I said Superintendent HUD, not ODST. =\

oh my bad

Have you made a H1 Hud? A H2 Hud? A Marathon Hud? The Pre Halo Hud?

I have this idea for a COD format , but halo styled HUD.
Radar on top right handside of screen , grenade and ammo meters at bottom left and right of screens , sheild meter on left hand side (Middle) portion.
Something like :
| |+...................................................................... /------\
| |+......................................................................| @ |
| |+......................................................................\_____/
| |+
| |+
| |+
| |+
\ \...................................................................../-----------\
----------.........................................................../ (Number).\
4 @ 4 * \________________________________/(Weapon)....\

Yeah , i know , the sketch sucks , and it looks like a face.
All the .'s are to keep it in place =L

Halo series, marathon isn't one of it.

I don't know how the pre-halo series work so i can't work on it, same like ODST, i only started working on it when i saw gameplay vid showing the hud in action.

H1 hud, dude don't make me laugh.

H2 hud, yes I made one, uses h1 ammo meters, but it looks fine for the rest. and even though, it's been released on this site, so i can add to my own hud, i won't use it anymore though.

So HUD's I got: H1, H2, H3 Spartan - Elite - Oracle - ODST
non halo related HUDs: CoD 4, FEAR 2.


Here, take a drink, the glass is empty but heck.

Halo and CoD are entirely different, I don't know which cod you mean, but mixing it up is not a good idea... unless you mean just the vital things like a grenade icon etc
I made one but I still like the halo feel... Maybe wait till Modern Warfare 2 comes out, it promises alot more features, prolly a better hud too. hopefully like GRAW bolded =3


ohohoh, there's my idea, i should make a GRAW hud =P meh maybe later

So it seams, I'm the only one who really likes this?

I like it but meh, it's CMT's HUD, they use it in SPv2 =/

the idea of making it bold is nice though, every hud is bold in most games nowadays, FPS that is

Even newer visor.
Edited by jesse on Jul 21, 2009 at 07:18 PM

It's curved Halo-3 style.

A visor is Bold, I meant the same and you know that =/

That, and the thick line stops a few mm off the edge only leaving the thing line, I have eye for details =P


Finally got a bit of my darn lazy thing and made every ammo meter, but i yet have to set them all up.
However I've also finally set the bitmaps up I had some time already





By bitmaps I mean these ammo indicators for grenades and guns, just to say the obvious =P

16:9 i was aiming for a widescreen hud, everyone else is doing a 4:3 hud.


Multitex overlays no the primary screen arn't possible in halo ce, we're bound to using static

I was going to do that at some point. >:(

a few of the meters i have.

COD FP hands?, anyways the visor looks decent.

i want those hands...

ironically, i have the model, but i'm too lazy to rig it =/

Jesse: I like the visor on your hud. It looks like it's not so visible that it becomes extremely annoying.

Halo does not render at 16:9. Your bitmap will be shrunken to 640x480 and then stretched to fit your screen.
Within the Halo 1 engine, you will see no difference between a 16:9 HUD overlay and a 4:3 HUD overlay.

-scratched post-

e1: duh ofcourse the overlay doesnt look different, it's an overlay dude =/
even in halo 3 it doesn't look different.
tell me, what's your point again?
Edited by BeachParty clan on Jul 26, 2009 at 09:37 AM

Im curious,
has anyone here managed to make it, so when you die, you can flip through different plays with a simple click of the mouse?
Like in halo 3.

No. I don't think you can do anything when you're dead. If you could, then I could write a script, but I can't make it work when you're dead.

it's already like that when you die.

make 10 teamkills without getting banned, and then die. during the time you have to wait to respawn you'll get a chasecam.

not sure if you can swap between players though.

thing is, you have to wait some time before you get chasecam, thus teamkilling to make your spawn longer

May aim alphas downward for the meter.

what.

Well I figured out how you guys can move the reticle and the bullet impact point down. Just gotta look into a few more things for you.

I can do it in HMT but i have no real reason to yet because i don't have any animations pointing lower.


and i kinda, um... forgot :x
Edited by jesse on Jul 27, 2009 at 10:00 PM

Moving the reticle is simple.

Moving the firing offset and reticule is both simple.

I did it before, noone noticed?

Anyways, I measured it by hand to get the correct height, perfect to h3 now, the firing offset is also perfect, but only if it fires from camera. if it fires from gun origins it aims towards it making it angle the wrong way at a certain distance.

okaaay i'll post it here too.

firing offset.

It very easy to do but I kinda forgot eh eh :(

I'm not talking about the firing offsets or reticle. Moving the firing offset is stupid, having bullets come bellow the bottom of the camera? Also doesn't it mess with the auto aim?

auto aim is not vital, merely usefull. and no, it doesn't mess it up.

and whatever you guys wanna do, i just showed you i did it, that's all, i'm a machinima freak, i wouldnt care less even if it shot bullets out of your ass, i'm using weapon origins in movies.

Weapon origins make it harder to actually hit someone.

Do you even know what the autoaim does? What do you think makes it so much harder to shoot with an unzoomed sniper compared to another gun. Do the bullets when you change the offsets still go to location 0, 0 when fired?

Not for my carbine, it would shoot just under the reticle, meaning it would not hit square on the middle of the reticle.

I have auto aim values off so that it hits right in the reticule, live with it, or find another way, which you prolly did since you have such an attitude to me :U


ma-chi-ni-ma
means i dont give a shiz about how it plays, if it looks fine it works well enough for me.

I just go for looks. Bare with the lack of autoaim, it's a fair tradeoff for a more genuine experience to me, apart from the RIDICULOUS autoaim values used in halo 3.

Here you go.


;D
