Give the palette a name (call it TS_Icon.pal). Then start Paint Shop Pro and load the icon you've just extracted. Do the same to a unit (most noticeably: Mmch.shp or Smech.shp). To get these, find an icon in the Conquer.mix and extract it as a PCX image. These can be found in the MIX files by extracting an image from the Conquer.mix file with XCC Mixer. The first thing you have to do is find the correct palettes.

For example, the Titan is cool, why not putting another one in it? I'll just copy and paste the info in the rules file and make a unit, and change some values. Instead of adding a new unit to Tiberian Sun, you'll copy the lines in the Rules.ini file to another location within that same Rules.ini file. (Firestorm owners can also use Firestrm.ini and ArtFS.ini.)

The easiest way for adding new units and structures to Tiberian Sun is by a method called 'cloning.' The only files required for this are the Rules.ini and Art.ini files. The next sections explain how to add new things in Tiberian Sun, like units and sounds. If you have Firestorm, you need to extract the Rules.ini, Firestrm.ini, Art.ini, ArtFS.ini, Conquer.mix, Sounds01.mix and Sound01.mix files from the Expand01.mix file. If you have Tiberian Sun without Firestorm, you need to extract the Rules.ini, Art.ini, Conquer.mix, Sounds.mix and Sound.ini files from the TibSun.mix file. If you don't have one or more of the above programs, then you can download them from the Internet.
