Customizer Question; creating units

Post by jiwelch »

I get how to make and edit the bitmap sprites and get them saved where I want etc., but when I look in the "Unit Templates/Edit Unit Templates" windown, the right sprites aren't showing in the unit preview window (above where the viewing angle is displayed). I've loaded the *.frc file, and the correct unit names are shown, but not the right units. Its not like its not 'parsing' the sprite map right; its not showing the correct units; its always the ones from the "Beta" set. How do you load the sprite maps?

Thanks,
Jason

Arrrr...I get it now. It uses whichever *.bmp is specified in the working directory. So you're best off copying an existing scenario/working dircetory and editing whats already there as opposed to trying to start fresh.
