Convert a Single PCX into SHP (TS) Infantry
Submitted by ArgCmdr

Many people have been asking me how to do this lately. Well, so that i stop being bugged on MSN about it, heres a text to link the askers to.

In XCC Mixer, Right click on the file, move your mouse to Clipboard and select Copy. Right click anywhere, go to Clipboard, and select Paste as SHP.

Choose the options as you want them to be, and there you go. Just keep in mind the size of each frame, and the frame count, and youll be fine as long as those are correct.

Then again, you can overwrite existant SHPs keeping their name and frame size/count used for the new one, if you right click on the SHP when you choose Paste as SHP (TS). This proves to be excellent for recolors, for example.

If your computer cant manage such a big image file (they tend to be 2000ish pixels in height), you can also use:
OS SHP Builder ( http://www.ppmsite.com ) -Freeware-
Or Jasc Image Robot ( http://www.jasc.com ) -Shareware-
