HEY! LISTEN! 64x64 FOR MOBS AND ITEMS THAT USE THE ENTIRE TILE!! 32x32 FOR ITEMS/MACHINERY/ALL ELSE! ^THIS guy was right! Just put |32px on everything that ends up too big, the big sprites will be great for the (eventual) items-other-than-guns page.

HEY! Turns out 32x62 works best to avoid the "big space".

How to make big sprites for guides:

  1. Open the .dmi you need in Dream Maker.
  2. Take a picture of the sprite you want, preferably as close to its original 32x32 square as posible.
  3. Paste the picture in Photopea.
  4. Depending on how much of the 32x32 .dmi area the sprite uses:
    1. If the sprite does NOT use the full 32x32 area, center a 64x32 area on the sprite (might end up as 640x320 or so in Photopea). We do this to keep avoid an ugly-looking space when pairing text with images.
    2. If the sprite uses the full 32x32 area, skip to the next step.
  5. Use "Magic Wand" to select the background. A tolerance of 50 is usually enough to properly separate the BG, but you may have to lower it for some sprites.
  6. DEL the selected areas (should be just the BG).
  7. Export it as a 64 by 64 image

BINGO BANGO BIG SPRITES! Now to do this for all the ones I've alredy done... aha...

If everything looks terrible from this embiggening then put |32px at their ends to bring 'em back to native.

For gifs, use these for layer names to frame them as GIF frames.

_a_frm2,200

_a_frm1,200

_a_frm0,100


They'd be, from top to down: frame 3, 2, 1.

NEVERMIND! Make a gif straight from the .dmi to get the intervals, paste that into Photopea then start making PNGs with the interval names.

Put the TOC on the right side of the screen, figure out the possibility of putting it up after the icons.

Welcome to the server! This guide is meant to guide you through the basics of Halostation 13, from spawning in to getting into fights. While this page focuses on the former, links at the bottom will be provided so you can learn the initial loop of each of the server's factions.

Before you Begin

  • To ensure a smooth experience, use these settings.

Character Creation (replace inner headers with bold+big(?) to keep them from apearing on the TOC when going live, keep as-is here for ease of writing)

While most of the Character Creation options, some of them the features are inconsequential, a few Already familiar with Baystation12's character setup page? Skip to the faction guides. [Steal this stuff from the CM13 wiki.]


Some roles spawn with different gear depending on their title, such as Marines with the "EVA Operations Marine" title spawning with armor resistant to the vacuum of space (at the detriment of protection). Loadout tab is mostly intended? synergyc? to be used for Colonist and Insurrectionist roles, as Covenant roles cannot spawn with loadout items and they also conflict with most UNSC gear (i.e. uniforms, armor, etc.) everything in the glasses tab overriding the HUDs As a general rule of thumb:

  • UNSC roles use this color scheme.
  • Covenant roles use this color scheme.
  • URF roles use this color scheme.

Keep in mind that older gamemodes may use different colors for each faction.

Choose Your Faction

After creating your character, you will have to choose who to fight for as each faction has different equipment, gameplay loops and motivations. Each being: Replace these with your own icons showcasing varied kinds of toons.

Enjoy your stay!

Stuff above was meant for the QSG but didn't make it (except the pending URF guide), below is for the combat mechanics page. Remember to add a section for the UNSC to what to do after surviving the defense. Maybe? Or keep that for the Reclamation page? Make a quick dropship flying guide.

Game Mechanics

General


Population Balance

Keeps one side from having 6 elites or 30 marines. Does not take into account mobile spawns.

TacHUD.png HUD Drops

Officers get to call in supply drops.

Note: Personalized drops only take into account items you have equipped (hands included) at the time of opening or refreshing the pop-up tab.

Combat


Automatic Reloads

With a magazine in your active hand, you can reload your weapon with tactical and speed reloads:

  • With grab intent enabled, you can do a tactical reload that will switch the magazine in your weapon with the one in your active hand. [specify times? maybe not...]
  • With harm intent enabled, you can do a [name of reload that panic drops the mag] reload which is faster than a tactical reload but will drop the loaded magazine on the ground.

File:CrosshairFiring.png Click-dragging

Lets you redirect fire but wont hit as often. Also screws you if you're fighting flyers.

Energy Sword.png Executions

Melee weapons can be used to execute unconscious enemies, allowing you to ensure they cannot be resurrected (unless they have already ghosted). To do this, click on a prone player with a melee weapon on your active hand while targetting their chest with grab intent. If you have done it correctly and the target is not braindead, you will receive a message indicating the beginning of the execution and must remain still for X seconds to complete it. Once it is finished, smack sound. /the executed player will be forcibly ghosted.

Dodge Rolling

An ODST doing a backflip over a table

Dodge rolling can be used to evade attacks, or quickly move across obstacles such as tables. For most species the rolling distance is 2 tiles, but some such as the T'vaoans To use it, you must create macros for the following verbs: - "roll-north" - "roll-south" - "roll-east" - "roll-west"

Reckon you could do a pretty sick fade-in effect with an image of each faction rallying for a raid. Remember Raze? Yeah, something like that. Replace the ARK with a fitting pict with enough transparency. ...though it may look very scuffed on Mobile.
