I thought I was the only how did that? Nice job man. THat's like getting a "0" on your SAT. Not easy...

I know right, I'm truly pro.

Did you convert to mesh before export?

Yeah, I think it might be because the mesh is made up of extruded planes and bridged edges.

It's because you're exporting with bluestreak.

How does Bluestreak have anything to do with that?

I'm exporting from 3ds max 8 with blitzkrieg.

Because Bluestreak sucks at exporting everything except bipeds using the skin modifier. Its utterly useless when exporting anything else

Useless is you're using 3ds max version 8. It's very, very useful for the other versions.

In my experience with bluestreak the first 20 exports of any given level will tell me that I have a billion non existing open edges, then I will have to recreate geometry and mess around with the level until it finally decides to work and then it will export the geometry with flipped faces (as if I had ripped it from halo 2 or 3)




Import the levelname.wrl in your CE root directory. There will be 3 options. Uncheck all of them. It will highlight the errors for you.

I did that =P that's how I found out every single edge except for maybe 8 of them were open.

What the hell did I do to this thread?

Editable Poly -> Vertex mode -> Ctrl + A -> Weld at 0.0001

I've never had that problem, I have 3Ds Max 2011 and solely rely Bluestreak for BSP exporting.

Your flipped stuff is because you need to reset X-Form.

Murder it eh?

Eh, didn't work, i'll just remodel the whole thing.

Dunno about you, but I get the same error as Elefant when I export a BSP with it in Max 9.

did a little work on a new interior for human ships/stations hallways.
I am not so sure on a few of the texture strips for the walls I may change them because they look over-detailed to me. Might just be me though.

That render. *Sniff*

It's.

BEAUTIFUL.



*cries*

its too repetitive with the shapes, add flat panel textures to it.

Are you guys forgetting to convert to editable mesh before you export?

Sort of what I was thinking as well. Maybe for those parts I'll have a painted detail on them. Thanks for the crit.

Finished the Plasma pistol.

FP with the electricity added near the power nodes.


FP with the added charge particle things.


Dunno why I took this.


3P with custom collision I made for it.

Best halo 3 pic I could find on google images.

Josh told me to model something. Nuff said.

Horray! More stuff to never make it into the halo engine. How wonderful!

can any one see the image he posted?

yes

Could not disagree more, looks fantastic like it is.

Here's my halo 3 ghost with custom shaders :

Damn, that is a sweet ghost you might say

Looks nice, but i dont think MC can see where he is going.
Especially with that blinding lens flare in his face.

Fix the welding on the front of the ghost and reduce the size of the lens flare to about 25% and it will be perfect. Maybe reduce the hexagons on the multi a tiny bit if you can.

And get the Illum on there too.

Agreed. Tone down the lens flare probably and it would look fine.
