Hey guys, I made a mimic of the Halo CE blam! engine that i will never release for you...

Language C-C++



I use zbrush and photoshop extended for 3d texturing&painting.

3dcoat is a fantastic choice for texturing.

I would have to disagree with this as far as substance goes. Quixel I will say that holds true. I think substance allows you to get 60-70% of your model quickly textured to a fairly high degree, but it still affords you the ability to get in fine tuned details that you paint exactly where they need to be to get it perfectly polished. As far as software optimized for game development goes, I think it's the future honestly.

I have seen great things done with Mari as well, though it's generally used for movie production when you 40-50 4k maps per model. I personally wasn't thrilled with Mari, though I never gave it much of a shot either...

Wow good job, better than dano 2.0

I did some work for the Halo Online HUD that I'm porting:

I may choose to bend it upwards instead of pinching it in toward the center.

Looks nice, I agree with bending up.

wow nice

I hope Jesse-Senpai will notice me:



This IS NOT for CE

When ya gonna tag dat? Looked quite nice

Outer rim is way to curvy and the health bar doesn't match the rest of the icons.

Which secret project is that for?

Those scanlines look very nice. Too bad they can't be done dynamically in CE (but I assume they can for the intended project.)

How did you create your visor edge fade? I'm always curious to learn a new method.

Well, it's the same technique that 343i used for their HUD. They basically played with the RGB channels in an attempt to get a VHS-like look.

I have firstly drawn the visor edges, then I have duplicated the layer three times, obtaining four identical layers. The first layer, which is the colored one, should have an "Overlay" blending mode.

The other three layers should be full white. Then, in each layer, you need to delete all but one RGB channel, so that you have a red, green and blue copy of the visor edges. Their blending mode should be "Exclusion".

Now is the tricky part: since the three layers fully overlap each other, you should still see a full white result. Move the red layer about 1-2 pixels away from the others, and do the same with the blue layer, but in the opposite direction (I recommend a diagonal shift, so red goes towards top-right and blue towards bottom-left). Now apply a gaussian blur to all the four layers, and reduce their opacity.

The colored layer (the one with the "Overlay" blending mode) should be more opaque than the others. For this concept, the main layer uses a 70% value, and the other three a 18% value, but you can play with them and see how it comes out



Nothing that I can freely discuss here, unluckily, since it would be off-topic (it's not Halo related)

>find mocap file
>apply mocap file
>render

That's the beauty of it though. An atoms worth of effort for an eternities worth of reward. (or lol'ing)

I get it. You're still mad because I don't acknowledge you. Well then, here is the attention you wanted. I don't usually reply to boring people, but you seem desperate.

wow dude, what a buzzkill

Actually I don't either it's why I don't have a girlfriend yet

I genuinely lack interest in conversing with you, so maybe crying to Altheros about how you feel inferior to me and Kirby isn't going to solve anything. Lose the inferiority complex and dullness, then you might keep my attention for more than a few minutes.

clearly

I don't get it aren't you the guy who made sciophobia and said you were a marine or something

We need a longer gangnam style.

My secret easter egg for my map

More work on the .gbxmodel importer for Blender.



It'll hopefully drop within the next few days. This will be the first version that you will be able to install as a blender Add-on, eliminating the need to run the script from the text editor.

More options will be added eventually as I get each facet of the importer ported over and working.

Not being able to bump my thread about this with updates makes me sad.

What's wrong with your brain. If i want to do this, let me do it, thats why i own my copy of HCE and PC.



Might be able to import #markers and physics?
Edited by Halonimator on Apr 7, 2016 at 01:35 PM

Markers fall under the node category.

Nodes are bones (skin). Markers are effect location.

I stand corrected.

I got a little confused since they usually both utilize the same sphere primitive.

Speaking of which it would actually be easier to differentiate between the two if both nodes and markers utilized seperate styles of primitives.

EW, what kind of person stands st the computer? Especially with a laptop? (outside of mfg anyway, but those guys are weirdos anyway)

What is mfg?

Manufacturing


Or major failure gaming


Depends on who you ask.

Nodes are almost never cubes. Markers and Nodes do different things sparky, you of all people should know this

all that dank weed brah... it makes you aggressive you know

anyways good to see updates on the blender stuff. the day i can export bsp's from blender will be a glorious one
