What about the cloak wraith on downflow? Same basic principle?

Cloaking device on the phantom. Epic win.


Alot of computers have different ways of rendering cloak... so avoid it. Some computers just make the object Disepear while my friend's crappy old comp turned the object Pure white

Old graphic cards cannot refract. Also what is protected? Its easy to rip from CE maps protected or not.

I was right about the bitmap. The base map goes invisable, and all that's left visable is a duplicate geometry with a water shader. An inverted function controls the base map, the picture of the wraith mapped over the geometry

Cool bobbysoon. Could the same be applied to another vehicle? Like in the tachikoma, too.

Correct. If a function is available, it can be used to wire the flashlight to the shader

If you've see that video I made with Matooba's heavyScorpion dropping landmines, then you've seen the vehicle flashlight function in effect :o

lol the flashlight on vehicles does work. if you go into darkness with a hog you see it

then you lost it.

the hog has built in lights that are turned on and off based on driver power which is turned on and off when someone enters / exits the driver seat of the vehicle

thats not a flashlight, its headlights. thats made with attachments and is turned on automatically when the driver enters the warthog

Ah, damn. That's... wait- what did you delete? And how did deleting it bring back the jets?
And couldnt you download the most recent beta and work from that? Speaking of betas, why havent I got a link to one? :P

K, just a few personal opinions and tips:

You might want to make the Scarab and Turret laser projectiles less homing, cuz it's annoying when a huge laser is heading for you, and you frantically pull up only to have the laser suddenly jump and appear outta nowhere and blast you outta the sky.

and make the Scarab less powerful, or better, easier to destroy, cuz you get really demoralized when you just pelted a Scarab with hundreds of missiles directly on the cockpit, and then nuked it with a direct hit, only to have the smoke clear to reveal you didn't make a scratch and its continuing to blow you and your teamates to bits....

and if possible, less glitchy, like the human ship, which 70 % of the time is half there and half gone.

and last, make it easier to get to the bases, especially the human one, cuz it's confusing and hard to find certain places...in the enemy base, on foot, with the entire friggin enemy team unloading everything at you from a pelican or LS, and then survive to come into some obscure room with no way out and some blue guy standing there with an armed c4 on his butt

Maybe.

and if possible, less glitchy, like the human ship, which 70 % of the time is half there and half gone. What exactly do you mean?

and last, make it easier to get to the bases, especially the human one, cuz it's confusing and hard to find certain places...in the enemy base, on foot, with the entire friggin enemy team unloading everything at you from a pelican or LS, and then survive to come into some obscure room with no way out and some blue guy standing there with an armed c4 on his buttRofl. Fixed.

I have to say making the terrain snowy and adding fog actually looks really good! Nice Job Egg, now if you could make the ground a little more interesting? Maybe add some rock formations so players could dodge enemy fire.

im back...muahaha
1- cloaking phantom= awesomely balanced(due mainly to its inaccurate fuelrods and slowness)
2- other covie vehicles cloaked... sounds fun but only if its the vehicles that make easy targets
3- egg... i thought you fixed the "oops i just deleted nearly everything" problem... also... they are right in the fact that more cover is needed on the ground[note that i havent played the newest beta yet if anything has been chenged...]
4- the odd weapons in that map have there own issues; also just about the only good thing in that map is the well secured hidden room... note: most of my opinions dont matter anyways so ignore me if you have a different opinion ^_^

well at least someone thinks so...
1- has anything been updated since the last beta release?
2- can anyone set up a dedicated server for this map please?
3- can you give the human side a needle-guided missile launching platform [other than the hog] or even a longer renged and faster moving version of chaos gulch's rocket launcher?
