Hello,

I had this problem 2-3 years ago and someone posted the directions but I guess that post was lost/deleted. There was a post at Matrix a few years ago explaining in detail how to convert the icon. I tried to find it but could not.

I do not want to step on anybody's toes. I appreciate the hard work that goes into creating scenarios and the unit icons.

I am not a big fan of the German MG unit. I know there is a retro unit that looks like a MG on a box. I prefer the Talonsoft version to the MG that came in JTCS version.

"Warhorse" (Mike) sent me the 2 icons (EF & WF) I downloaded them to the EF & WF directory but that did not fix the problem. I think there is something else I have to do.

The icons are file Up01213 in EF and file Up01238 in WF. (German MG units).

Any help would be appreciated.

THANKS!

Look at the special folder, there is a mg icon too. Replace this with the new and you have the right icon in game
