For Animation

pen XCC Mixer, select an exising animation, be shure that it is displayed in Animation Palette ( Ctrl+P, Red Alert 2 Mix -> ANIM.PAL ), convert it to PCX ( right click on it ->"Copy as PCX" ), then edit those PCXs with an image editor ( you can create more images or resize them, just keep the background color the same ), rename all the PCX, like Mynewanim #### ( where #### are numbers, starting with 0000 -the first frame, 0001- the second one, 0002... you get the point ), then select ALL PCX in XCC Mixer, right-click them and "copy as
SHP ( TS )" and you have a new animation
Now use XCC Mix editor to insert this SHP inside a Mix, and it's all done.
The same goes for soldiers ( use UNITSNO or another UNIT palette, and get ready to create about 2-3-400 images ), for SHP units, or for buildings
and building animations.
