also the friendly spartan setting doesnt work for me, doesnt throw out an error or anything. toggle just doesnt work. at least master chief is friendly!

they only lock onto one target at a time and REFUSE to attack anyone/anything else until the target dies which makes npc fights really weird and also makes it pretty difficult to fight them with another player since theyll go for only one person

They also can tank like 5 rounds of hunter's blast cannons.

Their weapons don't really do much damage anymore. It takes a long time for them to be killed. Regular humans tank the swords with 4 hits.

i hope he updates it and fix's some of the bugs

i think this needs another update because of the thing they ran on got changed. they seemed to of broken the same as the SPV3 halo npcs that also need a update. is there a way to get a older version of whatever these npcs run on?

the marines that spawn in the warthog sometimes have their guts out lmao

the enemies dont fire their weapons they just charge

is there a reason why the spirit flies down it flings some covenant away

(its actually pretty hilarious)

Are shade turrets invincible? Not even spartans seem to be able to kill them

Master chief seems to prefer to run up close to enemies rather than shoot them at a distance, also he can't throw grenades very well they always end up at his feet

I used it on peer to peer and it worked okay, depends on the map, if you use them on for example a map with lots of displacements (for instance a very hilly area) and spawn a LOT of them might be laggy.

Can i use this for a large scale server ? was wondering if its ok ??

ight, thanks a lot

Hey!! Try installing Draconic base, should make it so cubemap brightness scales dynamically.
I'll try to make them less shiny for vanilla Gmod soon.

yea quick question, why are the cubemaps so bright?

actually why they all so shiny

dumb question are the weapons required? asking because i'll just be watching them fight lol

@ Lunar Chris there is, just type hce_destructabledropships I think

If this mod is gonna be updated, could you add a toggle to make dropships destructible?

Noted

@KirkRonanCrusader make sure you have cubemaps on (mat_specular 1)

for some reason the npcs dont have the shine shown in the screenshots, leading to them looking kinda bland. is this intended or not?

this comment thread is dead asl 💀

chat why does the pelican drive in the ground on gm_construct

can the dropships be destroyed?

Need some help, I can't get these guys to spawn. Do they have compatability issues with other Halo nextbots or something? And I don't mean I get an ERROR model, I mean nothing spawns at all. I figure either incompatible with something or I'm missing something.

could you make these npcs friendly with other covenant mod npcs

can i just say that this is one of the best gmod mods i have ever used 10/10 good job

@nateyolo98 - no navmesh on your map.

hey idk why but the npc just spin around

is there any way to make unsc npcs friendly to players?

im having a problem with many of the NPCs not being able to shoot their weapons so they just charge

fix is NextBot [113][npc_iv04_hce_spartan] Error: lua/entities/npc_iv04_hce_spartan/shared.lua:392: attempt to index a nil value

I see! I couldn't find any settings on the Options or Utilities tabs, so I assumed there was no such option. Thank you!

@Goderack - try "iv04_nextbot_drop_weapons 0"
Thank you!

Could you add a convar to enable/disable enemies from dropping their weapons upon death?

Really good addon btw.

@tune9000 apologies, will fix soon

for some reason when the pelican exploddes it plays a rly loud sound that doesn't stop playing unless i cleanup

spawning a minor elite crashes the game- no idea why

dayum dopey, your cooking with these nextbot mods 🧨

pure and untouched by 343

Both the Elite (1999) and Elite Specops Officer have this issue.
NextBot [119][npc_iv04_hce_elite_specops_officer] Error: lua/entities/npc_iv04_hce_elite_minor/shared.lua:2013: bad argument #1 to 'StartActivity' (number expected, got nil)

NextBot [119][npc_iv04_hce_master] Error: lua/entities/npc_iv04_hce_elite_minor/shared.lua:2013: bad argument #1 to 'StartActivity' (number expected, got nil)

any world spawner in the mod

I recommend installing Draconic base in order for their cubemaps to dynamically change intensity based on the lighting they are in.

I'll try to put a patch out regardless

In my game the textures on the Covenant, and some other nextbots like the pelican, are messed up. They appear very bright and look very shiny. Most UNSC Nextbots work fine but its the covenant thats always shiny looking. Otherwise a very good mod

the spec ops officer seems to get stuck standing or crouching. NextBot [39][npc_iv04_hce_elite_specops_officer] Error: lua/entities/npc_iv04_hce_elite_minor/shared.lua:2013: bad argument #1 to 'StartActivity' (number expected, got nil)

any good covenant maps that anybody knows of?

I love this mod, can't wait for the bugs to get worked out. Mainly the slow movements, and occasional npc stuttering.

Why do the grunts run in slow motion?
