I think it would be cool to have a device you can use to call in this beast to sweep the map and bombard enemy forces (SP) for just a few minutes. That would be awesome in something like A30 or B30.

@flyingpenguin117....THAT'S KICKING ASS AWESOME! I love the concept and idea that you put into the Longsword Plane! I think you should call it...the Long Plane. Not sure if it is any good but just an idea. Anyways nice job and are you any good with animations man? I need some help if you could assist me with one of my vehicles. Let me know flyingpenguin117 if you are any good with animating vehicles. Also i am hoping that you will release that Awesome invention of yours to the general public. A lot of people would use that in there maps. I for sure would use it in maps. Also....I noticed that you were asking about a Air Strike bombardment using that Plane. I think Muscl3r would be good at that. He seems to be a excellent scripter. Why don't you try asking him. he could (possibly) put something together for you. Anyways...Let me know if you are any good with vehicle animations and i will try to contact you once you let me know.

Keep up the AWESOME work man.

Actually am going to try to rig up some way to call air support from it from time to time. Possibly by radio or just at scripted moments in the mission.



lol. Actually the claymore is my vehicle, if you look at the top of his post he was quoting me. Also, I named it the claymore because all UNSC planes seemed to be named after swords:

Saber
Short Sword
Long Sword
Claymore

I will probably release it once I get all the bugs out.

SO if planes thingies are named after "swards" then how come "PELICAN" and "HAWK" are plane names?

rerout that ship is sexy

That's because the Pelican, Hawk, Hornet, and Falcon are VTOLs not planes.

I kinda beg to differ. The Hawk, Hornet, and Falcon are helicopters (because the fly with propellers and not jets). But the pelican can be considered a plain because it is powered by jet engines and not propellers. Hope this clears thing up a bit

The term VTOL stands for vertical take-off and landing and includes a wide verity of aircraft from the Osprey Helicopter to the Harrier Jet. I simply meant that only non-VTOL UNSC aircraft are named after swords.

I thought they were just animal names
Edited by XlzQwerty1 on Feb 6, 2011 at 06:47 PM

You just rendered your own argument invalid. If the Pelican is a plane then it would have a sward name.

It doesn't really matter anyway. I was just explaining my reason for the name of my gunship. Let's just get back on topic.

@The LongSword Modification:
All he has done is take the longsword, stretched it and duplicated parts. No modelling or anything involved. So no it is not good. It is rather poor.

People of this community fail to see things like this though.

you know what I think?

people care too much about little details that nobody gives two balls about.

So......Does that mean you like the model HaloIsAHorribleGane?.....Or not? And to anonymous_2009...Great way to ruin the moment. And also NO modeling would include him just ripping the model and claiming it to be his. Maybe you should consider what you say before you say it. Because what i am seeing is that he ACTUALLY did some modeling on the model. He ACTUALLY put some work into it...some effort. So why don't you make sure you look and understand the situation BEFORE judging others. Wow....what a jerk.

Anyways....model looks awesome man! Don't listen to people like anonymous_2009...they don't know what they are talking about.

oh man, hunter's response to that is going to be so juicy

Please... go back to Halo CE Technical... before you embarrass yourself more...

He selected different element's from a model and moved them around, then duplicated them. And maybe I should consider what I say? How about you take your own advice, i'm stateing the truth as everyone else seems to lack that ability.

Doing the guy up the arse over such a effortless model isn't going to help him. He didn't put much effort into it at all. And care to prove that i don't know what I'm talking about? I sure you do not know what your talking about.

@Gane: You know it's the truth anyway. :)

Combo breakah!!!

Yeah Hunter. He moved stuff around and dup'd it therefore putting effort into it.

settle down hunter its actualy good and you know it. so what he just welded stuff together.

its still custom. and isnt that what CE is? Custom edition?

if not care to explain what the CE stands for?

oh yeah telling him to go away is gonna work, cause no one has tried that before :P

plus hunter may be an arse when critiquing but he is brutally honest, which has helped me improve. because of him and other arses like him who tell me my stuff was too boxy, sucked, and needed to be redone, i have become better, not a master, but better. dont like it? well tough tittles...(did i just say tittles?....) even if no one makes stuff to impress him, wouldn't you rather try to improve then do some lackluster dupl' stuff? cause if everyone thought that way we be much more screwed then the human race already is....

First, I clearly stated that the model was a modified longsword. If I remember correctly I made it that way because I "thought" it might look better if I used in-game resources. However, I do agree that it would be better if I would model it from scratch. I will probably remodel it from scratch whenever I have the time and see what I come up with.

tommyvercettiownz123 - Who are you?



I am settled tah, and no, it isn't good. It's something a child playing with lego would make.

No, it's not CUSTOM, it's a modification of poor quality, as you can see, there is no effort put in as he could of unwrapped it again so that the UV's match better and don't just stretch. That's would be more custom.

What does CE stand for? Well, it's something you are, a C*** Eater.

Edit:


You see, the guy himself admit's he could have done better, which was the main thing I was pointing out. Unlike you lot he is going to improve by taking crit, so I have no problem with him.

Of course, people on Halomaps have to join in on a reply which is not intended for them.

@rerout343 - I wasn't intending to insult you or anything btw, just that people were giving to much credit for something that is not difficult when you can do better.

It would not help you improve at all, it would do the opposite.
Edited by anonymous_2009 on Feb 7, 2011 at 04:00 PM

tommyvercettiownz123 might just be assassincheif...

Actually, I remember now. I made the model this way because I was just experimenting to see what the longsword would look like if were turned into a gunship(or flying fortress, lol), and I just liked enough to keep it. But I will model a new one from scratch, I have some ideas that make it come out better than this one.

Well even though it was a experiment....you should stick up for yourself and you model. Even though you maybe have just modeled a little and did something.....it's better then nothing. So don't let people like anonymous_2009 push you around and say you did nothing and that you put NO effort into the model you have worked on. You ACTUALLY did something and that's what matters, so stick up for yourself and tell him who's boss. That's what i do when someone tells me my model looks like crap or when "looks" like i did nothing, when i ACTUALLY did something and i ACTUALLY worked on the model. Most people (but not all) rip models and claim they are theirs and do nothing to make the model better or make it function better. But you actually put some effort into the model. Anyways, keep up the good work man. And good luck with you model!

because I care so much about a bunch of twelve year olds jacking each other off over a ten year old game engine

/i gave valid crit, to help him improve. You sucking up to him so you cam, well, suck him, will not help him improve. He accepted the crit like a good member.

You on the other hand are now butt-hurt over some crit that wasn't for you.

And by saying that you will argue with someone who gives you crit is rather pathetic, you accept it and choose to learn from if you wish. No intention of sounding big headed here, but i have more experience and knowlege from you. Also, a member has also stated that my crit helps, so take the hint.

Grow up.

irony



seems to me people who try to justify unnecessary personal insults and breaking forum rules because their crit is valid are the ones who should be "growing up," just saying

He cried, so I insulted. So...

sooooo you honestly don't see the blatant irony in someone like yourself telling people to grow up?

really?

YeahYeah :)

I'm not the one crying or insulting for no reason, there is a reason. And I want to insult, so get over it. No one else will tell them.

Tbh no one on this forum would get anywhere without more of the senior members because everyone just says crap things are awesome. So no one tried to improve.



Edited by anonymous_2009 on Feb 8, 2011 at 08:30 AM

i'm not gonna get to involed in this as i would rather not be banned.
but to say "he cried,so i insulted"

that tells me your just trying to take advantage of the person now.
that's not mature man.


yeah i know,needs a lot of work.bigger wings,seat,windscreen.
anything else i havnt thought of?
Edited by ally on Feb 8, 2011 at 08:40 AM

I don't know, basic logic tells me there's a tiny, tiny bit of a difference between telling somebody what's wrong with their model and how to improve, and making personal attacks, calling people names, breaking the forum rules and justifying it with "my crit is valid." I think I get it though. if I disagree with anyone or if they cry over something I say, it's perfectly acceptable for me to break the rules and resort to insults and name calling. I mean hell, it's all okay if I have a reason, right? I mean, you said so yourself

well, according to your logic, since I disagree with you, there is valid reason for me to imply that you sexually pleasure men and have not even the slightest interest in females, and your anus prolapses like freshly-cut beef through a meat grinder from all of the constant, never-ending jackhammer abuse it receives from your older siblings and other male relatives.



that model is fantastic and you should be proud

@HaloIsAHorribleGane - No, they cry, I get attacked. I insult. The same thing everytime. People need to learn to accept crit.
