I will do some unique icons for the vanilla weapons later. Other than that, I don't have any plans to do any icons for other mods, as I personally don't use any weapon mods. I'm willing to do commissions to make patches/custom icons for any mods. $30 per icon. So PM if you, or anyone else is interested.
I love this mod. There's one very minor and personal nitpick I have with it: Vault Boy having anything other than a happy expression. I like how Obsidian handled Vault Boy, with a permanent happy face regardless of circumstances (at least when it came to inventory icons). Would you give me permission to edit some of this icons to release on Nexus? Or as an optional file to your mod? Thank you!
I can make a patch and upload it in the miscellaneous section of this mod. What should I call it?
I don't think Obsidian intentionally made VB smile in every icon. I think it got that way because of limited time and resources. I can tell that the icons were made with love, but were neglected due to time constraints.
There are even a couple of icons that were not even finished that are implemented into the game, and some finished icons that were never even implemented.
Implementation fixes are thankfully identified by me and included in the framework plugin.
Perhaps it was a oversight on behalf of not being that popular, but the 25mm APW still uses the china lake icon instead of having a unique one. Not a very popular weapon, but it's always been one of my favorites
It's not an oversight on my part, that weapon does not have a icon specific to it. I'll make a note of it. Any other vanilla weapons you'd like to see?
It's good work, but i have a thought if possible. In project nevada i believe there's an image for the crowbar that has the vault boy dressed like Gordon Freeman have you considered including it for a wild wasteland thing?
Great mod! But I have a problem: All the unique weapons are using standard weapon icons! That happened after I updated it the previous version of the consistent icons v4; pls help!
Banger as always. Hey I dunno if this is in your wheelhouse, but if you ever do a new Armors Icon mod, could be cool to see T-51B get it's own icons similar to something like New T-51b Icons New Vegas. Always felt odd to me that it didn't have its own icon.
I'm currently working on the Apparel Mod, and I'm almost 95% done, with around 230-235 new icons in total. It features the same benefits as the Weapons release: everything is hand-drawn 'from scratch,' Singular VB Design, perfect alignment, and consistency.
I am also working on an 'Icon Expansion' mod, where you'll find more unique weapons, apparel, and items. Essentially, it adds icons to items/weapons/apparel that didn't have them before. If I create a unique T-51b Icon, you'll find the icon in this mod.
The game looks fantastic with these mods. One question tho (and its probably because I somehow installed it wrong), after installing v4 and the two v5 mods the icons for the status section seemed to be in the wrong aspect ratio. Any idea how I could've caused this problem? I know it ain't much to work with but any help would be appreciated!

Thank you for the consideration! :D I hope it's not too much work.

I disabled the unique weapons from v4 on purpose, as they were painfully inconsistent and ugly compared to v5.

No like seriously the icons look fantastic
Thanks for the kind words, it was really difficult mod to make.
Edit: Nevermind figured it out, thank you for the help!
