Have a good look at the ini files in the folder 'mappedimages' and compare what you find there with the contents of the file 'commandbuttons.ini'.

You will get an 'aha!' pretty fast by just looking at the code. Have fun experimenting.

To more directly answer your question, first you'll need to find a new picture to use and then convert it to TGA. Make sure it's size is 64x64. Put it in the art/textures folder of your mod and then do what Sul suggested with the ini files :rolleyes:

Also take a look at the software and tutorials on the site as they will undoubtably answer some of your questions.

Wait... you can't use a map.ini file to add artwork into the game. You would have to mod it properly :p
