I am working on a version of Risk Devo for RoC.
Right now I have the terran all imported and placed right but for some reason all the colors show up super dark on the minimap. is there a way to brighten it? I tried editing in paint after converting (then reconver/import) but i suck at using paint.

Lmk if u can help or if u need more info

You can try using gimp on the minimap. It has more features than paint (and it is freeware), allowing you to easily adjust the brightness levels:
http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tool-brightness-contrast.html

If that is what you're looking for, that is. Unless you mean the minimap dots (i.e. the units and creatures on the map)

that is exactly what i tried actually but idk how to use a brightening tool. oh i just looked at ur link thankyou i will try this soon

to daffa

yes its necessary. the minimap is much darker then the terrain, im using custom terrain that is colored pink/purple/red/green.

ty for the link
