Re: Orion Style Mainhalls [NEW BETA THREAD]
Ok, well I just did some testing. It's already supposed to do this. However it's not working correctly code side. I'll have to mantis it.

Re: Orion Style Mainhalls [NEW BETA THREAD]
The Galatea mainhalls are now complete. You can get them in the first post.

I'll be discussing with the FSPort team on how to get these to work in FSPort now that both Bastion and Galatea are completed.

Re: Orion Style Mainhalls [NEW BETA THREAD]
These look HORRID.

If HORRID = AWESOME
I think I'll call REAL Mahjong 'Chinese Dominoes', just to make people think I'm an ignorant asshat.

 
Re: Orion Style Mainhalls [NEW BETA THREAD]
Any chance of a patch file of the build?
May the Force be with you

Thanks to Flaming_Sword for the tidbit on how to do this little number...

Now I just need to be able to specify 2 keyframes so I can have door intro, door loop, and door outro. :D

Re: Orion Style Mainhalls [NEW BETA THREAD]
The marines do exactly what they did in the original mainhalls.. deal with it.

But now they can do with without going from POSE to POSE.

Re: Orion Style Mainhalls [NEW BETA THREAD]
I have a request, would it be possible to make the valky that flies outside do the flyby faster and with a motion blur effect?

Note that I haven't checked with the original one to see how it plays on it, I'm just saying it might look better this way.

Re: Orion Style Mainhalls [NEW BETA THREAD]
No, it's not possible. Because I'm lazy. Because there's no reason the Valk's can't be flying slow. Cables are too thick.

Oh yeah. Forgot that we had that conversation... But as I recall, YOU already know why I didn't make them salute.. so stop asking for it.

For those not in the know.. the shoulder pads clip pretty bad if I go for the full salute.

I thought they would trip over the way too thick cables while saluting (srsly who cares?).

Re: Orion Style Mainhalls [NEW BETA THREAD]

Indeed.

In other news, I updated the download links in the first post with a bit of a reorganization/fix.

First, many of the sounds were still stereo (oops) which mean panning wouldn't work. All sounds are now mono OGG files.
Second, some of the mainhalls had incorrect sound panning properties, which I have now fixed.

Finally, all the mainhalls use the same pool of sounds and mainhall-snd.tbm. Originally, they all used similar sounds but they were tabled individually for each mainhall.

(I was trying to keep the amount of data down and the original way meant only the sounds used were packaged with any mainhall. But, I couldn't use a tabled pool for one main reason. I would need to use +nocreate for every sound because FSO warns about duplicate sounds otherwise. But since this are supposed to be built to be additive and individual, I had no way to table sounds that would be created only if they didn't previously exist. After converting all the sounds to mono OGG, they take up almost no space.. so I just decided that I would include them all in every mainhall whether they are used or not. Each mainhall pack includes the same mainhall-snd.tbm which ensures all sounds are tabled and none are needlessly duplicated.

This also fixes an issue where if you had all the mainhalls in a mod and flipped through them in a single instance of FSO, some sounds wouldn't play due to some overload in the number of Interface Sounds tabled or something that I never really tracked down.)

It's so full of win that those small details are completely unimportant for me.

The only relevant question I have is... when is someone going to use these in their mods?
