SprREL: Custom ammo sprites, version 2

This is a remake of my original ammo sprites that can be found on Editor321's website. I'm not going to bother with screenies, since they are so similar to my last ones, and you can use Sprview to view them anyway.

The only error is that the staggered arrangement of the bullets is messed up with the enfield. This is because all the game does is display 2 of the same 5-bullet sprite (the one used for the k98 and springfield) to make 10 bullets. It's not really noticeable, and it helps you figure out if you should top off your magazine or not.

If anyone asks me or anybody else to fix the enfield ammo sprites I'll find out where they live and kick them in the nuts, because it's hard-coded and cant be done any other way.

Enjoy.

it has come to my attention that my old ammo sprites are no longer on editor321's site, so here is just a screenshot of the sprites in sprview for you people that don't have it.

I think they look great. However, staggering on the K98/Enfield/Springfield bullets isn't necessary as they're inserted one on top of the other, as are those in the MP44. I don't know about the rest, but it was done like that in the MP44 to avoid jamming. Apparently, they had trouble pushing all the bullets up the clip when they were staggered, so they flattened them out.

Just a heads-up. :)

I'm using now. Thanks, man.

I just staggered them because, IMO, they look cooler that way
