It is quite simple, open your icon.dds file of your animal in Ur editting programme, edit Ur icon, make sure to make an alpha (transparency channel) for it like the original, then save it as .DDS 3 and name it correctly. Hope that helps

I dont quite get it? Fur icond? Do U mean four? If so, yes there are four boxes, top left and bottom rite being dark green and the rest yellow. Top left - when the button is left untouched Bottom left - when U hover Ur mouse on it Top rite - When clicked Bottom rite - when in campaigns, it is locked. So all these have to be editted for proper functioning of a button. So U have to edit all four. But instead of editting all four one by one, U first edit the first one (most preferably by taking a screen shot from Nifskope of the model, then cut it and paste) then copy the same image and move to each block and try to replicate the original icon in all ways, like the top rite has a glow and it is yellowish. And stuff. Finally U need an alpha, which makes the background transparent and the animal visible (white), refer to the original's to understand it more ![]() Plus, once U have typed something and clicked ADD REPLY, Ur post will surely appear shortly, so press the button only once avoiding multiple posts.
