Implement my own Tank Contour Icons

[GolKosh]

I made my own Tank Contour Icons and they can be downloaded with the Aslain Modpack or downloaded here.

 

Here's the thing I was wondering about. While the Modpack needs the big update (all modders are having a break/ Holiday!), is there a way for me to make my contour Icons usable in WOT?

 

In the beginning of the Icons I selected J1mbo's Contour Icons in the modpack and then replaced his icons with mine.... Problem solved and ready for use...

 

This is not possible anymore due to Action Script 3!

In the old days this was the directory to put them in: "res_mods\mods\shared_resources\xvm\res\contouricons\regular" but the files aren't there anymore. I searched them and found them on a different path: "res_mods\0.9.15.1\gui\maps\icons\contour\" but when I replaced the files with my own, it doesn't work. All I see then is on the start screen my Icons and in-game the J1mbo ones....

 

What could be the (temporary) solution for me? Any ideas and thoughts....

Hi

 

You need all Atlases and also icons.

I keep trying to use my own contour icons, but I really dont know where to start. I dont need tank icon maker, made my own icons....

 

If I replace my icons with someone elses it will show my icons, but ingame it doesn't. Could someone explain to me how it works? I know a bit html, css stuf (websites), but this is new to me.

That link made the world for me.... Look at the instruction for CCAtlas.rar

Do you don't external app to create atlas files, as long as you use tank icon maker beta v108. It saves to atlas. It was already linked and advised on this topic.

I really don't know how to use that Tank Icon maker program (and I tried, believe me). I use photoshop (actions) to create my icons, then CCAtlas to make me the atlas file. Really works great. Thats why I did it the way I did it now.....
