Factorio Forums

I'd like to request "official" versions of the gears used in achievements, for modders to use. They're baked into game graphics, so as far as it seems, the only way to "get them" would be to compose pieces from different achievements and hope.

If modders could just have some graphics, preferably higher resolution to better blend images, that'd be nice. The current (1.1.78) achievement graphics are 128x128, so, say 256x256 or even more would be convenient.

It's worth noting that even in the game files there are a few variants. I hope it's not a copyright issue for me to attach examples illustrating it. There's bronze?, silver, gold, red, and slight variations on lighting, especially visible when comparing tech maniac to trans-factorio express, for example.

Hi,

I've stumbled over More Achievements which adds achievement graphics.

A folder called graphic bases exists in the source repository but maybe you should ask Bilka for permission if you want to use them?

They are usable as-is from that repository, but they're GPLv3 according to that, which significantly restricts their use with other code and raises sticky questions on how dependency interacts with licensing.

With that license you can simply download the graphics from github and include them in your own mod, as long as you:

• Publish your mod under the GPLv3 License as well
• Include the license in your mod
• Add a link to the source of the graphics in your mod
• State if and how you modified the graphics in your mod

Reusing content of another mod by adding a dependency to it can’t be restricted in any way, since as soon as you upload your mod to the mod portal the terms of service from Factorio apply.
