Need help for edit units.gif files

[EnriqueCR]

Hi! This is the first message I write.
I´m a fan of Civ 2 in Spain, so you could forgive my mistakes in English...
My problem is that I want to create my own "grill" of units, modify the units.gif files to create my own units.gif file with a combination of units I have of others units.gif files (sorry for repeating units).
Thanks, and I hope i could help you I can.

What exactly seems to be the problem? Making the gifs? Saving them? Otherwise, simply edit an existing units.gif with a graphics package and copy'n paste the units you want, where you want them.

Yeah I had some problems with that once, but what are your problems?
I suggest you just use paint and save the file as units.bmp, as 256-colours. It works fine, and that was the solution to my problem. I never found out how to edit gif-files, but it doesn't matter.

Amen to that.

Si, definitivamente lo mejor que puedes hacer es ponerlos en formato bmp con 256 colores- tambien hay menos posibilidad de que te salgan corruptas cuando las insertes en el fichero de tu escenario...

Translated by babelfish. It's actually not very good:
