FOV over 200 + psychedelics = god mode

FOV of over 200 is physically impossible as you will be starting to see whats behind you

I find the amount of people who take these posts seriously rather fascinating

Don't let our constraints as humans limit our virtual creations! If the viewer is a single point, the fov's domain would be all real numbers. I'd imagine an fov of -1080 to be the entire surroundings flipped.

180 degree FOV would mean that you can see exactly 90 degrees left and right of you. 360 would be full circle. -1080 I assume would give images within one another, and depending on the amount of times done it could be upside down or normal

Sector 9 is illuminati confirmed.

Lil that's the oni simble

Oni has 3 letters. Sector 9. 9 divided by 3 is 3. Triangle has 3 sides.

half life 3 confirmed.

Half life 3.
3 divided by a half = 6.
Halo 6 confirmed.

Looks cool but I'd make the VISR orange based instead of blue. Only reason we released it with blue was so it matched the rest of the HUD.

I want to do this, but I dont know what you guys used to write the pp commands or how to change the color.

Edit: I do know, I just dont know how to write HLSL. (I am going to attempt to self-teach after I start my programming classess for my computer science major)

Edit: I figured out you could change the color in Guerilla ages ago xD so I updated the colors already :D

I noticed that in the alpha, the brutes were all SPV2 ones. I don't like the variety in colors, especially for the captains - there's black and greyish-white armored ones, in addition to the blue, red, and gold seen in Halo 3. Will you consider using brute tags maybe from the upcoming TSCE, or Halo 3 ones, rather than the SPV2 ones? Or have you already made this change?

I like the Reach elites, but I think they make the other enemies look out of place, or vice versa. If you're aiming more for lore consistency, which would make sense given your story-based scenario for this firefight, then I'd keep all enemies, weapons, etc. within the style of one of the games, which would most likely be 3 or Reach. For me, Reach elites and 3 grunts don't pair well together with respect to looks, which highlights my point about consistency. However, some custom weapons like the tactical BR feel Halo-authentic, and that one in particular would go well with any map having more Halo 3-oriented aesthetics. So, even if something's custom, if it can be agreed that it tailors to the game world, then it would most likely be a good inclusion.

It's up to you how you want to work on the aesthetics. I just want to advise that they're overall consistent with each other. We've all seen maps with batantly inconsistent tags, and the impression they left us.

Focusing on a different topic, I think there should be navmarkers to the last few enemies. I had a very hard time trying to find and kill the stragglers from some waves. Sometimes, I even had to resort to cheat_medusa and fire my weapon multiple places to kill enemies I couldn't even see.

Glitches in alpha: I fell through the map in front of the base (I think you've dealt with this problem). Spirit dropship spawned but never moved, so I had to teleport to it and kill the elites in it so I could progress. And as mentioned above, remaining enemies sometimes were nowhere to be seen, so I had to kill them with cheat_medusa and firing a weapon randomly in the air.

I'm sure the map as it is now is quite different, but I enjoyed it a lot. I'm excited to see how it'll look next and maybe the final time.

UPDATE!

I made a website! I've been learning HTML for the past couple of days, bought a domain and a hosting plan, and made a website. It's mainly for VKMT, but since I own it I thought i'd make a sector 09 page on it. I'm going to post updates on this website in the future. Design is still a work in progress, I hope you all enjoy it!

all bipeds are now h3.

The pyramid?!!!!

Project Sector 9 illuminaughty leak confirmed.

I think the website looks simple but cool, quite like it!

Opinions?



I have already consulted someone, and he has inspired me to make a change to the "after" portion.

He also posts stuff about the Illuminati...

altis Illuminati master confirmed

Much better.

That's way too illuminaughty to handle. But the difference is more appealing in the after photo. I reall like how all the harsh yellow and redish tones are subdued by the blue. But it does make the texel's seem more noisy.

I just played the demo that was released (or whatever it was), and I liked it. I will be tracking this now, as I could always use a new Firefight map after Firefight Portent II's cancellation (as understandable as the circumstances of its cancellation were, its still kinda sad).

Everything I've seen of this map is in Fullscreen 4:3
Will the HUD be made for Widescreen 16:9, or will it have to be stretched?
