I am =O

did you read the first page? everything halted till i get the tagset done =O lulz, well it's almost done, just need to do a few models and bitmaps, need a week to finalize it

By overtime, I mean opening Sapien, putting down AI encounters, and *gasp* compiling the map.

oshi- i can't do that D=


sumeone pl4ce teh AI plox, AND GIMME THE SCRIPT ALREADY, i thought someone was assigned to fix the ai placings, especially fix the elites in the ghost at the start, and make a correpesponding ending of the level?

oh and i'm working on the elite hud now, making a custom overlay wich is... custom... you'll see

YES I CONQUERED THE wtf was the number PAGE!!!

and why can't we start populating already? all i'm doing is replacing the stock tags with my own tags so i dont have to do anything when you give me the script and scenario file, i just have to hit compile and wait a few seconds, there is no reason to delay populating, i think

What script? Was it the one which Lone lost and told me over and over to give to you?

don't really care, if it's fixed and got stuff to beat it's good enough for a trailer, i dont dare filming shiz on this current scenario file D=

or how about some halo 2 script

Grunt #1: [the Special Ops team enters an area that shows signs of Flood infestation] Me have bad feeling about this...
Grunt #2: You *always* have bad feeling! You had bad feeling about morning food nipple!

we should use xfire to chat, but atleast the topic is bumped =3

Coincidentally, I just so happened to have that dialog. Needs to be converted though.

Would make a nice intro, when the level starts, 2 grunts walk infront of you, not facing, saying that, and you'd have to kill them

yea, that'll do for a good trailer

I'll send you the sound files over xfire. You'll have to compile them, because I'm too lazy to do that.

So how's this coming along guys? We haven't seen too many progress shots from you guys lately...

I've kinda gotten bored of sitting around, doing nothing. There's only so much fun you can have with time-wasting group chats. So, regardless of the tagset, I've decided to proceed onto the level itself. I can replace the weapons and stuff later. So here's the beginning so far.

Two Specops elites are guarding the area. Then, you hear the flood noise. One elite goes to investigate, and he sees nothing. You hear the other elite shout out. The first elite goes back, and finds an flood infected elite.

Should I have the player take control at this point, with millions of flood infections pouring in to help, or should I have the other elite die in the cutscene?

I think when the eilte find the flood combat form and the ton of infection forms the cutsence ends with the other eilte getting swarmed and infected and have him as an ally.

Have the player take control >:D

What?, you mean like infect?

i believe he means fighting the elite or being able to run around when the other elite sees the infected one

I mean like this:

Do me a favor, staple a reminder to get off my arse and work on my forehead today.

Also, I figure, elite dies in the cutscene.

E1:

Because, Myth still has to finish the stuff he's doing, and so does Newbkilla.


E2: Someone also needs to do anims.

:L

What stuff? BP Still has to finish texturing my map atm, and remember it's not done, so why are we even texturing it? It also needs portals, and I can't do portals, I suck at them, I followed the tut in the hek guide, but it fails considerably.

/end rant

I'm positive it's models and particles.

Animations for what?

I think just animations in general for the mod.

for example driving a vehicle you'll need anims like h2

still it's not a genuine reason, you can put placeholder anims to let them drive anyways untill we got fitting ones.

i'm going to say this again, i am going to need levels, regardless of stuff not textured or having to use stock models

why? well, how about we get some facts:

- I ported most of halo 2 over to halo 1 (tagset)

- We're using stock bsp's

- The only bsp worked on so far is just a half assed ai placing without decent ending (no offense lone) wich is just not done

- the rest thinks that without a replacement tagset wich just replaces stock tags they cannot work on the overal levels anymore

i'm glad that for once somebody noted it (lw) but i'm still not happy with this "teamwork".
for example, CMT is not being delayed because their tagset isn't done, they make stuff, and replace it later without any problems. why should this be any different?

/rant
it's just that i'm not convinced about this "work" as i'm the only one posting screenshots here, and guess what, i just got my last exam last friday so my holidays JUST started, imagine what i could do during holidays - and the fact most of you there already had them for awhile.

i'm not mad, but i DO have to point this out, as the motivation is far from good, on my part.

If you need ANY voice acting you know who to get. =) Which is none other than meh.

Send me examples and I'll consider compiling them

I hope you realise this is one of the rare cases age DOES matter.

Answers in bold.

Good thing population will resume

On a sidenote, the tagset is only being replaced so far, if it involved new gameplay elements i'd said so, but so far there is none and none needed that will change the tagset in such a way gameplay will suffer and population sabotaged, unless i'm mistaken.

Theres a few things.

Update: Well I haven't done one of these in a while.

Well, I suppose a re-structure of the first post is in order, I'll try and include all the pictures posted from the, what is it, 54 pages we have?

But yeah, the re-structure will hopefully cover the stuff we've done, and hopefully will do. Theres still quite a few things we're keeping under wraps until the mod is released.

E1: Updated first post.

Lone, how are we doing over in this project?

Wow that first marine flood picture is great, i want to be THAT in a level XD

Wut, when did I made this? I'm gonna reinstall my windows so I was porting over my files, looky wut I found

you should add it as an easter egg in the campaign (:

I always wondered what the materials were used by the flood to make the claws.... Is it elite bones? I don't know if its just my monitor but are the claws shaped out from raw bone marrow from the elite host?

Make red a bit darker first

Good old Halo Wars.

whats that got to do with the flood campaign?

That pic is of one of the cinematics of the HaloWars campaign.
