New Sprites

BioHaz

<div class="IPBDescription">New Marine Crosshairs and Motion Sensor</div> I got tired of looking at the default HL sprite when playing as the marines and decided to slice up the overwatch-target.spr and make unique varients of it for the different weapons. Hope you like them, I find them quite fitting and stylish <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
Ive also made a new motion sensor blip sprite (blip4.spr) from scratch to something that is a little more attention grabbing than the blue circle. I also have a request to the devs with this one, in commander mode, the blip4 sprite is displayed upside down in marine view, and is rotated 270 degrees CCW in commander view. The first version of this replacement sprite I had used an icon, which I think looked a lot better than the current version that looks fine in both modes. So could you please fix the blip4 sprite orientation with the next patch, <i>pretty please</i> <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Anyways, here are the <a href='http://www.biohaz.net/downloads/NSCH_Marine.zip' target='_blank'>Crosshair replacements</a> and <a href='http://www.biohaz.net/downloads/Blip4.zip' target='_blank'>Blip replacement</a> sprites zipped, and ready for download.

Just place these files into your <i>\half-life\ns\sprites</i> dir, and overwrite the existing files, and you'll be good to go!

Enjoy! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

Any chance of a few screenies?

I like the blip. At first glance I thought the red wouldn't look right (against the blue hud), but I'm going to give it a go. I think actually the red will make the blips more menacing somehow, which is always good for atmosphere. <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

Hey, now I like these crosshairs.

The motion detection blip is nice too. I originally made a red blip for motion too, but nobody liked it. That's why I made it blue. :/

Surge

**obscenity** I love the red blip! Makes it seem more menacing and it stands out more... Whenever I see the blue blip I think it's a waypoint. Thanks for the red one. It's too bad Relic's was made blue. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

YAY were getting gl model !!!

/me goes off doncing!

RotA_Plague

Could someone please post a picture... I deleted my old sprite viewing program off my computer due to people not liking my crosshairs for another (unreleased)mod(that I won't speak of due to "pimping").

Hammer

Biohazard could you make this a blue blip? that'd be sweet.

LockNLoaded

screen shots Sir.

0see3

This red blip is great. I used to get the normal motion detection with waypoints, when they were far off and a bunch of aliens swarming. Now I can tell wtf is going on.

Sadly , I am at work and must wait to try these out. From what I hear they are the shiznit. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Could someone post some screenies of them please? I'm reluctant to download without pics.

Guys, just download them and look at them in a sprite viewer.

We have a rule on the FA forums, that I'm going to stand by in all mods:

<b>No Pic, No D/L</b>

..well, maybe I'll break it just this once, because I hate the default xhair.

Hammer

You're gonna have a Sprite site Necro?

I thought you believed that modifying anything in the game (Including **obscenity** sprites) was cheating.

ZeroByte

Erm, I believe he only thinks it's cheating if the modification gives you an unfair advantage.

Hammer

ooh of course! How silly of me for thinking otherwise.

Necro

bio: can u by anychance take a screenshot for the site?

TychoCelchuuu

...Says the man chastising us for not taking one second to download and look at it in a sprite viewer.

Necro, do it yourself! It's not like it will take more then a second to download!

lol, i use them, except i modified it so on the HMG/Shotgun theres not that queer circle around it which blocks visibility <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Alrighty then! Ive added the Grenade Launcher xhair to the zip file and reposted it. Just use the link in the first post to get the updated sprites. And also, here is a preview image attached to this post. The crosshairs are in done in IndexAlpha, so they are translucent in game.

And please dont call that ring qweer, it looks cool <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
