How do i change the animation/sprites of the vulture's grenade explosion? does it use jpg or png images?



None.

In Iscript, the vulture grenade explosion is entry 440 in Images.
The image format is .grp, but I don't know much about image editing.
Just...if you use .jpg, you will be cursed👻👻.

The Curious

The SC sprites are .grp (1.16.1) or .anim (1.18 onward) files. Both are convertable to the mundane file formats (.bmp or .png) respectively using PYGRP - found in the same PYMS suite that you are apparently using - or Animosity. The latter utility has a thread (with download links) here: http://www.staredit.net/topic/17590/

If all you need is changing not the image itself but the way it works, yeah, Iscript is the thing to go for.



Trial and error... mostly error.

I opened a few .grp with PYGRP, Animosity cant open them even though it has the option to. I want to replace the image of the explosion, i dont know where the original image is located tho. I looked inside broodwar.mpq, starcraft.mpq, broodat.mpq, patch_rt.mpq.



None.

It's in StarDat.mpq, unit\thingy\efgHit.grp

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Thanks; I'm new to the site and a Spanish speaker. I must have missed the part where it was prohibited—I'll change it now.
I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
