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).

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.
