Changing TIDs to see new items?

Hello to everyone!

I search for a way to display some item icons that I can't easily access in game and get screenshots of them, which after I will crop to 50x50 and use in my website. I thought that changing the TIDs of some easy-to-find items and replace them with the TIDs of the icons I need to see, should solve my problem. So I switched the TIDs between a normal armor and a realm armor, also the TID of a normal armor with a TID of a quest item, but no luck, it keeps showing me the original icon (and info) and not the one I was expecting to see.

The files I tried to change, were:
itemtemplateentry.ini
itemdatatable.txt
itemtemplate/Reference.Dat
I tried lot of combinations so far, but none worked.

Does anybody has any suggestions of whice files should I change or which combination should I use? Or does anybody know any other way to see/get the item icons? Because I also searched all the .png files in each Data.dat, but there are no pictures of items there, I only found some other UI pictures.

tried this way many times it won't help, there was archlord old cm version depack file utility somewhere on this forum maybe it works with this client

If you mean the DatTool, I have already used it, but I couldn't find any images of items in the dat files, just some other images, like maps and interface.

@drwx: maybe a link?

@csoresz2
What link u mean? For DatTool?

DatTool:

its in itemtemplate
Go there and search at the top texture=[number]
then go to the item you wish and change [number]=[TID of item wich icon you want it to have]

i hope this helped

It didn't work. I tried this by switching the [TID] of a bibulan skirt (existed) and a bedilla hairlace (wanted) and the icon remained the same, the only thing that changed was the name of the item and nothing else.

Pity! I will keep trying though, maybe there is another way somehow (I'll let you know if I find something)

i have found out how to change the icon but you need to decompress the .dat files then search for the correct texture and then change it.
kinda complicated
