Exe Icons

Sorry if this gets asked a lot, but does anyone know if there's a recommended way to change a Blitz+ exe icon - I seem to remember a hack for Blitz 2D.

Thanks.

You could use ResHacker to replace the icon in the .exe file, or maybe use ResHacker on runtime.dll in the Blitz program directory (if this file exists).
There is also a dll for this:

The topic is 'Set Icon' or 'Set Icon B2D'.

You'll need to create a .ico file first. Use Icon Developer from the toolbox to get one.

What about in a Window

You mean the smaller versions of the icon ? I believe they are generated automatically by windows. You might need to rename or copy the file to update this 16x16 icon after you replaced the program's 32x32 icon.

Thanks for the help people, I'll look into that link. Can only get on the internet every few days at parents - reason for delayed response.

There's always a bunch of nerds taking up all the PCs in the library :)

Thanks - I managed to get an icon in a window - though not transparent - I used IrfanView to convert a PNG.l

Will look at ResHacker next.
