Item icon numbers?

Ok, I know this is probably a stupid question but it has been bugging me for a while. I use Akka's EOC to look at the weapon viewer and it gives the IT# for the weapon but how do you find the icon # if you don't know the name of the weapon to look up in the database?

Thanks,
Mortow

So, you're in a situation where you're looking at a weapon icon graphic, and can't tell which IT#### model it's associated with and what item id's use that model and icon?

EOC displays the IT# for the graphic I am looking at but I don't know where to dig up the icon number associated with that model weapon.

I'm not aware of anything in particular that ties a weapon model number to an item icon number. No algorithm or translation table or anything. It's just a matter of having an icon number specified in the item record in the database that gives a look relatively like the 3D weapon/armor/item model used in game.

You could always do something in Perl using DBI to select all of the possible variations of item textures for an icon. But sometimes icons are used for non-visible (IT63) items, as well as weapons that look no where close to the icon itself.

Double posting because it's a bump:

Code:

use DBI;

use DBD::mysql;

sub List {

    my $icon = shift;

    my $user = "USERNAME";

    my $pass = "PASSWORD";

    my $db = "DATABASE";

    my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:mysql:$db:localhost:3306", $user, $pass);

    $sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT DISTINCT idfile FROM `items` WHERE `icon` = '$icon' ORDER BY `idfile` ASC");

    $sth->execute();

    my @a;

    if ($sth->rows() > 0) {

        while (my $idfile = $sth->fetchrow()) {

            push @a, $idfile;

        }

    }

    $sth->finish();

    $dbh->disconnect();

    return "All of the following item textures are used for icon $icon: " . join(", ", @a);

}

print "What icon would you like to see the textures for?\n";

my $icon = int(<STDIN>);

print List($icon);

I will give that a try, Kingly. Thank you both for your help.

You're welcome, here's an example of its use.

That is actually the reverse of what I need. I know the IT#### but not the actual icon#.

I apologize:

Code:

use DBI;

use DBD::mysql;

sub List {

    my $idfile = shift;

    chomp $idfile;

    my $user = "USERNAME";

    my $pass = "PASSWORD";

    my $db = "DATABASE";

    my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:mysql:$db:localhost:3306", $user, $pass);

    $sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT DISTINCT icon FROM `items` WHERE `idfile` = '$idfile' ORDER BY `icon` ASC");

    $sth->execute();

    my @a;

    if ($sth->rows() > 0) {

        while (my $icon = $sth->fetchrow()) {

            push @a, $icon;

        }

    }

    $sth->finish();

    $dbh->disconnect();

    return "All of the following item icons are used for idfile $idfile: " . join(", ", @a);

}

print "What idfile would you like to see the icons for?\n";

my $idfile = <STDIN>;

print List($idfile);
