[COMMUNITY] Icon Hunt
« on: October 04, 2014, 04:39:43 pm »
As I am sure you will have noticed there are many items that use generic icons such as blue closed book or sack. I ask you all to help me find these and more appropriate alternatives. For this I need 2 things from you:
  • The item with a generic icon.
    • The name of icon to be used
    • or another item that uses the intended icon

For those who wish to look at the icons they can be found in planeshift/art/materials.zip most icon files end _icon.dds. You will need a dds viewer or dds thumbnail viewer. Finding other items that use the intended icon is also very helpful.

There are fixes for mace/hammer, leather parts and some crafting manual icons due soon. Lets see if together we can add to this list.

I already did this once, long ago ... most probably there are many new items now, with not yet assigned specific icons.

For the MAC users : there is a fine little plugin that permit us to open and view the .dds files : XnViewMp. It's free and small. My links are in french but you can find it easily just typing "XnViewMP MAC" on google.
