Hi.
I was wondering why Factorio doesn't have any Icon yet and it looks so ugly with default system icon..
So I decided to make one, If anyone wants it feel free to use ;)

Factorio has an icon.

%SystemDrive%\Program Files\Factorio\data\core\graphics\factorio.ico

Just use the installer when you install (instead of the zip)

Hmmm..
I just checked and I don't have any icons there ;P
So probably something went wrong.
Never mind then.

The exe (64 bit, zip version) has no icon for me. It's no problem to create an icon even in zip folders. ;)

The tool "ressource hacker" can change the icon of any exe. (Link of the german download plattform chip. Just click on "Zum Download".)

the .ico should be found here:

*\Factorio\data\core\graphics
