Because it's better. And also if you can't run it get a better computer or don't play it. it's as simple as that.

then your going to be missing out on like +700 people who wont care becuase it wont be any good anyway and they cant even play it. simple as that.

So you are saying that I can bump my forerunner on guardian? If so.. just wow. :|

I can't tell if your being sarcastic or not.. :(

So do you have an end date you want to finish by?

One could photoshop a face-on render of a given wall, optimize the wall, and then re-map it with the new texture. Or one could figure out how to use render to texture, and learn how channels work, and do it like the pros do. Not suggesting I'm a pro, I haven't figured it out yet. But that's what render to texture is for.
The pipes might be a little excessive for an area of the map that will be in view most of the time, and there are parts that could be done way lower poly (shader_transparent) with minimal purtyloss, but otherwise it looks comparable in detail to some of Bungie's mp h1 maps.

So there's effectively no overshield, and the 3rd and first person models turn orange? Does this still depend on scripting, and is it the scripting which limits the number of players to 8, or is that just how griffball's played?
Running and jumping when with the bomb, because the server will host with the apropriate gametype? Or is there Sauce involved?

fro what i can see it looks cool i gueess(i am still a supernub so what do i know) so is grif ball like bombing run in ut2004? u grab the ball/bomb and try to get it to the goal area or something? if so itll be cool, i like that game mode in ut2004, lol.....

It's a gametype for Halo 3 made by Roosterteeth.

Nice work on the hammer Geared.



Not finished, but I should be able to fix it up. No errors, and needs a bit of work, I got it though, it wont look like this finished.

Omg, wtf. :(

that is the most inaccurate, and disgusting model I have seen in a loooong time.
please tell your modeler to read a couple of weapon modeling tuts like the bettra 9000 one.

*facepalm*

ok your asked for it

Dear kind sir,
That model is beyond repair, looks nothing like was trying to imitate, and no matter what modifications would be done to it would never look like said "gravity hammer". I recommended that you delete that model, and learn how to effectively create ones(this statement goes to you and your modeler) that don't make me want to gouge my eyes out, by using a tutorial that I had also recommend to you, but no. You are so childish that you had to resort to responding to my comment with one of the most, unoriginal, overused meme responses ever created by the internet.
-many hugs and kisses

ps. get out.

never read it too lazy

i kinda told him i wouldnt be able to do that....i never can get things liek that right(from coping iamges), now if it had never existed or soemthing liek my mpar, then maybe i coulda done it....srry guys...i fialed...:C if u need me ill me adding more parts to my mpar...:C

@killerkip
ignoring crit isnt going to get you anywhere tbh
and it figures you were going to be to lazy to read something, lazyness translates into your work to :)


Dont worry, keep at it and you'll get better. if you need any tuts or help just pm me :)
and dont do what killerkip dose, which is just ignoring the help people give you.

Okay mom,
yours is insults, not crit, I don't even want your crit, so keep it to yourself, I know it is unfinished, I SAID it was, so get off my back, and heel, your attacking an image of an unfinished model, because your not satisfied, GET OVER IT.
Edited by KillerKip1 on Mar 17, 2009 at 07:37 PM

Haha, you and floyd doing the same project. Nothing to be waiting for once you know that.

Oshi, that is funny. :)

There is no insults, you just expect everything that comes out anyone's mouth to be unicorns and rainbows, and when anybody says anything that you didn't want to hear, you either just ignore or attack said comment. ill stop writing now before it overloads your brain like last time.

Your opinion is unwanted, just leave, your not even a reliable person, so go, before you embarrass yourself by being a jerk.



Got a better image.

Whenever I zoom in close to the model, it disapears, why?

Compared to you, he is a VERY VERY VERY reliable person.

Also, you wont take his crit because of what you think he is? Oh, god, fail.

Alright, I'll go ahead and say it. You suck:

1.) Sigma is a team of considerably good EXPERIENCED CE users.
2.) They know how to model to great decency, far better than you.
3.) They already know how to do this and are 1/2-3/4 done with their Grifball.
4.) You're wasting time if you plan on making Grifball again in a more worse way.
5.) Your models are not nearly good enough to work well in CE.
6.) You have no idea how to do have of what you're saying, especially before Sigma finishes their stuff.
7.) Give me a finished work from your team in HALO CUSTOM EDITION that is a map and has scripts.
8.) I'm telling you these things because you'll be wasting useful time to do other, not-done-yet stuff.
9.) Stop talking professional because you aren't near professional.
10.) Work on your bloody smoothing.

That's all I have to say. If you say this isn't criticism, than you really are foolish.

Now, if you do something else, that's perfectly fine. But you trying to do Grifball is beyond stupid. I'm not discouraging you, but I am telling you not to make a stupid call and waste your life on a project being done far better than you ever could in while. Do more maps and stuff that we actually need more of. Y'all seem to like projects like that.

As much so as I don't approve of saying Sigma is the best and should be the only ones to do Grifball, it's pretty much true. They...well actually _TheArbiter_, is one of the best damn scripters in CE. He's made things that Zteam members have attempted but hadn't gotten as well as he did. I'm not looking down upon Zteam either, they've made things that Arby hasn't exactly been able to recreate, or probably hasn't even tried really (yes, ripping animations and all that other junk blah blah)

Seriously, stop, you're not going to finish anything, or even get something close to a respectable state. If you want to keep trying, that is your choice and I encourage you to. However, it would be best to not embarrass yourself like you have many many times before this.

I withdraw my this reply, I was in no position to say that on a forum that I do not own.

Everyone needs to stop picking fights, and I have never "picked" a fight, if I have, it was not within the last 6 months or later.

I just wanted to post up about an OPEN halo ce map that was from Halo 3, has a mode that is not very easy for most to make, and is fun for everyone, I did not know sigma was making grifball, that's the first I've heard.

I also wish NOT to hear anymore off topic or bad crit on this thread, its ruined enough, the hammer is fine, its not done, you guys ask for pics, and I post em.

No, It is not nice work. I may not be the best modeller, but I do know my stuff.
That looks like something I could have made in 10 minutes.
The smoothing is so horrible. It looks like your modeller just selected all the faces and smoothed it on ID 1. Smooth is manually next time.
The blade on the back is inaccurate, as it the front. The actual front part where you hit people with needs lots more detail. You also need more detail on the top part altogether. The bottom is too long. I tried to make this sound nice also.

Next time, get better refs. I took 5 ref pictures of the H3 Mauler before I even attempted it. Try to get picture from all angles (front back left diagonal top)
Oh, de-poly the foundry also. Most of the detail I see there can be done with bump maps. Also, don't even model the stairs area. If it's for Grifball, then you just need the open area with a wall of boxes.

Oh Jesus, don't make Floyd or I make it.. It's really not that hard to make. The bottom half is the easiest..

responses in bold.

check the second image I posted up =P

its better than nothing right?
Want a better one, be my guest, I wont use this one if nobody wants grifball.

Look Grifball is not hard to make:
Re-model and re-animate the Flag to make it a bomb
Use the Sword tags on this site. Remove the lunge if you want to.
Then just make the Gravity Hammer.
Then all that's left is the model of part of Foundry and the script, which I believe is already figured out at Modacity.
Then use the standard "Assault" gametype ALREADY MADE in Halo.
Edited by UnevenElefant5 on Mar 17, 2009 at 08:21 PM

so how is one team supposed to pick up there own flag? or when someone picks up the flag to change color and gain overshield?

why not just use assault?
lol, good to see someone figuerd it out, we are doing a bit more.
I am done here for a while, night guys.

Put the red flag on the blue side. the blue flag on the red side.
Oh, about the overshield thing.
I think those options are built into Halo. If not, I have been looking at that topic on Modacity. I think some people have figured it out.
Edited by UnevenElefant5 on Mar 17, 2009 at 08:25 PM

you don't understand how grifball works, there is one bomb in the center someone from any team picks up the bomb, and is able to score on the opposing team.

-_-
I need to play Halo 3 more often. I am forgetting obvious things.
