Umm, define what exactly you are trying to change with this common mod. There are various different common levels, such as the one for a loadscreen. Which are you trying to modify?

(Also, if you haven't, be sure to look in the FAQ) :google:

Look at the very first links in the "SWBF2 Modding" category and you will see it. All it takes is some basic human motor skills and the ability to solve problems. ;)

Look around in common.req and shell.req. Under the "texture" categories, look for names that include "con", "conquest", "1flag", "ctf", etc. in the name, and to make it even easier, it will probably have "icon" in the name as well. Once you think you know the name of the texture, look for it in the texture folders and edit it to your heart's desire once you find it.
