Well i looked at Zteams sanctuary and thought "hey this is a good h2 map" but it could be slightly better if they edited this or that. So the point of this mod besides changing the weapons

And HDoans donation.

And to give people an option an alternate Elite HUD even though i WILL use the spartan biped, unless someone can get me some good elite first person arms (not arbiter, sorry BP).

Deleted IMG tags

If we choose to use the Elite HUD i will re-do the motion sensor :\

I support this project and will make you some Elite FP Arms right now,

under 1 condition: make it open source, we all know it's ripped, we also know it can be ripped from halo 2, we also know it's old, we also know zteams doesnt give a shiz about it anymore.

The more reason to make it opensource, noone is here to claim it or is in the position anyways.
You have nothing to lose either, it's all H2 stuff.

I vote for open source unless there are some good arguments, which i already disagree with =3

Oh and, I still think a sword that does not lunge but kills in 1 hit is a gameplay improvement.

Also, use the h2 gametype meters, we know you got em =P
All you have to do is edit the icons to be names and position em above them.

yeah. as far as the "secret weapons" what do you mean? like that beam rifle SC? no nuke launchers XD one idea for a secret weapon might be is the same sword, but lunging ability. did u fix the red base wall thing? it ruined oddball gameplay. i support the idea, but cant do any programming/scripting/modeling for my life (language filter XD). I am a good beta tester if you do plan to include beta testing...

As a secret weapon i won't add something like nukes because well if blue team gets nukes in a server where teamkills are off well that's just..bad for red team :x

I may add a trigger point to the end of the\a waterfall that spawns you a random weapon if possible. If not i will make it spawn a weapon such as a beam rifle or something.

Add some more secrets/eastereggs in the map. There NEEDS to be an elite version of this. I hate playing as the spartans. lol For the FP arms. You could just rip from Halo 2. Easy map right there. Also, I think you need to fix the errors that are in the map. When I walk I can see the ground all messed up. Which is retarded by the way. That NEEDS to be fixed.

1-I am a big fan of mods and small maps so i support this
2- The major problem i had with the orgional gampelya was the wall in red or blue base that you can get stuck in if you hop out of the warthog and grab the flag at high speeds
3- Sorry for all of you who like the plasma sword but... I hate it like no other-- it has crappy nanimations and attack range to boot and is completely unbalanced due to its location and the size of the map
4- Secret weapons... well you could always place in the Golden Needler with a secret grav-lift to it (by secret i mean secret like the hidden one in one of the new memosa remakes)
5- Gameplay issues... once you have the flag... theres nowhere to go... needs a new escape route (wall behind flag with no collision geometry hint hint)

You may want to incorperate hillsides into gameplay... last time there were easter eggs up there along with some badly misplaced weapons...(secret room maybe?)
6- grav-lifts... i love them... maybe set a few around the center area where sword spawns? (lol bording party!)

Yes gravlifts, but you forget that this map is a single floored map mainly, those hills were never fully modelled and will look ugly since it's not meant for it.

And we cannot add blind walls since you have to edit the BSP for that, way too major to change


I liked the idea of the wall though

I may not add the sword. it's not good for CE. I might add an alternative, like flamethrower with less range or something.

I might make two versions of this one that you play as an elite, and one where you play as a spartan.
Edited by jesse on Jul 30, 2009 at 12:27 AM

that r teh 1337 idea.

Ugh, what the hell. This just looks like you took Zteam's Sanctuary (ala, Halo 2 Sanctuary), and shoved in Hayabusa's crap CAD copy animations(Not Halo 2), so I really don't see much that's new in the map.

There's virtually nothing that needed to be changed from the original aside from fixing some portals and giving all the weapons a posing animation just to say it's fully complete. Other than that though, I don't see why you need to do this.

Nah, just make it so you play as an elite. Don't make different versions of it. ONly make one version. Which the player model will be an elite.

The republican :D
(if you read my entire post you will see what i'm referring to).


Anyway Yes i did add Hayabusa's "crap". reason for that is Those cad copy animations are better than the original, though not very much, but still.. they are.

I didn't like the fact that when you grenade jumped you had to die and respawn before you could attempt it again. In this one i will lower the grenades damage effect to 75 so it removes your entire shields but not one value of your health.
Edited by jesse on Jul 30, 2009 at 01:02 AM

I'll let you go if you make the player an Elite, that way it'll actually be different in more than just animations from the original Z_Sanctuary. If you do so, I'll throw in a pair of Elite arms I have lying around.

Noooooo, they are not better than the original, you are poorly mistaken and therefore I will not respect your opinion good day, sir.

Take out the sword, and replace it with the brute shot. Some of us need to whore heavies, and it's hard to do it if there aren't any heavies :[

Cool stuff Jesse.

awww no nukez?

Because it discourages people from sitting atop the map. Give them more than one chance and there'll never be an actual game on this map.

Sanctuary is from Halo 2 :\

fail post is fail

Would you seriously just go away as I argue my point across that this map is completely unnecessary unless he changes it to be Elites and gives it better animations?

Re-do coag mb plox.

NO.

fck no. just no. sick of them. same as bloodgulch mods



And just say if you give it or not, i'm rigging them at this moment for him now =/
Edited by BeachParty clan on Jul 30, 2009 at 01:13 AM

Brute shot is a weak POS in Halo 2. Honestly it was only good if you also had a BR to finish the job.

I'd say replace it with rocks. The sword's a close-range one-hit-kill power weapon, and so are rocks.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
pure win post. epic lolz

By rocks I mean rockets if you didn't catch that ;D

THIS!!! R Y

Rofl,the hand is eating the gun :O


You should remove the slayer icon on the top,its looks ugly near the ammo meter,or even make it a rectangle.

Edit:And i agree with onotuxe
Edited by MegaSquirrel on Jul 30, 2009 at 01:18 AM

If ODX would be kind enough to re-do the battle rifle animations, or at least finger placement for the left hand because the animations themselves such as reload and stuff, are ok. If he were to do this for about 3 weapons i will make the elite version as i already have the hud, biped, and fp arms (soon to come maybe).
Edited by jesse on Jul 30, 2009 at 01:24 AM

I'm busy editting Sandtrap animations, but maybe later I could attempt some Battle Rifle animations with the Elite rig for fun and, if they turn out well, put them in this map.

Or why dont you do commit some actual work and get an actual rigged elite fp arms, and reanimate every weapon for the elite fp arms.

@Jesse
Edited by Advancebo on Jul 30, 2009 at 01:26 AM

In short: He wants ODX to basically gtfo and for me to add Halo 3 weapons.

Don't add the Halo 3 weapons. This is a Halo 2 remake for crying out loud. SCREW HALO 3!!!!

EDIT- WOOT!!! Conquered the second page!!!!!!

I wasn't referring to you and your stupid ideas, I was referring to you and your obnoxious posts that were just trolling and making me fall asleep on the damn keyboard.

I've actually been working on tagging and getting the weapons to work right. sure they're rips but that's exactly what they are.. rips. I had to re-tag most of them, make most of my own particles. re-make the Halo 2 hud into an Elite hud. I may not be a super expert pro, but I do try.
It's just too bad i suck ass with 3dsmax. i've lost significant sleep over this very mod. I sleep at 3:00 AM to wake up at 8:00 AM to go for a run up a huge hill, plus i have chores, i have..well... pretty much what a normal Teen has :\ I shall now go to sleep, so keep up the posting guys and don't spam or fight.
WUTTERFREAKING MELON!!!! :D Cleveland Zteamer. I love hidden text :P
