Grrr. Does anyone know of a way to get this graphic mod to show up in the Tutorials and default Scenarios without overwriting the game's existing Flag_Effects.dds file?

I didn't notice that until now.

Just a small update to clean up the graphics files using Gimp.

Sounds like a great addition for these poor old eyes!

Any help on where to place/use the file in the game?

Thanks

K,

Put them in the Mods file. Then activate them.

There is a text file that comes with the Mod explaining where to install it. The 'Enhanced Unit Icons' folder and all of its contents goes here:

C:\NorbSoftDev\Scourge of War - Gettysburg\Mods\
+ Enhanced Unit Icons

Then fire up the game, go to the Mods page, and click the text to enable the Mod. It works with Sandbox play and User Scenarios.
