Reforgerator v1.3.1 (zip password: makkad) (Binary)

Update.

#### 1.2.0 - 19, August 2025
  • Added support for preserving the original output size, allowing files to be saved in their native dimensions.
  • Introduced a option for selecting the Classic HD 2.0 style, alongside the existing Classic SD and Reforged HD styles.
  • Added configuration settings to control desaturation and contrast reduction for Disabled icons in the Reforged HD style via the config file. The default contrast value has been adjusted from 0.90 to 0.82.
  • Added an extra option to apply Hero Glow (the effect used in icons of standard heroes) for Classic graphics.
  • Enabled the use of an extra black border overlay for any style.
  • Added a new Autocast icon for Classic SD (128x128 and 256x256). Thanks to Narga163 for providing the icon.
 
Very interesting. I been using Button Manager and BLP.lab for some time now.. i will give this a go and see how it does with quality standards. Being said, i have had issues with my icons going through Button Manager and they loose there quality even though the settings are all correct. So then, i would have to use BLP.lab as well. And, it is very time consuming.. so, maybe this will be a better alternative well see..

The bigger question i had to ask is , is this MAC compatible? because i make my icons on mac and then transfer them too a PC when uploading so it would be nice if it is.. if not its alright.

Update.

1.3.0 - 16, November 2025​

  • Added support for custom backgrounds, allowing users to select and apply their own background images, which are automatically placed behind input images that contain transparent pixels (alpha channel). Custom backgrounds are stored in the \frames\custom_backgrounds directory.
  • Added the “Keep Location” output option, enabling generated files to be saved directly into the same directory as their source files. This works for both individual file processing and folder-based batch operations.
  • Added a new option to save files using a user-defined output size.
  • Updated the autocast icon for the Classic SD style with new 128×128 and 256×256 versions created by thehuntress16. The previous icon by Narga163 remains available in the custom frames section.

Thanks for a fast and convenient tool, @Makkad!

I've noticed that after the conversion of an item which name starts with "N", the output item with the 'BTN' prefix consumes this very letter:

Noticed that because I had a big list of such items 🙂
Thanks for the report! I will try to fix that bug soon!



UPDATE. The bug was fixed in version 1.3.1.

Why dont you just download this one? or these can help as well.. Just simply hit the download button and then compress the file and it should open properly on windows.

And, if you have trouble uploading or making an icon into the 64x64 size format into .blp format check my links on my signature below.
