Re: Halo 3 Trick: Crow's Nest Truth Cutscene Rooms

In Response To: Halo 3 Trick: Crow's Nest Truth Cutscene Rooms (The SuperWaffle)

: Hey guys Waffle here! Excited to show you guys another cool cutscene room on
: the Halo 3 level Crows Nest. The first problem with this cutscene room was
: locating it. Usually for most cutscene rooms, if we wanted to know where
: it is we would turn on pancam during the cutscene and look at the
: coordinates. However, since the camera is never technically in the room
: and is just pointing at the TV screen, we never got a real read on where
: the room actually is in the level. Once we found where and when the room
: is loaded, the trick was on the cusp of being completed.

: What makes this trick possible is the pelican not deloading with the hanger
: area, the hanger area's elastic barrier deloading when we deload the
: Hanger BSP, and the existence of the deployable cover on the map. All
: these things were able to be combined to get into both of Truth's cutscene
: rooms.

: There is a reason that we do the DC clip from outside rather than doing it
: inside the drone cave. DC clipping is a whole lot easier and faster when
: trying to go horizontally into a room. We needed enough pressure and speed
: to go through both the initial mountain, and the wall of the cutscene
: room. If we were to do the clip from above the rooms instead ,we would
: have to go through the floor of the drone cave and the ceiling of the
: cutscene room to get in. That wouldn't be possible with the knowledge
: known now because of the lack of speed you get from a vertical DC clip
: compared to a horizontal DC clip.

: I hope y'all enjoy! We had a bunch of fun doing it and not so much fun
: filming it. Please 343 add saving films and file share transfer for Halo 3
: MCC!!! We have a whole bunch of videos up our sleeves in the near future,
: so stay tuned!

Awesome! Just one question at the end of the video you had a scene of the screen with the elite on it, was that possible or was that just staged?
