  3. Inside the folder you will see icon.png and param.txt
    Inside the item folder, highlighting all the files
    icon.png is a 32x32px sprite you can use to represent the item however you like.

    param.txt contains the details the game needs in order to define the item and what it contextually does.

{
  "_itemName": "This text is the Trade Item's display name",
  "_itemDescription": "This text goes in the space beneath the Trade Item's name",
  "extra": ""
}

Edit the text within the speech marks ("") to change the text the item displays in-game.

"_itemName": "Very Cool Trade Item",
"_itemDescription": "This Trade Item is Very Cool!",

And here we are:
