I tried to put pillbox/barbedwire from ww2 in the game.
I put all the pillbox/barbedwire pic in \pictures. edit tileimp, unit, uniticon and newspirit. I couldn't start the game. I did a little investigated, the program need icon and some file for it.

Icon ICON_TILEIMP_BARBEDWIRE
Tooltip TOOLTIP_TILEIMP_SELECT_BARBEDWIRE_BUTTON
Statusbar STATUSBAR_TILEIMP_SELECT_BARBEDWIRE_BUTTON

I couldn't find it in the ww2 dir. There is no mention of it
anyway I know of. Can anyone help?

They are in default\gamedata\uniticon.txt and \english\gamedata\tips_str.txt

Line: 388 in uniticon.txt

ICON_TILEIMP_PILLBOX { FirstFrame "UPTP085L.TGA" Movie "NULL" Gameplay "TILEIMP_PILLBOX_GAMEPLAY" Historical "NULL" Prereq "TILEIMP_PILLBOX_PREREQ" Vari "TILEIMP_PILLBOX_STATISTICS" Icon "UPTI085D.tga" LargeIcon "NULL" SmallIcon "NULL" StatText "NULL" }
ICON_TILEIMP_BARBEDWIRE { FirstFrame "UPTP088L.TGA" Movie "NULL" Gameplay "TILEIMP_BARBEDWIRE_GAMEPLAY" Historical "TILEIMP_BARBEDWIRE_HISTORICAL" Prereq "TILEIMP_BARBEDWIRE_PREREQ" Vari "TILEIMP_BARBEDWIRE_STATISTICS" Icon "UPTI088.tga" LargeIcon "NULL" SmallIcon "NULL" StatText "NULL" }

End of tips_str.txt:

# Added for WWII Scenario
STATUSBAR_TILEIMP_SELECT_PILLBOX_BUTTON "Pillboxes can be placed on any land-based tile."
TOOLTIP_TILEIMP_SELECT_PILLBOX_BUTTON "Pillbox"
STATUSBAR_TILEIMP_SELECT_BARBEDWIRE_BUTTON "Barbed Wire Fence can be placed on any land-based tile."
TOOLTIP_TILEIMP_SELECT_BARBEDWIRE_BUTTON "Barbed Wire Fence"

I think you also have to copy over the gtset555.til and gtset565.til files from the scenarios\ww2\scen0000\default\graphics\tile directory over to your \default\gamedata\graphics\tile directory. This is the tileset files used to determine tile and improvement graphics (i think)

Thanks! It is working now. I am working on Barrack now.
I use icon from Fort and try to edit SLIC (using the one from WW2) it is not working yet. The problem is with SLIC.
