Is the hit detection client side? Last time I played Halo CE it was impossible to hit some people because of the server side hit detection.

Yes! I finally catch one of these threads at the beginning! Downloading now.
Don't dissapoint me with your autism, anons

...

There's 0 netcode in Halo 1. You don't have any compensation, and have to lead your shots as if you're playing with a non-hitscan.

I haven't played CE since 2008, that's about the final year of Combat Evovled and Custom Edition before it became 100% brazilians.

Let it be know that Thor-Axe is a fucking privileged cis-scum shitlord who shoots people with only 3°FOV.

...

Pretty much, SAPP has a no lead command but it ruins the balance even more with the 3shot kill pistol.

LUIGI'S RACEWAY NOW IN THE ROTATION MULTIPLE TIMES UNDER THE FOLLOW GAMEMODES


I remember that match.

holy fuck that webm is autism incarnate

bump

SERVER IS UNDERGOING TESTING
I'm almsot done, sorry to CIA who jouined you could have stayed ot help test but would be drone to D/Cs and the like

I've been needing some Halo CE in my life. Thanks OP.

Come on, let's go!
Let's stress test this baby!
Fill every port and overload the bandwidth, know what I'm sayin'?
YEAH!
TONIGHT!

Fuck yeah, these are always comfy as hell.

Tribes > Halo

Also thinking of making a (((discord))) Simply to let people shit talk or listen to others in game without having to type shit and potentially get type killed.

I bring this up because not a fan of mumble because admins can dox users and toxx is owned by actual kikes (not the chinese kind like discord is)

I'm 60-40 on this with the 60 being against.

In any case hopefully people have their clients ready or are ready to play I'm just tightening up some things

I think it's for the best if we keep our communication limited to familiar text and teabagging.

Then get hosting, faggot.

I should look into making a tribes server, Maybe tribes 2?

Yeah, voip lends itself to attention whores and I'd prefer that this doesn't end up like the Halo Online threads.

Righto, Thats why I'm mostly against it because it'd turn into a circle jerk . I mean the idea is an honest one: give people a chance to shit talk real time, but the cancer is just too much of a risk

Those who do want to spread cancer will find a way, I'm simply against indorsing it.

No I'm with you on that sentiment 100%.

In any case the testing is going fine Might open it up at 4pm

So are we not meant to be able to join yet or what?
It keeps saying there may be a connection issue.

read the OP faggot, it says 5 PM EST.

explain

I came here to play video games not read, that's for faggots!

Does it keep retrying the connection?

I know whats wrong hold on

scratch that

I have no idea can you do some digging on your end?

The same is happening here.

Direct IP connection works.
I could join other servers just fine, but this one wants to be direct, the cocky cunt.

weird

OK CONNECT DIRECTLY SEEMS TO WORK

Yeah man. Do it.

OPENING SERVER EARLIER TESTING IS CONCLUDED

SERVER IS LIVE

Server is down?

Probably kill.

Nope we're still up if you fdorgot to download the battlecity maps you got D/Ced

They aren't in HAC2's download list so you have to manually install them

SERVER IS CURRENTLY LIVE

I downloaded it, how do I install it?

Do I need the mega and the torrent?

Nah, just the mega link should be everything you need I believe.

either/or

I used Mega, how do I install? Ive been clicking all over the place but nothing pops up.

extract the archived folder and run haloce.exe

For some reason I got this username and password crap.

OH that's the HAC thing ignore that when the pop up comes up hit no

Halo will alunch

Know how to bring up console during the menu? I need to change the mouse acceleration.

read the OP, you don't need a console to disable mouse acc

I did, still don't get it.

Is it this?

haloce~console .exe- Shortcut

no

Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe" -window -console -exec mouse.cfg

How retarded are you. Look at this bit of the OP

halo.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=33034400&postRepeater1-p=1#33062868

Follow that link and read it.

Pretty fucking retarded, do I just copy and paste console in the Target line because its saying that I can't.

...

yeah it sohuld look like that in the target line

It ain't letting me do shit.

Why did you include the "-window"? It looks like that's what's causing the error.

Console on its own, doesn't do anything.

looks like you forgot to put a space between the arguments

It's because there's no space between the end quotes and the hyphen.

Add a space after the quote. Jesus, user, haven't you done this before?

TIME FOR LUIGI

I JUST NEEDED A SPACE! AHHHHHHH!
Thanks

I did everything but now it says mouse_acceleration is not executable.

Create a file in your Halo directory called mouse.cfg


Step 2: Pop it open in notepad and put in the line:

mouse_acceleration 0


Step 3: Save it.


Step 4: Add the following line to your command arguments on your Halo shortcut:

-exec mouse.cfg


After that, when you start Halo, it should say "0.0000000" in purple text near the bottom of the screen. That will indicate that mouse acceleration is at zero.

There ya go. I hate mouse acceleration, too.

Fuck it im using a controller

...

use direct IP

Thanks.

wew

OH SHIT SERVER DED

No more shitty mods. But they were fun.

Server is behaving erratically which is weird only one issue lat time was it crashed hard on deck

it's not wrong tho

Join, niggers.

server has fallen off and it's only 7

Anyone still playing? I was thinking about hopping back on in a little bit.

Yeah so far 8

Downloadan @ 38%

yeah there is a handful we're halfway from capacity

still need people

I'll be back at 10ish, gotta eat.

Is it normal for your own text to show up?

I mean to not show up.

Go here and install

no need to download

I don't have a redist.

search for it in the search bar

It was in maps for some reason.

Unzipping it now. You niggers better be playing this

I'm done for now, it was fun kicking your asses

user, I

Haven't seen this guy in awhile.

An old friend to those who played Halo PC/CE

Anyone know how to disable aim assist for a gamepad?

nope just use a KB+M

I just want to relive my Halo 2 days

KB+M is better user

Anyways server is winding down we're down to 3 people so I'm likely going to shut the server down for the night.

Sure, see you when you decide to do it again.

THANKS TO THOSE WHO STOPPED BY AND FOR THOSE WHO GAVE HALO CUSTOM EDITION A HONEST TRY

I'll probably do another one in the future on a spur of the moment deal. Of course I'll give a warning in advance when I plan to set the server up. But for now I'm gonna let it be, so it's a bit more special.

Next time I host I'll most likely do Battlefront II and knock out all the mods except the 1.3 patch and the conversion mod that adds the BF I maps in.

fug

Sorry mate but the server was at the tail end there was like 3 people counting myself.

I'm uploading some highlights I didn't record much I didn't want another 3 hour long thing and tried to record every match or so but that failed after I forgot to

Here's a highlight from hugeass.

Same, every fuggin' time. Can we all join a public server instead?

Go ahead, recommend realworld since they have a server with custom maps

I know it's weird for eurobros who want to play since I run off EST. So if any user wants I have my SAPP files uploaded if anyone wants to run a copy of the server.

Serb name or IP?

We need to set up a mubble or something, typing and playing is too much work.

Nah Some anons raised a point earlier it's gonna lead to cancer.

and I agree, the idea is ncie but the chance for cancer is just too high. I want there to be more a focus on the games than the people.


Look for any server bearing the name REALWORLD in it's name or some variation. They're a clan from the early days of HCE that I've known for ages. They've got several custom map servers as well as a stock map one.

Can confirm. Seen it happen more than once and has a 100% success rate of manifesting into cancer.

Did the Jojo games leave a bad taste?

I have no say in what happened with H:O but it's just from observation over the years. and in the end the group is likely to tear itself apart.

Also speaking of H:O Project Anvil is still going on. That's all the info I could get

I'll be honest, I prefer stock maps. Really fucking hard to find stock maps + stock game modes and weapons.


I'm on this one right now.

Stock maps are alrgith, but the draw of HCE is the custom content. I want to either get some help with a lua script or do it myself and get race on that sonic riders map to work because I think people would love that shit

At least I was, until my game crashed after I alt-tabbed.


Whatever floats your boat but I just wanna play some Halo

Yeah you can't alt tab when in a game.

That's fine mate. I did have stock maps in the rotation. I'll add them and make em more prevalent. Also gonna try nad cut down on the occurrence rate of the star wars map. As fun as it is, I think it kills the server when it's anything less than near full

I was hoping you'd record the "air superiority" of CIA and Jaded. And how i blew both of them out of the sky.

Everything is recorded from my perspective.

Would recommend OBS for recording

I've got another clip uploading from coldsnap

I'd record shit myself, but first I need to solve the space problem.

OBS has a good compression rate for videos

it's not fraps tier
