Blooguards should be plasma sword wielding elites, obviously.

so what you're saying, is that i could have 2 replacement for 1 monster, but they can't be in the same level?
for the teleporters, what if i simply made some that go to other places, and others only go back to themselves?

by door, i will assume you mean the keygem doors, and for brigdes, i assume you mean in-level bridges.
i don't think i know that much about it, as this is my first mod concept, hoping to spawn at least 2 more. However, i DO believe that i have some idea of how they work.

the boss blooguard replacement is the hammer guy (i forget he/she/its name), while a plasma sword will be equipped by the boss nospike, which i think was an elite.

normal blooguard replacements just might be nerfed-yet-weilding-swords elites though.

You can read Lass' doors tutorial on K:M.

Correct, and even then it's difficult.

Yes, that's possible. Some information on them is here: http://www.shikadi.net/keenwiki/Patch:T ... eleporters

A brief bit of info for how the bridges work: http://www.shikadi.net/wiki/keen/index. ... en_4_and_5

Doing this will be difficult, but possible. I hope you can find free animation frames to use for it and I think I can overwrite some cheat codes to fit in the new behavior. I think it may be possible to do a placement trick so that you *can* have the two enemies in the same level.

If the two enemies have differing health, I'm not sure how easily that can be done.

Unless you can modify how many hit points the blooguards have, you may need to add some other level stuff like the pistons or things to grab for the boss levels.

You are referring to the brutes. They are the ones that wield gravity hammers. If you want, I can provide links to info about all the races in the Covenant through the Halo series. It may give you a better idea as to how you want the monsters created.

The ease of that would depend on how we make the bosses. A 'If in level x then have y health else z health' would be easy enough to do, but if we want both kinds in a level, something more complex with the collision will be needed.

that will not be too much worry, i will make every effort not to have 2 of the same type original monster in the same level.

Wow, new spambot style!

DHeadshot · Post by **DHeadshot** » Mon Jan 24, 2011 12:00

Where are the Spamvertising links if it's a spambot? Are you sure it's not just a n00b?

Post by **tulip** » Mon Jan 24, 2011 12:20

it's not a spambot I can assure you, as I've talked over PM before, he's a friend of Eros, helping him with the mod.

Okay, whew! Had me worried. If spambots started acting like that, we'd be done for!
