This was a really fun vehicle to rig, program, and just play around with! I can see level scenarios where this would be fun to use!

The Falcon is in Sacrilege now!

@CodeerDev Reminds me of CARRION! I think it'd be cool for there to be some environmental storytelling after you've been through an area (like some monster sludge, tons of gore, etc). looks really good so far!

[Aaron @SgtFlex]

@TheRujiK Can you cross breed an already crossbreeded creature with another crossbreeded creature! Really cool concept!

[Aaron @SgtFlex]

@sashadyak I love the physics and vehicle damage! Fun details!

[Aaron @SgtFlex]

Sacrilege had problems with explosions being pretty inconsistent--Going through walls (bad LOS), not affecting things right next to the explosion, weird physics, and more. That's all been fixed!

@Aaron_Victor_ Very unique style! Very smooth movement too

Mmmm friday night

@PabloMakes ok but the energy constrictions modifier is definitely going to skew things. I don't play hildryn normally but that modifier makes half or more of my builds unusable since I usually run low eff low energy pool.

[Aaron @SgtFlex]

@Alistair_McF I really believe that losing a base is what makes people quit typically. IMO bases should be able to be claimed back. Maybe TCs go into a "broken" state to allow raiders to secure for a bit, but original base owners can reclaim after x time has passed?

[Aaron @SgtFlex]

I think I'm finally understanding quaternions, which has made things like physics-flying vehicles possible for me! The Hornets are much more stable, anddd I worked on the AI for it!

This weekend for Sacrilege, my Halo fan game, I created and implemented SO. MANY. first person animations, and I implemented the energy sword and gravity hammer!

Added more SFX and VFX to wheeled vehicles which includes Tire smoke, Tire SFX, Headlights, working brakelights, and more! Also adjusted the AI to make them a little better.

I added hitbox-based damage multipliers to @PlaySacrilege , and added physic reactions to headshots akin to Halo 2. Much more satisfying to score headshots.

Halo is a pretty good candidate for a gravity gun, don't you think? I implemented one in @PlaySacrilege so you try!

Available in the latest build!: https://t.co/4McX0NTEz6

@PrimarchPringus They have a pretty open policy regarding Halo as long as you follow their GCUR agreement (though they still have every right to take down whatever), and there are a LOT of fan games. Mainly doing this for the love of Halo and gamedev (and a nice portfolio showcase out of it)

[Aaron @SgtFlex]

Improved the Elites dodge functionality to dodge everything thats a "Danger" such as fast vehicles, etc

Also a reminder that this is all currently playable!

@Designatedkitty gmod my beloved

[Aaron @SgtFlex]

Nothing says Halo like really dangerous environmental objects that can either be used for or against you, right?

Part of the latest release for download!

Cranked out a minimap/radar system yesterday. Not a lot of info on creating one, but wasn't that bad to make. Satisfied with how it came out (will get polish)

(Radar enlarged for dramatic effect)
