Here are some of my current HUDs:

H3 Marine HUD:



ODST HUD:



I'm going to make ammo meters later, these are just temporary.

(Yes, the pictures are on a Mac... but I've converted it from my test map that was made in CE)

Take out the radar on the marine HUD and it will be teh 1337.

did you just F wording copy\took\trace my visor?
Edited by lil_bankhead on Aug 31, 2009 at 03:10 AM

Sure, I could do that.

@Bankhead: Nope, I didn't even know you made a Marine HUD.

Marines don't have hud

Eh, well maybe bungie will give them it at one point, but its physically illogical

I wonder if someone will make a Halo CE marine hud, with all the information on the green chip.

They could have a HUD, you never realy know.

They have a HUD in Halo 1, you think in the future they'd scrap it :I ofcourse not, this time it just covers the whole view.


i thought it was yours too since the form is completely the same...
but anyhow, mb just coincidence

take out radar, remove fake gametype icon and remove the fake compas overlays, since even if it was possible in halo 1, it wouldnt ever work that way or be usefull in any way. the logo is a nice idea though. redo shield meter, looks pretty scrappy right now. recolour objective marker, resize the crosshair.

man, it's in the detaills.

Looks way different.

Yeah, Roflcopers one actualy looks like the halo 3 marine visor.

Take away that Radar and Health Meter,

You should also try to add marines FP arms,

However, i really like how you put the UNSC logo into the HUD

Marine HUD:

Either don't have the radar, or center it and don't skew it.

Add a "biomonitor" if you don't have a radar, which shows heartbeat or something. That would be really cool.

Maybe add some more scrolling, useless information to make it look cooler?

A TIF file cant be posted as an IMG. You have to convert it to PNG or JPG.

what are you talking about it up there!

I can see it fine. Go firefox!

Why marines can't have radar?, they have a computer too I guess..

IE nubs, FF rules

true true

8 but without the little dot thing.

After you edited it. dur.

Looks like a tif to me still.

Nope I didn't even edit nothing I just misspelled something and yes it .tiff so you PHAIL MAN THAT A BIG PHAIL IT CAN READ .TIFF!!! XD

it is a tiff

I wanted to make a HUD :) This is it so far

The gun belongs to H3MT. (thanks veex)

overlay line is nice 'n' sharp, just the way i like it by my standards

top inner corners are eww, make the corners sharper
top alpha is horrid, basically i see 2 circles emerging from it as fuxed gradient. bottem gradient is also noticeable, i could draw you in paint where the gradient exactly is, which is bad since it should be fluid and not that obvious

shield meter is nice, as a base. needs gradient, if there is a weak gradient then it's impossible to see through the smurf blue colour, but i do like the space between the meter and outline to be sharp

yea keep it up dude, i see sum good stuff, but try keeping your standards high. what i see from this is that you have potential, but you ignored minor detaills since you thought it wasnt that major. but it is, every detail on a hud is. dont let your guard down man, would be a shame

lastly, that plasme rifle has some serious UV error



in other news, i've updated my hud a bit because i forgot to add in the flashing element for the shield bar content, which halo 3 seems to do aswell

obvious pic is obvious, but still i'd point it out before people cry out loud that the shield bar isnt the right colour, it happens because its transparent ofcourse lulz

http://i27.tinypic.com/72gdb4.png <-- higher res, HM preview size is fail


i'll be replacing my weapon icons with more true to h3 icons, these dont look alike it at all so im quite bothered by that. still need a new font aswell.

The width looks stretched, and like BP said, the top alpha is D:

How did you do that?

I got my flashing, but I can'y get rid of it when it doesn't flash.

Its an extra bitmap I believe.

Also, do the gradient as a fraction of a circle, not surrounding the meter. It looks better that way. Also, then it fits any part of the visor.

You do know that the head is not bigger than the visor. Increase the visor size, have it stretch off the screen. And fix the outlines.

Agree

But also fix that shade on the outline and make it match for the outline instead if it looking like it a T or something...

You're gonna need to lower the opacity of that visor unless you want the user's vision completely blocked.

Otherwise the shape is pretty okay

scale it up and stretch it out horizontally. Thats the only way it will look acceptable.

With the help pf BPC and looking over some CMT tags, I've figured out how to properly construct a secondary trigger grenade launcher with a limit and a working hud.
