tiles and hex (if you do not want to use Gimp, that is a little bit complicated/heavy to use, you may use a free tool named "photofiltre" (awailable everywhere on internet, I use only this tool for my modding work and it's a very practical, simple and usefull tool to manage transparence images, filters, masks/calques, etc)

2 other little tools for unit_sprites and unit_sprites_nato (grids) : your units have to be in the pinky squares

These 2 files are immediatly usable (first, you have just to set the blank as transparent color ; and at end, to erase the pinky calque)

These grids have no hex because sometimes, it's more easy to work without. But at end they are needed to set the exact positions (I will later upload 2 grids with square + hex)

Same grids, with hex

In complement of other grids tools above, for those who want more easely calibrate position of their modded graphs :
The "terrain_sprites_zoom" grid tool (it works like others, using transparence function in photofiltre you may copy-past this grid on your file, to have a "over calque" that allows to place your graphs with more precision)
