Just for the record, I am doing the BSP and instances for it while Killzone does shaders.

Sounds good.

Finish Rats Nest already Maiku3.

moar pics of forge world :D and reach HUD :l

I don't have the source BSP, but you can have a copy of the map to extract from.

I optimized a lot of the forge world geometry.

I also got the reach sniper in-gamed.


Everything needs work.

Shader looks well...ah Opensauce...
Didn't wanna modify the sniper's view?

I'm trying to work on the shaders without open sauce, but my projects (mainly because of CMT) require me to have OS installed and working. I was wondering why my weapons are soooo damn shiny. They don't have 'OS shaders' exactly, but the post processing makes them look like they do. I gotta get around to fixing this.

OMG! Epic texture!

i love u jesse, your pictures give me orgasm it's me

Portals aren't That hard. Granted there are one of the most underused and understood bsp techniques out there but you need to look beyond portals to understand portals.


You must have......




No Mind.

Pm me on xfire Jesse. I might have some stuff for u.

cool?

Yeah, the map is just too much :(

I reduced the triangle count to 32,500ish and now it has very few rendering issues.



What do you mean?

The origins, probs looks like that because it's halo 2 anims.

---

Hey, can you send me the isolation map/files? I wanna have a looksie at it.

How would I disable the OS effects that make my weapons seem so shiny?

I agree this.

That model is rigged to the latest CMT sniper rifle animations (just to see what it would look like with a different set).

I plan to use this set extracted from The Cage (or get some other ones)




I plan to put these two Halo 2 tagsets to good use:

Halo 2 elite



Halo 2 human



Both are fully working tagsets, they are 100% completed. I just need to fix up the Lobby map and release it, not sure whether to use the elite or the spartan tags.
Edited by Jesse on Feb 16, 2015 at 04:13 AM

Because unless they're rigged to the same bone set (which can look weird for the Elites), I don't think he can use both without OS.

One word:

Problematic.

What I mean is that he could make both....
Name-Spartans
Name-Elites

if you want to give the forge world environment a little spin, give this a look. i thought the concept was mildly interesting

I just might do that. I plan to 'forge' all of the major Forge World maps that are available into one scenario just for kicks.

best mod ever

Did some work on the reach HUD that I had to start from new again due to lost files.

Coolness everywhere ! Very nice work Jesse !

Pm me the map the bsp model and the textures you are using again and I'll portal it again.

No secondary color on the elites?

If you end-up using the elite tagset i'll be happy to send over elites with secondary colors:
(animations not included)
Now this guy is OS shaded but I can easily make a nice non-OS one anytime. That or you can do the OS .map thing that allows OS users to see OS shaders while non-OS can't. Everyone still gets to play with each other regardless if they have OS installed or not. CMT did that with their .map

I think most multiplayer maps should do that. (this doesn't have issues in MP right?)
That is totally up to you though.

I'll certainly consider using that model with the secondary colors. I'm not sure if I'd use OS for the multiplayer maps, but it's all still in the air.

I've completed the modeling of the Reach HUD motion sensor, all I've got to do now is place it in-game and get the sweeper stuff working.

I made a high resolution render of what it should look like in-game.(but the website may have shrunk the image)


This is what the model looks like as a render:


This is the way the layers are stacked:


This will go in-game soon, and I'll continue with the loadout meters and possibly the weapon meters.


I finalized the sniper rifle screen:

Edited by Jesse on Feb 21, 2015 at 04:15 AM

looks cool

Not yet. I did, however, finish the motion sensor and abilities meters.



I can bend the abilites and other stuff later.

What do you mean by bend?

the center pinch distortion Halo HUDs have had lately:

looks fantastic :D now the wait for ingaming. i was going to try and teach myself HUD making by reconstructing the bitmaps from reach. i'm glad to see your doing this Jesse. mine would have been terrible XD
