Second try...sorry

[Beeg]

Hi. Thanks so much for the reply.

I'm still having difficulty with the icon issue. By icon I mean the unit that actually shows during gameplay. In Mobhack it's the icon that appears in the bottom right of the Mobhack unit screen for an individual unit, not the LBM. Can you walk me through how to change that icon?

Thanks again.

I thank Beeg for asking this question, as it is something I am wrestling with as well. My own spin on the question is this: I seem to have no trouble replacing a vehicle icon with another vehicle icon, but it seems darn near impossible for me to replace an infantry icon with a vehicle icon. My simple question is - is this intentional, ie is this hard-coded into the system? Thanks!

Of course it is intentional!. Infantry is infantry and vehicles are vehicles. Infantry have 1-13 "crew" and draw from a special set of the SHP file-set. Vehicles have a picture (hull and maybe a turret). Guns have (variable) crew and a piece of artillery.

There is no reason to try to replace a 4 man team with a jeep in any case.

Yes it is very much intentional. I have NO idea why anyone would want to replace an infantry icon with a vehicle icon so maybe you need to do like I asked Beeg and explain EXACTLY what it is you want to do and why

You answered my question perfectly, so rather than continue the thread with my - as opposed to someone else's - questions, I will simply thank you for filling in the blank, as it were, and answering my question perfectly.

Changing the Icon in MOBHack simply involves changing the Icon,winter Icon and desert Icon numbers to the one you want then saving the changes by clicking on the red Check at the top then press Load/Save then when the next screen appears press Save again.

However, I suspect that's not what you want to know so lets go back to the beginning and tell me what EXACTLY it is you are trying to do
