The only actual weapon I animated for real for Grunt was the Assault Rifle, which you've seen the reload for already.

egh, I've been real sick lately so I haven't been tagging very much. Needler, plasma weapons, warthog turrets, and a hammer and sword need to be tagged.

How's everything else been going, weapon models, etc?

Ill tag the warthog turret.
Have you gotten the elephant tagged? Ill tag it if you cant. Also we need someone to unwrap and texture Hunters elephant model if it hasnt been done yet.

Nah I'm not much of a vehicle tagger, all I've done to the warthogs is add a gauss hog and increase their gravity 1.5 times.

If you need information on the damage of the hog minigun turret, it takes 5 shots to take out the shields, 3 shots to kill after shields.

Should be 10 total, really.

Also whats the point of increasing gravity? Wont it be easier to just make it a little slower. Unless you other things planned.

I guess I can get started on tagging the elephant this weekend.

Is the elephant going to be a device_machine?

Is there fall damage in this version? I don't recall any maps in HCE that don't have fall damage.

Coldsnap, Hugeass, just to name a couple.

You have around a month and 10 days left to wait.

You've only been waiting for this since January. Others have been waiting for this since last October :\

Thats not so long. But with my French class it makes it seem forever. (I hate foreign languages class)

Are you serious? YES!!! finally we'll get a good halo 3 map in halo ce!!

^couldnt agree more :)

I modeled the BSP and I've been waiting forever just cause I was too lazy to do this myself hahaha Thanks Grunt!

what's the current progress? apart from the hud you're setting up, quite quiet on what you're doing

I've asked caboose for the remaining hud element reference, i'm currently making all h3 gametype icons, they'll appear with the correct gametype with appropriate bars, but i can't make them fill, except if you want to keep pressing F1 all the time then replacing the score board with bitmaps instead of numbers, ofcourse thus possible but way too complicated for such a minor thing, so don't count on the bars filling, but i hope to have the gametype icons done soon

I believe Advance might be making new HUD.

hes working on ammo meter and fixing some of his bitmaps.

Dont forget my reticles >:V
Which I am actually done drawing and too lazy to compile 25+ reticles.

Haha yeah. It's been, what, nearly a year since I modeled the ring? I remember giving it to you, I remember giving it to you so you could use it, then passing it off to Grunt shortly after. Man time flies.

that means i don't have to give anything else? that's good news lol, i'm a bit busy to finish the weapon meters, and i didn't really work on the reticles at all, forgot about that =3

by 'fixing' my bitmaps, you mean what? alpha? or did you just pass my map to him?

He passed Sandtrap to me, he ripped it from your map, but there are still fux ups here and there. So he gave me a Sandtrap build to fix so that he can compile without errors.

prolly also a good idea to post that here so everyone knows what's going on, it's going to be opensource anyways, so the more people working on it the better

oh and, i fixed the halo 3 flag and made the h3 flag texture, maybe i should send that too,...

now i think of it, you have errors but you can compile? then it probably is bitmap errors, if you've set up my hud completely you get warnings when you compile it, i used empty bitmaps to remove the h1 gametype icons and use them as placeholder untill i have all the correct h3 gametype bitmaps, so you shouldn't meddle with that since they're placeholders for the new bitmaps, if you fill that space then i can't use it to let it sync with the gametypes obviously, leave them be for now

if there are any other fux ups, then i don't know about it and it can't be because of my tags, then you either didn't rip correctly it or you're renaming stuff wich you shouldn't, it's set up in a certain way and should only be ripped to apply the unit hud interface to the biped and the weapon interfaces for the weapons, for the rest you have to wait till i'm done with the rest of the hud.
I've finished all weapon meters now, even the gravhammer would you include it, and i'm halfway with the crosshairs (ok not me... chris makes them)

also, i'm almost done with the hayabusa armor, just have to unwrap the chest and shoulders.
if you want to, you can have the new version of the random spawning halo 3 armor, it includes: EVA, CQB, EOD (yes textured correctly) Hayabusa, Mark 6, Recon

Hes having problems with the grenades showing up, it uses the old grenade interface. And I told him I would make new bitmaps anyways.

It's kind of pointless having the spike and firebomb grenades in the HUD.

agreed, especially if there isn't going to be spike and firebomb grenades ( which there isn't)

Yes corn, good old times.

actually I wanted to organize you files under tags\halo3\ui instead of all that bp bullcrap

Too much advertising rofl.

Also, there were some minor things, such as no flashing red when the shield was down, the flood overlay never faded, etc etc.

so whats the status of the map now?

*just trying to keep this thread up
Edited by Slayer117 on Apr 18, 2009 at 11:49 PM

If Grunt has anything to show, he's capable of bumping his own thread and showing it. If I had anything to show, I too, am capable of bumping the thread as well.

Its all up to advancebo right now. hes working on the HUD.

I dont like to be depended on :V

if anyone is interested, i am making the little beacons around the edge that show where the minefield starts
-now about to start tagging it
-modeling / UVW done yesterday

i thought there was going to be an invisible wall?
