Modding Terrain/Unit Graphics

I'm converting a board game to SC and I'd like to make a terrain mod to replace the terrain graphics with solid colors so it's easier to tell what player controls what parts of the board. I've downloaded Hawt Tiles (TileEdit 2) from Campaign Creations but I have no idea how to use it. Do I need to extract tilesets from one of the SC MPQs first? Do I then just replace existing tiles with custom graphics or should I use the blank/black tiles? Thanks, guys.

Yeah, extract the terrain files and open them with hawt tiles. It should draw the tiles for you and you can export / import groups as bitmaps for you to edit.



fuck you all

Alright, thanks. I have another question, though. Do I have to do anything special to change burrowed unit graphics as opposed to regular unit graphics? Or does it all work the same way?



None.

Oh_Man -- and no consistent easy to use way to then play the audio either

Oh_Man -- where they use third party audioprogram called WWISE which basically makes adding audio extremely difficult

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.

NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.
