I hope this is the right place to ask for this, anyway I'm looking to make my own Cursor Splats (they are Like the Nuke Calldown Link: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/685/sc2nukesplat.jpg/, Mass Recall Splats Link: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/190/sc2massrecallsplat.jpg/) are they simple images in a .dds or .tga format or are they 3D models like units/actors .m3 format. I really hope they are .dds and/or .tga I can do those, models are beyond my skills still sadly. Thanks if you can help me with the know how of any size restrictions/requirements, and they need an alpha background i'm sure if .dds/.tga unless you want a visible square of a color/s.

Blizzard Fan since Starcraft. The Single Player story is AMAZING IMO, I can't wait for the Expansions. In Warcraft 3 I only enjoy the Custom Maps scene (& Blizzards...
It's pretty clearly a request for help. Should be in the Artist's Tavern.
From what I can remember on short notice, splats are stored as m3's. There should, however, be a texture for them as well somewhere in the cursors folder in one of the MPQs. More info when I get on a computer (gogo ipod :D)
Darn so it's not gonna be something i'll tackle then thanks Vortexx2010 & Jack RCDF for the info that there M3's, I still think it would be great to have a tutorial on how to make them. That way with models (or .dds if there Images and not models by some miracle for me lol) they can be setup. I doubt it will be exactly like importing models as they will be a splat and probably need some unique steps. Thanks everyone and sorry DrSuperEvil that it's not a tutorial more of request for one / and asking for help instead of providing it wasn't sure where this fit in to ask tough.

@DaFunk86: Go
They appear to be M3 files in the Data Editor, although I'm not sure how to add/manipulate them.
This is hardly a tutorial...
I advise improving on it fast or I shall be forced to move it
Yours Sincerely,
DrSuperEvil
