getting icons from the internet

[mathiashl]

here is how to get icons from the internet into we.

the only program we need is war3viewer.

If you don,t know what you want to take just go to googel and search for something.
when you find a picture just save it and open it in paint or whatever painting program you have.
Remember! Make sure that the painting program can save in .jpg , bmp or targa format.
Now scale the image to 64 x 64 pixel and save it as .jpg , .bmp or .tga.
save the image as "BTNiconname" and a darker version of it called "DISBTNiconnake".
use war3viewer to convert the pictures into .BLP format.

now we have to import the icon in we.
first open import mannager and import the files.

Call the normal icon "ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNiconsname.BLP
and the Darker one "ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled\DISBTNiconname.BLP

the icons name can be anything aslong as its has BTN and is the same as the darker one

that was it.
if it doesn,t work you have done something wrong.

We already have a whole bunch of these. Not to mention, there already is an importing tutorial attached to every icon.
