I would like to edit the sprites that appear after someone died, they tell you who killed who with what gun. I just want to edit the 2 bayonet spires. What should I do to edit these? I have sprwiz and sprview, I found the 2 files with the original sprites.

( use sprview), export the sprite as a bmp. ( use photoshop or similar) change to 16 million colors, edit, return to 256 (8 bit) colors, (use sprwiz) import and save as yournewsprite

I havent used Photoshop in a while, how do I change from 16 million colors to 256 colors?
Once I complete the spite do I just put it into C:\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\wurz@viperclan.org\day of defeat\dod\sprites folder?

How would I create new sprites for certain weapons, like the Thompson only?

i have been looking for a link to download sprview but even on their site the link doesn't work

goto my site, then Day of Defeat, then mapping files,

what you need is there

to change colors try adjust or image, to change the color level shouljd be around there

once you load the bmp into Sprite wizard, the program that makes the sprites, also available my site, you turn it into a sprite and place it into you dod/sprites folder

to edit the weapon models look in your sprite folder for weapons1.spr and 2 and 3, those are the sprites displayed in the game, extract the sprites from the gcf file and you also get access to 4 and 5

edit the thompson weapon in the sprites I mentioned
