OK, i have created the buildding itself in jpeg format.
Made another picture of it damaged in jpeg format.
Made buildup as gif file.

How do i get those into shp's?

1.Tried converting the building-damaged to gif anim and imported with OS SHP BUILDER but it deosn't show all the frames as it has too.

2.Tried to do as in the tutorial, converting the files into seperate PCX - XXX 0000, XXX 0001
and then taking both copied as one shp file but the image is corrupt.

How do i get those to work fine? + How do i get the buildup work fine too?

First of all, don't use jpeg. Do all files in pcx, I prefer tga.

Secondly, don't make a gif file of animation, do seperate files - again as pcx or tga - and number appropiately.

Thirdly, OS Shp builder, although a good program, is not the easiest to use for doing a building from scratch.

Paintshop would be more ideal (alot of the modders here use it) although I lean more towards Adobe Photoshop.

And lastly, there are tutorials on just about everything, (especially Paintshop), they will help guide you in the right direction. :mellow:
