.exe Icon Troubles

#1 Post by Sumire76Joker » Thu Jun 09, 2016 6:44 pm

Hi all. So I'm getting ready to post my game in the WIP: short non-commercial games section, but changing the .exe icon is giving me no end of trouble. I've been browsing the forum for solutions, but none of them have worked for me. I used the icon converter to change the icon to the appropriate file type, I put it in the base folder, built the package, and it didn't work. It was originally a 48x48 file. I tried changing the name of the build, as one post suggested, but that also did not work. The default ren'py icon is still there. Ant ideas?

It can take a while for the .exe icon to update on your computer even if you did everything correctly.
Restart the windows explorer (Googling "restart windows explorer" gives a nice list of instructions) or just restart your computer entirely to check whether the icon is actually incorrect.
