Variety and Rebalance Overhaul Icon Pack

Description
Variety and Rebalance Overhaul Icon Pack
X4 Foundations 5.0 & 5.10 Update Ready
Supports Split, CoH & ToA DLC.
  • Optional X4 XR ShipPack Mod Support.
  • Optional Split Tiger - XL Battleship (VRO) Support.
  • Optional DeadAir Factions + DeadAirShips Support.
  • Works with VRO or VRO Lite by DeadAir.
Tested with VRO 3.3 for ToA

Inspired by X:Rebirth Icon mod, this mod replaces the ships and some stations in the galaxy map with Custom X:Rebirth and hand curated and design's that I have created.

  • Various Ship Roles now have Role exclusive icons to represent them, no longer is every ship just a triangle anymore! Bomber, heavy-fighter, scout, frigate, destroyer, carrier, re-supply, Battleship, you name it all classes have stylised icon
  • Faction Exclusives. Xen and Khak have totally unique icon themes to represent them! Other factions still use standardised design.
  • Icons are sized to match their class no two classes or roles are exactly the same size on the map.


    If you DO NOT USE VRO then you want the version below not this one!

Check out the "Icon Fixes for 7.10" Thread if anyone is interested in fixing this mod a bit :)

Is there a Non VRO version of this?

Any plans on updating this?

Whelp, I attempted to change things to be compatible for personal use at least, and the changes didn't take effect just adding the new paths to your icons.xml using your textures to replace >< Something about modding X series games has never clicked with me using xml patching and packing and unpacking .cat files and such. Frustratingly rarely works out for me, and don't know why. I concede defeat lol Would love to see it updated someday though, but understand if you've moved on at this point. I shall attempt to get used to vanilla icons for the time being

Alrighty, well, I don't know how I didn't notice at first, but if i'm not mistaken it looks like they added a "ship type" section in addition to the "ship icons" texture paths within the libraries/icons.xml. As well as something like 46 new textures to ...gui/textures/shipicons . So I suppose they expanded the ship icons on the map for 7.00? I honestly have used this mod for so long I couldn't even tell if they did or not just by looking, and missed it in the patch notes. So looks like a case of having more paths that would have to be defined and replaced with this mods' textures I suppose

I tried disabling every mod except this mod and VRO, downloaded and installed the no Timelines version of VRO, and disabled the Timelines DLC itself and the icons are still only partially working with the VRO assets dependency removed. So I assume something perhaps did change with the base game 7.00 update that is preventing it from working completely. I'm not sure exactly what that may have been so far though, unfortunately

UPDATE WHEN???????

The file structures/naming doesn't seem to have changed any from what I can tell looking at the .cat files with the X Catalog Tool, and no luck further messing around with dependencies. I'm far from adept at analyzing X4's files and mods though. Would love to hear from anyone else's experience and if it is all working properly for you or not on version 7.00+ with new Timelines DLC to see if it's just on my end somewhere

hmm, I used to be able to get all the icons to work again after VRO split into base mod and assets separately for 6.00 by removing the VRO_assets dependency line in the base VRO content.xml for whatever reason, but now with 7.00 it only fixes about half the icons unfortunately. In many cases it seems to only be certain ships within classes that show as vanilla, and others as intended with the mod. Mixed bag overall, though it seems that all heavy fighters and scouts now show as their vanilla icons. Not sure what has changed to cause that, but would love to figure it out

No idea if still works, it is very possible that VRO or the game has changed some names or something and broken the references
