I think I have a problem with useing Icons

I imported alot of icons and now some of my buildings are not showing up on the workers builder list.

Any idea why this is happening?

I have tryed recreating a new building to see if that would fix it and change the icons but that did not fix anything.

None at all. No green boxes.

you need to correct the path of your imported icons.

You have to "overwrite" the original Icon paths, both DISBTN and BTN ..

Although.. I have the same problem. But it's sometimes it shows up the green box.. wich I hate so badly.. hehe!

ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNAbility_Multi_Shot.blp
ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNArrow.blp

And so on...

thats what all the imported icons path look like.

Yet, I still do not get the buildings to show up in the builders list. Remember, there are no green boxes, there is just no icon at all and yet the building is set to be built by a worker because I have checked it one million times.

Could it just be the map?
lol...

Okay, check this shit out...

Delete Icon...
Delete Icon...
Delete Icon...
Delete Icon...
All Icons and all imported shit is deleted in the "Imported Manager".

I boot up the game...
Train worker...

Click Buildering list...

Same stupid shit... :evil: :evil: :evil: No Lumber Building and a Medic center. No green boxes, just no icons appearing at all. I get 5 icons do appear and they are Shipyard, Governor's house, Stone Craftsman, House and Blacksmith. It is set to build 2 more buildings but they are just not appearing. It have to be the stupid map ! lol

Oh and in which by the way...I have reset all settings in the "Custom Gameplay Constants" and "Game Interface". Still not helping...

I did this little test on something, could it be just that the icon is appearing but just under another icon slot box? Because I added the "Siege Engineer" building and it was in its orginal slot box and it appeard. Is there something that I have to do to give the building its own slot box?

Heres another test...

Removed all structures and added just one.

The lumber mill. The game did say there was a structure that could be built but there was no icon in the structure list for the peasant. So, I am confuesd and I am out of ideas what to do next besides scrap the whole mod tech tree and start over (((Which I do not want to do)))

send map with imported icons to me ([email protected]) or something and i will try to figure out what's going on
#12
Well, i had the same problem with icon I made, cuz I needed it for the moment.

Paths were OK, everything set up, but in game icon is void (even no green boxes). Tried hundreds times.

Finally I imported it as TGA not BLP...

and worked 8)

Created a fresh new map, works fine. All buildings show up, so it have to be something to do with the icons. I am guessing I did something wrong with the icons and I don't know how to fix this.

I would like to thank you all for your help and wish for you to keep on helping us all when needed. This damn problem is now finaly fixed, (I feel so STUPID and did not think of this before... The "Techtree Properties" had to been defalted.

This is true...It pays off when you keep at it.
