    i had a car accident while being distracted thinking of this, hope it is worth it (car is totalos, i am unharmed and no one got hurt)

    [​IMG]

    try to guess what is what so i know it is clear enough
    protip: first one is standard

    if i get enough positive votes i might make them into a real icon set, bottom right corner are some scrabbles i used to copy paste, ignore them plz

    solutions:

    standard
    chain gun
    heavy chain gun
    bio mgun
    50 cal gun
    explosive tipped
    plasma super heated gun
    depleated uranium tipped
    heavy depleted uranium
    heavy 50cal

    What are the little blacks dots in the lower left corner of the pics for?

    I'm guessing they represent the stats of the guns, which is an awesome idea, but the icons will be broken and misleading as soon as the gun stats are changed, which happens often.

    yes and yes, its not hard to update them though, they mirror the star system from empiresmod wikipedia

    first line is anti infantry, second line is anti armor third line is anti hull fourth line is accuracy and 5th line is heat

    Hmmmm. Although I voted I didn't like the icons, I kind of regret it :headshot: (The yellow gradient was temporarly blinding for me but it is not your fault.) Not only do the icons look good, they are actually helpful too. For instance, the novice players could make good tanks by using the icons. (No more standard armor heavies with chain-guns?) Blizzerd, you should definitely make a real icon set and yes the car accident was worth it. (What kind of car did you have anyways?)

    It's gotten to the point were anything is better than what there is now, and the sooner the devs pick up on one of the many icon sets out there the better.

    also what is the 2 slot 50cal?? The DU ones could be more obvious, but other than that this is a perfectly fine set.

    2 slot 50 cal is exactly the same as 3 slot 50 cal but with only 1 bullet and 2 slots

    its somewhere above separate from the 3slot version because i did them in the order of the body size (easier, but made them become unsorted)

    mr quackums vessboys and hypnos what was hardest to guess?


    btw, this is what is left of my car

    I think plasma + DU could be a bit more clear, but the rest were awesome.

    i am working on plasma but question is how does plasma look?
    i am trying to depict how a bullet heated and with afterburtner-like effect would look like (think jet fighter afterburn + lead bullet)

    the large DU was based on this,

    [​IMG]

    the small one on the fact that DU also comes in conventional ammo "tipped" with a DU coating

    anyone know how to make it more clear what it is? also i have started making the cannon versions

    I DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE SPECIALISED AMMUNITION, I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT CALIBER STANDS FOR... HELP ME!

    edit:
    I ALREADY KNOW I AM A BAD DRIVER

    BY DARWIN THAT SMALL CAR LOOKS CUTE!!!
