How to change the small map icons for main capitols?

Post » Wed Jun 20, 2012 11:08 pm

How to I look in the map marker and I read for example Witherun capitol but I can't find it in the list of things in CK , so how do I do to make my own capitol specific small map icons?

i believe all of the game icons are made with a 3rd party GUI app (Scaleform?) and are hard-coded as such. you would need the app to create new ones, and even then, i would have no idea how to import them into skyrim

I made a topic asking about this a few weeks ago and got nothing.

I'd love to be able to add my own catagories for map markers, but it appears they are all hardcoded and there is no way within the CK to access or change them. :/

there is also an unused "city" marker which you can use to differentiate from towns. i think there's at least 3 or 4 icons in the list that were never used in skyrim

This is what I'm using for my two main cities. I'd love to make my own little symbols for them, but this does nicely if it's the best I can do...

yeah, without Scaleform or whatever UI design tool they used, i don't think we can edit any of the icons since they would likely be baked into a compiled file somewhere
