Need HELP with Zulu9812's icon file !!!

[DfromLions]

I'm trying to incorporate the Apache helicopter unit into a scenario - I've got the .flc files, .wav files as well as the .ini file, so I'm nearly there...

However, the editor refuses to let me use icons greater than #167 on my units_32 file.pcx (from Zulu9812) - This means that I can only use icons listed on the first 6 rows of the file.

- I've cut and pasted the Apache logo into #140 (some dinosaur) and it appeared that I had it made, but the editor still pulls up that damn dinosaur

Can anyone tell me how to correctly cut and paste on the unit_32 file so that the editor recognizes the change OR simply tell me why the editor won't allow me to go > #167 on Zulu9812's sheet?

Any help here would be greatly appreciated - I'm about to start pulling my hair out by the roots

First time using this - I didn't want to this to be a completely new thread... just a post onto the thread started by Zulu9812

What pacth are you using? If it's anything before 1.21f that might explain why you can't get an icon past 140. And what program did you use to edit the file, and did you paste as 'transparent' or 'new selection'?
