Better HUD Select Icons

Hey Burnout, I am currently using the lua code of this mod to try and replace the smg1 hud select texture. But because this lua script follows a true/false function (alt texture/original texture), I have no idea how to code the script to solely replace the smg1 texture. Any ideas/help?

New update !
The HL2 style shouldn't revert to the traditional style anymore upon map reload.

Small change but makes the difference. Aethestics. Thanks for this mate !

The new alternate HL2 style was added !
Please refer to the instructions in the description to use it.

That is so awsome

Still a little more patience, the alternate HL2 set is almost ready ...
It'll be included in this addon, but you'll be able to choose between the 2 styles.

It looks good i can't wait to try it out

@TitaniumSpyborgBear, think of it like this : what does the very simple addon replace ? It replaces the basic HUD icons for the Camera, the Tool Gun and LUA SWEPs.

If you still don't understand, it replaces the generic LUA HUD icon for SWEPs.

Then why's it say so in the description?, I'm confused.
Burnout6010  [author] 7 Oct, 2015 @ 11:56pm 
@TitaniumSpyborgBear, there is no LUA SWEP.
RedChaosScrungle (They/Her) 7 Oct, 2015 @ 10:44pm 
There's a LUA swep?, where can I find it?
Burnout6010  [author] 7 Oct, 2015 @ 10:16am 
Okay, I created some new icons mimicking the HL2 style.
They're actually closer to CSS, but with HL2 colors, but whatever.

Now, I just need to figure out the LUA code, then I'm updating this addon.

Really? I prefer separate addons. Preserves space. But your life, your addons, your choice. Either way would be great :D
Burnout6010  [author] 6 Oct, 2015 @ 11:44am 
@Nixel, ah well, you're right. Anyway, I still have the originals so I'll try to make some HL2 styled ones when I get the time. My only problem would be that I would actually prefer using 1 add-on for all variations, with the choice given to the user. Guess I'll have to figure it out.

Don't worry, I've got an addon that literally just reskins the Airboat. This addon is probably way more useful than you think.
Burnout6010  [author] 6 Oct, 2015 @ 9:31am 
@Nixel, I'll think about it, just don't expect anything soon. I initially made this because I wanted to get rid of the original, overly cartoonish icons. Not saying your idea goes against my desire, I just don't have the time right now.

(Not to mention I want to expand on this addon. 3 icons is pretty weak, but I didn't really think when publishing. Oh well)

Could you make a different addon that replaces the texture with HL2 weapon style icons? Just take these pictures, add a new layer, trace over edges with a yellow line, and then remove the original layer.

@Inferna, I initially wanted to do the HL2 weapons too, but their icons don't work with textures, but with fonts, which I don't know how to work with.
Inferna 5 Oct, 2015 @ 3:00pm 
Could you make it for the half life 2 weapons?

Not bad..
Burnout6010  [author] 5 Oct, 2015 @ 2:13pm 
@Proto_OmniXenox, some people prefer not to, so I tried making it slightly more appealing to the eye.

This... this could be useful. this is VERY useful. Thanks!

Yes, I was very bored.
