!) Arse3 may have screwed you DAT files
2)YOu may have input wrong pathnames for the portraits you've edited
Btw, screw Arse3 - use DatEdit

You most likely messed up on the file names in the MPQ
all the .dat files go in arr\
iscript.bin goes in scripts\
never save a file as anything other then its original name

hm.... then problem is winmpq's open function?
that marine.mpq wont load on winmpq again?
So then try pick ohter mpq application like "mqp master"
that is latest released mpq application and working very fast also there include
allmost Blizzard game's mpq file list information
here is Delveloper's officall page
http://www.soarchin.com/main.php?lang=en
there r got many Blizzard mqp tools
try use "mqp master" , u probably will love that....

yeah~! i agree to use Datedit
but i had been use Arse3 allways before but that was no problem to use
important key is grade level of that user .....(i believe that)
Anyway, DatEdit is very usefull and capability but that could not make All Stuffs

Did you save the mpq as that...or did you save a .dat file as that?
If you saved the .dat file as that, save the .dat file as the correct file name and then import it into a new mpq with winmpq

Will it not open at all or just not work in sc because if it just wont work in sc is it saved under the right name for it I belive its Units/Marine.Mpq (havent farked with mods in a while)?

Don't use Arsenal III, use DatEdit.
1) Make the changes you want in DatEdit and save the file as units.dat (assuming it's the units you want to change)
2) Open WinMPQ and create a new MPQ that you can name marine.mpq
3) Press Add and locate your Units.dat-file. Type in "arr\" without the " in the dialog.
4) Make sure that the name now is "arr\units.dat" (no "'s) and close WinMPQ.
5) Open MPQDraft and press Load MPQ Patch
6) Select StarCraft -> StarCraft and press Next
7) Press Browse for MPQs and open marine.mpq. Make sure it's selected (a box next to it) and press Next
8) You don't need any plugins, so simply press Finish.
That should work.

Well i cannot really tell your problem from what you have said.
But, ill explain how to fix the common mistake....:
When you are finished making your dat files with ar3, open winmpq and go to
FILE > NEW.
This can be named anything.
Now, click "add" and find your DAT files made with ar3.
At the prompt, input 'arr\' and hit enter. (without ' )
Also, your dat file must be the proper name, there is no way out of this unless you want a non-working mod.
This should fix your problem. The next steps would be just loading it.
