In terms of the website graphics. I find that outerglow's like that look cheap and not too nice. my opinion though .

I agree. It would look more outstanding with the design used if there was no glow. The design's brilliant but the glow seems pointless and takes away the boldness of the design.

If you're still taking suggestions I'd like to request a working feature to record our own custom animations. There's an app out there that already supposedly does it but it only works for...well Kirby as far as I know. It does not work accurately for many other users.

So yeah, that feature would be a great addition imo.

The recorded animation app works 100% fine. The only problem I've ever had with is that when I did a warthog animation the gravity of the hills still effected the hog (I could fix) so the hog was a tad off by the end.

The "gravity" of the hills?
And yeah I forgot about you, but the app simply does not work 100% fine at all which is illustrated very simply by the fact it does not work for multiple people I know.

If there is a simple fix to the "gravity of the hills" (whatever you may mean with this) which works for all vehicles including dropships and even bipeds (yes even those don't work correctly for me) then I would like to know it.

The slope of the hills effect the warthog's movement. I'd juts have to edit like globals or the vehicle??? Anyway, the program has always worked for me 100% of the time and everything I do now is done in recorded animations instead of command lists.

Could you be more specific?
It still strikes me as odd though, essentially what the program supposedly does afaik is simply record button inputs. So when playing a recording it should be exactly the same as the recording itself since it would be applied to exactly the same vehicle you used to make the recording.

I'm still fairly certain it's computer-dependent unless your fix is effective, a fix you did not clearly describe either and why it should work.

I don't have to fix anything. All my bipeds stuff works 100%.
You install the thing, press the record button. Move around, unpress it and inject it into the map. Mine even works perfect in sapien, where in the description is says it probably wont!

Well then what I said simply is true. The app does NOT work correctly for all people who use it, which could be a PC-related issue. The app might not be optimised for all PC platforms or something idk, but it does NOT work for everyone correctly.

Which brings me back to my original request to the guys who are making the application in this thread: "I would love to see a fully working feature to make our own custom recorded animations that does not only work on a handful of people their PC's".

Then your pc sucks.

Yes Dratt, my PC sucks along with those of several other people I know including Higuy.
Owait, it's the app that sucks.

I am indeed questioning your credibility, noob. If you need to reverse engineer asm code, rather than writing your own code, that suggests you have no knowledge of what you are doing therefore copying someone else's work (bungie / gearbox).

Not to mention halo was written in C, I see no benefits from reversing 10 year old code unless you do not know what you are doing. Yes reverse engineering was beneficial to halo since by reversing the code you are able to modify the game to do something that it shouldn't. In this cause though, you are creating an entirely independent application, the only things you should need to reverse are the structures and some specifics (read: specific to halo).

In your blog post you said this program was going to do EXACTLY what halo does, implying that you are going to reverse a substantial amount of halo's assembly. So to emphasis my point I over exaggerated.

Good day sir.

You sir are a troll. Going around and calling credible people noobs is going to get you nowhere in life. He has no knowledge of what he is doing? Are you kidding me? You can't even reverse your attitude, I would love to see you reverse the kind of things he can.

He said to PM him, please keep it at that. Please stay on topic.

HEKAIO FRONTEND CHANGES:
Fixed editprofile functions, you can now edit your profile.
Working on individual profiles so you can share your profile link
Referral system is now working and online (rep points counted)
Reputation system is on its way. Points for doing things on the site such as uploading, commenting, referring, etc.
Fixed a bug with the auto fill on teams and referral names.

Team pages are currently being tested and will be launched soon! You will soon be able to upload maps, screenshots, etc related to your team. Edit basic things on your team page such as colors, backgrounds images, etc.

...Whatever happened to the new HEK?
All I've seen is website editing.

It's being worked on as we speak. We should have a working client for people to download and try out by the 1st.

Yeah... But you know, that baguette...

@E3pO I also had issue with some programs, because of the decimal separator, because you use dot and we use commas in Europe or the inverse, i forgot . Anyways it's certainly related to that, and I have no idea how to fix it for us.

Bourrin's right, I would also love to see a baguette feature!
Preferably with some vin, pain and du boursin

Which features will be available on the download?

hes assasin chief

Reversing assembly brings nothing to the table when writing C++ code, sorry buddy. Any credibility he has with reversing assembly gets him no credibility in actually writing code, hence the reason why most of this project is just going to be stolen code from halo.

Well only time will prove me right, when I dig through the source or when this is never finished :).

You could just stop being arrogant and shut up about how he makes this tool. Nobody cares how much credibility he has as a coder, the bottom line is, he's developing a tool that will benefit the entire community.

Sprinkle sounds like he has a grudge against the OP, I'd forgive his trolling and yelling though if he would make us something useful...for example an app that lets you record your own recorded animations and works on everyone's pc/laptop!

I dunno if it's possible whatsoever, but what about a feature/program that tells you why halo exceptions when it does? You know, since halo exceptions aren't print ed to debug.txt.

Good idea. Even better, a feature that tells Halo to stop exceptioning when it does; A.K.A at random times such as trying to press a button or firing a gun; and just go back to the main menu.

Pretty sure exceptions happen for a reason... they have to be fixed. However, I would like to know what reasons those are.

hekaio frontend updates:

Updated .htaccess to supported the rewrites. Instead of using useres.php?user=E3pO you can now just do /users/E3pO/

http://aio.hekaio.info:60/hekaio/users/ now displays registered users!

http://aio.hekaio.info:60/hekaio/member/E3pO publicly available profiles can now be shown and shared without being logged in.

Updated database structures for a few tables..

The team pages should be working very soon!


If you haven't already, feel free to register your team on HEKAIO! If you are an individual feel free to sign up as well. Team members should contact your team leaders and have them setup an account.

Graphical improvements look good :)

So when are we going to see some actual development progress and not website progress of all things?

I see what you did there!!


Thanks! We are trying to make it as simple as possible as a developers point of view.. I'm not very design oriented.



In about 4 days, hopefully!

In 4 days I'll sign up. Hopefully.

I'm interested, but I won't be decent for a year or two at least. I've only just started the GCSE, see, and atm it's just VB.

Ah yes, October 1st preview/release.

We have dismissed that claim.

It's been a bit longer than 4 days guys,

We'll probably have Half life 3 earlier. D:

Don't worry, they're pro.
