How to view the map icon as a textdraw? - Juvanii - 05.07.2014
Hello guys, i saw in some servers that they're using textdraws to explain what is "some icon" means on the map.
Example: Let's say we want to explain what is ID 18 map icon means (the pistol icon)
So they use it like: The *pistol icon* that you see in map is the ammunation, go and get some guns.
They show *pistol icon* as an icon, how to do this?

Edit: I'm not exactly sure If this is what you want, but that's what I understood from your post.

They're using sprites.

You'll need a sprite browser and a tutorial on how to create textdraws using sprites. They're found in the links given below.

The map marker icons that are shown in textdraws are objects (shown here), not sprites. Thus you need TextDrawSetPreviewModel.
