Has anyone tried the customizung Icons for an individual team feature yet?
I've had a go but am obviously doing something wrong.
What did you do to get it working? |

Well I was using claw players for my clawed chaos warriors and Beast men at some point. Ltes take CWs for an example. there are 4 of them on your team. #1 #2 #3 #4 lets say that #3 have a calw and you want to use a CW with a claw icon for him as he has a claw. Your icon file might look like this
WARRIOR=cwarrior1.gif
WARRIOR=cwarrior2.gif
WARRIOR=cwarrior3.gif
WARRIOR=cwarrior4.gif
so if you change the picture of cw #3 in your icon picture (just rename them) so that picture #3 has a claw then it should show up when you play as the CW with the calw.
This system is far from perfect. if you play other chaos one of there icons (#3) will also be shown with a calw. but it is the best I foud I can do. unless we get access to change the name of the player possition as that is what the icons are bound to. |

I've set up custom icons for my SWL team: We Fink Wer Orks. Managed to get it working fine on my system, not sure if anyone else has used them though.
Edit: The icons can be found here (they are also linked from the team bio). |

Question: when you coach Orcs in (say) Ranked, do you see regular orc icons or the custom ones? |

Normal ones - unless the players on those teams have the same names as the players on my amazon team. |

To get different icons from the standard ones, you have to add into the icon file a player list then include the player name and the gif link example :
[PLAYERS]
MOOTABA=moranion.gif
In this example the player named MOOTABA will appear with moranion's icon |

Sorry. My question was (or was meant to be):
If you coach AMAZONS in ranked, do you see regular amazon pics or your custom ones? |

I assumed that's what you meant, so the answer is still the same
Download them and try them out (in standalone i guess) - you have to add to the [PLAYERS] section in the ini file, so if any other team has players with exactly the same name as one of my players, then yes, i'll see the wrong icons... but it does mean that i don't get mightly confused by having two teams with the same colours/icons if I have to play against amazons |
