- bash
- Imagemagick (recent, might need -fx)
- for animated gifs or icons from the editor: ffmpeg and gifsicle
- Extract btn-unit* (and all files from special cases below) from base.MPQ and throw them in units/dds/
cd units && bash gen.sh <size>- profit.
There are no unit buttons for buildings, so you should also copy the following files:
btn-building-terran-planetaryfortress.dds btn-building-protoss-photoncannon.dds btn-building-terran-bunker.dds btn-building-zerg-spinecrawler.dds btn-building-zerg-sporecrawler.dds btn-building-terran-autoturret.dds btn-building-terran-missileturret.dds btn-building-zerg-nydusworm.dds
Note: they're all already there - these copying instructions are for updates, whenever necessary.
Not that it will matter, but I'd recommend using something like midnight commander or total commander to simply exctract every texture and match the two directories (Shift+F2 in total commander) or just write a quick shellscript (which I didn't have to, because I have the awesome total commander on windows.)
