I have the buildings in Xiff form...what and how do I convert them to,so I can edit them in PSP?

[jimmy_jo]

uhh...xcc mixer (how u normally convert bits for ra2) select the file then choose 'convert as php

[OpticPast]

What folder is the buildings located in?,b/c It wont lemme use a desktop folder :/

Look closely at the XCC windows, you will see 2 pane borders right next to each other... separate them to find another pane.

Right-click the SHP in one pane and select 'copy as PCX' and the PCX images will be written to the directory that's active in the other pane...

I found the second panel,but where are all the default buildings?,[IE airport],
b/c when I go to XCC object extractor,I choose the destination and extract,they all come out .XIF in the certain folder, and when I find them again in XCC mixer,I try to conert as PCX but it doesn;t give me that option :cry:

File>Find will find all instances of what you are looking for. Use wildcards (* and ?) so you find everything... like for the airport look for c?airp.shp

Don't use the object extractor, use the mixer like I described.

The Object extractor turns extracts into a XIF file, which is a file format used by XCC Mixer for data dumps. For what Olaf told me, they can be read by XCC Mixer, and extracted. I never tried to do it though.

This has ALWAYS worked for me:

0) Make sure you have a working version of xcc mixer.
1) Click on the .shp file on the left sidebar. If you do this right, you should see all of the .shp's frames on the right.
2) Right-click on the .shp file.
3) In the popup menu, select "Copy as PCX". Not "COPY as PCX (Single)", just "Copy as PCX."
4) Use Windows Explorer to go to the folder where XCC mixer is instaled.
5) Open up your .pcx files.
