Not in the way your thinking of. That's done with fps animations and texturing, which i don't think any body really wants to work on since of perodical changes to each guns spread from time to time.

It's a shame

And a basic near dof/blur, like in this picture:



If I remember correctly, Halo Reach use it on weapons

Well the fake way is at least, Reach and H4 do it all in the HUD tags themselves.

I think we should be able to board and kill the sentinels to look more badass.

Is that Crysis?

That's because they modified the engine to work like that -_-

you would need a shader that moves the camera in an arc, rendering each segment, and then blurs the renders together in real time. while the h1 engine could possibly handle it, good luck importing a custom shader into the game.

Masters1337, can you share with us just one more image of TSC: Evolved?

argh, DOF hurts mah eyes :'(

FTFYG

It is possible... but on CE, its on the shader-part. I had an idea once, that you'd make one part of the crosshair on shader and another as part of the weapon_Hud_interface. only 1 part of the crosshair turns red, unless you make the shader part of the crosshair red when you fire the weapon.

Not that we are making any decisions yet, but how often do you guys use CMT Extras, and if you do, which do you find are the best features.

Game Saving when you die

Never really got a chance to. In A30 I never really used it.

Making your own checkpoints -that feature's been a lifesaver for me ever since SPV2!

Halo 4 watcher assassination... it doesn't get cooler than that.

the watcher assassination was ok not the coolest imo though. Out of the 3 crawler assassinations my favorite is where the spartan stabs the crawler in the face then kicks him.

IDK if we'll want to do assassinations with them, or use player "driving" to let you grab one and use it as a support weapon. Arteen and I discussed a while back how to make the sentinel beams into something more unique.

as cool as it may be there are some cooler looking assassinations out there imo.

Like bashing someone to death with an old shoe.

I was gonna say bashing someone to death with a frying pan but meh.

As expert encounter and gameplay designer, I'd like to make a recomendation for this projects.
I think it would be a great move to incorporate this soundtrack into your campaign, combined with the beach assault, this will definitely be a great hit:

This is of course, just my expert opinion.

Lode, if you're an expert than I'm a master. Enough said bro. >:U

I like the knight assassination where chief steals his sword and RAMZ IT DWON HIZ THROWT!!!

Expert opinion?
Can't tell if trolling. Keep that stuff out of my Halo

I don't think your one sloppy firefight map qualifies you as a master.
And no trolling, hardstyle could be very refreshing on games. Although I realise it's not really known over in the USA, people prefer rap and hip-hop there apparently.

rap and pop are the two genres i most despise, with country coming a quick third

i mostly listen to and assorted bunch of electronic music and rock.

this is getting a little off topic don't you think?

Lol, no bro. That's just what you see from living in Belgium.

I made a firefight map? :o

EDIT: OH, that map. That map was a test map. I haven't released anything worthwhile at all and a lot of gameplay I've helped with or worked on is not in HCE nor has it been released because I'm too much of a perfectionist/artist. Anything on this site submitted under my name was either done when I first began, done by someone else without my permission (from Megaupload :X), or was a reference sheet for anyone seeking a quick document for AI commands. That's it though.

Masterz, has anything new happened at all? I'm curious because I have been completely out of loop for a while and we both know how searching through these threads for answers is....

I know we want to do an update soon with some pictures, but I will say we've been doing lots of weapon experimentation with new weapon ideas that our testers have taken very favorably. We also are investigating new things to do with the fact bipeds can now be entered.

As far as maps go, B30: Evolved's geometry is nearly in a state that can be explored start to finish. Arteen and I continue to work on A30 and we may be replacing one of the boarding action areas in A10. As of now, when compared to the SPV2 A10 public beta, we have cut 4 bsps and added 2 new ones, with this next one being the 3rd new one with 5 cut. A50 got a huge boost in performance the other day, and a new vehicle encounter is being added to the gravlift.

It's a new vehicle to our tagset and can only work on .yelo maps. One cool thing we're doing is making its primary weapon an actual weapon tag with a model, so it will be easy for anyone to make a variant of it once the tags are released. It's current weapon has 3 modes of fire.

Well why not? It would make the level more interesting in comparison to the major facelifts that the other maps are getting.
