As long as BP holds his fp model files hostage like he is, then what you are is a Master Chief allied with the flood.

Btw, we can't release the demo without looking like retards as long as BP keeps the fp files hostage.

He'll send them when they're finished.

When that is however, I do not know.

I told you you need to set a date.

Umm, so yeah, I've been busy. And still will be for a while. No more progress on the map, and hey, haven't said hi in a long time lmao.

What do you guys think of the reticles? I'm modifying them so the white isn't overwhelming the red now.
Edited by Dwood on Sep 7, 2009 at 10:09 AM

Please tell me you're going to pop up at any second, and say "SURPRISE! THESE AREN'T REALLY GOING INTO THE FLOOD CAMPAIGN"

The reticules themselves are creative, but not something I'd want to fit in with flood.

True, Needs to be more fleshy....


btw: I've put them in to start the process of new reticles. I'm not making them final without major changes.

Do not make reticules remotley like those... they are overly complex and do the exact opposite of what they're meant to do.

and they look suprisingly familliar to the great battle of asis ones.

He's a Smart one!

oh, you caught me! I don't mind the reticles they look nice.

the reticles are too distracting.

Can't disagree there.

No reticles, then nothing distracts you?
I'm so clever.

And complex

dot much?

[06:48] Nidhog: Do me a favour. Tell Dwood we're not using those reticles.

reticules are way too colourfull, this aint peter pan in twixyland. i already tried to keep the colour scheme grim, don't mess it up.

remove the meter elements, you complained about me keeping my work "hostage" while you just mess it up whole when you get your hands on it, give me more reason/motivation to "release" my "hostages", the h1 meter really looks out of place.

reticules should be simple, they are made according to a system, the design isn't made randomly because it looked cool, they tell you how the projectiles spread.

also, they obscure view rather than mark view, enough reasons why they arn't good.

just leave the hud to me like i always did k =/

I dont know, I like those reticules, and theyd fit if maybe youd add a bit more of taht floody color

I HATE the flood, but playing as them, that's pretty cool, maybe FLASHLIGHT is now an Infection Form dispenser!?

Yo. He's on! :) We should talk to each other on xfire a bit more so we can actually learn to like each other.

You're also a bit late there. I'm just testing how they would look and people's response to them. Ofc They would be edited, however it seems not many people like how they would 'flow' with the mod. Another thing was, when I got them ingame, I didn't like them much either.

Btw: halfway done with 400+ sounds for the game. Someone needs to get me Flood sounds, if they can.

I never understood the meaning behind those reticules. Whats the point of having a marker to show you where your shooting if it blocks the vision of what your shooting at?
I might make a flood like one one day for poops and giggles.



Made a quick five minute one. It started out as a sword reticule but then I remembered you aren't using a sword so I guess it would still work with the AR.

<3 the style.

Eh, still too distracting. Just keep with the original reticles, and color them green/brown for color.

well it would be more see through in game but I agree I did get a little crazy. I kinda like the veins though.

It's a good design, but I think just making the reticules curvy/pointy, as well as flood-style colors, would be much more efficient.

i approve of the style, blends my hud design, someone actually got the right style and feel.

and no, this one doesnt obscure your target too much at all, atleast for this sword, i'd yet have to see how you would do other smaller reticules, but i really like this one.

add me on xfire, sar93, this stuff is worth a chat lol.

e1 im gonna put that reticule ingame now, i'll post a cap in a few minutes.

e2: why does this remind me of a soviet logo? lol
Edited by BeachParty clan on Sep 10, 2009 at 11:55 AM

maybe you should have all the crosshairs like this?

Yeah Ill reinstall xfire and talk to you at some point. Let me know if you want me to try a few more.
xfire= mcwesalot

why are there green cotton balls on my sword reticule? :(

Because you touch your self at night :) The real reason is because I wanted to make it look like it was actually part of the characters body.

If someone gives me all the original reticules for the weapons being used I could see what i could do with them.

ps: i added you BP
Edited by wesman on Sep 10, 2009 at 08:42 PM

Looks good. Not too distracting and fits in with the Flood theme.

I'll send you all my Halo 3 reticules at some point then, I can't work on them throughout the week, good thing that it's almost weekend.


e1 quickly put it ingame, have to go to schoolz now.
