I wanted to know what file determines what icons to use for the home,user,Downloads,Music,etc. folders. Right now none of the usr/share/icons are being used for such folder and they just appear as normal ones.

Anyone>>>?
I know its not really a big issue or anything, but it still would be nice to know.
I found the answer myself. To get the new icons for folders such as Downloads, Videos etc. you need to have a file called user-dirs.dirs in your .config folder. That file should contain something similar to this.
Code:XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop" XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/Downloads" XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/Templates" XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR="$HOME/Public" XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="$HOME/Documents" XDG_MUSIC_DIR="$HOME/Music" XDG_PICTURES_DIR="$HOME/Pictures" XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="$HOME/Videos"
