Upon completion, save your tga file in your mod's gfx/coat_of_arms directory.

Write the following two lines in it:īear in mind that if you wish to expand this image in the future, adding rows is relatively easy, but adding columns creates coding complications that I will discuss later. At the top of the /mod folder, create a new text file with the extension. This is where you'll put all the files you assemble for your customization. Within that directory, add the following subfolders: Most importantly, create a new directory in your /mod folder. Think about the scope of the changes you want to make and begin to gather raw images you want to use to build your CoAs. This may sound obvious, but make sure you have a plan in place before you start amending files.

These instructions rely on posts from Arko, enderbr, and others.

This thread does not discuss how to leverage emblems and patterns to create of custom coat of arms.
