Continuation of the problem https://discord.com/channels/250160069549883392/1403826552315314197. I ran the script from there. I received the compiled_res file, moved it to custom_game, and connected it to custom_ui_manifest.xml. I recompiled everything, and I got the following error: Failed loading resource "panorama/images/custom_game/units/portraits/ranged/portrait_npc_sniper_1_png.vtex_c" (ERROR_FILEOPEN: File not found)

📎 compiled_res.xml 📎 custom_ui_manifest.xml

#

here is the path to the image "E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\dota 2 beta\content\dota_addons\dotacycle\images\custom_game\UnitsPortrait\Ranged\portrait_npc_sniper_1.png"

#

iirc should be <Image src=... instead <Image file=...

#

about .SetImage error: image should be precompiled before use it by .SetImage

try
<Image src="file://images/custom_game/UnitsPortrait/Ranged/portrait_npc_sniper_1.png" />

#

also it might not be compiling the images automatically so you may want to find the "compiled_res.xml" file in your asset browser, right click and select compile
