Any tips, or guidelines? The HEK Tutorial just says that they have wierd structures. I noticed only 1 thing in common with their architecture. Their rooms tend to be very cavernous, sometimes with pillars, and very high cielings.
So basically I am asking what elements should I include to make a map more Forerunner in appearance, and what angles are the most common. Thanks |

The angles are mostly 45 degrees, with very few 90 degrees. Go ahead and study Halos archetecture, play the game, and view the structures. It's very fun to do, and it looks nice in the end, if you need inspiration go here. http://www.modacity.net/forums/showthread.php?t=9595

the most common angles are 45 and 90. This site has some tuts about it, search for em.
Also you could inspire yourself with midle age cathedrals, wich are big, with high cielings and have many windows. |

Made me lol, but
 That is the closest real life forerunner you're gonna see, but take note the 45 degree angles on it. |

The most common style of Forerunner you see people making (and is the sexiest, imo) is that from the Ark. Play the Ark in Halo 3 and study the cartographer's shape and style.

FOR SALE: Forerunner Apartments 1 bedroom, 1 bath., kitchen unit, Flood protection Alot of the stuff on The Ark had round and circular stuff, which I thought was odd for Forerunner. The structures on The Covenant are cooler and it looks like alot of ppl make them anyway. But about the Forerunner stuff, they have alot of intricate stuff and crazy details. It's kind of hard to explain. Edited by electricSquid on Feb 27, 2009 at 02:59 PM |
