If you used StarForge, you can see that you can place "Overlays", such as that of doodads and spells. I tried placing some, but a lot of them made SC crash. So I had an idea: Why not compile a list of placeable overlays? I think that'd be cool to have and takes the hastle out of testing every cool-looking overlay. If you want to take part in the project AIM me: vbVanguard. :)

Isn't the overlay, the sprites properties?
Right now, I only use the sprites for the looks.
The nuke target, pylon aura, stuff like that.

I believe Clokr already made such a list. I'll try and dig it out somewhere...

I know for a fact that all doodads do not crash, and I *think* that any sprite of a unit that is disable-able will not crash.

When I said "placeable overlays", I meant overlays that don't crash StarCraft. Some overlays like the white circle make StarCraft crash, while the doodads don't. I wanted to make a list of the overlays that DON'T crash. :)

Did you look at the file I attached?

I suppose I should have told you how to use it - in StarForge's data folder, back up your sprites.lst file (just rename it) and then put the sprites.lst from the attachment in the data folder. It will now show a ** on sprites that will crash starcraft.
