Are you kidding me?!
The current tools for it is hardly impressive and it is indeed a hassle to create new-bif/buf stuff for MTW1 (and STW1). I don't think many people understand that. Make it work on Windows, I will then install Gimp and give this a serious try. No BS, I could very well be your tester. A key factor will be to make sure the various palettes stays intact and this in the saved results as well, and you should focus on making that stuff work properly with the game. Then this tool will probably offer a very serious alternative to the already existing tools. I fail to see how that is somehow a bad thing.
Make it work for Windows, Make the palettes stay put (the colour-indexes). I have yet to find the tools that can handle both castle and army-pieces correctly (If anybody knows these tools and where I can get them, then PLEASE post it!). As I understand it, Barocca (former admin) had some tool or magic that could pull it off - however he left the boards in 2008(?) after an disagreement with Tosa and was never seen here ever since (I don't know the details for it). If I had that tool he had, or the ones used for HTW or NTW (for MTW), I certainly would tinker and make changes on both castles and army-pieces (and the ships too) as well for Redux. Make no mistake about it.
