Well as long as you know how to do it with NPatch, Rock Patch, or Ares (if it uses that method and when it is released) and you know how to edit SHPs, I can explain it pretty simple. You open up the Mouse.sha in SHP builder (this is my method since I don't have Photoshop) you make your edits (I'm not too pro on this, idk if you can add frames but whatever) you go to Options -> Preferences -> Loading & Saving -> Compression 1 Only then save your SHP (this is important for the game to not read it as a blurred mess) and add it to an Expand (I think). Done! (For adding new actions I suggest you get Npatch's MDK it has a tut on how to do that which afaik works with the Rock Patch too. Npatch also has how to make new cursors for units, though be weary of Npatchs many flaws.)

It's a little too easy to edit the mouse frames. It's generally replacing frames or adding new ones to the tail end if you're using a modders patch.

However, you need to DISABLE compression when you convert it over with XCC. You'll get an unusable garbled mess if you don't.

Well I am using Npatch, and I didn'y know you could open .sha in the SHP builder. I'll try it.
Thank you Smile
