WeaponIcons v1.4e L4D1

Detailed weapon/item icons for L4D1

Left 4 Dead 1 version of my Weapon icons

Installation:

1) Extract "materials" folder from archive into your game folder.
2) Open left 4 dead\left4dead\pak01_dir.vpk with Notepad++ (can be found on here)
find line
$baseTexture "vgui\hud\iconsheet"
change to
$baseTexture "vgui\hud\iconsheed"

find line
$baseTexture "vgui\hud\iconsheet2"
change to
$baseTexture "vgui\hud\iconsheed2"

note: iconsheet2 only has some little changes to few survival icons, it's not that necessary.

3) Save and play

Works with all aspects and resolutions.

    Posted by iMr.Grey Looking freaking awesome :) Do a version for L4D2.It will be much appreciated.

    He already did, before this one I think..

    They are both on the main site.

    On another note, are you going to make icons for items?

    Maybe your archiver extracted files wrong way (it often happens to me, program creates additional folders when extracting). Check that file iconsheed.vtf is placed in Steam\SteamApps\common\left 4 dead\left4dead\materials\vgui\hud folder. If didn't help, check again if you changed the right line (and done it with Notepad++). I wish you have your problem fixed!

    I think they are fine as they are...Simple and readable. I just wanted to add details to guns.In L4D2 I even left most of melee weapons icons untouched (only made some parts darker),and my new Chainsaw icon looks kinda weird and I was really doubting should I leave it there, or get back to original one.What can be more simple & genious, than a square with cross on it (healthpack)lol?
