Does anyone know if its possible to put a laser on a weapon that can act like a aimer or something? i do not know how to make a laser for a weapon. maybe i can put it on the pistol where there is that laser point thing, but how do i make the laser?

Or just put the laser on the weapon. Im pretty sure it's in attachments, just open the pistol that has the laser in guerilla and copy some of the info over to the weapon. Im not sure exactly but you'll figure it out. Sorry if this didn't help much..

I did this with a weapon before. I took a sentinel beam, gave it no damage, and attached it to a weapon as a secondary fire.

problems are the laser comes out of the middle of the screen, and you can't throw grenades.

Make your laser projectile, probably from the sentinel beam, give it no damage, then add a secondary trigger to the pistol (I think there is one already, but it doesn't have a projectile.) So add your projectile in there, make it so you have infinite ammo, and you're done.

Ingame, right click and hold to summon your lazer powerz.

Or you could open the Cyborg files in Geurilla. Something like that. Then you modify the Flashlight so its a narrow beam and red. I believe its that simple.

So is it possible to put a node on a weapon and have a constant laser come out of it. So that it hits walls and all, accurately.

secondary trigger wont work right, if you turn it on, it will make burn holes on walls from the sentinel beam, and enemies when hit with the laser, will make that ping sound. Make sure you take out all the effects, and only leave what makes the projectile.

ok good ideas for the flashlight, but wont that then replace all the other weapons too with the laser beam flashlight?

so then how do i just put it normally on a weapon liek the resident evil halo map, not replacing secondary trigger and not replacing grenades, so hwo do i just put the laser on a weapon. when u click and go to the R.E. halo map, u see in the pictures that some of the weapons have the laser pointers i want to know how to make for a weapon, so hwo do i do that, just putting it on a weapon.

so what, if its part of a projectile tag, and that tag is used as a secondary trigger. it will do everything like a normal projectile, just without the damage

wouldnt that just replace the grenades? well can any1 just help me on just putting the laser aimer on the weapon, not by replacing the grenades or using the secondary trigger, just putting it on the weapon like RE halo map.

I think ive figured out. Everyone is familiar with the MA5B Assault Rifle, Correct? That bullet hose most people hate. Well i have a different view on the gun. Not to say its the best. But not the point.

So, everyone remember that the MA5B had the Flshlight built in? So weapons with a built in Flashlight shone from there and not the side of the Cheif's head (though it drew from the same power source). And it even moved when you reloaded.

So if you can put a node in a weapon, and assign to it a perfectly narrow, cylindrical, beam of red light (though other colors are possible) to it with infinite range and no lens flare, dynamic lighting, infinite range (or at least a really long one) to it, pointing perfectly straight. Then you should have a laser beam. This would always be on when its held, and the light would even point up when you reloaded (assuming the muzzle is pointied upward at time of reload).

Imagine putting a laser on the pistol. Then when you flipped it... 'nuff said.

thats pretty good idea but i rekon the flashlight is the best idea. Not because i made the idea, because you will still have the ability to throw nades and can turn it on and off.

i think i just found out a way to do it but its not the flashlight, well u need the flashlight sometimes in dark places, and the laser wont help. Anyways ok im just studying the R.E. halo map's weapons and just add the extra nodes and markers and add a widget for the weapon and extract the laser from RE halo map. then u got a weapon with laser.

nice job keeefers. and if i was a flashlight i kninda would be worse coz when u are in dark places it wont make a difference. but im only saying this as a suggestion in a mediumish light place....not like a desert and not in a50 (exterior) but i kinda lighted place like longest, chiron (putput) or hang em high

yea i know but its also a good idea for te flahslight, wonder how if its possible to make the flashlight and make the laser for it together, cause if im using the laser pistol, like wouldnt every one be able to see im using the laser pistol? so yea, its better if i can turn it on and off

does any1 know hwo to add a flashlight and another custom thing for flashlight use? like can i add 2 sections for the flashlight part of the weapon?

the magun(unmodyfiyed) has a marker called "#laser" theres a widget in halo called laser

yes on the pistol it does have a marker called #laser. It must have been thought of to be in game but I think bungie just ran out of time. Like they did on all 3 games. They should have a little bit more organization
