I'm still having difficulty with the icon issue. By icon I mean the unit that actually shows during gameplay. In Mobhack it's the icon that appears in the bottom right of the Mobhack unit screen for an individual unit, not the LBM. Can you walk me through how to change that icon?

Thanks again.

I thank Beeg for asking this question, as it is something I am wrestling with as well. My own spin on the question is this: I seem to have no trouble replacing a vehicle icon with another vehicle icon, but it seems darn near impossible for me to replace an infantry icon with a vehicle icon. My simple question is - is this intentional, ie is this hard-coded into the system? Thanks!
Of course it is intentional!. Infantry is infantry and vehicles are vehicles. Infantry have 1-13 "crew" and draw from a special set of the SHP file-set. Vehicles have a picture (hull and maybe a turret). Guns have (variable) crew and a piece of artillery.

There is no reason to try to replace a 4 man team with a jeep in any case.
