Anyway to convert TD tmp into png?
I'm looking for solution to extract Tiberian dawn tileset into png in order to use as template for making new terrain for my Openra mod but seem like XCC mixer can't do it. QUICK_EDIT
interesting. XCC Mixer can show them (even though only in separate tiles and not how they are actually combined), but indeed has no option "copy to png"
I think your best chance is to take one of the many map editors, create an example map with all tiles in it, then take a screenshot of the map in the editor.
If your monitor resolution is high enough to show the entire map, you may even get the entire tileset in a single image, which could speed up further image edits (e.g. upscale)
Bittah Commander may have an idea as well, since he had to convert them all into TS isometric tiles for DTA. _________________ SHP Artist of Twisted Insurrection: Nod buildings

I think the only way you can convert Tiberian Dawn tilesets into a editable image is with an old program pack called Mix Manager Version 3.51 (MM351.ZIP) and DOS Box.
You will need to use the TMP2PCX.exe using command line. XCC Mixer and print screen may be faster TMP2PCX.exe depending on what you are doing. _________________

You can also use OpenRA btw. Pretty sure OpenRA.Utility cnc --png would do the trick. _________________ "If you didn't get angry and mad and frustrated, that means you don't care about the end result, and are doing something wrong." - Greg Kroah-Hartman
