O bby, Halo: Online Thread

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Hi guys, glad to see some life on the modacity IRC, lets see some life here!

Anyways, here's the link to the current loader, use f2-f7 to load maps.

The fact that we've bypassed the login screen makes me excited.

It leaves me wondering just how much of this engine is hard coded, and how much is tag driven? If we find it's mostly driven by tags and scripts, that could mean that we've basically got a Halo engine to muck about with. In theory, we could strip out a lot of the stuff that makes this into a glorified Facebook game and bring it down another path with the proper research and effort.

I don't expect answers any time soon, of course. Just pipedreaming...

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

I'm glad you're excited.
I'll be honest, a lot of things look incredibly tag based, but also server based.

can't wait for the halo 1 mod of this halo 3 mod

[Ki11a_FTW]

I'm No programmer, but the game seems very tag oriented. The fact that the game will try to load any map file you throw at it is interesting, and it's also interesting that the majority of the source files are stored in compressed .dat files. I was shocked that when I first loaded up the game that it was indeed the halo 3 engine, considering it was only 2 gigs of content and the game required no installation.

[Zeph]

Tags were just bungie's way of isolating nullptr exceptions. Basically, if you wind up with one, you've got a tag field you can instantly find and fix.. The neat thing I find about this is that the sbsps are readable through existing tools. With scaleform as a middleware, you've got the UI calls externalized in a .gfx file somewhere and have an in to do anything in the game.

[Amit]

I am in awe. I don't know if that's a good thing or bad thing.

[ThePlague]

Sounds like a good thing.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

My thoughts are that, even though the game may originally play like some bastardized halo, since it's the halo 3 engine, we can edit the tags to play just like halo 3 should, it may not look exactly the same, but it'd play that way.

Very excited for this. Can't wait to see what the modding community does for this, because I know they're not going to release editing tools for this game.

hey pyong you're creating a server browser from scratch?

[Cortexian]

No he's not that's why he posted that he's working on creating a server browser a few posts ago.

Oh wait, I guess he is.

[supersniper]

No he's not that's why he posted that he's working on creating a server browser a few posts ago.

Oh wait, I guess he is.He could've ben posting it for his team, he could've been showing a modified code that he modified himself. Many possibilities.
Cut the sarcastic attitude, thanks.

Just my perspective from when we were setting up the MP group shot (http://i.4cdn.org/vg/1428565694615.jpg)!

[InnerGoat]

lol looks like halo on a failing dialup connection. but hey it's a start

[n00b1n8R]

lmao did you actually link to a picture on 4chan freelancer

[p0lar_bear]

So, I'm curious: how does the networking work with this as it is? Does each client also has the capability to be a server (like hosting a game on Halo PC or how I understand Halo 3 worked )? Or did you all have to do something completely crazy and somehow emulate a dedicated server for the client to connect to?

Occam's Razor tells me it's the former, but Pyong DID say that there is supposed to be a central server that controls a lot of things and stores player data and I'm wondering if anything crazy was done to this engine while it was being ported.

[Amit]

From what I saw from the stream, any one of the people were able to host a new lobby that could be joined through a lobby/game listing. Nobody had player data, though, or even names, so the latter might be where this is headed.

[Cortexian]

lmao did you actually link to a picture on 4chan freelancer
Apparently I did, it was just copy-pasted from IRC at 2AM and I didn't notice it was 4chan CDN

also that video has 2500 views in 7 hours. lol.

[Timo]

Things get intimate as Muki and Herro get busy right there on the public beach. Mama Herro treats her little Jackal to a tender Blowjob, followed by an amazing footjob. Her efforts are rewarded when Muki climbs on top to give her a good pounding (pile-driver) before emptying his heavy balls of cum in her ass!

Fair enough

[t3h m00kz]

[Cloud]

I am pretty excited about this I am just hoping that they make an american version soon!

[Resinball]

They announced further release is planned for the rest of Europe so the likelihood of release in the Americas is much greater, I'd wager its inevitable.

Anyone play this? Does it run at over 60 FPS and can you disable mouse acceleration or is it the typical bad port shitfest?

I play El Dewrito. Game runs good, generally. El Dewrito disables mouse acceleration and adds realtime armour customization among other cool things like stat tracking and centralized servers.

I've been a player of Halo since I was a child just starting elementary school. It's been by my side for so long that I've begun to think of it more and more as a pet, like a dog or a cat; one I've had for 14 years now. It's getting up there in age, and considering the average lifespan of a domestic dog, 13 years, or a cat, 15 years, I think it's time to make some very serious considerations.
