Since we're on the subject of sounds, have you changed any of the melee impact material sounds so far or are they the same vanilla sounds?

So i found this in my hard drive if anyone from cmt or just anyone in general wants it for videos.

Great to see the community is still alive as ever.

omg I thought you were done with halo ce

woot no more messaging over live

Well, for the most part i am but that doesn't mean i wont want to check back every so often and see how things are going here in the community. This was the first forum i was ever a part of, how could i just ditch it completely?:)
Masterz had me beta test for a while a few months back but with school and then college i couldn't really stay ontop of that.

I dont get on live much since i dont have a xbox, but i will be getting the xbox one eventually for destiny:)

lol I remember that, I think you told me back in the summer while you were playing dirt 3. DarkB1ad3 is still playin strong in halo ce :p

any thing new?

:( I've been gone for so long and i'm sad to see nothing here.

NO!

Today is a great day, for I finally have my new computer. Hopefully now I can try to pump a new video out your guys way once I am done getting the last things in order. But here's some 2880x1800 goodness in the meantime ;)

good to hear!

friggin' finally, and that looks nice btw, can't wait to get my hands on it and post-shader the shift out of it. also masters, think we can at least address the issue of suppressed weapons some time, if u like my suggestions i think i could even help u to make it so that the normal, and suppressed variants function differently, but are still balanced. (expanding the player's tactical options, gameplay, and UNSC arsenal)

Whoa. So shiny.

yes finally

lol @ that hook cable thing on the front of the warthog.

The texture almost looks resemble to SorrySoldOut.

Normal Marines ? :(

I still feel that there is hope for this CMT spv3

I am almost 100.1% positive that those marines are placeholders.

I noticed that some textures don't have normals yet. Red is normals Blue is no normals

So a while back someone had suggested switching up the music, and had PMed me some concepts. Does anyone know who this was... or if this person is reading this, shoot me a PM?

Also new marines are in the works, and are very close to being done!

release it also after it is finish, to dropbox.. =D

aim for midtones in terms of environment textures; as it stands, the trees blend into the ground and cliffs and shapes are hard to define. let the shadows and lighting define the environment's shapes.
since OS only applies highlights and no real shading, you should make diffuse colors on shiny things darker with baked-in AO to compensate for the lack of shadows.
the bright shadowless models combined with the dark contrasted environment destroy any semblance of lighting whatsoever.

masterz, a request, can you change the shields depleted warning sound? that elite shield depletion warning sound you use for the player shields is giving me a headache whenever I play on legendary. something for future reference...

@masternoob, the environment is likely staying that way. The forerunner structure shaders from B30 will all be brought over to the rest of SPV3 when they are done though.

@RC, already been done. It annoys the crap out of my cat so I had to change it.

@waffles it's being done, btw I need to talk to you on xfire.

Since when did they hand out public betas?

sad face :( I didn't get to hear sarge at the beginning

why? it's not a personal opinion, it's flat-out bad design.

Kinda is a personal opinion if you think about it

not really, that kind of level design is spread throughout the entire vanilla campaign. for example, the first level used desaturated colors and mid-tone greys to contrast against the covenant's brightly colored armor and the marine's dark-brown plates. the weapons have high-contrast colors to stand out on all levels, and shapes are defined by the lighting. on the library level, the design is, again, desaturated blue to contrast against the glowing green enemies and the light grey allies. last level uses desaturated tan with dark ambiance to make all character models darker than the light fog to make them stand out. basic level design.

please people, don't start a flame war, lets just enjoy the temporary view... cuz its not as painful as hearing your shields be depleted in a cmt game. lol the good news is the encouragement to take cover

lol They even said thatmore information wont be out for a while. I don't consider a few months a while XD

vid-doc or it didnt happen :P

Man, these guys have gone dark for years at a time. Y'all are really worried about a couple months?

these are dark times in the halo realm. to azeroth! lol jk but seriously guiz give it tiem. lol patience

I'd personally be thankful that these people are so committed to doing what they do.

You have to learn the entire process of making a map in max, and suffer through the finicky nature of Tool and the HEK, and even opensauce, before you can really truly understand what these people go through to bring you guys what they bring you.

It's quite a feat.

Looking for a good challenge? Pick up max and start learning the ropes. Too expensive? Get gmax (Added challenge!) or get the student edition of 3ds. We're here to help with the tool's hissy fits, but only you can decide to do something.

personally i'm with master noob on this one, but i doubt it'll get changed. CMT is low on man power.
