> > First of all, I'd like to say that the XCC is an awesome program. The only problem I seem to have is editing .SHP files. I've been trying for at least a week now to do it, and I'm still really stuck. Mostly I've been trying to edit the ore colors. At first, every .SHP I'd view would just be pure black. I've finally managed to view them now, but I can't get to the original Red Alert color scheme. So anything I view looks all wrong. And any file type I copy the .SHPs as, from .PCX to .JPEG, always turns out black on any paint program I try to edit it on.

Well, you've gotten me farther than ever now, and I've finally finished coloring the pictures I want...but I'm stuck again. How do I convert all of my JPEGs to an SHP animation? And how would I go about placing my refinished SHP into a MIX?
