hey, long time no see modding community.

unfortunately im not back for SC modding, but im working on a java game that i need frame by frame animations of explosions and i already have one starcraft explosion decompiled and i want some more. Basicly i forgot where the terran explosion grps are located and what they are indexed as, i found the protoss ones but they do not look as good decompiled.


Thank you, i know this isnt really modding and any moderator is free to delete this after solution. Thanks!

Look at the iscript for various units. That will tell you what image holds the explosion. Then, you can look under images.dat.

The Images entries / GRP Files are:
332 Explosion2 (Small) / GRP File: 217, thingy\tBangS.grp
333 Explosion2 (Medium) / GRP File: 218, thingy\tBangL.grp
334 Building Explosion (Large) / GRP File: 219, thingy\tBangX.grp

There are some other entries but they use the same grps, so they dont really matter. There are a few more explosions from weapons and things IE Missiles or Nuke.
Hope that helps.
