Okay Guys, I hope to begin to make a map for Narrows, and was wondering if anyone would like to join my team I am going to form. Right now its only in the (hoping) planning stages, so I would like to see if anyone would join. Id especially like it if Jay and those who helped him could join because of his experience with the canceled Last Resort Map.

My only real strong points are Modeling the overall map, so I know that I could use a ton of help from you. I am ideally looking for a team of 5 to 7 MAJOR contributors and a few others who have had experience with previous maps.

IF we begin it will become completely private except for monthly updates.

EDIT: I still would like the idea passed on. I had legitimate thoughts of if nothing else, getting the idea going.

people want to see someones skill before joining a project team. you should show some work.

you just joined today so noone reallys knows if you can map and at what quality.

if you can show me that you can model ill join ive been looking for a team

Wont be the same though. Man Canons dont sync.

Nevermind then...

Okay, let me render it. (waits 4 hours)

again if you relly can model I would be more than happy to join

*Loads up Bryce, Gmax, Firefox, and HEK+ at the same time tries to close gmax (after an hour), and gets poo. poo=system critical (blue screen of death [I proceed to pound on keyboard, yelling at the stupidest thing, exactly what zanzibar's blue screen of death tells me to do)) opened files=gone! (Loses like 20 hrs of work) windows tells my that it was a "stop error" in a driver, opened files got deleted (who knows how)
"Hard reboot.... everything's okay............ nothing but those prev. opened files were truly affected.

Blast Turbosquid for not ever updating Gmax and making it more user-friendly and causing a random crash.

Sometimes I wish everything halo worked on linux, along with extra things such as MS Flight Sim and DX 10.x

Edit: I will be forced to show a Bryce 5.5 (its free now) unfinished render.

I would help you but I cant model :(.

I will give you advice on what to put where and if you forgot something, so, good luck!

show me your render please

I am prone to forgetfulness lol. as I work with my older model(s), I forgot what all the group names were., making it hard to work with. Anywho, I had something going for this model; and stopped working on it for two reasons:
1: I moved, and didnt get the computer back up and running for about a month.
2: In that time I also Forgot what I was going to do with it (Halo 3, MS flight Sim x, and making new friends and stuff got in the way)
Link for .Tif coming soon as I look for a place to upload.

photobucket is good

Photobucket!

I went with Deviant art. NOTE: the following image is not a full view!

that thing is horrible I can model better then that
and that should be an insult beacuase I can barely model

I told you it was Old. I dont care. Im still learning modeling gmax. (*runs off and cries, gets 100x better and returns a month later*)

Newho, I will still come up with ideas of how I can approach modeling narrows. I find your "thoughts" , more constructive criticism than insulting. I will continue. Whether or not you will find it painful is something that is worth wondering about. I m sorry you guys that I couldn't impress you. I want Narrows. Will be adding more images to that account's profile but apparently it may only make it worse, but hey, Im still learning, your still learning, you know.

Im not being mean or anything but....

How do you expect to model Narrows with that?

I didnt. I just thoght- hey, narrows is pretty easy as far as Maps go, you see. Its a bridge sticking out into the center of a ravine. the overall shape of the map is easy, how it starts wide and then gets thin. for the things the R L is sitting in on the center of the map, would be pretty straightforward ( was thinking of just making them unmovable scenery ). the only parts I would have the largest problems with are underneath the bridge, the scenery, and the minute details of the models. This map should have (other than last resort) been the first one planned for hce.

I've come back, I can model now! And Script! And do particles! And make stuff in Open Sauce! And make custom vehicles! And Custom Scenery!

But alas, after all this time... I cannot make Valhalla in Halo, I've got too many original ideas in my head.

Let's just say... it sucked. rectangle + 2 cylinders with some cones on top and spheres set to negative to make windows.

Edit: And it was made in Bryce 5.5.

ill release H3MT narrows as soon as someone does the mancannons.

it could be great if you focused on the mancannons only.


here's what i have so far. abt 2 years of wk.

Why didn't they hire you to help make Halo Reach?

Because he still isn't nearly as professional as Halo Reach's modeling team?...

Also I don't think he has the correct degrees and all that other fancy jazz.

If you're referring to me.... I am still only 18 and no degree so I won't even get looked at.
