Elite Hud

Lijitsu · Post by **Lijitsu** » Thu Sep 08, 2005 10:58 am

I know youre probly thinking im unorigional, but im editing the Campaign, to make it where you play as the Covenant and you fight the Flood and Humans. As time consuming and buggy as it is, i am actually doing well. Im stuck on level two, but thats a differant topic.

Anyway, i was wondering if anyone has created an Elite Hud, and if so, could i use it? Im planning on eventually submitting the file as a sort of mod. You would get the credit for the Hud, of course.

i think u could just ask ts if u can use his hud and change the color in hmt ask Hawaiian Pig how to change hud color he knows im sure
and i could help u ive done something like this mod before
and if u swaped the cyborg with elite in hmt u wont have a hud u need to use hht for that i could do that and sparkedit and hmt
and if u dont know how i can make the human weps holdable by elite and viceversa and make vehicles ridable by elites

I use HHT, so thats no problem. Ive almost got The Pillar of Autumn completed, ive just got to mess around with the sounds and the weapons that are on the ground, that dont come from character deaths. Im having some problems with the Dropship and Pelican cross-over, though. The Pelican doesnt drop off characters like the Dropship does, and ive yet to even see the Dropship work. Not only that, but some of the Marines that ive changed into Grunts are invulnerable, while others dont have weapons. I would also like to be able to have a Sword available, but i doubt that it would be very easy. For some reason, when you die in the second level right now, the Elite model doesnt act normally. Whats more, the animations dont work right. I think i screwed up something with the Globals or something, but all i know is that i cant get alot of stuff to work. As for the Human Weapons being weildable by the Covvies and vice-versa, i would appreciate it, and i think i might have already solved the Vehicle problem, though ive yet to get to a part where i can friggan tell.

Well, see, i dont just want a differant color, i want the normal MC Hands to be changed to an Elite's. The color would be secondary, actually.

All of them.

And you don't paint over it, you adjust the brightness/contrast settings.

when you say fighting the humans and flood would you totally switch around the gameplay like fighting off the MC and keeping him from the lifepod (in the PoA) or would you just be an elite trying to get to the lifepod?

I'm trying to remodel the Campaign as if you were Zuka from the books and I'm assuming the thread starter is doing something like that.

Ah yes, Elite mods.

FP Arms: Change every shader MC has in it's FP model to Elite Arms.
It should give you nice color effects, though the bitmaps will be misplaced.

Will be the result.

And no, i'm not telling how to get an Energy Sword like that. I've posted it before, search around >=D
