"Selection Box" Texture

[quraji]

Does anyone know the name/path of the texture used for the "selection box"? (I'm referring to the green box that appears when you click the ground and drag your mouse)

Thanks!

i think you'll need to change it in the MPQ

I think you misunderstood, I'm trying to find the path of that texture so I can overwrite it. So far I haven't had any luck.

What I use.

EDIT: I use this to browse the MPQ file so that you can find file locations.

After running the application choose windows tab. Click MPQ Browser.
In the new window select file and choose one of the War3 .mpq presets. Explore

I'm already searching for it with a model/texture viewer. I've searched through all of the UI related textures without finding an obvious match, so I've been testing textures that might be it (by exporting them, editing them and importing them into the map and overwriting the original), but so far I've had no luck. Basically anything green is a target ^.^

I wasn't posting asking for help on how to find it, but rather was asking if anyone already knew or had a hunch

K i'll join the hunt

EDIT:
Found this under UI\SkinMetaData.slk

i055 EscMenuBackground Profile CustomSkin 0 WESTRING_SKINVAL_I055

Thats probably "World Editor" String

Got it.
UI\Widgets\EscMenu\Human\human-options-menu-background.blp

That's not it. To be completely clear here's a picture.

Ok. That is most likely hard coded. I'll search around.

Edit:
Found

Not it. Also, Image is white.

My best guess is that it is either in Storm.dll or is not specified, hence the green selection tool.

 

[quraji]

That's not it either (I even tested it before). It doesn't look like it's in there, which is sad since almost every other texture is replaceable

Probably it aint even a texture. Just ... green pixels?
Maybe a color value for that green color or something.

Kinda sad, though. It would be cool to edit that stuff too.

Probably is the color of unknown objects. Best I would be able to do is change the system files so that it would change the color on my pc.
