did spartan 094 and delta not already do this? they made it pretty much perfect.

I have a question, with bipeds\vehicles\weapons whatever if you make it a shader_environment will the specular show? I know bump maps don't but i was wondering if specular would.

I see, that's why i can't see it. Lol, thanks, but my computer can't do OS either. But thanks for the tips and advice.

Well i don't know how to make it richer

Could you post a screenshot of the color change colors under C in your biped tag? that would help a lot.

nice looking render, for a second there i thought you had placed it in cry engine 3.

That's in Marmoset, which is a game engine, but used the presentation purposes.

Edit:


Probably a better screenshot.

What ever happened to this? I could use a ghillie suit... :/

Hey this may sound... different, But regarding that flood tank biped, Would it be possible for it to be rigged to the hunter's bones? What I mean is give it almost the same melee and movement animations as the hunter. I have been thinkin it would be cool to have it as an enemy, and being around the same size as a hunter, along with having a similar melee attack could it work?? I'm no good at rigging or animations, but i thought I'd just throw the idea out there for somebody who has the skills

Instead it'd be better to do custom animations.

Obviously true :p but i just thought it'd be less work

Should I make this?

yes you should definately make that

Hmm, think I might soon. I really like the look of it, Halo needs more ambient life tbh.

Needs moar Blind Wolves, Thorn Beasts, and Quad-Wings.

Someone did make Blind Wolves didn't they? A long time ago.

How i do not use colour change for it

Two words: Concept Art.

There are quite a few pictures of things that didn't quite make it into the game, like the EMP Soldier for instance:

Yeah its concept art, been looking for things that never made it in-game. I don't like Halowars, but some of the animal concepts that didnt make it are nice and actually look Halo. The rest of the game was crap and didnt look Halo, for example that disgusting picture above :)

Ive been trying to find the longsword concept art, but i dont think there is any which is strange :S

...Then how did you change the color of the armor to anything but white? did you change the color of the bitmaps? or make it have a different materiel color in the shader? please explain how you went about changing the color if you didn't use change color permutations.

Masterchief's texture is separate from the multiplayer spartan texture.

Masterchief's is green with more dirt and grime

He needs Kaboom Oxiclean. :|

if you're gonna model cut concept art based content, you should totally give this a try:



I modeled something based off of this in sculprtis once, then lost the files unfortunately. It was fun to make though

@ anonymous 2009

do you mean the shortsword?

@Delicon20: I will only be modelling nice and interesting things, which is a matter of opinion really, but I really dont like that at all.

@killzone: nope, i mean actual Longsword from Halo 1, 2, 3 and Reach. The Shortsword is a different vehicle.

The problem I have with those particular concepts for halo 2, was that it would make it more of a generic sci-fi game. It wouldn't be as interesting, and have all the little things that make Halo so awesome. Not saying Halo is completely different from your average sci fi game, but it is diffferent in a good amount.

I don't see how any of the cut content from halo 2 can break the game like you say it would. The thing about concept art is it's a concept. The rest of building new content (in this case a new race) would be how you developed the creature as a whole. The thing about halo's covenant is that the aliens are very different from the general idea of what aliens are imagined to be like to most of today's cultures. All it really takes is enough creativity to keep that feel while bringing the concept full circle and you can be successful in keeping the halo feel

Tbf, this:

Will not work in the Halo Universe. It is a really bad and ugly concept, it's not interesting AT ALL lol

Is there any Mass Effect content in the making apart from Saren and Sovereign?

Been trying to make some decent bumps for the h1 MC.
This will be released when finsihed, and it's not at all the final version.
I must say it looked kinda useless in game but still, it's here

Are you blind ? This is the standard h1 MC.

Really, are you ?
