Re: Icon0099.shp
I heartily agree, the problem is the developers seem to view our efforts as thoroughly trivial and seemingly think they are not worth supporting, hence they refuse to produce dedicated extra space which forces those of us with lots of icons and big plans further and further into a corner. A corner which will become progressively tighter and force our work into obsolesence.
If Don and the gang had not wanted us to mod the game then why were all those things, previously mentioned, freely available to us in the end product? CH LANDA's Shape editor of course could have been gotten hold of, but that still doesn't explain the two template icon files and the other stuff.
Wouldn't it make more sense to create a surplus of X thousand Icons for the modding community to play around on top of what there is already? I very much doubt they would all get used up by the game itself, if enough distance was put between game units and modded ones, or at least if the potential for distance was there.
Its not like a request to re-invent the wheel is being made.

Re: Icon0099.shp
Although, as is often the case it seems to be being treated as such.

Re: Icon0099.shp
I feel like if it was as simple as just changing a single number in the code, a very large number would've been picked from the start. There has to be a reason why this wasn't done from the start, and I imagine the process of changing the number and potentially of formatting the requisite icon files, to be tedious and lengthy.

Re: Icon0099.shp
Good idea with that ,,Mod Advisory" btw. Good thing I followed those exact guidelines... oh wait, still doesn't help us with the limited space problem.
