Ok, we all had our laugh. Now, I don't know myself how to make a moving crosshair, my only suggestion would be to PM the uploaders of the videos, and please pick up that boxed DVD set, I hate having to spend 5 minutes deciphering your appalling English.

If you could use readable English someone might help you. This forum primarily speaks English if you couldn't tell. I think you should just use google translator. It probably translates into better English than your poor excuse of it...

It's a plane or a box that is animated on the weapon in 3dsmax with the rec Applied.
the animation is linked to the firing and weapon animations.

You would need to remove the rec out of your hud.

I would like to see someone make one a separate. jma or jmo that way we could simply compile. it in to our weapons.

IambrokeRu Does some great work But I have not seen the pistol one before.
Nice Find!

Maybe you should watch those DVDs before posting, last I checked was $9.99 for the set on Amazon.

Still!!! I have to tell people not to spend a thread criticizing a posters grammar. for crying out loud if you can't understand what he is writing then ask for clarification. If you just don't want to respond because of his grammar then push yourself away from the keyboard or go to another thread. Making fun of him or berating him is nothing short of trolling and shows a lack of character and self restraint. Help him with his question, ask for clarification or shut up. It's what Chuck Norris would do.

There are a few ways to go about doing the moving crosshairs, each with their own drawbacks:

(1) Animated shader plane attached to animation states. (ImBrokeRU)
(2) weapon_hud_interface manipulation of multilex overlays (Jesse)

Both don't turn red when aiming at enemies, and (2) tends to be a bit iffy as to when it shows up.

oh cool do you have a video of yours Jesse ? that is another great solution. but another problem with that is that the rec would not start smaller and get bigger while you shoot.
and then get smaller again when your clip as almost done. I would think it would just cycle through some bitmaps.

Although a multiplex overlay seems to be an easyr method. because it can be made in photoshop. I would still recommend ImBrokeRU procedure &

I think I Know the solution to it Not turning red when aiming at enemies though.

That would be to use just the center part as regular part of the rec the red not movable part in the HUD that way it turns red.

And then the other part. The outside part as step 1.

Max (1) Animated shader plane attached to animation states. (ImBrokeRU)
Photoshop (2) weapon_hud_interface manipulation of multilex overlays (Jesse)

I Think that Max would be the best Method in this procedure.

Does it disappear when looking around? If so, I managed to solve that problem.

The bloom times have been set to match with the accuracy cooldown times and such, but technically it's not based on error rates, although it might seem like it.

You people throw around the term 'troll' way too often and it is usually completely out of context. Making fun of someone or posting something unrelated does not qualify someone as a bridge dwelling creature.

*OFF TOPIC* (I couldn't find a thread linked to this problem)

Does Windows 8 continue to support Halo Custom Edition and the Halo Editing Kit?

I'm flicking through laptop mags, and found one that took my fancy, just need to know if Halo ce and the HEK can still run on it without any setbacks.

I'm using windows 8 and I have been using hek forever I'm doing ok.

max 8 wont work well though. Never found a solution to using it in windows 8.
I had a lot of luck with 2013 but now I'm using 2014.

No issues.

Yes. It's working perfectly for me. Just a few minor problems that come with using a newer theme (dropdown boxes in Guerilla are squished)

How is that perfectly buddy?
Anyway it runs fine without that issue.
Enable compatibility mode for windows 7 and check disable display scaling on high DPI settings.
& run this program as admin.
works like a charm.
also take ownership of your data and tags directory & associate your tags extensions.
You can also set a shotcut in your properties shortcut tab and click on advanced.
and check Run this program as administrator

This option allows you to run this shortcut as an administrator, while protecting your computer from unauthorized activity

This is the best way to run Guerilla when configuring your Moving Crosshair :P

@All: Thanks for your help and advice, if I do buy an Win8 Os laptop I'll down grade it to Vista or 7. Asking the company to downgrade the computer itself costs a bomb.

Damn you lenovo

here something that will help it form kirby_422 In halo 1, to have a animated crosshair, you either have the moving parts as part of the FP model, or in the weapon HUD using the 'static elements'. With either of those options, it will not go red when hovering over an enemy by default.. If you make it part of the model, and use OS however, you can have a script that will look over the conditions, then apply data to the weapon, so that another function block can preform the color change necessary (Regardless, this is over the top).

If your making it part of a HUD, it would be heat. And even if it was a model, the easiest function block setup would be heat anyways.

Doom I don't know you but I love you already & Jessie you are Amazing! OMG I love it! nice job guys! The rec bitmaps. could use some work possibly. I don't think they need to be so thick & big but it works and that's so cool! great start!

And as for what doom posted that needs some looking into. but that sounds like a great way to do it proper just like in newer games. ;D

Jessie you achieved greatness along time ago but this is a Feet! Nice job.

CE's first moving crosshair with enemy detection. so glad I thought of that (:

The sizing of the crosshairs elements can be adjusted, but it's a real pain. The expansion and contraction rates can easily be adjusted though, and this allows me to make the crosshairs accurately represent the error rate of the weapon while fired.

I'll color them in later, so no worries about that.

I want to use multitex overlay for something else. if that's possible can you do a tut Jessie or show us how to make them work

can we use multitex overllays for more then just weapons?

could we use them for damage flash? or low ammo?

Damage flash is controlled in the default globals.

Low ammo flash is controlled in the weapon_hud_interface, but in the static elements section, and you'd be over complicating things if you used multilex. You can totally make a bar meter that moves, instead of drains. This is also how I created my working compass for the visor.
