A few high resolution new NCP icons.

This is how the look in vista 1920x1200 screen resolution. Hope you like them :)


Casque, 7e régiment de cuirassiers

Étendard du quatrième régiment de cuirassier

Both combined

To use them, unzip the .ico files. Right click in the NCP shortcut in your desktop. Click on properties, change icon and browse to where you unzipped the .ico files. Choose the one you like.

If you do not want to keep it, to restore the original, do the same and browse to where your NCP is installed (usually "C:\Program Files\Napoleon's Campaigns") and select the .exe

Very nice! :thumbsup:
I like the middle one best :coeurs:
I guess they would work in XP too, don't they?

I think they should, but no XP system here, so cannot tell for sure ;)

They can be used with icons set to extralarge, but this is not very usable even at 1920x1200 :D

Oh! I thought it was a horseshoe... :niark:
BTW, Nikel, it's never too late to say your icons are great.

Thanks arsan, it is the quality of the original portrait what does the job.

Thiebault was very difficult to find, well was just casual, I had another portrait but was not very good

Hi Bohémond :)


Of course, feel free to use them as you want.

By the way you need an avatar ;)

Thank you Nikel,

A avatar ? yes maybe, I'm going to start looking for one ;)

I think it will be a beard. :D
