<div class="IPBDescription">a few q's</div> alright after being directed away from the customization forums to here, ill copy/paste my post...
alright with the new 4.0 out servers have the ability to include custom icons tagged onto players names (besides the given dev, constie, vet, ect)
with this implimentation I was curious what exactly the icons were made up from
I was hoping to maybe create one and see about getting it integrated for the regulars on a server that I enjoy playing on
so any information on specs, helpful progs, tutorials, or anything else would be appreciated

So you'd make a 16x16 pixel monochrome tga named for example 640_TEST.tga then set mp_customicon to "TEST009", which would make it blue.
This plugin is usefull for icons

Right now he's using the NS Guide icon for donators.
As far as I know, they're still not working.
grrr!

Yea, I'm still using the NSGuide Icon, the custom icon is broken.

When?! I just waiting for custom too <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->
i may well be wrong however
he developed NSAdmin, a metamod-plugin that works like amx mod and adminmod - but for NS..
This program is private... he don't give out the program unless he know the person...
NSAdmin have a built in feature to give the guide icons for who is a donator - based on a database <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

NSAdmin is not a metamod plugin.

what's the program to create tga? can I use bmp, jpg, or other type of format? is it suppose to be mp_customicon set to 640_TEST.tga cuz that's the file name for custom icon?
"Pick up equipment at waypoint" so that way when I'm halfway across the map I realize that it's not worth it. Other games I thought we were under attack or something and he wanted us back. Anyway, just thought I would add that this has helped a lot.
