So I'm... I usually know what I'm doing when it comes to C&C modding (insert rant about how modding the original Tiberian Dawn is probably what lead me to become a Computer Science major here), buuuut... okay, to the point. I'm trying to use the 4TNK voxel that is present in Tiberian Sun in DTA. It works easily enough, but the voxel is all nasty looking, like it has the wrong palette.

I was trying to take apart the Orca voxel and see if I could... somehow figure out what palette it used (if this is even the issue) and apply it to this other voxel... no... that's not right. I'm not sure what to do.

Also this mod rawks, me and my little brother were LANning it up earlier. :X

But of course, the mod is yours, the majority of the credit goes to you.

Also I'm OCD, my work is always good >.>

Unfortunately, I'm having another problem modding this mod. I seem to be unable to extract the palets using XCC mixer, I always get an error. Is there anywhere to download them? Possibly in JASC format?

My current problem is... I mixed and match some SHPs to make a new unit, Mammoth Tank Bottom, SAM turret for a turret. I follow the structure of HTNK, with the same number of images and such.

Currently the game crashes the moment the unit appears (is done being built).

I extracted all the sprites as .pcx using "unittem.pal", or maybe it was "unitem.pal" with one 't'. And then I renamed and resized them, and ended up with "BTNK 0000" - "BTNK 0143".

I used XCC Mixer to copy the PCX's back into a Tiberian Sun SHP, and I have tried placing it in my own "Expand02_DTA.mix", and also tried putting it in "Expand02_DTA.mix -> dcache01.mix". I tried putting the SHP... in a number of other places as well, but nothing seems to work. I'm... unsure what is wrong.

Could I possibly email you the SHP, or... something?
