Editing .vga files

[Squire]

I'd like to edit the .vga files. Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks

-download the tools from our download page
-download the photoshop plugin
-use expack (in the tools) to extract the files from the *.vga file.
-rename all the *.u7o files to *.shp
-use the photoshop plugin in either Photoshop or PaintShopPro
-some shapes (*.shp files) have multiple frames for those you need splitshp
(later you need to put them back together with splitshp).
-edit the files
-use expack to build the vga file again (expack is a bit documented in the tools archive). Make a backup of your original file

of course if you are running a different OS than Windows you have to build the tools for yourself (from the latest source preferably) and maybe you have to use the gimp plugin then.
