A few million might be worth something to them. :P

Might perhaps be worth it if they're thinking of buying a new company car and don't really want to waste funds.

No. I'd take a guess and say that the source has pretty much no commercial value by this point.

Some people like to make outrageous demands for such things.

Those selfish... Grrrrrrrrrr

Here's a quick video showing the map downloads in action.

that's amazing

so it allows the game to detect maps you don't have yet?

that will be really helpful in custom map games, no more guessing

You can read all about it on the open sauce wiki.

you practically just answered your own question. OS is capable of a lot of things and, unlike halo 4, OS is free~

Why do you make stupid, annoying comments over and over again.

@Firescythe, is there anyone in particular who is going to manage a dedicated server for map downloads? I know its possible for anyone to do it, but It would be cool if someone were to store most if not all the maps that are played at any given time.

be glad someone is adding such incredible features to an 11 year old game, so one day this community may be revived. If you wanna keep modding with the features of 2001 then you have fun with that.

I know I did.

I'll be hosting a Master Server with the highest rated, and the monthly most popular maps, if that answers your question.

All is explained on this page of the wiki.

Ideally each dedi would server the maps it is running, but otherwise the master servers hosted by volunteers would have a selection of popular maps and a subset of less played maps to encourage more varied custom map servers.

The only management Korn and I will do is to control the pool of master servers available to the OS userbase, so the maps that are actually served will be controlled by the master server hosts. This lends itself to scenarios such as a clan that owns a number of dedi's having a master server on their website hosting the maps running on those dedi's.

Ah, thank you gentlemen. I am definitely looking forward to using this version of OS upon release :)

My question is: Will OS now support reticule bloom?

Stock CE already has bloom, and you can model a visual representation of it into the weapon FP view, so there's really no need.

No it wont unfortunately. And It doesn't really work well modeling it in the FP view. You cant zoom and have it, and you can't have it turn red when you put the reticule over a target.

It works just fine if you don't need zoom or color change.

Except that every single reticle uses the color change...

Quick question concerning installation:

After I've installed OS to my computer the normal way, is there any way to move it onto a flashdrive so I can play OS maps wherever?

Thanks.

/noob

Except mine.
HA!

Will there be a fix or work around for the "no more free tag slots" error plaguing single player map makers?

I don't that's fixable.

I thought that this was to do with the overall amount of tags a .scenario could reference, from vehicles and bipeds to shaders and bitmaps (correct me if I'm wrong) and this could be increased similar to the tag space being increased in version 3.0.
Edited by ERNIE on Dec 26, 2012 at 08:35 PM

I believe tag slots have been increased by 25%

Tag slots are bit different than map cache file size.
You can bypass the filesize limit using Tool Pro or OS Tool.
As for tag slots,I do not know how that can be increased above maximum.

Make sure you be as descriptive as possible in what's wrong when filing an issue (especially follow the template instructions). Your post from earlier isn't really descriptive at all.

And the OS HEK writes to the debug.txt file in your "<User>\Documents\My Games\Halo CE\OpenSauce\Reports" folder. Check the error OS_sapien is logging first before filing your issue.


Also, the maximum number of tag instances has been upgraded by 25% since 3.0 was released. If you're hitting that limit, you really need to optimize your tag set.

Any news of maximum scenery objects supported on a BSP? I get clipping errors after a certain point, It'd be real nice if there was a fix.

You mean the maximum number of rendered objects? That's like 1024 objects IIRC. You seriously have more than that being rendered at once?

Any word on the new max particle count?

I like to take advantage of scenery.. I think an OS map of 2013 should have at least 2048 objects rendered at once;)
