Editing Monster and Hero Icons

Hello all,

Is there a guide to editing Monster and Hero Icons as I would like to import my own into the game?

If there is not a guide please could someone confrim which of the files relate to the icons (.xdb possibly?), where do they sit in the .pak file structure and what software (plugin or app) do I need to edit them?

Cheers,

Laz

The icons of the "old" creatures are located at:

data.pak/Textures/Interface/CombatArena/Faces/*FactionName*

You need in fact 4 icons, a 32x32, 55x55, 64x64 and 128x128.

Format: .dds, A8R8G8B8 (or 8888, as it's called in the .xdb files)

Hello NeoCat1993,

Excellent I have found the creature icons, do you know the file path for the Heroes as I still cannot seem to find it?

data.pak/Textures/Icons/Heroes/*FactionName*

Heroes have only a 128x128 .dds, A8R8G8B8.

The Icons of the newer Heroes are at: data.pak/UI/H5A1 orH5A2/Icons/Heroes/Portrets128x128
Same format as the others.

Hello NeoCat1993,

I have found and extracted the images I want to edit, but when I try to save my amended copy it says "all Alpha information will be lost" and only saves half the image do you know why this is?

Thanks for your help,

Laz

Hm... Try Paint.net, it can save your images in the correct format, but sometimes it has problems opening the old icons
