- After reinstall game on new system (hardware change) I found some strange thing. All mech icon in Mech bay was in base color and pattern state. To make them as they was, I need go into each mech "camo spec", change color, accept changes and change it back, to make game create new mech icon in UI folder. When you have few mech, it easy to do. When you have over 100, it become a problem.

It is possible to add some button in setting like - "refresh UI mech icon" or "create them from mech" or something like that? Because I, maybe like all others, have some visual orienteer besides mech name when construct "drop deck" or choose mech for QP.

So... MWO need something what automatically make snapshots of mech icons in UI when user install game on new PC, system or reinstall after some data loss.

- Seems I found solution of that problem.
When you reinstall game and before you loose all files copy content of that folder:
C:\Users\<username>\Saved Games\MechWarrior Online\UI\MechIcons
All files you found there.
And store them on other disk or memory-stick.
After you install game, put them back in same location as they was before starting the game.
And - wow! You get all mech icons back as they was...
No need to check all of them and bring back.
