My question was asking more specifically what needs to be done in order for the language to be considered 'complete'. It probably wasn't that obvious however that was the intent.

Yeah, it wasn't obvious. At all.

If it were at that stage I would simply request him to send someone the designs for it and let them complete it.

I don't see that happening. And even so, who would be up to that task?

Sadly, no, can't mod h3 that way (without a dev kit). Not until/unless they make a PC port.

They should dub it H3V7: Halo3 Vista/7!

e: the single quote marks make it looks like the downer has downer arms. ha.

But Halo 3 on Windows already exists! Look, this guy even has completely non-sketchy video proof of him installing an Xbox disc to his computer!

You never know.

e: lol jcap >.>

You never know.

I'm going to assume that you are wanting to do the project, but I highly doubt you are capable of doing something as complicated as this.

You assume much. I would like to do it myself, however I know that would be a difficult task which in itself would take ages to do. I wouldn't take it upon myself to do it however I am interested in what Korn had/has designed for Prometheus.

Let's look at this quote by Korn again.

I originally made up the rough draft (along with how to translate it into usable HS) of PSL during lunch in high school.

He designed the language, and documented how to translate it into the binary equivalent that is usable by the game engine. That's as far as he got while on the Prometheus team, and he said he wasn't worked on it much past the design phase since then. Why would you need to know the technical information if you don't plan on attempting it yourself?

Is it wrong to be curious? You're being pretty hostile when all I'm doing is asking questions that I think that are fairly reasonable. I have not asked Korn for the documentation or technical information or anything like that, and you're attacking me? Jeez.

E: actually, let's back up a second here.

Is that new scripting language to the point where someone just needs to integrate it into a tool or are there still things that need to be designed?

That was what I said originally. That was what I wanted to know, nothing more and nothing less. You're taking it a bit far here, do you have like a personal vendetta against me?

[ShadowSpartan]

Is it wrong to be curious?

No there is nothing wrong with it, but there is no point in getting the information if you can't even use it.

I have not asked Korn for the documentation or technical information or anything like that

*cough*

If it were at that stage I would simply request him to send someone the designs for it and let them complete it.

You did ask if he would give out the information to somebody, and you said yourself that you wanted to know about it, so you pretty much asked him for the documentation.

That was what I said originally. That was what I wanted to know, nothing more and nothing less.

And that was answered in his post about it. "I never gave up on crafting it myself in my own tools, but I never really drifted too far from the design phase." Design phase is pretty much complete, but he has never gotten really deep into the implementation. I don't know how to make it any clearer. If that is all you wanted to know, "nothing more nothing less", then why are you wanting to know about the technical documentation?

[Dwood]

My point was that my original question was there, and that was all that I wanted to know from Korn. I only said those things because you brought them up.

You're taking the original question out of proportion.

And you know what? If you wish to take this conversation further, please take it to Private messages because this little skirmish is seriously detracting from the thread.

My point was that my original question was there, and that was all that I wanted to know from Korn.

And my point is that there was no need to even ask that because his post contained the answer to it.
