There is nothing wrong with complaining about something that you find annoying.
Good god people, learn some grammar and vocabulary.

Agreed on both those statements. I do find it annoying when people complain about something that's based on the preferences of the creators, and nothing they can change though. CMT can post updates wherever they wish and so complaining may be allowed but it is rather pointless.

Oh Jaz, you Jazmanian Devil you.

You both need to STFU and stop littering my thread.

In other news, I got HEK and Halo running on OSX, I got several things working and hopefully I'll have a video working later today before I go to work.

a....VIDEO?!? 0.0 I liek vids

Can some one point me to open sauce? I am a bit newbie and I've searched for it and I cannot find it on google. I get a bunch of naughty sites :P


Oh wait, NVM

I DL'd Open sauce, uh, how do install?

Naughty sites alright...

Are you guys going to attempt a cave scene? And when I say cave I mean barely lit, deep dark pits, can't even see the ceiling dark. I always wanted something like that(I know its what you guys want), but they are not in many good FPS and it can provide some nice gameplay as well. I think if you do do one, I think you can pull it off. You guys have done amazing stuff with a 10 year old engine that I am surprised bungie or 343i hasn't even referenced you guys.



This sounded alot better in my head -___-

hey I've gotta ask this because it's been a thorn in my side for every halo game

since you got normal maps working on non bsp items, could you get decals appearing on non bsp objects? I would really love to see bullet holes and plasma burns appearing on ai, vehicles, etc.

I know it's a lot different than normals but could you perhaps look into it?

:D odsts on a50

Please tell me the ODSTs will have more than just assault rifles.

Yeah, they'll all have different weapons, i just haven't got around to giving it to them cause right now cause shadow hasn't run the scenario through his latest uncorrupted yet. So as of now the ODSTs can't follow you through.

they should have your silenced smg. due to the fact that you are supposed to be sneaky in this level so stealth is key.

Silenced weapons for the first part, then things like shotguns, assault rifles, and smgs for the boarding part would be good!

silenced sniper to

Being sneaky isn't going to be the marines biggest issue anymore, the covenant are going to have bigger problems to worry about by the time you are trying to board the ship. I'll probably give them a well rounded set of weapons.

thing is the way i see a50 is you know stealth is key but soon as you get in the ship it doesnt matter because they know you have breached them.

chief should start with
silenced sniper
ar

odsts
silenced smgs


then when you come across the first marine dead body there should be a shotgun

YESSS!! Glad CMT is back! Can't wait for the first maps

Well maybe give the marines that get off the pelican first, some get silenced smgs, when you get into the ship, they have regular smgs like they took off the silencer.

how? wine? crossover? i got halo demo to run in Linux.

will there be gravity hammers?

Edited by spiral on Sep 5, 2011 at 01:06 PM

I honestly don't know, With OS we may be able to generate effects in anims like you can with sounds, if so a hammer will be entirely possible. Also highly likely then would be, a sword with lunge. This is all an IF though, we would still have to make it backward compatibly for the luddites who don't want to use OS.

Edit: Spiral would you mind editing out that pic, I'd rather not have people asking me for the next 2 years what happened to the gravity hammer pic "we" posted.
Edited by Masters1337 on Sep 4, 2011 at 05:38 PM

Well as soon as this comes out I sure as hell will be using OS.

hell yeah, don't you guys worry anyone who wants to play this will feel no qualms at downloading OS just to play it, I sure as hell would.

The graphical upgrades will crash my computer so unfortunately, no OS for me.

I really don't see gravity hammers working that well in CE, with its primitive physics engine. I'd rather just see a usable sword.

I don't mess around that much with custom weaponry, but couldn't you just have a gravity hammer use a damage effect that causes a fair bit of instantaneous acceleration?

Another idea, try to a make a free roam area where various task has to be done before proceeding, like Silent Cartographer, except bigger and more to see. Maybe around 7 Main task with sub task leading up to their completion and maybe side task. Not a complete open world experience but it gives more variety and sandbox gameplay. Have like two Biomes so that a repetitive color code doesn't get dull, such as forest that turns into snowy mountains. Pretty sure its a lot of work, but hey something to think about.



And try to make a desert invasion scene, add a little warm colors in there.

They wont crash a modern computer... upgrade time for you :)

I would upgrade, but places here don't like to hire 16-year-olds who have no previous employment experience.

Lag and I have PC's that are several years old, mod runs fine even with my crappy video drivers.

Hello Masters1337!

Is your's a 5 year old sony vaio laptop with an intel card that doesn't support hardware t&l? XD

Nice to know that you ain't overpowering the game engine like Crysis. Not even the current Generation of computers can fully master it and to be honest, Halo OS is more beautiful than that game.
