If you actually want to suggest new ways to make the level itself stand out in terms of gameplay and design, then we would gladly review them. Edited by Polamee on Jan 24, 2011 at 03:33 AM

I've done most of the work, including modelling and texturing (badly) the BSP's as well as populating a most of the script work, although Gamma and Polamee bothed helped contribute to a good amount of key scripts that really shaped the map into what it is right now. We've been secret about this for over a year now, since it was started back in April 2009, and it's just now nearing completion, so hopefully, I can get this out soon. Anyway, here is a wall of text about the map, it's got some cool features I think you'll enjoy. Project: Innie: Single Player map You are a member of the 146th Force Recon division, an elite division of soldiers better than normal Marines, but not as good as ODST's. You are deployed on the moon Deimos, one of Mars' moons. There is a large Insurrectionist camp located in the desert. The UNSC had an informant reporting on their activities, but he was discovered and the Insurrectionists are holding him for ransom. Your mission is to infiltrate their base and rescue the informant. This map has many special features: Stealth based gameplay: Don't alert enemies, or else they will call in backup Use silenced weapons or you will be discovered Varying difficulty: The number of enemies in the map varies depending on how many enemies you alert. Alerting 1 squad will cause backup to assist that squad. Alerting 3 will cause a Pelican to come and drop off a new squad to fight you. Alerting 5 will cause a Pelican to come and drop off a Warthog full of enemies. Alerting 6 will make the exfiltration very hard, and alerting 7 will cause very bad things D:, additionally, the more enemies you alert also increases the amount of enemies later on in the level, as well as their awareness level. Firefight style gameplay: Certain parts of the level have you hold out for a set amount of time against waves of enemies until help can arrive. Ambient wildlife: Completely immerse yourself in the game with a variety of ambient wildlife AI, including fish, rats, and alien birds. Admire the spectacular wildlife of Deimos (or kill them, if you're an evil person :[) Pics: Silenced Assault Rifle: New night vision because blue > green Player biped: Insurrectionist: Fish: Quadwing bird: Rat: It's hard to see, sorry, I didn't realize it blended in that much o.O Innie camps: Innie Warthog with Grenade Launcher: Edited by UnevenElefant5 on Jul 24, 2010 at 08:14 PM the moon really IS made of cheese

Gamma927 Joined: Jun 12, 2008 Steam: gamma927	Posted: Apr 6, 2011 05:36 PM Msg. 53 of 196 Some of you may be wondering about the map's progress. The map is not entirely dead (population and everything is finished), but the map is fairly buggy and much remains to be done. It is also worth mentioning that our tagset changes once every two weeks; any changes at this point will likely be obsolete within a few weeks. As such, production has shifted to other... things.

Haven't seen him here in years :D Lol? I haven't seen you here in years :P I never left. Basically the status of the project is as follows: The whole thing is basically more or less "done" (ie: the level is playable from start to finish) however, there are still many, many bugs to fix. Some of these bugs have persisted since the creation of the level and I have exhausted all my energy attempting to fix them. There are a good number of major flaws in this level which, after about 2 years of modelling bsps, scripting, populating, animating, recording dialog, etc, I have (presently) run out of motivation to complete. I am also working on an RTS game for a different engine, struggling to get stuff done for UMP in time for summer, and working on a new SP project which I hope to finish in time for Higuy's SP contest (if that is still going on). To be honest, Innie is last on my list of things to do right now. But keep in mind, it IS on the list. Now, in addition, the aforementioned projects, while important, still take a back seat to my school work, which is being assigned at a rate fast enough to presume that my teachers are attempting to drown me in paper. Rest assured however, that come summer, work will resume on all projects, and hopefully at least one of them can actually be finished. E@Carter: there are MAKO drones present. Some are equipped with moderate homing missiles, and others have light machine guns. I can get a picture if you want. Edited by UnevenElefant5 on Apr 6, 2011 at 06:43 PM

Edited by UnevenElefant5 on Apr 6, 2011 at 06:43 PM Since the level is playable from start to finish and you have exhausted all of your energy in fixing what bugs are still persisting, would you consider releasing what you have? I'd be keen to see and play what you have created and I'm worried its gonna be another 85% completed map that we'll all never see, along with the hundreds of others that never see the light of day. Old threads need to be bumped to remind the map creators that the hundreds of hours they spent making the map is kind of a waste if they're never released and really disappointing for people like me who really look forward to the release of major projects, just to find out that it's been cancelled.

Gamma927 Joined: Jun 12, 2008 Steam: gamma927	Posted: Apr 7, 2011 05:56 PM Msg. 65 of 196 You aren't funny. Get over it :P (notice the :P to indicate lack of seriousness, yada yada). This is a stupid discussion. As for the map, the large amount of enthusiasm indicates that Elefant probably might maybe do some work on it to appease you guys. The majority of work at the moment is tagset work (a joint effort by me and him and some other people). There are, however, several issues that need a bit of dedication to complete. These issues will take time and quite frankly, won't be done soon. Dunno what elefant thinks about this, but we could turn this thread into an update thread on tagset progress and other things (monthly progress though; we hate deadlines :D).

I've just been having trouble finding the time/motivation to work on it. I don't mind turning this thread into an updates thread, but I fear there will be a shortage of updates >_>. I didn't know how the MAKO drones should look, but then I saw the opening h2 cutscene and thought the camera drones were pretty cool looking, so I stole them. :p. Also, I just realized how bad the shaders are. :P
