This one is from freako:
If you want to use a different HUD icon for your weapon such as adding a weapon from an NPC that does not already have it's own hud icon:
Find the weapon icon you want to use by extracting streamedassets.big and looking for w_"weaponnamehere".bct
Extract your weapon's .big file
Place your w_weaponname.bct into the extracted weapon folder.
Open the bigfile.xml that was extracted with your weapon's .big and add the line
Repack the bigfile.xml file
Then in your data/datafile.big/items.txt items.txt entry for your custom weapon put the line:
For example:
Now follow the usual steps of putting the weapon in game.
The weapon should now have the hud icon you want, and not a black box.
If we already have this somewhere, let me know and i will move it.
If you have a question about this. I am not the person to ask. I am just writing this all down.
