I've seen many threads requesting tutors, so I think we should like start a service so that newbs [note the spelling] can click on this thread, and I'll work on scheduling the hours and all that stuff. The reason I was having problems tutoring before was because so many people came up to me all at once, and I just lost track of time.

So if you're interested, post here in this format:

FoxtrotZero - Balancing (Making things even, such as no team having an advantage)

Maybe not official, but i can and will (proudly) step up the plate if anyone needs it.

I might become a student, more likely. But not yet.

I only got into halo modding last summer, so I'm still sort of a newb, however, I have intermediate skills in most essential areas. I'd be willing to teach people how to extract and use bsps, model (as best i can), etc. if someone teaches me about portals, fogplanes, lights, scripting and or and AI.

I'll learn it all eventually on my onw, or I could learn it in 1/100 the time with your help.

P.S. This is a great idea! A modding tutoring program is awesome! Keep up the good work!

I want to mention something about balance.

If you are going to make a map like coldsnap and not give each team the same amount of the same vehicles (or weapons), you might have some problems. That is the opposite of balance.

Having a lot of tutors and little students is good... Less work for us...

I'll show people how to get them started animating.
Xfire needed, along with teamviewer, and 3ds Max 8.

^

Fp animating, please be more specific

Also when ESG Slayer says "Reticle Creation and Injection" it sounds like he mods Halo PC, and uses HMT. Halo CE Reticles do not require injecting

Sorry Advancebo. I don't mod Halo PC. I guess that when I said "reticle injection", I was referring to sticking custom reticles in game, so I suppose I could help create custom reticles and "get them to work in game".

I'm in

Tutoring options:


  • Sapian

  • Tagging Weapons *No First person animation

  • Compiling Sounds

  • AI (Includes placing, editing weapons, bitmaps, and movment)


Do note that I use only 3ds Max 8. I can teach you in 3ds max 7. And if I am going to show you you need the latest Teamviewer. I can tutor once I get my pc back. My dad broke it and he won't pay for repairs.
