Add icons for selected Adventure Game Studio's games + Bonus icons #304
Comments
I was referring to a task list we could ''check" wenn an icon is added. Peronally, why close the old issue |
Why I close the issue #303? |
|
A few things for this Issue
|
But it's because i liked those games (the non AGS and i like to add icons for own use. Since several of them not available yet on the official scummvm icon, why not i shared those icons here. |
|
No I don't think I understand - sry :-(. In your latest zip are only ags* games, so this shouldn't be of concern now :-) If you want a new/updated icon for "bladerunner-bladerunner-final" (just an example). Pls open a new iusse :-) |
|
I would add
But I added alpha transparency to all of them. Pls have a look (discussion in discord :-) ) |
I included the Blade Runner icon in the separate zip called alt means "alternative" alone with other non ags icons. So users can choose to use this instead of the one in the official icons pack. |
|
If you create new issues per game (even ags) we could link them to the task list above (better way would be add the game to the task list and use the button "covert to issue") We don't have a concept for "alternative" icons - maybe this would be a feature request / an idee you could ask about in the discord channel? The icon files are zips - so changing a game icon to a personal favorite is not so diffcult. |
Do you mean, per engine? |
I have a better idea, |
In fact, if anybody want to use the alternative icons, like this blade runner, they just need to put the gui-icons-alt.dat to the icons path they had set along with other icons pack. No need to change anything to the official icons pack. The GUI will automatically use the alternative version instead. Just try it. Because gui-icons-"any letter".dat will considered the newest one than gui-icons-"any number".dat. |
I DO want that my version of Blade Runner icon to be use in the official scummvm packs. |
|
The question is (for me) do we have a new game id dor the latest remake?
|
Tell me they're not similar. This is taken from the official icon packs Should I disscuss this on dischord? |
|
i wasn't precise The icons (we have ) are 100% identical. But we have 2 gameIds. One for the standard version and one for the 'final' version. But the final version was used before the current remake for the gog version. The question: Are you refering to the gog version or to the new remake (2022) |
Dude, i don't think this game has anything to do with the 2022 remake of Blade Runner. That is a different game and only run on newer device like switch. |
Done. I had removed icons for other engines from the alt.zip and only left 3 icons, and primordia icon has been changed. Please have a look when you have time. Thank you. |
About the task list you made above, do i need to check them or just you. I'm little confused. Because i already uploaded my icons right? Only this time to Drive. |
Take a look at these: So what do you think? |
Technically it's the same game. The original game had some parts cut for various reasons, but the ScummVM developers managed to recover those parts (hence the "restored content"). However the restored version is not as stable as the other and the savegames aren't interchangeable, so instead of just a checkbox in the game options it got a different id. |
Adding subtitle that it had restored contents is ridiculous. They should give it different icon. |
Why is it ridiculous? Director's cut / GOTY versions usually use the same boxart, this is a similar situation. It's a matter of preference i guess. |
|
It's called in my opinion. So don't take it personal. |
|
Discussing whether or not ScummVM should have two game ids for Blade Runner ( Maybe it would be better to move Blade Runner to a separate issue and we could discuss it individually? |
Yeah, i think I should. I'll make separate issue for Blade Runner. |
|
As far as I can the the only "missing" icons (we have not added so far) are icons without text/title. On the other hand as far as I know all our icons have a text/title. Could you add a title to this last ones? |
|
I'll see if I can complete/improve the remaining icons so we can eventually close this |
|
Where is the "Enclosure" icon? |
|
Uploaded 6 icons, just 3 to go (plus one MIA) |
|
"Da New Guys" and "Da New Guys: Day of The Jackass" are two different games. |
|
Uploaded superego and beyondhorizon (not too happy with this one, though) I suggest keeping the issue open to see if @DavidAriyan comments about the "Enclosure" icon, then it can be closed |
The Enclosure game is not ags I'm aware back then someone informed me about it. Consider it as part of the bonus icons. |
|
Ok, then I think the issue can be closed, as this tasklist is complete |
The Scummvm GUI finally released. I've been so excited about this. Wanna see my favorites classic games on scummvm with it's cover art displayed is what I always looking for.
The scummvm's games library is HUGE. And the icons in the packs released are not available for all games off course. Many lesser known games still have their icons blank.
So i decided to ask the developer via email. And thanks to him, I finally figure it out how to make my custom icons and i want to submit it for scummvm too if possible.
The main focused here to complete the icons for available games created with Adventure Game Studio's engine (AGS).
I've been big fans of adventure, mystery, horror games or movies so many icons here are based on my personal likings.
Many of these hidden gems works fine on scummvm, some crash, some of them have really low fps render them unplayable. But off course I still hope someday scummvm team will make them playable, like Blade Runner a game that i never thought will play on phone.
The source of all the icons is mainly: google search.
I googled them for majority of them. Some are in game screenshot, and some are pure custom.
I used the image enhancer app for each of them.
Doing some color corrections and some editing here and there. I've always avoid make the icons looks the same as the source.
I'll try add more icons when i found a game interesting.
I also added non AGS games icons because again for my personal taste.
If some of them already available at scummvm official icons pack, then consider what available here is the alternative version.
Hope you'll like it.
Any feedbacks, comments, request, or even help to complete the ags icon packs. Because they're so many good hidden gem in that system.
I'll be appreciated.

Note: to use the icon pack in scummvm, rename the zip to dat example : gui-icons-ags.zip --> gui-icons-ags.dat
And place them in the icon pack path you set for the scummvm.
The alternative icons will immediately replace the icons available from the official scummvm icons pack, once you put them in the scummvm icon path you had set.
No need to unpack or change anything in the official scummvm icon packs.

Report me if you see any games that already have an icon in the scummvm's icons packs. I'll move my icons version to alternate icons. Because i just can't track every single icon. it's very time consuming. Beside i only make icon for the game that i like and worthy to have an icon.
You can try to request, if you find an interesting game (especially dark, mystery, & horror themed games) please let me know.
