Edit:

I have uploaded the campaign to Halomaps. I was getting bored with it, so I decided to cut e60 a little short. I'm lazy, I know.

I actually left e60 open so that someone can create a followup map. Right before it goes to the ranking, it has a command telling it to launch a currently nonexistant map. Contact me if you would like to know what map name to use if you want to continue the story.

Also, if anyone wants to make the branch where you stay on Sciophobia, I left that open. The idea is that you could make a map where you explore the planet seen in the background, find a drifting and deserted ship, or whatever. E40 is the only branch that cannot be added onto.

Additionally, I will do my best to answer any technical questions asked before July 1st.

Does anyone know how I would put this (or other maps) on 360?

there's 4 singleplayer maps in the zip.

e10
e20
e30 (can't extract, it's corrupt so says winrar)
e40

I'll try the campaign out and post feedback with screenshots shortly. :P

Here's screenshots:

I'll re-upload the maps without zipping. For some reason that sometimes messes them up.

So, it's the RPG campaign, but updated, right?

I love these maps.

Yes, I've done extensive modications to e10 and e40, slight modifications to e20, and added e30. All I need now is the fighting on Earth branch, the credits, and difficulty selection.

Looks interesting; will download.

well maybe you should play to find out now shouldnt you?

I'm going to re download, but what I've seen from the others was good enough for me!


Noob, i'd enjoy working with you on some SP stuff in the near future.

Update:

I added e50 today. It's a little short, but I'm kind of burned out. I'll take my time with e60.

I'm stuck on completing the final level until I know how to alter ai walking speed, so any help would be appreciated.

a note about e40:
so there was this part where the player fell into the water, then got up again and is supposed to drive the scorp.
i found that its had some sort of double speed effect to it. Is it supposed to be like that?
its quite unnatural, otherwise my comp's laggy.

He used game_speed, which slows down the game.

are these SP maps? and does custom UI work?

Yes, they are SP maps. The UI is something I need help making, not a current feature. It doesn't have to be anything extravagent, just a noob-friendly way to launch the campaign.

I don't know if any of these work but(last one works I am pretty sure):
-Make them alert and then walk
-Make them crouch and walk forward (I think this works,they don't crouch down,they just walk forward,not really sure,havent played marine maps in a long time)
-Recorded animations from A10

Try these if you want.

I guess I should explain what I'm trying to do. I want brutes, a jackal, and a grunt to walk patrol routes for a stealth based level. Instead, they always run their routes, which kills the gameplay and effect. I tried the crouching fix, but the brutes still ran when I set them to crouch.

Fix: Don't use command lists. Set the AI's initial state to moving and their return state to guarding at guard position. Then place move positions and firing positions.

Edit:

That kind of works. Half the time the ai don't move. I've tried spamming firing points along their paths, but that doesn't work. Any idea what would cause that?
Edited by Noobyourmom on Jun 7, 2010 at 11:21 PM

Firing positions are where they go AFTER they're alerted. Before they're alerted, they should be moving randomly among the move positions.

I got one of them working, and the AI fits in with the level and acts smart. Seems like its just trial and error trying to get them to walk.

awesome campaign man!

Any new progress?

Yes, it's basicly finished. E60 is a little shorter than E40 since my life is starting to get really busy, but it's still good. It uses stealth gameplay. I should have the release uploaded by the next time Dennis playtests, I hope.

Edit:

I ran into a problem in e40 that if you shoot the officer on legendary, he doesn't take damage, but I've thought up a solution/legendary easter egg...

Is it just me or did E50 thake only like half a minet to walk to the pelican and fade to black?

You can kill the Covenant and it takes longer, but admittedly it was a crappy level.

what happens in E50 again?

That's the one where you are captured by the Covenant. It's probably the worst map, but there is one cool part where you can fight a sword elite with a combat knife.

Btw, I've completed the campaign.

Help please. "Z" doesnt work !
I have played the maps, and i have to say.............THIS CAMPAING ROCKS, BEST SINGLE PLAYER CAMPAING EVER.....but...

I have a problem, i can't choose the second opition, the "Z" line, it doesnt work. I press the "Z", but it doesnt work. Do you known how to fix? I really wanna fight that elite with a knive.

The map creator most likely chose Z because it's the default key for zooming in. You probably repadded your controls to something else. Hit whatever button that causes you to zoom in. The default key is the z key, and the middle mouse button does the same.

That was a realy cool campagin, though I must admit, the cariter develepment wasent that great, you shouldent get hangup over the death of your squad.

Also, what did I do to get in the credits, I forgot.

lol i love how exploitable this campaign is:

Thanks man ! Good thinking, i use the middle mouse bottom to zoom. It works just perfect. Thank you very much.

I usually don't use this word, but i gotta, say, this has been AWESOME! :D loved it so far.
However, I'm stuck on E30! After bashing one of the leaders and sniping the other... nothing happens! I've scoured the map [found some dr. pepper cans woo] but... nothing else to kill or do...

You need to go to the third spot, follow the nav point, and then an cutscene activates.
