AI don't use auto aim. Even if they have it they still have to aim at their target to fire. You could edit the character so that it will never miss though.

You mean the Z spawn for a parallelogram(squared of rectangular shape), in which's size is defined by Values?

Well I downloaded this mod earlier, and play-tested it with Mr Balll over Xlink Kai.

I'm afraid it wasn't of the high quality I expected from you T-Beezie, the AI was pretty good, but that was the only part of the mod I liked. The BSP was pretty good, although very small, and there were no weapon alterations, no new effects, no models, and not much of anything really. I also felt it was too dark

Overall it felt quite incomplete, and when will the AI be like true campaign AI?

This wasn't a personal bash on you T, just a critical comment from somebody that has played the mod thoroughly. Maybe some new skins and effects could be used next time. Other then that though, it's still a good mod.

Why do these never seem to make it in an AI mod/BSP conversion?
grr...
But ya...I hate the bsp.
What is the point of using something so small?
Kool AI though...How do you spawn them with random weapons?

edit: nvm, ill try and find it in entity using your map as a guide.

As for now, the only way I'm able to give the AI working zones, is through a BSP conversion. Unfortunatly, all of the known convertable BSPs have already been done with such wonder, how could I even begin. I know this BSP is really small, yet never been used. I pray for the day, that the secret to converting the larger BSPs becomes a reality.

Those Elites sure knew how to jump. I would sit behind the gravity lift and they would jump like 40 feet in the air at me and be lifted away and then jump at me again and then I would assassinate them. =)

Yeah, they do jump pretty high!

I used the Flood Combat Elite .char to spawn the AI Elites, it gave them Flood-like behaviors. I've even had them jump up to the upper walkway and pwn me, while I was just trying to watch.

Can you upload the patch to somewhere other than MegaUpload, I really don't want to install a toolbar just to download a patch.

T Beezie · Post by **T Beezie** » Wed Dec 13, 2006 9:25 pm

Sure

No prob.

Is that why they are a bit... dumb? Like you can run right up to one and it will just stare at you for like 5 seconds then react.

why don't you ask Headshot about the bigger BSP? If I remember correctly then he had somethin going on that. And knowing the quality of your mods, he might give you some info

Funny thing about that is, in my second version, (the one w/Elite Rangers), I spawned the Elites through the Elite .char, not the Flood Elite .char. Yet, they also, are still quite dumb.

Indeed, also it has a Height scale for slanted places that AI must go, and an Enum for what the AI is to do in the selected Area(Take cover, run, etc)

lol. I did some reading up on zones (googled it

) Bungie made modding pretty hard didn't they?

Haha well when you have to reverse engineer it, it is hard, if you're bungie and you decide how it's all gonna work, then it's not so hard.
