I would like to change the looks of some weapons in game to make them look like the ones from beta. I prefer to not edit ART files since I'm not familiar with the format, also I prefer to use png files as patches. Probably I will need some sort of def file to let the SWP know which frame should be replaced with which image. Unfortunately I don't know anymore than that - can you help me?

Welcome to the forum!
I personally would edit the art files with edit art.
You would have to replace all the exact weapon tiles with the beta art.
Use xgroup or similar program to extract the .art files.
Proasm did have a way of using .png files and the .def file to add them into the game although so far I haven't got that to work and I'm not certain that way of doing it would also work in the original dos version.
If anyone else could elaborate that would be good as there is still plenty I don't know about the game.

I'm not certain that way of doing it would also work in the original dos version. I'm absolutely sure it wouldn't. The thing is I'm not much into ART, since I don't know how to set the proper tile index inside the file, also a concern is how to set the proper offset of weapon visible on the screen. |

If you're a fan... you're niche enough and withholding content is very poor taste.
