New bayonet icon...


05-06-2003, 01:36 PM
One terrible, terrible thing about 1.0 was the shocking horror of the buttstock icon.
Why?
My poor K98 bayonet was left in the dust, now a bayonet kill is nothing compared to the funny buttstock image.
I revamped the old bayonet icon and made it more interesting, note it's my first sprite, so maybe it's not godly-- but it's more entertaining than the old one. (I didn't make one for the British Enfield because I'm lazy..)
Credit goes to whoever made the original bayonet icon, but decided to neglect it (Shame on you.)

Cool. This probably belongs in MSA though. I'll show you the way.




Oh wait...

Very cool but...people would have been stabbed in their chest first, then possibly their head. Head is a small thing to aim for.

Oh yeah, DoD team, why is the buttstock image so damn big? It blocks out other ****. As funny as it is, it also looks like you made it with MS paint. I suggest making it smaller and polishing it up a little.

But making it smaller takes away from the humor, and we don't want that, now do we? :D

I resized mine, and the Bren death icon, since that one is huge also, and edited the hud.txt to fit em. I also fixed where it cuts off the K43 death icon, and how it shows an extra little piece of another gun in the MG42 death icon. I haven't bothered to release since I didn't think there'd be much demand for it.

problem is, it still won't ever have the same effect as the buttstock icon. its a lot funnier when EVERYONE can see it. with custom icons you can only snicker to yourself, because the victim still just sees the humorless default icon (as does everyone else)
