Subject: CMT HUD Updated... Again

CMT Mod team leader

So after playing MP3 I got inspired to upgrade the CMT HUD, with an in visor view.



The initial outline for the whole visor.

And progress as of now.

I am begining to start work on teh lower haf later today, but am not totaly sure if my bottom outline is the best thing to be using for the HUD. Note that THE SIZE OF THE MOTION TRACKER CAN NOT BE CHANGED. Feel free to give critism, ideas, concepts and rep.

Barely looks close to Halo 3 HUD. But since this is Halo CE, its not bad.

  • 09.07.2007 3:08 PM PDT

:/
too square! give it some curves.

H3 HUD? Who ever said this had anything to do with h3?


And Stealth, if I were to curve it, it would make no sense, why would you have your HUD curved when in 3p?

  • 09.07.2007 3:40 PM PDT

very nice Masterz and all you other cmt people.

Yeah, it could use a little more curves. The bottom especially looks weird. But it's the best HUD I've seen so far.

and it'd make no sense what so ever to have a flat HUD, in a curved face shield.

But..... the Face shield isn't curved, so what are you trying to say?

  • 09.07.2007 5:08 PM PDT

>.>
it isn't flat too, that's what I'm trying to say. >.> take a look at the MC model that you're using and the one you're going to use, I've yet to see a MC Biped model in the any of the Halo games released to the public with a flat fase shield.

Here you will need this to help you get your foot out of the back of your throat, looks llike its in there pretty deep. And what is that on your face? Egg?! *hands Kim a washcloth*

Have you actually tried playing with this HUD? A good general rule to follow is that if you don't need it on the screen don't put it up there which you crapped all over with this. You have way too much empty space thats supposed to be HUD but it really just blocks the view of the player.

dude, I don't know what you're thinking but I don't see how it "blocks" the veiw of the player, I can see how it could get the player's eyes to follow the lines around, but then again, that's what lines do. but as for blocking the player's view, where do you think the player's eyes should be? at the top of the screen? why not at the cross hairs?

Do you play video games at all? Do you not want to see as much of the game as you can? When you drive do you only want to be able to see out of a 1 foot by one foot square in front of you or do you want the whole picture? Or how about if you were walking down the street wouldn't it suck to only be able to see about 10 degrees of vision? Do you know why widescreen movies were made?

I don't know.... I think 300+ hours of killing people in Halo CE counts as playing, and it's not blocking any thing, at lest it doesn't have an opacity of 100%, and dude, you're talking to a guy that wares helmets when he rides his dirt bike, and wares glasses, as well as SCUBA dives with a all-most clear frame Scuba mask. I don't know about you, but I'm just fine with the very small amount of lines that this new CMT HUD has in it, if I wanted to look at something with out the HUD, I use a screen shot hack to remove them. that's what I've done in the past.

You simply don't understand the importance of a good HUD. I am sorry if I am not worshipping CMT and masterz but this HUD is way too cluttered and takes up way too much space.

Actually, I think ours is not much larger, or any bigger than the H2 or H3 HUD with 2 dual SMGs.

I took the liberty of overlaying your HUD over a screenshot I just took of H2V with dual SMGs, sorry I couldn't get 2 dual SMGs.

Here is the first halo for comparison's sake. http://img398.imageshack.us/img398/7269/comparison2fg8.jpg

In H1 they are pretty much the same size... just differnt location. I'll overlay it with the H2X HUD, I was refering to that one earlier, wasn't thinking about H2V.

May want to take it back just a little, Static's right, is kinda going towards the center of the screen.

  • 09.08.2007 7:23 AM PDT

Hello! Star Wars FTW. Also, join the MAW group. Please?

What's MP3 and what's H2X?
