I am working on creating some new unit icons for a mod, I found the ICONLIST.TXT ad ICONS.GP but there seems to be another file I am missing.  Do any of you know what it is?

Just those 2 really, and then ofcourse the respective md /nds upgrade section to call on the icon itself.

Something not working?

I unpacked the ICONS.GP file, added my icons, changed the .lst and then repacked it.  Then changed the unit MD file and the ICONLIST and packed it into a patch file.  In game however the unit icon square is empty, when I replaced one of my icons with a different one, the icon was still empty in game, and when I replaced one of the FB icons with mine and told the unit MD to use it, the old FB icon showed instead of the new one.

Ok, apparently the game was just ignoring my altered ICONS.GP because it was reading it after the unit MDs.  I put it in a mods file and everything works now.
