I finally figured out the mystery on how to change the radar color of tiberium, which should be useful for alot of mods. Here's how to do it:

Open the SHP of the tiberium (tib##.tem or tib##.sno, ## being a number from 01 to 20) in a hex editor and search for "03 00 00 00 00 00 00" (it should work either with or without spaces).
If you didn't get any results, try looking for "03 00 00 00 00 00 07" instead and if you still don't get any results, just leave the last number away, because it might vary sometimes (do not forget it's part of the number you'll need to replace however).

You should've gotten 12 results, like on the screenshot. The last 6 0's (3 groups of 2 0's) are a hex RGB code which tells the game which color it should display on the radar; the first result is for the first frame, the second result is for the second frame and so on.

Now change those last 6 0's of each result into the RGB hex code of the color you want. You can find the RGB hex code in the color picker of most image editing programs (paint doesn't have one though), I used Photoshop.


Now save it and repeat this for every SHP of the tiberium.
