--Weapon Icon Replacement
--==============================================================================================
I got tired of the low quality weapon icons in Anomaly so I decided to make new ones. I loaded
up the weapon models in Blender and rendered them in 16x ingame resolution then scaled them
down in Photoshop.
This does NOT include weapon attachments, I plan to do them (and potentially more icons) in
the future. I also have not tested this mod extensively so there may be alignment issues with
weapon attachments. If you find attachments misaligned post a screenshot and the name of the
weapon and attachment in the comments and I will try to get around to fixing it.
Some of the icons on the "ui_icon_equipment.dds" file don't seem to be used by the game, so I
didn't replace them. However if you find an icon that is used by the game that I missed let me
know the name of the weapon and I will try to add it.
Also the reason the mod is 128 MB is that I have saved the file as uncompressed in order to
preserve quality. Compressing DDS files can dramatically degrade their quality depending on the
content of the image. I suspect the poor quality of many of the icons was due to them being
recompressed every time the file was resaved after being modified.

--Installation
--==============================================================================================
1. Extract the gamedata folder to your root Anomaly folder.
--==============================================================================================
--Mod Conflicts
--==============================================================================================
This mod will conflict with any other mod that modifies the file "ui_icon_equipment.dds". There
are several that I am aware of on ModDB. I will possibly make patches for these in the future.
If you are the author of a mod that modifies "ui_icon_equipment.dds" you have both my full
permission and encouragement to use these icons in your own mod. Consider them all public domain.
--==============================================================================================
--Uninstallation
--==============================================================================================
Simply delete the file "ui_icon_equipment.dds" from your "gamedata\textures\ui" folder.

Excellent work! This was long needed!
Hello, it's okay, nice, but it looks unnatural, as if it were made of plastic. Maybe add some noise to the textures of the weapons. But I appreciate the idea
