It's really ugly right now, im working it though to be a little smoother
it may end up being you have to type the name of the icon you want and/or editing a mapping file for them
im still trying to figure the best way to do it as a customizer
Please post bugs here. The only icon pack is Gatherer, and the only 2 icons in that pack are Rich Throium, and Un'goro power crystals.
Just tried it out ... some thoughts, and a problem.
Thoughts first
- what I wished was a way to add icons, not to replace exisiting once
- isn't there a way to do it with just adding 1 .lua, the icon files and adding that .lua to the .toc? editing of 2 files makes it difficult to spread icon packs around
Now, the problem: I grabbed MetaMap from wowi to get the mapnotes icon files, renamed them nicely to MapNotes-Icon0.tga to 7, copied them to the Cartographer_Icons\Icons folder ... added
yes I do. We replace a texture with the override, however those 8 raid icons have some attributes set cause in reality its a single texture with defined spots got all the corners so thats why it was distorted. with my new iconpack idea.. instead of replacing those you can jsut add some new ones .. problem solved
also part of the restrucruring in thinking of, would change the menu .. it would simply have an enable/disable a pack instead of picking and choosing icons from the pack

And how would i do if i want to change some icons?
Okay, next question, how do i change that icon to another one? (want to user the one from "gatherer")
That would be awsome *hugs*
Cool, sounds like I can stop my whining about those ugly raidicons for mapnotes soon? ;-)

to the "RegisterTranslations" part of addon.lua
added
["mapnotes_pack"] = { ["Star"] = "Interface\\Addons\\Cartographer_Icons\\icons\\MapNotes-Icon0", ["Skull"] = "Interface\\Addons\\Cartographer_Icons\\icons\\MapNotes-Icon1", ["Moon"] = "Interface\\Addons\\Cartographer_Icons\\icons\\MapNotes-Icon2", ["Circle"] = "Interface\\Addons\\Cartographer_Icons\\icons\\MapNotes-Icon3", ["Diamond"] = "Interface\\Addons\\Cartographer_Icons\\icons\\MapNotes-Icon4", ["Triangle"] = "Interface\\Addons\\Cartographer_Icons\\icons\\MapNotes-Icon5", ["Square"] = "Interface\\Addons\\Cartographer_Icons\\icons\\MapNotes-Icon6", ["Cross"] = "Interface\\Addons\\Cartographer_Icons\\icons\\MapNotes-Icon7", },to "Cartographer_Icons.custom" in icon.lua
Got them nicely in the menu (Screen1) ... but when enabling them, the icons are totally distored (see Screen2)
ps: I think this modul deserves it's own topic... ;-)
Icons to act as just the manager, and have each icon pack be its own mod.
so a new icon pack would be:
a .toc file
a .lua file
and your icons
* sample of the lua pack.lua *
local L = AceLibrary("AceLocale-2.2"):new("my icon pack name") L:RegisterTranslations("enUS", function() return { ["Gatherer Iconpack"] = true, ["Rich Thorium"] = true, ["Crystal"] = "Un'Goro Power Crystal", } end) local pack = AceLibrary("AceAddon-2.0"):new() function pack:OnInitialize() Cartographer_Icons:RegisterPack('pack name',L["Gatherer Iconpack"]) Cartographer_Icons:RegisterOverride('pack name','icon','texture path') Cartographer_Icons:RegisterNewIcon('pack name','icon',L["icon"],'texture path') endthis would allow for a very simplified way to add/replace icons and you could use any existing pack as a start point
