Thank you again. The problem is that I found this icon in a special germany career looks like the above picture. That is very different from what we use in normal Mods. So I wanna check the real file that HUD.dds of this special mod. But it is the same as what we use.
So I wanted to find where is the special icons in data file. Finally, I found it, icionchief Engieer dds or tga, in this way :data/menu/ gui/layout. After that, I tried to replace it with other icon, but I failed.
So, can you tell me where is the real file?

take a look on the highlighted files then i guess (same "Layout" folder). "HUDButtons.dds" seems to be the buttons itself and the other files seem to be the button overlays.

also i'm just guessing those may be the files you are searching, but not 100% sure

[edit] i had a look in "menu_1024_768.ini", the files "Orders1.tga", "Orders2.tga" and "Orders3.tga" are linked to the game bar for sure.
