I just made these objective icons.
As I noted on the preview the neutral icon with the fist has a version that has the fist pulsating so it fades in and out.
And I have a static version just as you see on the preview.

Let me know which one you like best:

neutral icon:

- animated fist
- static fist
- clear

"other obj" icons:

- background with color
- background with flag

I can release all versions but just want to know which is liked best or don't need to be released at all ;)

Thanks, as usual ;)
But do you prefer one above another?

Looking great! Only problem is I can't decide on which I like better. ;)

Looks good, I really like the color overlay icons. The bridge in particular looks excellent.

One suggestion, very minor: the U.S. flag you're using is a 50-star flag rather than the 48-star used during the war.

OMG you notice that? No offence though ;)

Well I made it as realistic as possible but it wasn't going to work that well to fit it propperly but I don't think much people will notice? :P

But thanks for mentioining, and comments ;)

well that you asked, i prefer the ones with the obj with the solid flag behind it, and without the fists.

Ok thanks, I will finish the other obj icons for the Tank, AAgun and the other one, so all icons are replaced.

I did some changes and I think I got all object icons for all game modes and they are a lot ;) (pfeeeew).

I got a few "bombed" icons to finish tomorrow and then I will release the first pack.
First pack meaning all icons but will be no animated neutral icon (just clear background) and no flags at background of objectives, but those will be released later on.

Wow, these are nice :)

I am making Version 3 of the MOH HUD right now and after doing some of my own I have just about scrapped them after seeing these.

I like the defence shield in the screenshot, but below the objective icons not the det pack icon (looks too big by about one third for me), the explosion however is cool.

The Black/blue and white US icons is a good idea and a matching player icon may look OK to as getting the US flag in a circle always looks a bit silly (needs a oval or square with rounded corners).

The only problem is a problem anyone has when making these, the custom mappers stick Green/white icons up there too.

Matching the 48 star US flag or blue white makes a bit of a mess, but when on standard maps these look great.

Blending in for custom maps was going to be my next project, sort of a US flag with a splash of green and white into a design. But getting those colors, red white blue green with a "part flag/white-green star" to go together... and look nice, is a struggle :(

I like the way the blue icons have the black fade... gave me an idea for my new winpanels...

*runs away to make VTF file

Thanks guys!

What you say is true about the colors, it's quite hard to get it right.
I had a lot of different designs and looked very sweet, but it just didn't work well ingame, to make the story short :P

For the ones who tried em, you like the progress effect on detonation icons?
