rockets>hunters end of story.

my, my, do you have a temper? fine, leave your hunters invincible, and see if people ever use them. its a shame people never take good advice when it's given to them.

you make no sense whatsoever

lol ill see if i can fix the tags for you (:
seems easy enough

it's easy, make the skin multiply the damage of all weapons, while armour weakons it, that way when they are hit by rockets the area effect damage will kill them, but weapons such as assault rifles have to find a crack in the plating to do alot of damage

that would be a lot better then making them immune to all weapons

lol i want to see a hunter crack effect (:

Actually, modify your rockets to do more damage to hunter shield, armor, and skin. Look at the hunter's collision model too; it might actually be your tagset that's making them invulnerable.

The Hunters have always challenged me in how to do them without making them overpowered, yet not underpowered either. I definitely think they need more Health compared to Halo 1's (and the removal of the orange area being a headshot zone) and they definitely need to defend themselves more. However, remember that hunters are not agile units; they can be fast, but not agile (they take shots more than they evade shots). I'll work on the Hunters too to see what I get, but I want to use CMT's Hunter biped mainly because its big enough to fit the AI want to make them into. I always want to make Hunters more powerful against Vehicles at close range, like Halo Reach's.

you got cmt's hunters workin? the big ass ones? zomfg wen did tis happen?

also good idea with the rocket projectile idea, but the other way would be better in his situation due to the fact he's going to release the ai alone and someone might not fix the rockets themselves and throw them into a map unknowingly, having catastrophic results.

i couldnt get the specops in lol.

I can get the Red ones working, but the Blue ones are still messed up for some reason. I'm assuming its the bitmaps since the weapons and other parts of the tag are okay considering they coincide with the Red Hunter. I might just use that one for testing reasons since they are virtually the same thing.

No, Rockets being ineffective is only proportional to the collision and projectile tags. The AI should not rely on the collision (except obvious cases regarding materials and headshot nodes) and anyone should have the knowledge of fixing a tagset to match the AI.

okee what do you think you can do with keyes?

yep

oh yeah, when i last played cmt (yesterday) i dont remember but i dont think the brutes melee'd

so im confused. AI can just be added to any map and tada, you have AI? no scripting for them required?

k

What about Jackal Snipers?

Infact could you to work with CMT's

oh, well it sucks. and they can flip. arent they like a few tons?

hope you can rig, model, and texture then

I am starting a script from scratch. it includes the dodging abilities plus some that are in Halo Reach

Does anyone have the tag that is being developed im working on the power drian powerup tag from halo 3 maybe i can help!

I want to help with the Godarm animations has anyone tried to start MAYBE I CAN HELP!

you dont no how to actor edit? lol i know a bit. actually a lot.

I KNEW GOD GAVE YOU THEM!!!!

oh i thought you said something like "i have no idea how to do this" referring to actors

oh yeah im almost sure thats linked to the animations.

-avoid friends' line of fire
-avoid all enemy attack vectors
-dive into cover chance (note: this is the probability the AI will run the dive animation when moving into cover, not how often the AI will move behind over)
-emerge from cover chance (note: this is the probability the AI will run the emerge animation from cover)
-dive from grenade chance (note:this is the chance of the AI using the barrel roll animation, not actually the probability of evading grenades)
-All sub-sections listed under the Section named defensive.
-Utilize the firing position Section too.

how do you increase there speed? and can someone give me an estimate of how far a world unit is (tell me something that's about as long as a world unit).

oh btw how did you disable the hunters run? is running just their way of berserking or what?

A standard fragmentation grenade has a maximum blast radius of approximately one world unit.

a spartan is 0.7 world units.

It's in their animations. You can give them random increments of speed in the biped tag though (it says you can, but I'm not sure if it really works).

im pretty sure the hunters use those,.

so do you think I could modify the movement animations of an elite to make it's feet move faster?

i feel like i modded speed within the actor variant. also in the globals you change your speed lol. but with animations you can do anything. are animations hard to get ingame?

When I load up the actor variant for the minor elites, sapien crashes (and a_hobo). Is it just me that it happens to? and what should I do about it?
