WC3 Image Extractor II

[Mallaboro]

So, figure it's about time I learn how to make a loading screen. I've got a good guide to go by, but as you already know most WC3 Image Extractor II download links are taken down, and this being the Hive Workshop, someones bound to have made a superior tool to ... do whatever it is the Image Extractor does, so after looking in tools... Still clueless. Anyone point me in the direction of the right program?

First, download: Warcraft III Viewer

Next, open the tool up. There should be a treeview window that pops up. If it doesn't, go to "View -> Treeview Window" or press CTRL+H.


On the upper portion of the treeview, select "BLP"


Now just browse your MPQ and find the file you need. Once you select it, it will appear on Wc3 viewer's main screen. To save it, go to "Current File -> Extract (and convert) BLP".


Then you're done. =D This tool also allows you to view .MDX (and their animations, as far as I know), and you can convert many image types to .BLP and back.

Hey, I got another question to this tool...: I have downloaded Warcraft III Image Extractor and extracted it and all those things...

But when I "play"s the program an error-message appears:
Graphics Utility: Component 'comdlg32.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid. Well, the file it says is missing is inside the same folder as the program, but I don't know what I am supposed to do with the file to make Warcraft III Image Extractor work...

What am I suppose to do?

You have two choices:

• The simplest method, this will allow a program to automatically install most of the files that get commonly marked as missing for .exe files.

• Install it yourself:
  http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/support_dll.phtml?dllname=COMDLG32.OCX
  Basically, download it and copy it to your system folder. Then use the "Run" and type this:
  regsvr32 \windows\system32\COMDLG32.OCX
