i cant for the life of me get this programm to work, i read the manuaal, and it didnt help. Maby some one answer some of my questions, or post a more in depth guide. that would be lovely

heres the steps I use with IceCC

Decompiling:
1. move IceCC to the correct directory for it to work
2. select the Images/Sprites/Flingy/Units to decompile
3. browse for a save to directory to decompile it to, and enter a file name for it

Editing:
1. edit the text files replacing programming your new Iscript for the entries

Compiling:
1. click the 'Compiler' tab at the top of the window
2. add the text files you want to combine with the default IceCC
3. browse for a directory to save to, give it a name (remember the .bin part at the end), then click open
4. click decompile, and enjoy testing out your new Iscript

what do part of steps u need to know ?

thx u terrainfighter, i try it out that way, but when i go to de compile anything, itl say cant oppen file XXXXX/XXXX/XXXX/arr/units.dat, and it wont let me do nything. there so many ways i could make my mods better and assist the ons im working on, like SC toatal war.

That problem can be fixed by moving it to the C:\IceCC folder

Oh~! i just misinterpret the situation before, so i delete reply
----------------------------------------------------------
Anyway, if will do just compile then u do not have to that
It goes without saying that exceptions.

Am I missing something here? You're compiling units.dat with IceCC? IceCC is for iscript only.

You just need the .dat files because of the way IceCC was programmed

that ur saying is reason of my misinterpret the situation before
but he's question is not about that situation
because IceCC show message as XXXXX/XXXX/XXXX/arr/units.dat
when IceCC is decompile iscript.bin file if did not located to the C:\IceCC folder

i did what u said, but no results, u do mean the folder in witch the executable is in w/all the other crap?

I have a question to. I clicked on scv in the last box on the right and went to : Open in editor. Then it said, "Cannot find the iscript.txt file. Would u like to make a new one? HELP!

just do like this :

[-] [local drive C:]
l
[-] [IceCC]
l
[-] [data] - all reference data file located in here

and all about excute files must be located in C:\IceCC\

these files :
icecc.exe
icecc.ini
iceccui.ini
IceCCUI.BAT
IceCCUI.jar
icedc.bat
icedc.exe

ADDITION:

then just creat one iscript.txt file with use any text editor such as notepad
and that file must be located in IceCC folder

othewise is decomfile iscript to text file and save name to iscript.txt
Also that file must be located in IceCC folder

so is it i need to make a folder for icecc, or should i install it into that directiory?

Do you put anything on the iscript.txt file u make??

if like do just open text editor then put anything Also blanked file is ok
but if u want see actual script what decompile to human language, put decompiled iscript.txt file into IceCC folder
then ur problem wil solved

bytheway... here is just wodering...
you have know way how decompile to text file, right ?


answer is second
but if not exist [IcecC] folder in C: drive, make that in C:\
and move all files into that folder

just like this
( i think u could understand this even see some korean language)

thx u lots mr asn dude, ill try that

WTF???!!?!?!?!?!1111oneone

IceCC is used for opening Iscript.bin ONLY
Datedit (or....ar3 *shudder*) is used for .dat editing

he's question wasn't about that situation
because IceCC appears message as XXXXX/XXXX/XXXX/arr/units.dat
when IceCC is decompile iscript.bin file if IceCC did not located at the C:\IceCC folder
so he didn't said about *.dat files decompile thing

I posted the reason earlier, I guess I'll quote myself...

couldnt help myself but to make the same statement, its just a no-brainer. i cant stress no-brainer stuff enough.

I was using How to use IceCC tutorial. And after i finish typing 10. and press enter it says ' "icecc" is not regonized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file '



Wtf?!

Noobs guide:

Double-click on iceccUI.jar
Wait for it to load
When it loads, click on the units you want, they should be in the left column
next to the bottom text bar, you will find a button with the words "Browse" written on it.
Click the browse button.
When the next part comes up, go to anywhere, preferably onto your desktop or in the iceCC folder, type in iscript.txt, and click "open"
(i kno its crazy but dont farkin question it)
Next, click on "Decompile", (yes that big long word that you dont understand)
for the extra-noobish, go to google and type in: "Define: Decompile"
Now go to where you put the "iscript.txt" file, it should be in the location where you put it and i said preferably on your desktop or in the iceCC folder (if you can remember) and open the "iscript.txt" file.


If iceCCUI.jar does not open, get the latest version of java at http://java.com
Here is a more direct link: http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp







now that i have repeated what is written in the manual.
now i dont want to hear any more "ICECC DOESNT WORK!"

Just be careful with the Java user interface version (iceccUI.jar), because sometimes it won't tell you if there were actually errors in your script and it didn't compile. Sometimes it will report the errors and tell you, sometimes it won't. At least that's how it seems to work on my system. Perhaps my system is just moody. At any rate I would advise you to compile under a unique filename each time you do it, rather than replacing an existing file, so that you know for sure if it actually compiled or not.

Even better, use the DOS command line version; that one will never fail you.

I disagree with you, i believe that the UI version is better because its much easier to work with, yet there are some systems out there who screw around with the user (such as yours) and in that case, its better to use the DOS version.

But unless this person has the same problem as you, he should use the UI.

Edit: It might be your java is out-dated, try updating it then using iceccUI.jar.

Heh, my Java installation is fine, and updated. But who knows? At any rate, yes, this person can use whichever version he wishes, and I agree with you that the graphical interface is nice for those intimidated by the black, unforgiving DOS command screen.
