Ok, I've added some techs, and would like to use some of the conquest icons. I've edited the civlopedia, the pediaIcons(with the corresponding pcx files I want to use as icons, large and small), and have added the techs in the Civ3edit. All the TECH_BlahBlargWhatever all match up, no mispellings there, yet... I get errors on the science advisor screen.
Stranger still is that I've changed the icons for existing tech to some of those tech icons that came with conquests, and they work fine. To convey my feelings of frustration, I will display the following redish round-head: :mad: I assume his contorted facial expression and unhealthy pigmentation are precipitated by exasperation and not constipation.

So, if anyone knows what the problem is or would like to help, pray tell. I feel I've done the requisitory amount of searching, and have not easily found any related tutorials or posts.

In the scenario properties you need to indicate the path to these icons (the conquest folder name, etc...).
Easier approach is to copy these icons then past them in your scenario/Art/Civilopedia/icons/Tech folder.

Ah, I got it to work. Turns out the large tech listings have " _LARGE" at the end of the name. That caused a problem with the small icons to, somehow.
