TECHNICAL CRAP (map editors read this):
-around 1,700 triangles
-craft has no cockpit, but seats still work
-to get in the ship, climb up a wing or the tail area, and walk to the left window for thedriver seat, right window for gunner
-bottom hatch does nothing, only there for looks
-rockets do nothing against other stingrays, as far as I've tested, making the rocket an air-to-ground weapon only
-gauss cannons might need damage adjustments
-SPECIAL BONUS: Personalize your stingray! I've included a pack of different colored cubemaps. Open the shader labeled "r_steellight.shader_model", scroll down to the cubemap, and from there you can choose any one of the cubemaps I've included in the zip. Want a gold Stingray? go for it

INSTALLATION: Just stick the folder "nuggastingray" in Halo Custom Edition\tags\vehicles

*remember to set the necessary flags and globals settings before attempting to compile the map.

<3 at the credits :P

im downloading now :D

lol we had fun beta testing it.... bob and ray were there..... but we forgot about joe and curly.

IMO the different color cubemaps are probably a waste of space, seeing as anyone can just take the white cubemap and change the tint color. Want gold? Set red to 10 and green to 9.

lulz:

looks cool. THANK GOD YOU DIDNT PUT A NUKE ON IT.

Shiny.... :D

shooting at the bloody thing for an hour to get your shields down to one with that golden pistol sure was fun XD hope you fixed it so that it can actually hit me this time (kept jumping over his guass shots) anyways it flies like a LS only more sensitive and smoother :3 good job nugga glad to see you finally finished it, and it's a major improvement over the very first one.

bow down to the perty perty shiny shiny >:D

aww, u didnt fix modify the collision so the occupants can take damage, the old longswords took forever to kill, cuz u could only really damage them fully through the windows. should i release a v2 with fixed collision tags?

It looks so awesome, but I still like the longsword better :D

Just my opinion, in no way am i saying your vehicle is bad. It is awesome.

heh

nice quote

well no one's reported any missing tags, so I think I'll upload it.

There are no missing tags.

Ahahahha.

Done. I think I did it right.

Did you make up the SFV-314C part? Or does it mean something?

I used US military aircraft designations for the first 3 letters
S=Spacecraft
F=Fighter
V=VIP transport
the 314 is my birth date, March 14th (1992)
and the C is the version of the ship (or the 3rd version)
The Stingray name was given because of the craft's shape.

Thats cool, i think ill do something like that with my vehicle. I just put random letters and numbers.

Not bad Mr. N. I like it. Kind of like a rounder version of the Longsword.

i was wondering if it would ever be finished and released. Not too bad, i am glad you finished it. at least it's something different from the longsword.

oh no noob idea alert. A map "longswords vs stingrays" lol watch someone actually make that now. btw horriable idea for a map.

Oh, great you gave them the idea! Anyways it wouldn't have even been completed if I never asked him about it and fixed the bug that was casuing problems.

I like the silver shaders, makes it look more sleek.

Looks more like it's covenant than human with the glow and round shapes... It should probably have been designated as part of the longsword series however(such as the Shortsword)

In my new map, there are four stingrays and two longswords.

map or a mod? (Box maps don't count in map category btw^_o)

Map :D A simplistic one at that, but hey, I just started mapping.

The cinematic would be weird, possibly not even working.

I like the vehicle.

Updated first post with Halomaps download link.

You know, believe it or not, I thought up a similar concept quite a while back. Similar design, like a smoothed Longsword, but it was virtually a travel ship with a Slipspace engine and shielding system. It was an interesting idea, but I forgot about it.

Model is good. Shader and texture sucks.

Bumpage.

an interior would have made it perfect, but it is awesome as is.
