Improved Asset Icons (alternative)
This is an alternative version of the Improved Asset Icons mod.
Original mod:
I take no credit for this mod. I only made minor changes. All credit goes to FrF, the original creator.
I thought that the Improved Asset Icons mod was one of the best and most simple mods on the workshop. Missing asset icons were really frustrating. And this mod actually helps to fix that.
Unfortunately, the mod also removed icons of mods that were working properly before. This really bothered me so I tried to fix this problem myself.
The original mod also tries to fix the ugly dark-blue focus icon of existing asset icons. In some rare cases something goes wrong while patching an existing icon. Maybe they are incompatible? Or there is some other problem? I’m actually not a modder, so I have no clue (for now).
In this version I made sure that the mod will skip any assets if there is already an icon available. This brought back all the icons that the mod removed and still replaces missing icons with workshop previews.
This also means that all these skipped icons will have the ugly dark-blue focus… I hope that doesn’t bother too many people. (if this mod is still used at all)
If you had no problems with the original mod, just use that one. There is no reason to use this version in that case.
UPDATE:
If you used the original before this one. Everything worked fine. If you skipped the original and went for this version first. It would not work. Aparently I messed up originally, but because both mods access the same resources in the cache or something it was not a problem. This is now fixed. I only noticed myself after playing the game with mods on a different computer…
