Hey wasn't someone working on a gametype so we could play Griffball in CE? i thought they had it almost done. they were making a foundry map for it. or did it fail?

I think it fail a long time ago..

so is anyone gonna try a crack at it?

I tried a while ago, by basically looking at inferno's single bomb scripts, and adding in the part where you turn orange. I lost it when my computer crashed, and I'm not willing to do the setup for the syncing again D:

heck if you have somthing i could help you

I HAD it. Too lazy to dig it back up. Although if you make a Foundry map, I might reconsider.

alright!

He didn't fail, it's just been taking a while because of the work he (_TheArbiter_) still needs done. The sword needs to be newly animated, and the bomb maybe, and he only just got some 3p animations done. Forget who did them, but he's not dead.

Is that why Sigma needed a 3rd person animator for? I know Sigma is not dead as much as not very public nowadays.

well this would be nice.

Yes, the hammer needed 3p animations.

Do we really need foundry cause i could just make a griffball arena w/ the griffball logo in the middle it would be epic!

and i was thinking maybe putting a camera man tower so you could record the game.

yea that would be better and easier lol

No, no foundry, go buy halo3 if you want foundry.

Since this is HaloCE the first court (and as stated on old sigma threads) will be on Installation 02 inside a forerunner structure

still an easy arena thing right?

Its kinda more complex actually.

I was watching the Bungie vidocs and I noted that they said that one of the things that make the player get inmersed into the game and to say "omg" is the scale. So I decided to make it somewhat like epitaph from halo3.

You play on the court, wich is foundry-court sized but if you look around you will see its pretty big.

ok. so not too easy huh lol. epitaph was a good choice.

It doesnt look like epitaph, i just took the fact that it has a high cieling ( i think i for got to addthat in the previous post)

yea u did. i kinda got the idea that u wer doing it outside on the catwalk things and they wer widend for grifball

Nope, it will be completly indoor

I will set it so only 8 players can join (prevents further lag and follows the original grifball rules (4vs4) ) the server host can change it via console anyway.

Also in the zip that will be updated to the site i will include the custom gametype and how to install it or how to make it by yourself.

This is all made by raw tag power and script

Open Sauce was NOT used in the making of this :)

Thats cause your good like that.

What about just making the Sandbox Grifball on the bottom level of the map?

Thats boring. Its just a box with an extrude.

Yes, Also for the reason I said before..

Want Foundry Grifball?
Want Zanzibar Beach Grifball (yes, it does exist)?
Want Sandbox Grifball?


Go buy Halo3 :D


Its better to experience Grifball in places that nobody on Halo3 will ever get to play on, since it wont be just a forged space, but an entire map made just for Grifball.

yea exclusiveness lol

I didn't say anyone failed. Never-or-less, it will be made.

So yeah lets not make a halo 3 map and have griffball in it. lets just make a court thats the same size as the sandbox court.

It wouldn't be that hard. a flat map w/ two ogals at the end. add gravity hammers and energy swords. place a bomb in the center.

and of course have the griffball logo in the center of the court.





Only problem is idk how big a griffball court is

ew MLG colors.

Did you even read what I said? ._. Its already made :D (no GB logo tho...ill put it somewhere else)

We were thinking on making a street themed grifball court after this forerunner one. It will be similar to turf from halo2 (with shops around and buildings). maybe the court could be drawn with chalk to give it a more urban style.

make the GB logo a decal so u can just but it in. or scenery wich ever's easier

Personally the Hammer seems impossible to pull off in MP so as the sword. The weapons for griffball might as well be the Shotty snipers.

no that would suck just melee weapons would do fine

Both are possiable in CE.

well if we had the sword from zteam then yea it would be possible. thrs had a good enough lunge right?

Yes, it does lunge ok, and Garvity Hammers do work in CE. And you could make your own, what's with you guys and Zteam they're not gods.
