If it possible, i would like to convert CM themes

Icon pack for what? Cm? Or other ?

Yes, for CM 10.2, its possible ?

Icon packs are new to cm11 theme engine.
You can replace the icons with the old template for cm10.2 or you could use vr theme template

What are you going to work on? Vr is far easier to do but you need 9png skills and zip making too. You can use the template i have used to make my slimkat theme's if you want? Just replace file's with what you're working on zip and flash. Easy as that.

Link to vr theme thread..

I know how to make flashable zip in recovery and for the case of images (icons), I have already extracted the theme
So in the end could you pass me the link of the template for CM 10.2 and I'll tell you if I have problems?

Is this for you're own use or release

Honestly, if I think it's a success, I will consider to share it, why do you ask it?

 

[andrewwright]

For release use this as a template..

I don't understand, its an theme template for CM 10.2 but its not icon pack template ?

 

[andrewwright]

There is no icon pack for cm10.2 only cm11. You can change the icons in cm10.2 with a theme template but restrictions on only having that theme set. or with a zip like vr.
My advice is to move to cm11 theme engine and make for that not tbh an out of date android version..but that's up to you. Soon 5.0 is out so 10.2 will be very out of date.

@andrewwright I have start my project: make icon pack theme from a CM theme, so i'll tell you how I do it and if you can tell me if I do things well as it should, it would be nice of you

So i have decompile the CM theme with apktool and i take the pictures names, i copy & past it in "appfilter.xml" file, so add for exemple this line:

<item component="ComponentInfo{com_adobe_air_icon/com.adobe.air.AdobeAIRMainActivity}" drawable="icon_name"/>

I help me of this website:
http://activities.tundem.com/

If i can, i take the activity name of an app with Apex launcher..

Is what I need to do differently?

Yeah ... I am also using this tutorial:

Add these lines mate.

<item component="ComponentInfo{com.anddoes.launcher/com.anddoes.launcher.Launcher}" drawable="apex" />

<item component="ComponentInfo{com.anddoes.launcher.pro/com.anddoes.launcher.pro.ApexLauncherProActivity}" drawable="apex" />

<item component="ComponentInfo{com.anddoes.launcher.pro/com.anddoes.launcher.pro.ApexLauncherProActivity}" drawable="apex" />

Why add these lines?
