Photo

Ok the minimap image has to be either 128x128 or 256x256 (if 256x256 doesnt work then try 128x128) it has to be a .tga and when you import it the path should be war3mapPreview.tga.

Hope it helps :wink:

Import

OH! Ok, well in the world editor you know where the object editor is up at top? Well 4 spots to the right is the icon that looks like a peice of paper with a green arrow. You can also press F12. Once in the import manager press ctrl+I.


Once again, hope it helps :wink:

For Reign of Chaos you must use WINMpq to import your file to specified path. I won't go into importing process because it is easy, if u don't understand it find some skin importing tutorials using winmpq it is same but other path.

Oh and winmpq is available for download on this site on Tools section and u must repeat importing everytime u save the map. Hope I helped...
