PZ-NOOB Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I'm thinking of making a mod, but I'm not sure how create custom Item Icons. Any help will be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svarog Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Item icon images should be 32x32 or YZx32 or 32xYZ in resolution (YZ can be anything else, it looks best if image has 32 in height or width) and a .png with transparent background.The file itself needs to have Item_ prefix in the name ex. Item_Fruit.png and must be placed in the mod's media\textures folder.If you're asking about how to actually draw one then I can't help much other than give you a tip to just take some default PZ icon and modify it to suit your liking with some photo editing tool, personally I use Photoshop for that. Pixel art is not my forte, I have a problem with portraying perspective right.If you choose to modify a PZ sprite then PZ item icons are withing .pack files in Project Zomboid\media\texturepacks specifically UI.pack and UI2.pack to unpack them you'll need a tool like PZ Unpacker blindcoder and PZ-NOOB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blindcoder Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 You mean icon like water bottles, pans or such? First, you create the icon (32x32 or 64x64) and place it in <yourmod>/media/textures/Item_<yourshortcut>_<name>.png, for example:media/textures/Item_BC_gatorleg.png Then, in media/scripts/<mod>items.txt, you add it like this;item GatorLeg { Type = Food, Displayname = Alligator leg, Icon = Item_BC_gatorleg.png} PZ-NOOB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
