Title: Icons
Post by: Ithien on July 13, 2003, 03:52 AM
Anyone know where i can get the icons for starcraft/brood war. The "star" ones.
1 win = halve star
2 win = one star
3 win = star / halve or star
etc.

I can think of two ways. Either extract them from their MPQ file, or take a screenshot and manually extract the icons.

Or download them from bnet... 'icons.bni'
Have a search on this board, it's been discussed before

[EDIT] Decided to add the name of the file

I just download icons_STAR.bni from Battle.net using DarkMinion's Battle.net File Downloader (http://botdev.valhallalegends.com/files/fdsrc.zip) and viewed it using Skywing's Icon Viewer (http://botdev.valhallalegends.com/files/iconview.zip). There are only KBK icons in this file; the icons that Ithien is looking for are not there. I believe the icons he is looking for are stored in one of the MPQs used by Starcraft.

You can download this file here:

Remember that BrooDat.mpq and StarDat.mpq generally contain data from the CD version.  patch_rt.mpq will have the most recent (as in, updated by a patch) versions -- this MPQ has a higher priority than BrooDat/StarDat, so the game will check it first for a file before falling back to BrooDat/StarDat.
