What are the filenames of new colored Google maps markers?

Question

Is there a handy guide similar to this one for the newer Google markers that reside in the directory http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/markers2/ ?

So far I have been able to find these:

• Red marker with black dot

  http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/markers2/marker.png

• Green marker with letter A (can be any letter)

  http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/markers2/marker_greenA.png

• Marker shadow

  http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/markers2/shadow50.png

• Green downward arrow

  http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/markers2/arrow.png

• Arrow shadow

  http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/markers2/arrowshadow.png

For my particular application I'd like to find the green marker with a black dot, but so far no luck. Anyone else find other icons from this directory?

Concept221 has taken care of rolling the v3 map icons for 9 pre-rendered colors. They also wrote a program for creating custom ones.

https://github.com/Concept211/Google-Maps-Markers

colors: red, green, purple, orange, white, blue, yellow, black

characters: A-Z, 1-100, !, @, $, +, -, =, (%23 = #), (%25 = %), (%26 = &), (blank = •)

The border might be a hair thinner than the early v3 icons, but they seem to match well with the current ones (2017). Otherwise they look the same to me.

Could this URL be what you are looking for?

https://mt.google.com/vt/icon?psize=20&font=fonts/Roboto-Regular.ttf&color=ff330000&name=icons/spotlight/spotlight-waypoint-a.png&ax=44&ay=48&scale=1&text=%E2%80%A2

I found that the new google maps version uses some kind of service to build icons dynamically (not documented afaik). You can change the values in the URL to change the size/color of the icon and size/color/font/position of the text. In the example above, %E2%80%A2 corresponds to • (•)
