I allready added those two pics as charlie.shp and charlieu.shp and they work perfect in the game.

 

I just want to use the GI character in the game. I gave it a female voice. But once it's build and comes out of the barracks it is invisible. But the GI is a normal GI... can it be because I use two time the GI character?

 

If so , how can I edit the character and make it an apart character?

I'm going to venture a guess and say gi2.shp doesn't exist.

[FoxGun 0]

Ok then, where and how do I add GI2 then.

I have these tools XCC_Utilities, InstallOSSHPBuilder, TibEd.

I'm not very handy with all the stuff, I only started 3 days ago to discover all this stuff.

 

Maybe if you can help me with how I can make my own shp character that can move! And where to place it. I would be helped a bit further.

 

Thanks

Since you want to use the GI as your base, extract it from the mix files using the XCC Mixer, rename it gi2.shp and throw it in a custom mix file.

[FoxGun 0]

Aaah yes ofcourse. Logical , but then another thing. GI.shp can find in which mix file? Because in cameo.mix I only can find the the icons!

 

 

edit: Thanks anyway, I found out myself where to find it! Conquer.mix.

 

Ok. I want to make the color of the GI different now. Any advice how to do that quick! Instead of changing every pixel for pixel and that in 700 frames ? :roll:

 

Maybe you also can tall me which pallette I need to use in XCC mixer to see the best graphical qualities?!

[Doctor Destiny 41]

There are tons of palettes but the most frequent ones are anim.pal, cameo.pal and unittem.pal. There are more but many are specialized and used for one or 2 instances like interface elements or, in YR, loading screens.

 

The easiest way to recolor infantry is to copy them as a single PCX, then use Paint Shop Pro to do a mass color replace on the desired color. It will still take a while but this is far less time consuming. However, graphics always take a lot of time... try coloring over 1000+ frames like the SEALs have. >_>

Ok, thank you! Well.. as long I don't have to edit the colors pixel for pixel

That would take weeks I geuss!

I have got to say, one, you just opened an old topic, and I must also say, of all posts to post, that is the most useless reason to register, and post, to simply say "Great information." Oh my god you're a ****ing retard.

 

Oh, you look like a bot. Never mind.
