Great job 
! I can't wait to see all the other AoE-Units.
Here is a Preview of the run animation.

The "phantom elefant" is only in the *.gif I uploaded. I try to fix that.
But there is an other thing: The shadow is very hard and black. There is a big difference to all other Civ3 units. Jimmyh, could you fix that?

I'm not converting theses units by hand, I've actually wrote a program to take the animations and place them in the pcx file that FLICSter needs, at the moment I don't know if I can tell which colour indexs are the shadows, but I'll have a look at it and see what I can do.
Cheers.

I don't know, but shadows are IMHO depend on the palettes only(?). If you could not insert this in your programm, you could (may be?) make a overlay ore something: First make the shadow not black - use dark grey instad (pic N° 3) and make sure only every second dot is used (image N° 2 and 3). That way makes it possible to add shadows without using palette colours for shadow.
I don't know if this is more simply than colour handling. And the shadows are not that "softly" like they are if using palette colours.

you should post your program in the utilities section
Jimmyh,
I've started using the Elephant Archer. It's excellent. Good work!
I have given it stats of 2/3/2 and available in the Ancient Age with the discovery of Polytheism (remind you of Civ II?). It is available only if you have access to Ivory (Ivory = Elephants).
In my current game, I am about to take on the Japanese, who have a pile of Elephant Archers lurking about. Looks like it'll be fun!
Thanks again!

i find that you can use the audio from longbowmen and the war elephant to give this unit sound

"I have given it stats of 2/3/2 ..."
Could you please how you do that? (stats of 2/3/2) to a new created unit?
Thanks a lot! Shirannybl
