Concept Is from Halo Legends.

This weapon will be for forerunner city.

It's a flood killer weapon. Called The Sanitizer.

Pic.

Well, it sure seems interesting! I will try working on it when I finish my MA5B.

I have about 30 weapon images I was to compile in to one bitmap for the a hud.

The bitmaps are 256x64

How can I compile all of these in to a single bitmaps with index for 30 different weapon for A hud?

Current progress on the MA5B, working on the body!

Impressive work. The bottom half could use a little more work in getting it to look more like the other heavy covenant launchers, like the handle and hole for both the FRG and Plasma Launcher.



The burst pistol is located on the maps of Season 1.5 of Spartan Ops. So far, they aren't on the archive site, but is there a way to find the second half of S.O. so as to obtain it?

@OashKoash What is S.O?

S.O. is Spartan Ops

that?

Apologies for the late response!

Yes, there is a turbosmooth on 3 iterations for everything. The barrel is unfinished, and I am unhappy with the way the receiver turned out, so I am redoing it. Thanks for the advice!

Wip Hud.



I have a question can I directly edit the size & width of the shield metter in the hud unit interface tag?

and also move it up a little?


Also does my visor have to be 1024x#1024 or can I make it bigr for widescreen?
because right now I'm using OS HUD display scaling.

Lining these things up is a little difficult as I have never attempted a HUD before.
Edit:updated progres



Edit. I'm pretty much done with the inside of the helmet. when I'm done with tweeking the shield metter some more I will work on the fade of the glass & brightness.
Then I will work on guns , ammo , nades and radar last.

That^ is crazy! What's do cut your hand off when you try and use it? The animations nuts. Looks cool are you planning on trying to animate any of the Halo 4 forerunner. weapons?

Also anyway I finished my shield meter.

hmm.. Is that because of the animations?

That would be a shame if you cant in game it but if you can that would be amazing.

I have no clue how many nodes you can have on a weapon. I am pretty good at everything but animations Is the 1 thing I lack on.

Are the bite of helmet part of the model?

Well I can totally help you with tagging that thing. If you like.


The enter helmet is part of the HUD if that's what your asking.
I think it's crazy that in all of halo history for the past 10 years I have never saw anyone do this before.

I saw people taking about it more than once but every time It was attempted.
It turned out to be an obstruction.
This is a mod so I just found out. I didn't know it when I Started. making it.
All I did was copy some tags from my halo 3 tags folder to start out with as a base
Then I started having trouble figuring out how the shield meter was made.
Turns out It's was Jessie's Halo 3 HUD I was using. so kutos to him for an innovative shield meter for halo 3 to start with.
I ended up making a new 2 layer .bitmap tag. 2 bitmap's 2 alphas .1 bitmap
For the shield.

I started out using rip'ed bitmaps from the HUD. I got with Adjutantt. But then slowly started recreating the HUD from Refrence and removing the riped bitmaps.

I Ended up with a nice .PSD file with all the layers in it. The enter helmet layer's where added after the alpha layer.

The color is added in a second layer bitmap not guerilla that's why I was having a hard time trying to figure out how to remake it.

But you know this is a great method because You could have a multi color shield meter this way.

I know you are thinking damn that looks a lot like halo 4 HUD. but truth is. The halo 4 HUD a little more in depth. And this is the result of much studying and research. the outline of this HUD is exactly the same out lining of the halo4 mc biped mark iv helmet.

The line was created on the out side of the helmet model.
This HUD fit's my halo 4 mc mark iv biped perfectly.
SAVINPVTMIKE is working on the biped. He's hoping to be done in about a week or so.

I still need to blur the lines and tweek some things. but I'm pretty happy with it.

Why cant you just remove some of the animations? I don't like the part that cuts your hand off anyway.

other than blades Poking you in the hand the animations look good.

Ya gota cut back a little you went over bord!

Well maybe It will be quicker the second time. sense you all ready know what your doing.

I been there!

I think this is a great time to bring up a good question witch is how the hell are we gona get forerunner weapons to assemble. correctly in game.?

I mean there is no way to have more than one 3p animation is there I'm a little noob where OS come in to play. so I don't know if it will help.

but if you pic up the shatter gun and the animations don't a assemble. correctly in game. well I think some people would be pretty disappointed.

That's just one reason why I haven't even so much as started trying to tag even one of the forerunner weapons.

Maybe a script could help? I.m not sure. like player get weapon play animation or something. IDK

These weapon's where animated buy world class animators. getting them in to Ce correctly is going to be pretty Tricky.

We definitely need crazy animations like that on the forerunner weapons.^^^

Nice

New Storm Trooper HUD In the works Just starting up!

I could never really get into psycho pass.

Can't see a Star Destroyer with this thing.

*throws Stormie helmet away*

Much better.

You know your very encouraging. :S This is not Exactly an easy task. I figured I'd give it a shoot.

The storm Troopers actually. had a very advanced HUD with holograms and what not.

I just wanted to try something new and custom with this new technique.

Figured a storm trooper would be a good. everything is subject to change.

The other HUD didn't look that good at first ether.


Edited by jackrabbit on Apr 23, 2013 at 06:56 PM

be reasonable, dude. nobody sees the top/bottom of the helmet from eye height.

Eeew. The halo 4 ports make me cry.

everything HUD related on this page is frightening... good lord.

yeah well the radar don't go in your eye.

the difference is that the radar is helpful, versus just obstructive

obviously not, I never said it did.

I'm just making fun of the Stormies.
They can't seem to hit anything important in the movies.

I know lol these guys are stuped. they are nothing with out there state of the art glactic empire HUD.
Black is totally clear Red will be a blur to the point where your can hardly see it.



Capturing the essence for the Storm Trooper helmet is not easy.

If you have any insight Please do tell.

idk really, I watched the first few episodes and I didn't find the setting and characters particularly interesting.
I've been watching Ergo Proxy instead and it's stellar so far.

please wear sunglasses and tell me if they only obstruct 1/3 of your eyesight.

You could also try flipping the faces so they face inward.
This had me for a while with my DMR, and just flipping the messed up faces fixed it.

Do the diffuse maps have an alpha channel?

Aha!

I've had a problem with that. The alpha might be causing it to be invisible.
