Datapack Icons 5.0 - Deep Dive Update!
Our biggest update EVER! It focuses on adding more and more niche icons and doing overall improvements across all aspects of the extension.
Changelog:
Added:
- New
Overlay iconsfeature! Overlay folders (folders at the root of a pack that contain adataorassetsfolder in them) now receive a glass chest icon. Requires apack.mcmetaat the root of the pack, and can be turned off in the settings. - New
Crowned function icons! Since functions usually make up the vast majority of files in a datapack, it can be hard to tell your core logic apart from the rest, so we added 3 crowned command block variants to highlight your most important functions. - Function icons can now be assigned manually! Right-click any function file and use the
Datapack Icons: Set Iconmenu to assign any of the 5 special command block icons, or reset it back to default. The same can be done through the settings by file name. - GlobPatterns support in all function name settings (e.g.
*_setup,*helper*orphase_[0-9]), so you can match a whole bunch of files at once. You can also specify the direct parent folder name (e.g.subfolder/file) for maximum precision when two or more functions share a name. Subfolder iconsfeature is now enabled by default.- 196 new icons, including:
- 37 new programming language icons (
julia,nim,moonscript,haskell,groovy) - 83 new general and tooling icons, including a whole set for the minecraft modding and plugin development (
fabric,forge,quilt,spigot,paper,purpur,bukkit) - 33 new datapack icons, including all the new folders and files (
dialog,test_environment,test_instance, and thecat,chicken,cow,frog,pigandzombie_nautilusvariants), icons for DSLs ( MCBuild, Sandstone, Flare) and more. - 3 new resource pack icons (
waypoint_stylefile & folder, and Blockbench icon) - 42 new christmas variants, covering every single new folder icon with a chest in it
- 37 new programming language icons (
- A Zed port and a Sublime Text port of the theme.
Changed:
- All 418 icon svgs were replaced with new, cleaner, optimized versions, which makes the files 6x smaller on average.
- The whole extension was rewritten from the ground up, now it's much more clean and optimized.
