Because im that type of person who replys to these threads.
anyway,
are the human vehicles gonna be white like in coldsnap to go with the snow?
and before i get flamed, i know he accidently deleted everything.

earthtosquirrel.stoptypinglikethis.qwepirandeveryoneelsethinksitsretarded.

And snow vehicles, I don't know if that question has been answered.

Wait, he accidentally deleted everything? What happened? Did he highlight everything in every section, press the delete button on accident, and then save it, on accident? Or did something else happen? He said he was deleting some stuff, then everything got deleted. If the map got deleted, dig around in the recycling bin. This is where an UNDO button would come in handy. And as someone else suggested, get the most recent beta and start from that, unless you did that already.
And the object in the distance looks like he put it there using paint.

1- for dark ninja's question; actually somehow he ended up causing the globals for extinction to go into default[so most of the vehicles that were not put in by script were reverted to origionals]
2- to all of you who like doing the admin thing and flame spamming people; dennis will get around to dealing with problematic people so don't worry about it
3- yes the snow camo human vehicle question was answered and the answer was yes
4- as for noob weaponry... any weapon or vehicle can be considered the noob weapon if used properly[like me and rocket launchers]
5- the question over a human anti air weapon or vehicle has been answered [im trying to get the model for the rocket buggy back so it can be armed]... Egg prefers the vehicle over a long ranged rocket launcher


and here's the buggy ^_^
Edited by Switchblade on Aug 19, 2008 at 02:04 PM

I agree that the wheels should be changed. But it's supposed to have rockets and it's supposed to be a ground vehicle. Maybe make it like the wolverine from Halo Wars? The anti-air tank thing.

actually... i was going for this

The pic is the form this vehicle takes before it gets an upgrade to the larger rocket pods my current version has. Also, when this vehicle was first introduced to people in my last forum the change of tires was discussed and btw... this is a human anti aircraft vehicle... not covie so no hover or flying!

I know. You used to be a bit of a noob yourself, as far as how you talked.
ex:
But at least you grew up.


Anyway, back on topic...
How's teh covvie hanger goin!!1!?/!? lawl jk

As for hover vehicles, if the humans reverse-engineered plasma batteries and crap like that into the spartan laser, then they could reverse-engineer a captured Wraith, ghost, or spectre into a hovercraft of sorts.

True, quepir...

here we go...
1- ive already cleared the design with egg and obviously since it is an "anti- aircraft" weapons platform it will not fly! Also, the spartan laser was more or less a reverse engineered sentinal beam just more concentrated and uses shorter blasts.
2- obviously not all flying things that the humans have were stolen from the covenant[i thought the differnce was implied by the fact that when you destroy a human vehicle it burns due to fuel and doesn't glow, overload, and explode like most covie vehicles] and hover technology is specifically covie[besides... we don't want this thing to be too manuverable which making it hover would do... also in this type map hover vehicle tend to be easy to flip which is bad if you are running from an enemy in the air)]

If i fix up the CMT old brutes for multiplayer, I'll put them in the mod.

make it so u can go in the menu and choose brute elite grunt or sentanle

Actually, its sentinel. But who gives a crap. Brutes and elites, mebbeh could be a model replacement for the red team, I know CMT's frozen swamp or whatever had Different models for different teams, and seemingly all the play as a grunt, and play a an elite in multiplayer mods alternate between curlback/normal for grunts and the elite's head changes, so It may be possible. But grunts? With shields? No. And sentinels would be unfair. They can fly. And shoot lasers.

for the record...
1- grunts having shields has no particular fails[due mainly to the fact that one can say that they are cyborg grunst]
2- please keep one team as cyborgs[idc what you make the other team... just know that if you use different bipeds you have to reset all weapons animations to work for the biped you choose]
3- sentinels are a big no:
they are too slow, they have horrible turning radious's and aim, they can fly and camp like no ones business, and quite frankly i hate the dang things

There is no way you can do that...at all. Brutes, elites, grunts, and sentinels have completely different animations, so they cannot be combined into different permutations of one biped.

Well, i'm using CMT's old brutes.

Currently they have no unit hud interface, but if I just make a new one or use an existing one, can i get the biped for multiplayer?

Well, I also have to add camera tracks...Is that it?

you don't have a right to tell anyone to to gtfo.and theres no rule against talkinglikethis so stop abusing the guy :l.


if there not related to the thread, then don't post them. if they are or vehicles etc go ahead.

no theres a way out switch blade got out with a pelican i seen

Need info, where?

ya when ur in the blue base and ur in a pelican u can go outa the game on the right side

How about a new pelican?

The one from coldsnap is perfect.

Well, I just download an old beta, and pick off from there :P

Anyway, the gunner in the hind area is perfect, the pelican in coldsnap has balance and is pretty much glitch free.

that could get irritating. but im sure its possible.... i has ideas :)

I like it like that :(

1- i never got out of the pit... you host killed me...[to jack sparrow]
2- yes the coldsnap pelican is well balanced[if you have a gunner] except for a few minor things that can be fixed:
a) the gun turret in the back does little to no damage[up the damage effect?]
b) it is too easy to flip[i've managed to flip it on takeoff[no flipping... like the wraith in main game?]
c) it has little turning ability[when turning sharply you end up crashing into the ground]
d) its vulnerable to guass turrets[possibly only the mounted ones?]
3- brutes in extinction... how in the world did they get there and who is going to redo all the weapons animations, biped rigging, and vehicle entry scripts?
4- we need to make the mongoose heavier or we need to adjust the brakes so that you can't flip it by trying to slow down...

hmmm forgot about that :P and wats the diff with brutes and elites?

We all have a different view of what is awesome and fun.

Coldsnap is the best out of the three main "behemoth" maps.
Coldsnap is actually pretty well thought out and well modelled.

Hugeass is just for having fun.
It attracts vpeople because it is a huge arena with pelicans and longswords.
It is fun, IMO.

Extinction...

Unbalanced, unfair, not very fun.
Not a bad map, it is just extremely unbalanced.

You can't say those other maps are way better and more awesome and think that it is fact. We all have a different view on things.

Anyway, I don't see why people like you get so defensive on this issue.

Seriously, I understand you point of view, but just understand that the majority find these maps fun.

From your point of view you probably see a random assortment of heavy superpowered weapons and vehicles, but it isn't. It is a map. Sure, a different kind of map than the ones you call 'awesome', but just because they are different from the type of maps that you like, doesn't mean they suck.

Think about it. Say you don't like chocolate. Does that mean chocalate is a terrible thing?

i agree with rooster becuase i like close range intense fire fights and stuff and i dont like sitting their waiting for a battle or having to look for on. but yes egg i do agree with your point of veiw everyone has something they enjoy. like my freind likes drums and hates guitar but i like both but hate bass.

Yes. I has the beta scenario from when i left off nao :D

Walk on walls...I had removed that, but, if you want it back, please tell me.

Well, I may just move it.

One problem though, it is high poly. High poly = lagfest. The BSP itself of extinction is actually quite low poly.

please... no hippo. The hippo is fugly. Add this:

no, that is fugly add a hippo

UPDATE:



Also, something i forgot to add into the picture, banshees will be removed. Way too big of a map, and way too underpowered here...

Of course, maybe they can replace the mongooses...?

yah wat part of ANY SURFACE dont u understand? you will still off, its like every material is a ladder. which wont make sense. and is dum

Walking anywhere is a feature I am still quite unsure about.
