Green Icon Fix

[Shados]

Green Icon Problem
Occaisonally when using custom icons a flouro green square will appear instead of your icon, this green icon is what Warcraft III shows when it can't find the icon. Often you will get a green default icon when Warcraft III attempts to show the disabled version of an icon you've imported and cannot find it, this could be because you haven't imported a disabled version of the icon or simply because your icons aren't named correctly.

Solution
The problem should be solved if you import both a enabled and a disabled version of the icon (Or two copies of the enabled icon (One named as a the disabled version should be) if you don't have a disabled version), and if both of them are correctly named.
The enabled version of the icon should be named:

ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTN[COLOR="Red"]z[/COLOR].blp

The disabled version of the icon should be named:

ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled\DISBTN[COLOR="Red"]z[/COLOR].blp

Where 'z' is the name of your icon (z must be the same for both copies of the icon).


If something is difficult to understand or you have any questions, please post.

I'm sorry Shados, but you're not authorized/allowed to approve tutorials.
We appologize for not making this clear to you.

Anyway Ralle, will probaly include this within his icon tutorial.

...Err, I didn't approve this Archian, I put it into Tutorial Submission. If it was in the tutorials section then someone else approved it...

You really should do your research before making such posts

Ralle told me that he had approved only one :S

EDIT:

Damnit ppl, that's why you have to write something like "I approve" or "Apporved" when you eventually do approve

Ok well just checked, and it seams that this thread has been moved around quite a bit

Shados 20:15, 26th Oct 2006 Thread moved with redirect to 'Tutorials'.

To lazy to take screenshot again, but yep it says in the log that Shados moved this thread to tutorials.
