Wanna see the HL2 weapon icons?

[Mess]

Howdy!

I discovered a font file in Steam that actually holds all of the VGUI icons for HL2. As well as being able to see the ammo, health, team-mate icons, you can also get an idea of what the weapons will look like. Check the attached picture to see some of them.

If you want to look at the file yourself, it's in Steam > SteamApps > [emailaddress] > counter-strike source > hl2 > resource.

Enjoy!

Let the speculation into which weapon's what begin.

Ugh, this has been posted before. And i'm sure if the search function worked PROPERLY you'd have relized that.

 

[el Chi]

Surely that's not all the weapons, is it? I suppose 15 is how many there were in the first one, but I was under the impression we hadn't seen them all?

 

[Gorgon]

this is an old picture, thanks for posting it again.

 

[czrsink]

Oh man, this is so old, Fred Flinstone told me about it.

 

[deathscent]

i thought dino did...

Yeah, it's not much, but then again, it's all I ever needed in HL1, it had just the right amount of guns, plenty of variation, but no useless junk that you never use. You used all the guns throughout the game, even the glock, not like other games where you just use the most powerful one.

 

[OmegaX]

thanks, nice find

 

[czrsink]

Welcome to the forums, btw

 

[Gray Fox]

This may be old but what is that weapon next to the crossbow, on its right side.?

 

[AJ Rimmer]

Goodie. Was hoping for a few more though.

 

[czrsink]

The Gauss Gun, from HL1.

 

[deathscent]

machine gun, prolly
*edit: crap, too late*

 

[czrsink]

I bet those grenades weigh a ton...

 

[czrsink]

Hehe, and the other one (far right) is the Pomegranete, for when Gordon gets hungry.

 

[deathscent]

*try not to double post, just edit the previous one*
lmao, those are the pharamones (correct spelling or word?) for the bugs

 

[[sl@yer]]

What's the one on the right of the 2nd row down? Is that the OICW (doesn't seem to have a scope though)? I thought that had been removed. Or it's a really obvious weapon and I'm being dense...

 

[PvtRyan]

What's the thing in the top left? Gordon's flute?

 

[deathscent]

PvtRyan: flashlight

It's the ocarina of G... it turns you into G-man and you travel into the future.. (this may be speculation)

 

[czrsink]

What do you mean there's no pomegranetes?!

 

[deathscent]

damnit slayer, are you talking about what appears to be a flamethrower or the glock?!

and maybe...

 

[PvtRyan]

PvtRyan: flashlight

But that's on your arm:

[czrsink]

Isn't that the MP-7, with underslung grenade launcher? It looks like an MP-3, but with a bit stuck on it.

And the 'flute' is probably the stun stick used by the Combine grunts.

There are 5 rows. In the 2nd row from the top - on the right (3rd one along).

 

[deathscent]

im lost, time to go eat some lunch

 

[AJ Rimmer]

Dear god don't let them use the doom 3 flashlight system.
(just kidding, I now they don't)

 

[[sl@yer]]

im lost, time to go eat some lunch

Do you have your browser window really small or something??! Can anyone else confirm what this weapon is??

 

[czrsink]

Actually, on closer inspection of the font, I believe it to be some kind of ammunition. If you blow the fonts up to 72 point, you notice that all the 'weapons' are outline drawings, whereas the ammo icons are solid.

Just a thought.

 

[[daniom]]

cannot be all the weapons, i hope the trip mine will be back !

 

[Grub]

Awww! There's no Egon! I would've loved to see that in HL2..

Oh well, someone will make a mod for it.

 

[[sl@yer]]

cannot be all the weapons, i hope the trip mine will be back !

Yes...and I think one review (possibly PC Zone) mentioned satchel charges.......or I just made that up.

 

[czrsink]

See what I mean? The 'flute' sits in with the ammo, rather than the weapons.

 

[[sl@yer]]

Valve obviously predicted that we would find these images, so I'm guessing there may be a couple of weapons that are not shown. I'm sure I read about satchel charges.....and tripmines must be back...they must!

 

[ViolenceJack]

Its not all, there needs to be some alien weapons. Although we might not be dealing with your usual slimy alien bio weapon type aliens but more like the metal, plastic weapon style that us pathetic humans have.

 

[czrsink]

Combine Overwatch Rifle, that's developed by the bad guys, and could be classed as 'alien'. Although it would be nice to have some organic weapons again, and I guess we do have ant-lions instead of snarks.

How could Valve possibly replace the Hornet Gun though? If there's no Alien Grunts, we can't nick their weapons

 

[Wildhound]

I may be wrong, but I thought Valve stated the handheld barnacle would put in an appearance.

 

[AJ Rimmer]

Man, I hope there will be more weapons.

 

[theotherguy]

if you played the *cough* beta *cough* you would find that there are MANY more weapons than that

It's not a beta, thanks that calmed me down and please shut up.

It's hard to be correct, be nice and obey the rules at the same time but I do my best goddammit, I do my best! :frown:
