About the curves on the HUD, I think he meant the general shape of the items, like this:

Sorry, I couldn't find a picture but this will do. It's matches the shape of the Master Chief's helmet design, and looks really nice on the corners, where things are really stretched. Less is more with HUDs; right now it's kind of blocky and creeping towards the center. Everything could be a little smaller.

Just my thoughts on the HUD. Great job on it.

I'm curious; has anyone put on the Master Chief's helmet and have seen his HUD pop up curved? I mean, with a FOV of 70 degrees, how curved can you get really?

Technical > "Realism," especially when NO ONE knows what they're talking about.

what does FOV have to do with the shape of the inside of the MC's visor? I don't think his visor would be flat on the inside. I mean come one if you make a computer screen curved like the MC's helmet it should look corved to you. and I think that the MC's visor is clear in a way, or all most clear.

What does the FOV have to deal with anything in general? Seeing as humans nearly have a 170 degree of view, and the Chief's helmet by design seems to curve around his frontal view, one would think that his FOV of view would be much higher than 70 degrees, yet in the first game his HUD didn't curve around. Oh, and how about that. In the second game it didn't curve either. Such a magical concept that, all of the sudden, Bungie strikes for "realism" in Halo 3 and no one calls it on them, yet when an independent modding team wants to do what they want to do on their own terms, everyone thinks they should do it the Bungie way.

But that's not the real reason why you follow Masters around these forums and criticize the team's every move, now is it, Stealth?

is that the answer you have for every thing that has to do with me, and any thing remotely close to CMT? but that's not the reason you're laying out bait? no you just want me to cause more drama so I can banned. let me ask you this, is it going to kill you if you don't criticize every little thing I say and/or do that you think has any thing to do with CMT? are you going to criticize me if just one of my posts doesn't matter what forums it's in, what topic it's in have the word CMT? or even Masterz? you guys chew me out for causing drama, when you planly ask for it. is that what you want agamemnon? me to -blam!- up every topic and forums with drama?

Slaying noobs since 2007.

Well, it's simple Stealth, prove everyone wrong by no posting in a thread that Masterz made that has to do with CMT. I mean, that's common sense right there. Don't like someone? Don't put yourself in a situation that you are talking to them or about them.

  • 09.09.2007 1:02 PM PDT

and how many topics do I have to post in that isn't about CMT? 50? 100? 500? 1000? I haven't posted about any thing about CMT for a long time now, and I've posted in over 50 to 60 different topics, all with very little to do with CMT at all. the only topic I can think of that is remotely close to CMT was zteam's beta topic, and the reply to the update on some program they made that CMT wants. other then that, that's it.

You go into Drama Queen Mode every time you breathe. I also didn't come into this thread first and constantly badgered Masters when he answered, now did I? I came in here after you established that what you were going to do was cause some e-drama, because that's what you do. You obviously don't care about your dignity, or you would've stopped caring so much about Masters.

Also, why would you post this and then PM me the same exact thing?

What utter bull. You post in EVERY thread Masters has made.

CMT Mod team leader

Actually, I think he only posts in the topics I make.

And for everyone, I can not stress how the HUD can not be curved. Curving it requires everythign to be curved, and not everything can be curved such as numbers.
