WIZARDRY 8 - Legend of Grimrock - ICON PACK
==========================================================================================
Version 0.2 by Fhizban

INFO
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This project contains 390 item icons extracted from Sir-Tech's game Wizardry 8. At the
moment there are only 2d icons, no models or lua scripts. You have to script the items
yourself in order to make the new icons visible. Future versions will contain dummy items
pre-scripted in lua so you can use the new icons without scripting effort.

DISCLAIMER
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't own any of the art. All icons are from Sir-Tech's Wizardry 8 game. This is just a
fan project. Please do not argue copyright, icon quality or icon style with me. Thanks.

Wizardry 8 still is my favourite game to date.... if Grimrock were not around I am pretty sure I would still be bashing it out with fairy ninjas armed with light sabres

Wow, they can be really helpful!!! Is that a rifle in the center??? WANT IT!!
Can't wait to use a bunch of new icons for my custom items!

Yup, Wiz8 you could arm up with muskets or blunderbusses (conveniently for you sir!)... not sure how diff the icons were though.... bullets were an icon of 4-6 grey metal balls

@akroma222 @crisman Thanks for the heads up!

EDIT: Got the icons ready, it turns out that there will be "only" 342 icons available. I adjusted the thread title and intro text accordingly.

Release without 3d models = maximum 1 week

Sorry Double Post.

A little update: The 3d models i found in the Wizardry 8 data files suck - big time. Im seriously thinking about not using them at all. It would be too much work to get them working in the Grimrock engine and it would not be worth it. So, im thinking about using the Grimrock models and just apply icon variations to them.

Well, the icons themselves are almost finished, attached are a few more pics

I like icons. Thanks for posting. :3

Fhizban - love the display pic/avatar ... I am going to go dig up the Wiz8 portraits now myself lots of humans/lizard types
You are right though, the 3d models absolutely suck. Totally.
I am sure it will definitely still be worth keeping icons around, there would be plenty of folk who are modelling their own custom gear and having a store of icons around gives them options ... or may even inspire creative ideas???
.....
Grimrock should so have a *Light Sword*

Akroma - you find all Wizardry 8 portraits, perfectly resized for legend of grimrock in my other thread:
