How to edit the effect icon in the bottom ?

Pret	What I mean is the tiny icons like 'slowed', 'vamp aura' under each unit's profile. When I edit a spell based on those, I can't find a way to change the effect icon plus the description over it as well. If anyone knows please tell :gsmile:

Draco	If you want to change it to another pre-made icon, just use the object editor and select the button art icon. That's simple. If you want to make your own, you need Image Extractor II and PSP 7 and/or Photoshop.

Pret	No no....what I said is not the commandbutton art. It's the effect icon art that shows up in the bottom of a unit profile automatically when a unit is under the effect of eg. brilliance aura, endurance aura. It seems I can't edit it via officialTFTWE, so I ask here.

Pesmerga	buff art. (Or am I mistaken?) I believe its unchangable in FT editor, dunno why blizzard restricted it. I have a feeling im wrong though. .. .

Pret	I think buff art is the animation of a buff spell that shown on a unit. Sample of an edited effect icon (my question: how to do that?) --

Pesmerga	Well, I knew what you were talking about. And the answer is its still impossible with only TF Editor. Edit the SLK in war3x MPQ

Pret	Oh thanks :gsmile: Do you mind telling which .slk is this information stored ?

Pesmerga	Look on the tuturial portion of this site. Look at a spell editing tuturial and the beginning part should tell you which files to extract and what files you need.
