in all seriousness, I want to see that anti air wraith in action. I know you went a different way with it than h3's, so i'd like to experiment with it.

Why would armour on a flood form mean that it can't use a weapon? It's for variety of permutations. And yes, the more the merrier of the creepy bastards running at you head on.

I have to comment that I see some abysmally bad environment shaders in there. But as I hear it, this thing isn't actually "done" yet. :P

No offence to Rossmum in his olden days, but theres a person who thrives off forum drama, and what makes the most drama on the forum?

Crit was initially used as a mean to attack people within the rules, then you were all stupid enough to belive us (by US I don't mean CMT, but other people on this forum who are nototious for said crit) when we said we were trying to help. It really dates back to the gearbox days, when the administration wouldn't do anything about the "unwanted" people in the community (ie strider) so members of the forums needed a way to attack them within the rules.

And his crit worked :)

Wait what? Why are you adding water? :\

Frozen lakes melt?

We were discussing last night an easier approach than adding water, I think the water will look really cool though,

I think the frozen lakes look kind of cool.

I'm rather interested in seeing a tropical AoTCR.....however the grass needs work...

Yeah. Thats my biggest fear. I hope the textures fit well. Alot in SP1 was kinda ugly.

You could always say that the lakes had dried up. <_<

Tbh I don't see how water would work... I just can't. :\

Tropical wetlands, as if the area was stuck in a perpetual state of low tide.

Great updates, good to see CMT still on the move =)

It's a lie.

I hope you guys turned the frozen waterfall into a massive running one. I'm glad you've done this - I'd always wanted a spring/summer aotcr. I hope you've removed Cortana mentioning "malfunctioning weather" as clearly now it isn't.

As reaper said, remove the comment from that section. Find somewhere else early on in the campaign that'll work for it. If I recollect correctly, T&R will have a winter climate now, so just stick it in there somewhere. I'd think that right after the first covert sniping area would work well.

The only thing that bothered me in spv1 texture wise was the god awful rape of the maw escape :gonk:

Hi, guys. SPV1 != SPV2 in all ways. Don't worry about it.

yet its the same type of obvious criticism thats always given out by everyone around here whenever something is posted, and is repeated like 100 times till the person finally lashes out at everyone, hypocracy is a two-way street.

People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Sorry just thought I should throw my two-cents into the thread, even if it is a page or two late.

E: ot :party: looks like a candy cane in his mouth xD

e2: no really I dont have any criticism to give to your mod yet really most of it looks pretty nice and unique, the only things I dislike are obvious things that shud end up being fixed by the time the mods out anyway.

You should delete some of Cortanas dialogue, or replace it with your own.

I despised her voice, nails on a chalkboard.

Hmm, Masterz using his voice for Cortana. That would make for an....interesting campaign. :p

You can't hate on Jen Taylor.

He would probably mask it anyway.

Would he?

It would be like cortana was useing steroids and got all buff. And grew some balls.

Masterz....all buff? Not my image of him at all.

Well since all he does is beat the crap out of fan boys in his spare time I imagine him a tough guy.

Interwebz and RL are two very different places, my friend. With fan boys impeding his progress it's no wonder he has no spare time.

I don't see how its possible for fanboys to impede progress if you don't let them. Unless of course they're literally laying across your keyboard.

They do pop up alot on xfire when i'm writing scripts

Hey man, any date is better than no date.

Merry Christmas


Yeah I know stretched UVs, Bungie's mistake, not ours, and we're not going to be fixing something that is so small and the player won't recognize.

smexy

Hey, if you don't want to fix it. Blame it on bungie.

Nice pics btw.

Hey hey lovin it. Is it possible to shoot off the armor on those guys like it is with the brutes?

Doubt it.

I don't see why not (granted I know nothing of tagspace). They have the base model and the method.

Complex collision models are killers for tagspace.

What about Christmas 2012?
owait

I may want to play this single player campaign, but not as the last thing to do before I die :D.

And I don't remember flood spores on "Keyes". Is my memory betraying me?

No, the Flood Spores were adding in with SPv2, or, they will be.

And damn, those Flood are sexy.

:neckbeard: wow im lovin' it.

Masters, let me put my love into you; with my dick. :)

Dude that's way too much dust to pardon.

in a good way

Lag's responsible for those elite flood. Express your satisfactions to him ;)

Which is going to be released first?
Duke Nuke'm Forever or CMT SPv2?

cmt spv2 easily.

dammit snaf. I dont know if you were being clever or if that really did fly over your head.

I hate your personality because its fucking confusing.

Either way, cant +rep you.

never sweat the small stuff unless the small stuff is what leads to big problems, but a small UV stretchin don't matter.

I like the new flood elite look, what about the marine combat form? alittle more armor on it or the likes? I'm just asking because I'd like to know

Nah, Just the Elites :rolleyes:

I cant wait to have some Country Music Television in my Halo.

Hey I havn't done anything for this project, but can I beta test? That is if there is anything to test, I havn't paid much attention.

Most likely not.

Heathen let me handle this, i'm very persuasive.

Yeah guys, this is Lobo we're talking about.

He's more important than you, don't ya know. http://sa.tweek.us/emots/images/emot-pseudo.gif

Agree to disagree.

Obviously. Place some bets?

No, you can't beta test.

The lobster can betatest. ;)

Ah, knew I was persuasive. <3

Lag and I were having a discussion about explosions....





Ignore the little specs flying around, those are from a sandstorm I was working on in my test map and never removed.

This type of explosion replaces the super low res ones that you see in most of halo's explosions.

Pretty sweet. Does it come in blue for the covie explosions :-3?

Yep, and green for fuel rod explosions. :)

That's pretty nice, much better than those shitty SPv1 fires and explosions.

A bit off topic, but do you remember how awesome that newgrounds balloon game was. :)

That was the last game I played with you before everyone disappeared. :(

GJ masters, the first SP mod was good fun, I'll find my disc and figure out my cd key from memory to play the new one when it comes out. :) yes, I've reinstalled so many times I basically know my cd key off by heart. XD

Which version did we play? Did you know v3 is out? :D

http://www.addictinggames.com/bloonstd3.html

Look WAY better than Halo explosions. But I think it could do with a explosion sphere thing which Halo 3 has. And maybe some more smoke mixed in.

Needs to look like a more powerful explosion as well, so it could with something like a star shape which you had in the muliplayer CMT maps explosions. And some more sparks?

Looks nice though.

Meh they're ok but it doesn't seem like a real explosion... IDK something about it doesn't seem right.

An improvement over other explosions in the game:

It's okay but makes some mistakes many games do.

A little too much fire too spread out. Perhaps trying to concentrate the color a bit more instead of spreading the burning parts of the explosion all over the place?

You're probably already doing this but look for copter explosions and compare.

It was never meant to be realistic, and as far as edits the only thing that can be really done is edits to the bitmap, which I think looks fine. Particle systems can't be controlled as much as they can be manipulated into working. Bungie completely abandoned them as they were in H1 for H2.

^ Yes. I've tried to make decent explosion particles, and I was fucking around in the particle system tag for hours and I could never get it right. That looks actually pretty decent.

Although it looks like someone actually engineered the explosion, I don't think you can get much better than that. I'd make it a little more natural.

Oh okay. That part I didn't know. Never tried to edit an explosion before.

Yeah. Particle systems are a pain in the ass.

although the new explosion is awesome compared to old ones, i think theres a little too much fire, almost like Hollywood explosions were they use lots of gasoline instead of actual explosives

also i think it would help get some better feedback if you showed us a short vid of the explosion, just my opinion

Ignore the decal mishap on the last pic.


Which scope do you think looks best, and if you don't like any of them, we want ideas on what can be done to make them better or examples of other aim assists we may want to look into. The last pic will be a red dot scope if we chose to use it.


Edit: as an example of red dot scopes
http://img.alibaba.com/photo/1107160...fle_Scopes.jpg

Edit2: Thisis not replaceing the regualr SMG, this will only be available as an option on certain parts of the first 5 missions.

Holy mother fucker. :eek:

Red dot and acog look very nice. Iron sights... not so much.

I want you to have my babys.
