Hello, I have dicided that ive seen far to many newbs, and people that don't understand what they are doing, and I thought, "We could set up a schooling system so that they can talk to people that know what they are doing, and get tested on what they are taught to see how well they learned it".

This school won't only be for newbs, its even for fine tuning your current skills, but it is mainly to get less newbs around. There will be a few differnt classes, and depending on the teachers and demands, there may be more in the future. There is Newb, Normal, Intermediate, Advanced, and then 2 one day classes, Script, and Bitmap (mainly multiperpose maps).

We need teachers who understand each of these areas, and have free time that they could spend teaching at set times each day (script and bitmap might only be once every 2 weeks since its a one day class, and mest to have a full class to make best use of the teachers time)

So far we have 2 teachers, H guru for advanced, Cheatsman for Normal.

I do have a site I started setting up, but its not very organized yet, but I do have the start for the course outlines there.. sorry for the disorganization

View the outline page stated above if you are planning to enter any classes, and there will be a teacher meeting as soon as we have a full staff, then a assembly for the whole set of mappers enrolled where class times and stuff are set out.

Leave a message here if you plan to enter, don't PM me or E-mail me to try to be private, because everyone will see you while your inclass, so it will only make your classmates feel differnt about you since you don't want people to see your name.

hmm I guess I could teach a beginner texture art/concept art class...

I guess we can add a model based class, post some clay renders of your better models
and no detentions.. how would that would on the internet anyways?.. lol

ok, do you know anything about multiperpose maps? if not, ill try and explain em to you.
also.. post a pic of a texture you've made

well.. I guess I have to let my new Xfire out to the world.. im probly gonna recive like 30 friend requests now.. kirby422 is my new xfire, only add me if your wanting to become a teacher.

I want to be the newb!

I can teach a Advanced texturing class, tech people how to actually make their textures look GOOD

some1 should teach noobs how to play the game properly. I mean, whats the point in knowing all this if you suck at playing the final product? (ganon every1 thinks you're great at halo)


you can be my teacher then. :P


you could make them type out "I'm a noob", again & again through xfire for 10mins :P, even if they copy and paste, its still 10mins of typing "I'm a noob".

OH SNAP. <3
Anywho, I'm too busy to teach anything. so yeah

Kiwi would like to learn somethings.

what in particular Kiwi?

ill join the normal class i just hope i dont get too much homework

Sign me up for bitmap and script class.

Kiw would just take the newb class.

umm can i take modelling class for normal i kindof need it..

Not trying to be a moderator but this site is for Halo CE and Halo 2 vista, Halo 3 doesnt belong here because you cant make custom H3 content.

oh wait me wanna teach spaien to newbs

i could teach sp concepts and scripting and most of all: HUDS AND PICKUP ICONS!
only maybe though.... i mean i pretty busy too...

I'd really like to join. I kind of know modeling, but I might as well join the newb class considering I don't know much else. Keep me informed please. :)

my computer overheats last night and your all suddenly changing jobs?.. wtf? lol. what happened to you wanting to teach some modeling? lol


k, ill test you then, if you wana make a player have a ghost sent to him and force him to enter, what would you write your script out like?


that would be a newb course teacher, you understand all of the HEK basics like tool and guerilla, and could get them threw enough so that they can get some boxy pistol ingame by the end of the course?


sure, we can set up a SP course and then a HUD course, you can run those, the HUD one could be a one day one so that you dont spend to long on it, and then SP would be a normal course since it would be harder to explain

anyways, teachers, contact me on Xfire, kirby422

Well I had a good idea for a detention if anyone is a wise 4$$ to the t34c|-|3R5. Ill make a programm that continusly stops the explorer! And I finished a basic report card (Im teaching bitmapping...) You'll get graded on quality of bitmaps, level of noobyness, how much you help others, youre understanding of the knowledge, and how much you knew understood about alpha channels.

LOL, beta site banner XP

ok mabbey not senior member but ive been here for almost 7 months think
and yes i can teach noobs if there not bad and can listen

7 months=nothing.
1 year=sorta somethin
2+ years=something
Hosting this site=pwnage

lol

Dennis wins CE man of the forever award.

I dont see how this will work. The best idea I can think about is that the teahcers make a tutorial on their subject and hostes one every week. Other than that I think this will not help too much other than someone just asking a question.

Lol, I can teach pretty much everything now, from SP maps to bitmaps to weapons to HUDs to music to scripts. I even helped out Donut a little on his predicament-thingymajig.
So I guess I'll sign up for a teaching position. I mostly work with the HEK, but I can teach nublets how to model, since I do know how to plane and box model.
Let's just say this is what I did in my HCE College:
Majored: HEK, Scripting.
Minored: Modeling, bitmap making (I CAN make bitmaps, and make them well, too, it's just that I do it rarely).

hud teacher. i cant make actual textures for anything (does anyone else smell irony )

I smell it, lol. Poor Donut. Maybe I can hook you up with a tutorial.
