I recoloured the BMP-2 to make a new 3 colour camo.

I recommend installing it as a new sprite to use the later BMP-2 unit in the database. To do this, copy the sprites to graphics/vehicle/su.
You need a custom database for the next bit..
copy:

<sprite name="su_bmp2_hs2" base_angle="0">
<image file="vehicle\su\su_bmp2_hs2.png" />
<translation origin="center"/>
<rotation origin="center"/>
</sprite>
<sprite name="su_bmp2_ts2" base_angle="0">
<image file="vehicle\su\su_bmp2_ts2.png" />
<translation origin="center"/>
<rotation origin="center"/>
</sprite>

and paste it into resources_custom.xml in your custom database, then edit the database in game (or you could edit units.xml in a text editor).
I recommend editing unit entry 448 (BMP-2, soviet) to use su_bmp2_hs2 as the summer hull sprite and su_bmp2_ts2 as thw summer turret sprite. This way, it will only appear later, 1987-91, and the original green version will appear before this.

Sorry it's a bit complicated.. if you just want to overwrite the original, rename the two sprites to su_bmp2_hs.png and su_bmp2_ts.png and copy to graphics/vehicle/su, remember to backup your original sprites though.

After the next game update it will be possible to make a custom database that comes with its own unit, aircraft, flag etc. sprites in the database folder, that are used instead of the default sprites without overwriting the originals, so modding will become much easier.

Yes, I thought something like that might be easier. At the moment if the database gets updated in a patch then all user created databases need to be redone from scratch if you want to stay current and up to date.

Here are some replacement sprites for the UK phantoms. Unzip to your database/graphics folder to install... or you can replace the originals, but backup the originals first in case you prefer them and want to revert back.
