[COLLAB DISCUSSION] Blood Gulch Reality

[2310]

Alright! All accepted modders go here. This thread is for Blood Gulch Reality. (BGR)

Mod Leaders: I'm looking for my assistant.
Phase One Status: Waiting for Olly's first report.
Phase Two Status: Also pending Olly.
Phase Three Status: Warthogs complete.
Phase Four Status: Pending Dittoz's first report.
Phase Zero Status: Effe being discussed. Bitmaps in progress.

Phase Zero modders will work independently of the other modders until the end, when all the edits will be combined for the final mod. But we'll probably have to work together on some things like effects.

What this thread is for: If you have any problems, or things that you're unsure of, post them here! We'll help you out. This post will also be changed whenever necessary to show the current status of everything. You can also post your work here for us to check out, especially for graphics-related jobs so we can enjoy our new and awesomer effects/bitmaps/etc.

[Pielogist]

hi. so i'ma wait for the primary vehicles modder to tell me what to do.

*standing by*

[crazyshroom]

List the other phase jobs?

[Turtle]

Reporting for duty, sir.
Although you did say this earlier, just clarifying that what you want Sir lumps and I to do is make the effects more realistic. Right?
Do you want Particle effects to be edited too?

I have compiled a list for Sir lumps of jobs for him to do, and jobs that I need to do (May be changed depending on agreements between myself and Sir Lumps or associated Phase modders).
Effe tags list for Sir Lumps to edit accordingly (using your power of judgement to make them more realistic), I think we should have an even amount of tags to edit!

Fascinating. Anyway, other than just your personal judgement, you can also watch some Halo Legends episodes. That might help. You can also use halo.wikia.com, and if you have the Halo novels, use them too. Any official (canonical) Halo stuff helps. If you know someone who has something you dont, you can ask them too. Falabmaja has some Halo novels ... I think.

List the other phase jobs?

Check them in the Recruitment thread. I'm trying not to have to copy the list here because having the list in one place reduces the chance of making errors in synchronizing lists. You could always use the standard naming protocol if you want ... like referring to me as BGallPri. Or Olly as BGweapPri.

hi. so i'ma wait for the primary vehicles modder to tell me what to do.

*standing by*

Try PMing the BGvehiPri. (... a.k.a. wernarner84 )

Although I asked this question earlier, I'm going to ask it again
Do Particles come under Effe (In other words, do the need to be edited by Sir lumps and myself) or are they separate?
Oh, and I will make sure I check some Halo: Legends stuff out first.

[2310]

Effe is basically a bunch of other tags compiled together. So since no one is just doing particles, they go under effe. (Some light tags also go under effe, I think.) Basically everything that would be exported if the effe is exported.

[Smythe]

Legends isn't canonical but meh, Working on the AR and bipd now.

[kiddten]

^ how exactly are you working on bipd?

[Smythe]

Extra damage multipliers to head when unshielded and "Slightly" less shield damage.

[2310]

Legends isn't canonical but meh, Working on the AR and bipd now.

Uhh ... if it isn't, why would Odd One Out be specially non-canon?

A non-canon and satirical interpretation of the Halo universe featuring SPARTAN-1337.

Extra damage multipliers to head when unshielded and "Slightly" less shield damage.

Until there's a BGbipdSec, you're also in charge of everything in the Bipd. Including walk speed and jump height and everything that would be exported when the cyborg bipd is.

[kiddten]

dunno if this helps anyone,
but plasma weapons take about 3-5 shots for shield to go down, and 1-2 for armor. they also age and overheat quickly, with more spread.
the AR should be taking 10 shots to shield, 2 shots to armor and me more accurate.
pistol should be less accurate, take 5 or so shots to shield, and 1-2 for armor
sniper should be 1 hit kill.
shotgun should be more accurate, a shot from one side of a base to the other should kill.
grenades 1 shot kill at close range, frag have longer range, plasma have less.
rocket/plasma cannon should have less range
plasma should be a bit faster
only should be able to carry to clips with human weapons

thats imo, probably will need balancing

[kiddten]

also, put the stun effect on the trigger jpt! on all weapons, and maybe some recoil.

[Sugarlumps]

The sniper is fine, 2 shot kill, one headshot kill. It isn't that powerful kay?
Don't double post either.

[kiddten]

sry, though someone had posted since then.
