Posted: Apr 2, 2010 02:20 AM Msg. 4 of 112 even though, all i see is just CMT tags put into a map, this actually looks enjoyable. :) though the only thing i think u should fix is those c_storage_large scenery pieces. I understand how they're supposed to imitate the effect of being hit by the lifepod, but the one on the right is merging through the BSP. Fix that. ;)

Well, it's certainly better if you had a group of 3 or so seperate containers instead of 1 row, as the crash would be more realistic. Or you can just remove them. I mean, in Halo 2 the first level, Cairo Station, just before the first group of covenant, there's a blast door. After a few seconds after seeing it, a spark appears in the middle and gets somewhat larger, then the whole door explodes, revealing the Covenant and killing anyone standing near it on your side. Though first-timers may suffer a death here (the explosion is pretty strong, fortunately no marines stand at the doors), most players know better than stand in the way. Same here, most players should know better than trying to "catch" a lifepod that is about 20 times your size. Yes I know but the lifepod you say, caught them without them knowing and also I do plan on making them more out since the download above has them in singles cause the 3 rows took up tag space, also a few people asked and here is what the ghost encounter script looks like Quote: (script dormant mission_lz_ghost (object_create ghost_1) (object_create ghost_2) (ai_place ghost_wave/ghost_1 ) (ai_place ghost_wave/ghost_2 ) (unit_set_enterable_by_player ghost_1 false ) (vehicle_load_magic ghost_1 "driver" (ai_actors ghost_wave/ghost_1 )) (object_teleport ghost_1 ghost_tele_flag_1 ) (unit_set_enterable_by_player ghost_2 false ) (vehicle_load_magic ghost_2 "driver" (ai_actors ghost_wave/ghost_2 )) (object_teleport ghost_2 ghost_tele_flag_2 ) (ai_magically_see_players ghost_wave ) (ai_vehicle_encounter ghost_2 ghost_wave/ghost_2 ) (ai_vehicle_encounter ghost_1 ghost_wave/ghost_1 ) (ai_follow_target_players ghost_wave/ghost_1 ) (ai_follow_target_players ghost_wave/ghost_2 ) (ai_vehicle_enterable_distance ghost_1 25 ) (ai_vehicle_enterable_distance ghost_2 15 ) (ai_command_list ghost_wave/ghost_1 ghost_wave_1 ) (ai_command_list ghost_wave/ghost_2 ghost_wave_2 ) (objects_predict (ai_actors ghost_wave ))(objects_predict ghost_1 )) (script dormant mission_lz_dropship (object_create lz_cship ) (unit_close lz_cship ) (ai_place lz_search/cship_toon ) (ai_braindead lz_search true ) (vehicle_load_magic lz_cship "passenger" (ai_actors lz_search/cship_toon )) (object_teleport lz_cship lz_cship_flag ) (recording_play_and_hover lz_cship lz_cship_enter ) (objects_predict lz_cship ) (sleep (max 0 (- (recording_time lz_cship )750 ))) (ai_conversation lz_cship_enter ) (sleep_until (< 4 (ai_conversation_status lz_cship_enter ))1 ) (sleep (recording_time lz_cship )) (if (volume_test_objects lz_bridge (players )) (begin (ai_conversation lz_cship_danger ))(if (volume_test_objects lz_landing (players )) (begin (ai_conversation lz_cship_danger ))(if true (begin (ai_conversation lz_cship_safe )) ))) (set play_music_a30_01_alt true ) (vehicle_hover lz_cship false ) (recording_play_and_hover lz_cship lz_cship_landing_drop ) (sleep (max 0 (- (recording_time lz_cship )60 ))) (unit_open lz_cship ) (sleep 60 ) (begin_random (begin (vehicle_unload lz_cship "cd-passengerl01" )(sleep 5 )) (begin (vehicle_unload lz_cship "cd-passengerl02" )(sleep 5 )) (begin (vehicle_unload lz_cship "cd-passengerl03" )(sleep 5 )) (begin (vehicle_unload lz_cship "cd-passengerl04" )(sleep 5 )) (begin (vehicle_unload lz_cship "cd-passengerr01" )(sleep 5 )) (begin (vehicle_unload lz_cship "cd-passengerr02" )(sleep 5 )) (begin (vehicle_unload lz_cship "cd-passengerr03" )(sleep 5 ))(begin (vehicle_unload lz_cship "cd-passengerr04" )(sleep 5 ))) (ai_braindead lz_search false ) (sleep 120 ) (wake mission_lz_ghost ) (vehicle_hover lz_cship false ) (recording_play_and_delete lz_cship lz_cship_landing_exit ) (sleep 30 ) (unit_close lz_cship ) (object_set_collideable lz_cship false ) (set play_music_a30_01 false ) (sleep_until (= (ai_living_count lz_search )0 )1 )(set mark_lz_dropship true )) Edited by forrestkeller1 on Apr 2, 2010 at 07:15 AM

Don't use that H3 sniper rifle... It's the cruddy one. Here, use the one i uploaded, it comes with my muzzle flash effect, and better shaders (the scope seems to move with a cubemap.) http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=5179 I think the images were messed up during the upload, i assure you the sniper rifle is fine.

ODX Joined: Jul 26, 2007 A rare sight, indeed.	Posted: Apr 2, 2010 04:06 PM Msg. 17 of 112 I don't exactly think he's put much work into it yet, as things of course do not fit well and it's not really fair to judge. Grass is a bit bland after a while, Forerunner structures with their basic textures and the likes don't go so nicely together with the grass, and overall there could just be more detail but I keep in mind that it's still a level in a 2001 game. The theme itself though, I like in it's general idea. I've always felt Halo needed a level with rain that wasn't flood-infested, and putting it in an iconic level (first time you land on Halo, first level you are introduced to the Forerunner structures and Bungie's huge, lovely environments) is genius. Edit: L0d3x, I know you would probably have a more expert opinion of this than me, so if you could please detail specific things you don't like and why it shouldn't be this theme I would greatly appreciate it. My eyes and hands deal with weapons, not levels, so I really don't have much experience and knowledge on the subject. Edited by ODX on Apr 2, 2010 at 04:09 PM

(the one you released on hcer) is he the one who made that cmt spv2- ish fan made campaign, if so I hope there are more brutes and brgs in this map than the last ones, also could you add geists? I've wanted to see how they effect single player combat when theyre mixed in with other covies, also can you use the h3 grunts plox? Edited by Delicon20 on Apr 2, 2010 at 06:55 PM

forrestkeller1 Joined: Nov 3, 2007 What? Why am I still here?	Posted: Apr 2, 2010 07:54 PM Msg. 22 of 112 That is why I said pre-beta version for a reason this has many stuff I havn't planed yet, lots of errors and many many other stuff I plan to add in the future, and the grass texture is cmt's that replaces the original in the shader as a detail map, ad plus I wasn't aiming for a SPV2 look I really wanted to make it look different from the original make it more how you say jungle like. this project may end up like all my others, I'll probably abandon it cause I usually never have enough tags or I am unable to satisfy the general public with it because of my inability to animate,model and texture stuff. There is so much one person can do people Edited by forrestkeller1 on Apr 2, 2010 at 08:09 PM

No the encounters are spawned by what actor types they are in the squad so to spawn brutes I need to make a new one with the actor type set to the brute actor variant

I don't know how my copies seem to have gotten around, I never officially released them, only gave them to like one or two people and bam!, it's everywhere next I know. This is the magnum right now: Spartan_094 is supposedly getting me the retail one+skin right now because this one is 'bad' (which it probably is). All I have left to do is a grenade, and then attempt to compile them, but I'm not sure because CE isn't working (I need a driver update but I can't find one for my old old old old old graphics card that has a working download link) and HEK is being weird and I can't get Tool to work. Typing in 'cd [etc etc etc]' isn't changing my directory so I can't compile right now. Edited by ODX on Apr 2, 2010 at 10:35 PM
