@DymoLo There used to be a program called Dead By Daylight Icon Toolbox that was used to download and upload custom icons/portraits/etc but the creator decided to stop supporting it, don't remember why. Nightlight basically does the same thing now with some useful extra features the Icon Toolbox didn't have
I love this about DBD! Being able to express yourself even in a small way through the hud makes your experience a lot more unique. It does suck though when your favorite icon pack is slow to update to the newest chapter or it stops getting updated all together
I've been using custom icons for many years, it's fun. Be careful when updating - right around updates to EAC, which does happen every now and then, some people have (very rarely) been caught in dragnets and gotten themselves banned because the game thinks you're trying to edit something extra. Typically, though, inconsistencies will just mean you get booted from the game and need to verify your install, and either scenario is extremely rare.
@@PebsieTTV i heard from somewhere years ago this was stranger things days that people were getting banned this way and the devs couldn't do anything cuz the banned players where on the anti-cheat side? do you know abt any of this pebs?
@@radioboy717 I'm not Pebsie, but EAC flagging an account means you're getting banned by their system, not by BHVR: they can't help you. It's still a reality in pretty much any game where the anti-cheat is a license, rather than handled in-house, including DBD - I wouldn't worry though. Most people who got/get banned are getting flagged for interfering with model textures, not icons.
Just as a heads-up: The icon names on the Wiki are quite often renamed before we upload them, since the devs are anything but consistent with their naming conventions and we like to keep things consistent on the Wiki. While a good part of the Perks fill fit the "iconPerks_perkName.png" format, some are not in camel case ("PerkName.png"), have a different initial ("iconsPerks"), or use their WIP name that is completely different to their current in-game name.
funny timing actually, im currently working on a piece of software to automatically package custom made perk icons into the right folder's with the right names etc all at the click of 1 button, im not trying to advertise or anything like that, was just cool to see multiple people thinking about the same subject
So I use NightLight and I wanted to know what would I do if I wanted different packs? (like for example I find a pack that was better than my old one would I uninstall the ones in my file or what?) I just dont want to mess my game up
Hmm it's seems I'm stuck at opening stream on my Xbox (It's a joke but ye there wasn't mention that u can't do it on consoles I always wanted them but I know it's impossible)
can you please tell me if i can do this or not if i play on pc but have dbd on microsoft store/ xbox gamepass for pc im not on an xbox im on a pc just dont play on steam
I really want to have those but I don't play dbd On pc I play on xbox but please tell me there's a way Is how we can do it on Xbox as well If not , i'm gonna be so sad🙏🙏🙏🙏😣😣😣😣
Yeah that'd be extremely cool, but consoles aren't too happy with people modifying files. I think it's as much a Sony / Microsoft thing as a Bhvr thing. What they really need is official support -- hell they could even sell perk packs on the store to give back to creators!!!
@@PebsieTTV that’s what I meant with my original comment but yeah, they should do that I feel like that would be a unique customizable option in the water game like dead by daylight, could say that they have it it would be totally unique to Dead by daylight and they would make money in the process, and it would be proconsumer it would probably be a easy win

If you didn't mention NightLight, I was gonna be upset, lmao. BritishBoop works hard on that software and program.
I will forever love Nightlight for continuing the old DBD Icon Toolbox's legacy when it got discontinued.
Yeah, such a cool piece of software. So fast and efficient.

Yeah, it’s a mega cool feature!! Just draw it yourself like I did 😆
Buncha shit

Ah fair play, that’s not too scary then!

@T.BG822 thx I've always avoided icon changes cuz of this 😂

Cheers for this, that's really useful to be aware of.

That’s super cool!! DM me on Twitter when it’s done and I’ll chuck a video out on it.
how to remove them through the nightlight method is the question
this may be a dumb question, but how do you delete them if you change your mind later?
Came here to get pretty icons, leaving knowing i can literally draw my own now
I wish dbd would officially support custom icons. It would be a fun reward for getting a certain prestige or devotion level or something
For sure. They could even sell them on the store to give artists a kick back.

hate to break it to you but unfortunately its only exclusive to pc
@@BrandonBreakfast awwwwwww!!!!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I’m sad you can only do this on PC I wish that behavior would work with these people to bring these customizations to Consol

How can I do this on ps5
Can’t
Are u able to do this on Xbox x series files?
Doesnt work on consoles...
😢 just.... 😢
Yeah you need a pc to customize the game pretty much at all unfortunately
I mean yeah what were you expecting 💀
Obivously not.
Besides everyone knows that real gamers use pc
Hi! Not a question about question perks, I want something refreshing for you.
How's your day?
Good thank you, how is yours? :)
I will never do this, the moment i try this i will get banned i just know lol.

*cries in console*
First requirement: Be a PC player
There's no perks folder on ps5 😢
Yeah, not sure this'll ever be doable on console unless Bhvr add official support somehow!
