Question about ammo Icons

[Evigrof]

Hello!

I just recently started playing Half Life with Half Live 2. As you pick up ammo the little icons pop up saying what you just got. On some I can figure out what I picked up, like a grenade or arrow. But there are some I just can not figure out. Is there a list of what each icon is somewhere on this thing we call the net? I have searched and found out how to see the font that Valve used and that has the icons, but it doesn't say what it is.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Evi

Here, I made this.

Not sure why.

You know what ammo you got when you can use the weapon and have it in your hand

 

[kacation_man]

cuz.. he asked.. or you made it prior to his post?

I'm not a nice person, I guess he caught me between frothing rages.

Lucky Me!!

Thanks a ton. One that isn't on there that I figured out was the pulse rifle's second ammo.

Again thanks, I won't tell anyone that you were nice so as not to give them any ideas :smoking:

Thank you. I have an image to maintain.

Yeah, I didn't know what the icon for the secondary pulse rifle ammo meant until the second time I played through.

I'm onto you. :frown:

The secondary ammo for the pulse rifle was like an orb if I remember correctly, maybe with some swirly lines going through it. It's the only ammo symbol which was spherical anyway.

edit: If you are interested in knowing what the ammo pick ups are before you get them, you can see pictures on a the following links. 3 examples:

Pistol
SMG
AR2 Pulse Rifle


As soon as you pick these up, you will obviously see the icons provided by KineticAesthetic earlier.
