UPDATE: Halo 2 HUD v1.04

Post by Hawaiian Pig »

The HUD has received a huge overhaul, thanks to Genocide, and myself, the Halo 2 HUD is no more crisp, cleaner, and more accurate than ever. Once the files forums are up it will be posted, but for now, here are some pics.

haha, well here's the thing about the pistol ... u can't have seprate pics for each weapon... there are only 5 possible symbols per ammo type...

They are: frag grenade, plasma grenade, canister (for the flame thrower), bullets/ballistics (you would know this symbol as the x and the bullet), and the battery (...looked like a battery). So i simply changed the bullet one to a pistol, since it is "the" symbol for human weapons. and the Battery to a Plasma Pistol, as it is the counterpart of the Human pistol.

So think of them as "Human Weapon" and "Alien Weapon" symbols.

It's hard coded into the game...ask any HPC modder, who's eveer looked at the hud bitmaps.

You can rebuild UI.map right? If so, you could probly duplicate the hud multiple times for each different weapon, and change each corresponding weapon's dependencies to point to it's proper hud symbol. But if it can't be done, o well.

I don't think you can even edit UI.map. I'd suggest using some kind of symbol for the human and covenant weapons, instead of the gun.
