buddy Posted June 16, 2000 Share Posted June 16, 2000 I'll share what meager knowledge I have - talked with someone the other day on a chat and found out some things (some I already knew). Apparently the graphics are "bundled" (for lack of a better word) into Graphics 1, 2, etc. files. These can be opened with an application called Res Edit. Once there you will see a series of graphics in thumbnail rows. Select the one you wish to modify, copy it (Command C) and paste it into Adobe Photoshop (or some other graphics program, I guess). In Photoshop I know can you modify the graphic. Once finished, copy the thing and then paste it where it came from to begin with. This is where I can't get it right. When I paste it into the file it automatically renames the file (which doesn't allow the game to find it - so it doesn't work). Basically I got it this far but I need help to go further. Oh yeah, ONE VERY IMPORTANT THING TO REMEMBER. MAKE A COPY OF THE GRAPHICS FILE BEFORE YOU SCREW WITH IT OR YOU MAY END UP WITH A MODIFIED FILE THAT DOESN'T WORK AND NO ORIGINAL TO FALL BACK ON. Copy the Graphics file to your desktop for safekeeping, modify the file in your game folder. If it doesn't work, simply trash the non-working modified file and replace with the original. That's all I know. Someone else maybe can pick it up from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Germanboy Posted June 16, 2000 Share Posted June 16, 2000 Maybe stuff like this should go into the new tech support forum? Just a thought. We've got them, I think we should use them. ------------------ Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
