Action resources placeholders are shown after update 7 instead of the true icon

[elirasza]

Hello, the issue reported in #286 seems to have come back since patch 7. Mods adding custom resources like Mori's Astral Elves or Warlock Undead have their icons replaced by the red stars placeholders :

Adding back the patch 6 IUI Assets in a patch 7 IUI corrects the problem, but makes all non custom classes icon disappear :

Would there be a way to merge both mods in order to have both icons without anything missing ?

This is going to be up to the mod authors to update to the new methods since the Patch 7 update.

Do you have a quick migration process ? I would be eager to patch this but don't really know where to find the solution.

I was going to provide some resources, but I see from Nexus that you have figured it all out.

That is true ! For future people searching a solution, here it is. Not only have paths changed, but file names have too.

1. Move all files in the Public/Game/GUI/Assets/MODNAME subdirectory to its Public/Game/GUI/Assets parent folder.

2. The resources icons should be moved in a special directory for each type :

• OLDRESOURCEFILENAME_h.dds should be moved to a same level Highlight/OLDRESOURCEFILENAME_h.dds
• OLDRESOURCEFILENAME_missing.dds should be moved to a same level Missing/OLDRESOURCEFILENAME_missing.dds
• OLDRESOURCEFILENAME_spent.dds should be moved to a same level Used/OLDRESOURCEFILENAME_spent.dds
• OLDRESOURCEFILENAME_d should stay at the same place

3. All resource icons should be renamed to the exact resource name (found in the Public/MODNAME/ActionResourceDefinitions/ActionResourceDefinitions.lsx file, in the ActionResourceDefinition node, in the Name attribute), for instance ico_OLDRESOURCEFILENAME_h.dds will simply become RESOURCENAME.dds

4. All class icons should be renamed to the exact class name (found in the Public/MODNAME/Races/Races.lsx file, in the Race node, in the Name attribute), for instance OLDRACEFILENAME_h.dds will simply become RACENAME.dds

For instance, before :

Should become :

The solution was found partly with reverse-engineering, partly with understanding the https://github.com/TheRealDjmr/BG3ImprovedUI/tree/1.5.0.32/ImpUI_26922ba9-6018-5252-075d-7ff2ba6ed879/GUI/Assets folder structure and most importantly with the https://mod.io/g/baldursgate3/r/implementing-custom-action-resources-with-impui guide.
