Dune 2 .SHP files

MrFlibble

Do you know of any tools that allow to edit and/or create new SHP files for Dune 2? The SHPs created with XCC Mixer seem not to work for Dune 2, they're for C&C series...

Do you think those SHP's are related?
Panzer Generals also had SHP's - and also the different kind

well considering Dune II is a WW game, there is quite chance.

I know you can open Dune II SHPs with XCC, but you can't convert TO it.

Which is a real pity, because it means I can't mod the C&C1 mouse cursor - it's in Dune II SHP format >_<

As it looks, Dune 2 WSA files are quite close to C&C SHPs (in their structure), and Dune 2 SHP are different. However, raw C&C SHPs are not recognized by Dune 2 as WSAs either.

I'll try doing more research on this in my spare time, but alas, I'm no programmer...
