Merry Christmas! From all of us working on Ambush

Merry Christmas everyone.

As you've probably seen Masterz has posted a lot about cmt. I also thought today might be a good day to give ya a little update on ambush.

To start...remember way back when i made that first thread about ambush, and the map and weapons and everything looked god awful? well at one point we got on the discussion of bipeds and how 2 assigned bipeds were impossible...well...we were wrong : ). I asked Random to attempt a script and he was quite successful. it doesn't work exactly like anyone blue will be a us soldier and anyone red will be a terrorist. it's more like if you spawn where the terrorist base is, you're a terrorist, if you spawn where the us base is, you're a us soldier. works great, we had a test last night. i do believe rec0 was the first to achieve this but he hasn't been around much. Anyway to sum it all up, we now have 2 different bipeds that change depending on where you spawn : D

Next, i also thought it would be nice if each team could have it's own starting weapon. so again I talked to random about this and he said it should be quite easy. so expect that when you play it : ). now we only have a glock model so in order for this to work we needed another pistol. so, here's the US pistol, Beretta 92

i'll get the poly count later.

you've probably already seen the new ak and m4/m16 weapons so that's nothing new there. i've also started on a new black hawk because the way i made the old one, the rotors would not cooperate.

and finally i have the HUD concept that l33t had created a while ago and i kinda forgot about it but then masterz reminded me i had it.

all the bitmaps except for the weapon icons are done, we have a beta version ingame, looks nice but positioning needs work. Really all that's left iis to get the positioning right and finish the weapon icons, as you can see we only have the m4.

So that's about all for now, later tonight i'll upload a video showing the bipeds changing when you switch teams. that's probably the best way to show it.

anyway, Merry Christmas everyone : )

stfu jew >_> <3 that deagle though but it's still not ingame...


anyway, no deagle for ambush, just a beretta and a glock or something else i'm not entirely sure what the other weapon will be yet.

I believe you're mistaken that's not halo...(it's so good that I can't put sarcasm brackets in between that phrase)

:jawDrops: Beautiful bitmapping on that Deagle. the 3d model/ unskinned/rendered version's top part (the part that you have to pull back to get the bullet in the chamber) seems a bit to short and skinny. but thats jsut my opinion. maybe stretch it a bit?

l33t you idiot >_>

deagle has nothing to with ambush, l33t was just having fun.
