How do you switch images on the .gif files? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Please treat this as if it were a question from your ten-year-old nephew who knows a bit about computers. There are a number of modpacks out, with varying styles for this unit and that.

Now, suppose, for instance, I want to trade Tim Smith's Elephant for his Allosaur. How do I go about it?

I understand that it's supposed to be a matter of clip and paste, with careful attention to getting all of one square directly on top of another.

My two tries at this have screwed up all the colour in the screen except for the units. The rest of it comes across as a negative image.

What went wrong? And what program should I use to do the cutting and pasting? I've been using a freeware program called Ultimate Paint, and the standard Microsoft Paintbrush, with equally dismal results.

Any tips would be welcome.

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

I think with the .gif files they must be saved as 87a non-interlaced (or some such technical gumpf) gif file.

It is a lot easier to save the gifs as bitmaps (.bmp) and then cut and paste using those, as there is no similar restriction on bitmpas.

Merci beaucoup. J'ai printe la page, mais les instructions sont tres court.

Pardonnez-moi. Mon francais n'est pas capable pour ce discussion-ci.

I did exactly as your page suggests, and since I was working with Tim Smith's Hi-res units, there seemed no necessity to make special arrangements for the shield.

I'll make another effort, and see what happens.
