HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

NEW VERSION just uploaded - ver 1.1 has a few minor fixes- the bounding radius (sword disappeared if you stood on it) - active camo works now (plasma stays lit like an elite's in campaign). Also got rid of a few unneeded bitmaps (forgot to delete before) so the download is smaller.

_______________________________________________________
Hey everyone- here's my new sword that I've been working on. I wasn't happy with the existing ones that were out there, and I hope this one makes its way into lots of your maps. ;P Feel free to suggest any improvements (no guarantees that I'll fulfill any), and let me know if you see any bugs.

Details:

Custom hud elements (reticle, pickup icon)
Semi-custom 3p animation
One hit kills
Animated plasma shaders

Awesome, you released it! Definitely the best sword yet.

Edit: PLEASEEEE release an energy sword only version of claustrophobia. It would be awesome, and you could change the melee button to a mouse button since it would be the only weapon.

Edit again: Hmm, did you change the recticle? It used to be the nice h2 one, now i see a bitmap of some slashy one. I hope its just excess there. Also, did you forget to include the hud item messages?

Another edit: Oh now I see, you included two. And I forgot the ES was already in the hud item messages.

Yeah, that must be one I forgot to take out from some reference file or something. Oops!

edit: just fixed it- they're not in there anymore...

Good job! Very nice work! I really wasn't happy with the energy swords that were there alredy so thanks alot!

PS: By the way was this the one from the Zanzibar H2 map? Because looked pretty much the same.

Oh man, no offense but the sound it emits gives me a headache.

I LOVE IT but is tehre someway i can put that into a pc level or something like for a halo 2 mod

no u cant...and OMFG URS IS THE BEST YET....cept maybe the zanzi one, but OMGWTFH4X

Oh, dude, you made me happy You made agreat shader!
I love the electric things between blades

holy shit! that is very very nice, how long did it take u to finish the whole thing? (including the hud and junk)

make it so when its laying down that is just the handle
if you can
then it would be almos exactly like the real one

i have a suggestion for this sword, and I'm sure it can be done easily, but I have almost no experience with these things...
Try to make the sword a bit bigger, and longer, that'll make it somewhat better. Oh, and for the 3rd person model, the 1st is great!

meh its gray on my comp.
stupid gfx card

The model that's on the floor is the same model that's in the 3p view, so no I don't think I can make it just the handle.

BTW I scaled it exactly to the action figure. It may look a bit small, but it's right- trust me.

As for the 3p animation- I would like to do more, and someone has helped me a bunch, so hopefully I'll re-release an improved version of this sometime sooner or later. Thanks for the comments!

That bitmap is awesome! Can you send me a DDS of the Press E to pick up logo, for my Halo PC mod, Elite Battles? And maybe use my sword in a CE map? I'll give you full credit for everything

Problem:
when i put edit energy-sword in sapien ,sapien close.
But the sniper rifle or the old weapons don't have these problems....
Help!!!!This sword looks so awesome!!!!!

please help this sword looks so awesome!!!

i think ur doin it wrong b/c it worked for me

I'm not sure- it should work fine if you copied the tags folder into your Halo Custom Edition directory- the only problem I've noticed is that you might have to redirect your default_hud.globals tag to the new hud_msg_icons.bitmap, but even if you don't it won't crash Sapien. Try to describe how you put the item in your map, and I'll tell you if you're doing it right. Come by forums.yayap.com if you need more in depth help.

well just fix the other hand in the 3p model and i'd use it
