Encounters for planet_flood_b

Looks like you have no idea what you are doing.

Cool people have no avatars

Looks more Bungie'd if you ask me (because of the reach style)

Stay on topic and ignore the trolls. Thank you.

Halo ce engine can't handle 128,00000 triangles at the same time... better light, animations and shaders... but overall Unity dont have ai integrated.

Im testing my max (without lag) unity triangle count... and comparing it to halo ce.

You already know what the result will be. Unless you are thinking of leaving and hopping on to unity in which case I wish you luck and hope you never come back. (in the nicest way possible)

You, I like you

That makes 2 ppl since 19k94.

Unity can't handle Halo.

clearly lumoris e3 with all those trees.

Trees are pretty great. But needs more flowers.

2umoris e4*

3umoris e7**

I'm the other one

Looks like you're working on something great storm, any thoughts of when you can release it?

Release date: When it's done

Good answer.
Bit of feedback, at the moment your landscape looks a bit open and gameplay relatively flat.
I'd suggest working more on your scenery placement, and perhaps try to build in some verticality. The latter could for example be done quite easily, by implementing a small basic forerunner structure.

As for AI, right now yours seems to be rather spread out across the landscape. There isn't really much of a tactical formation visible amongst them.

Personally I've always preferred grouping them into "logical battle groups", and then stationing them around logical defensive positions. Mostly near cover, eg clusters of rocks, structures, trees. An example of a standard battle group I often liked to use is the standard 1-2 Elites + 4-5 Grunts. Another good example is just a simple squad of 4 jackals, usually I'd have 3 minors and 1 major. So yeah, it helps to think of your enemy AI as strike forces that a real army would deploy.

Oh sweet. Now I have squidward, patrik and mr krabs!

My 22nd spongebob themed sacrifice ritual is going to be a blast!

Nice work man. But before posting screenshots, try populating your environement with scenery tags and maybe adding a beam to your structure. At the moment the environment looks bland and un-interesting. Brilliant work on the structure however. Truly incredible work.

Why...... he is posting to show his structure... not his map.

Sorry, this doesn't look well thought out at all. The map is very bland, and your lighting (or rather lack of) makes most of it an eyesore. You should also avoid lots of these flat plains with very little cover. Not only is it hard to manage your spawns, but gameplay wise it will play blandly and be uninteresting. Your single beam makes no sense, unless that is going to be your main illumination for that room. Good idea putting in a sniper marine though, seems like keeping him safe is the only way to clear out that encounter without a pistol or sniper of your own.

Your edges are too hard. I know it sounds silly but the interpolation between the smooth curved areas and the harsh jagged angles throws me off. But it's a menial thing and I understand memory wise as to why you wouldn't feel obliged to do much of it.

Decent unwrapping as far as I can see.

I wonder if Pope will make more tutorials like he promised. :/

What's funny is that's either a trace over or a rip from one of the 3 towers from the Halo 3 level The Covenant.



I remember integrating it in one of my BSPs a while ago.

And here is our report:

It is pretty darn obvious that he did not model it. Look at the quality of the BSP surrounding it. Why the big difference in quality? We conclude that it must be ripped or extracted from somewhere.





Unless it wasn't. Which I doubt.

Yeah, i didnt model it, i just rip it and port it since i thought i could be a interest mp map. It also includes the structure thing apeared on "the Ark" while you fight against the scarab.

I can make decent cliffs, but those structures are two dam highpoly, and portalling drives my crazy...

Well to be fair he never actually stated he made them.

Just trying not to be biased is all.

I was going to mention that, actually. I forgot (shame on me)

That's not to say it's wrong to use the tower. So long as the rest of the BSP matches the tower quality.

By the skin of your teeth emmanuel.

By the skin of your teeth.

I need to add more detail to the bsp, but i dont have time...

(cliffs and ground dont have uv maps)
