You have to open up the file or soemthing, either that or u could read the 26 step program that someone else posted somewhere around here

violentj, tell us to the letter what you do. Modding is touchy (http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=15465)

The new one released on April first was not a joke and MemGraft supports 1.12b thanks to SI.

I did. You're obviously making a tiny mistake. See the example help topic, and list what you are doing to the letter.

here well i made the 1 from storm fortress but i deleted it

violentj, I had a look, and it appears you haven't ticked the "Permanent cloak" box under the advanced tab in Arsenal III, that's why your marine isn't turning out cloaked.

Ok, Violent iss right. I did your test mod DT, i Followed it down to the exact wire (My friends and both my parents watched and made sure) and when i openend it up in Starcraft, the SCVremained the same, I am going to try again, however.

Addition:

It works, make sure you type arr\ when it asks for the prompt.

Can you read? You did't check "Permanently Cloaked" an Aresenal III as BSTRhino said.

Double-checking.. did I copy something down wrong? I do every stepas I write it and it worked fine. But SC did random-freeze after like 5 minutes. Will update when i check.

not sure if its been asked before because im not looking through all pages but...

The Vulture part:
The vultures turn green when they are facing up and there are 16 different BMP's. Does that mean the vulture can face 16 different directions? an do all units face 16 different directions?

Do you think when you are done someone could make it into a file?
So you could just go to the top or something and click what chapter and it jumps to it?

This way people could use it anywhere, it would be alot nicer, and it could be made neater (in the way that wouldn't have to scroll through everything to find something).

Odd> Actually there's 32 different possibilities (one for each frame and one more the mirror image). However, most units are lazy and have a duplicate frame for each direction. I'm not toally sure how those work. But if you get the Infested Battlecruiser graphics then you will see that it has 17 (000-016) positions from straight up to straight down.

Farty> I'm not really sure I want to export it to an html file, and I can't add bookmarks to SEN posts. I know what you mean though.
