Hello. Excuse my ignorance but that is Sphed?

[TonyE]

I have used it and made many new icons with it for my own mods. Took a little time to get into it but afterwards it went well.

Use it a fair amount, although I confess it's usually to import other people's icons

ShpEd is used edit game icons which are in SHP (shape) file format. SHP files can be exported as a BMP (Bitmap) image from the game using ShpEd. Or BMP images can be imported into the game and converted to SHP files.

SHP files are found in the game’s GRAPHICS folder.

Here's a tutorial I wrote a while ago, I'll start a new thread though, so we don't go off topic:

Thanks Cross. Kind enough to answer.
It may be interesting to create an icon or change it.
I think it can be a tool interesante.a as the player becomes more skilled.
I'm through (maybe) and I'm getting hand scenario editor. When I am an expert, I will send shped hand.

I have made extensive use of SHPED. It is a good utility.

I have used it to change flags in the game. To be honest it is a pain, but it works in the end.

I don't even know what is. I guess you could say I never used it before, because if used it before, I'm pretty sure I would know what was.

..........and that is exactly why I said "Only people who have used it need reply" in the first post
