Hi,
When Opening or looking at Recennt files, both FC and AD files are shown. This is great but could the Icons be contrasting colours?
Now we work with two different file types, anything to help quickly identify between .fcsx and .fcfx

Re: FC and AD File Identifiers
Thanks for the suggestion - I've added it to my list.
You can actually do this yourself, but it involves some registry edits and so only do this if you know what you are doing. And searching the internet for things like "change windows file icon" brings links for a tool to do this called "File Types Manager". I've never used that tool and so I can't personally endorse it though.

Re: FC and AD File Identifiers
Further to this, I've just tested it and just a single change to the following registry location will show FCSX App Developer projects with a different icon:
As I said before, only do this if you feel comfortable altering your registry settings as you can cause big problems if you change the wrong settings.
It needs a restart after editing, but it works. Here's some proof:
Code: Select all
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\fcsx_file\DefaultIcon
