Please note that this script does not add the fruits to your map. It simply 'installs' the hud icons for existing fruit/fill types. Existing overlays will be overwritten.
Installation
Simply copy the fillTypeOverlays.zip
archive into your mods folder. The first time a map is loaded, a new xml file called fillTypeOverlays.xml
will be created in your profile folder. You can then activate the set you want to choose, and deactivate the other one(s). To do that, set the attribute "active" to "true" for the wanted set, and to "false" for the unwanted set(s).
Preview
'Giants' set (click for original size)

'colored minimalistic' set (click for original size)

Adding additional icons
You can easily add your own icons. Create the icon (256px x 256px, DXT5 transparent DDS, no mip-maps), name it exactly as the fillType's ingame name - i.e. liquid manure must be named "liquidManure.dds", and not "liquid_manure.dds", "liquidmanure.dds" or "slurry.dds". Copy the image file to the mod's corresponding set folder. The overlay file will be 'installed' automatically during the loading of the map.

These looks really nice :)
Just a question though, since there`s so many new fruits now, how about a new version that contains: Kalk, apple (apfelmod), orange and red cabbage ?
So her a pic from me, so guess fertilizer symbol works and no errors, thx for this mod and like it very much. thx for sharing your work and nice day br joe dk
My game wont load either. The relevant log entry is: lua(45): bad arguement #2 to 'format'(number expected, got table). This is a good mod, hope this helps.
