Icons for 2D Map Designs As many of you forgers are familiar with, its sometimes a good idea to include a 2D plan version of your newly forged map to help others get a better visual understanding of it before downloading. Whilst recreating the map perimeters in any design program (i use Flash for example) is pretty straight forward, it becomes annoying having to make up labels and add keys where the weapons, equipment and vehicles are meant to be. To make things easier for any 2D map designer, i have made icon sized versions of all weapons, equipment and vehicles from good quality images on the net. Simply, all you need to do is after you've made your map perimeter design, just copy any of the following icons and paste them on your plan. Important Note: Due to there being a limitation on the amount of posted images per thread, i had to obviously continue the thread into three posts, before anyone starts bleating. Weapons Assault Rifle Battle Rifle Beam Rifle Brute Shot Covenant Carbine Energy Sword Flamethrower Fuel Rod Gun Gravity Hammer Machine Gun Turret Magnum Mauler Missile Pod Needler Plasma Cannon Plasma Pistol Plasma Rifle Rocket Launcher Sentinel Beam Shotgun (Continued) SMG Sniper Rifle Spartan Laser Spiker Equipment Frag Grenade Plasma Grenade Spike Grenade Fire Grenade Active Camo Overshield Custom Trip Mine Bubble Shield Power Drain Flare Radar Jammer Regenerator Portable Gravity Lift Deployable Cover Special Equipment Skull (Continued) Flag Bomb Vehicles Banshee Chopper Elephant Warthog Ghost Hornet Mongoose Prowler Scorpion Wraith So there it is. No more annoying labelling and just conveniant copying and pasting! Hope that helps you map plan designers out there. - Zombiesteve77
This could help hugely with future maps (if i come to even make them!). I genuinely think that this should be stickied.

Yo, thanks for these man. I am starting to plan my maps in 2d design, thank you for these, i will use them for weapon spawns. And yes this should be stickied
Very nice of you, keep this up and you'll be hit with some purple. This will help a lot of people. +rep.
Great job, I've been looking for good icons to use +rep Sad to see that this was at first overlooked.
These look like they're from Halo 2 (look at the Beam Rifle and Plasma Pistol). No matter. Good job, you are very helful. Hopefully I'll use these in one of my maps. Positive rep for you! Edit: Sorry, necro-post. I thought the date said 9th October, not 10th September. **** happens.
