Shiptype used for Icon
« on: July 19, 2011, 07:28:31 pm »
Just a dumb, quick question. What is the ship type graphic that is used for the icon for the game? I also noticed that the big icon and the small icon use different ship images, so what are both of them?

I need this because I need to set up a shortcut on my own. I am running on Linux now, and thus cannot use the default shortcuts the installer gives because I need fancy options to be passed to wine, and wine can't get the icon embedded in the exe file properly, so I need to use the actual image file that the game uses.

Well, prior to 4.0 it was using the icon for the Raider -- not their icon, actually, but literally their ship graphic, which is 32x32 anyhow.

Since 4.0, it's been using the full graphic of the Botnet Golem scaled down to 128x128.
