I am tinkering around with heroes in my free time. Anyway, I was wondering where I could find a file or zip that contains all of the images (Units, items, upgrades, spells) in Frozen Throne that could be used as buttons/icons. I've tried searching but I couldn't find any. Please help!

1. Download WC3 Viewer (in tool section)
2. Open up WC3 Viewer.
3. Click on the MPQ Open button.
4. Select war3.mpq for RoC icons or war3x.mpq for TFT icons.
5. Click on the tree list view to open up a window.
6. Browse through the mpq to find the icons.
7. Right click on the icon you want on the list, and extract and convert .blp to any image format you want.

I really appreciate you helping me out with this, but I'm a bit confused. When I followed your directions, all I found were 3-D models of all the warcraft images. All i need is the 2-D button images, just like they appear when you play the game.
I'm sorry if they're there and I'm just looking over them. Thanks again for helping me out.

Theres none such thing as 3D " warcraft images " it is 2D if you extract the icon from your mpq. Of course, on the list theres 3 sections - models, skins and local drives (select skins)
