AGS does yes, just name the icon USER.ICO and put it in your game folder I think.

I thounk you're asking for some resource hacker type program though.

yea it was an exe debuger or somthing, you could change every icon res and yXw etc for that particular exe. AGS wouldnt accept my 32x32 256 colour icon i made with axialis icons.

EDIT: wouldn't take the 16x16 256 either... Don't tell me it only compiles 16 colour icons?

If you'd read the manual on icons then yes, you would know how it works :|

it's 32x32 16 colour.  and must be a proper ICOn file, not a renamed BMP.
