There will be a jail, it will be somewhere else on the map, I'm just having fun making this building right now since I found out how to pack rediculously large amounts of terrain models into one BSP :)

When you think about it, Prison is basically a free restaurant!

So I made a biped & a vehicle. 3 sided pyramids (they use the same model, collision, & animation). No effects, attachments, nada.
null.zip - unpack it in tags\null\
Somebody try it out. It appeared to work in sapien - the vehicle changed the biped's health from 1 to -1 (destroyed after dying), but i didn't build a map using them, so let me know, and I'll upload it to halomaps if all is well

Hey Orangue, u going to make it open air, so, say a prison hornet in a riot could come down and supress them?

Though it wouldn't be much of a prison then...

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but two things I would really like to see in close quarters mp maps is:

-vents or ducts (laundry shoots?) just small enough to throw grenades through and fall out at strategic locations

-scenery made as undrivable vehicles so that it moves around when blown up (crates, chairs, cabinets, whatever's relevant)

Having a sort of duct system like sciophobia would be an interesting feature

maybe, if I ever actually finish this thing.

inresting :o

very intresting :D

i think a good name for this map would b 'hard time'

I think there should be a Taco bell at the food court and some tables along with chair "vehicles" for those that want to use the map for a machinima.

Is it possible to make it so that the gunner of a specific vehicle has marines-recording vision?

i have no idea, maybe someone else will?

I think I might have some good ideas for a campaign. Suppose there are zombies, but you have to actually be killed by them to end up as them, as their bites aren't infective ....

I'd like mine toasted please.

id like mine medium rare

Wellp, This lil project is dead....again. I prolly won't start working on it again until December(unless I magically come up with ideas for rooms and architecture)

In the mean time, Some old stuff I managed to find :P

First mention of this project
Old builds(yes, I was fooling around, adding stuff I'd never use in the final.)
Death sounds I was going to use
Content I was going to use, still have this stuff(the wtfboom grenade doesn't make that sound anymore, I think I changed a setting in the tag...)
A commencement chamber/theater
Content I was going to use:PART 2

gulch?

(Yeh, it's just a project name so people don't know what it is: ... ****gulch)

Anyways... Can I make a device_machine have different appearances in multiplayer? like wooden/metal/plastic doors compiled into one device_machine?
Edited by OrangeJuice on Oct 11, 2011 at 12:44 PM

Yeah, why not? I'm not actually aware that permutations are avalible for devices too but they'll sync if you use the script command,

(object_set_permutation [object] [string] [string])

Where the 1st string will be the region of the object in question(use "" for all regions) and the 2nd string will be the permutation itself.

Oh ok, so this can be used to place metal/wooden/plastic doors using only 1 tag?

EDIT> I'm remaking jail sections, should I use a10 doors(which can be locked and controlled remotely) or make new sliding-cell-bar-walls(which can't be because I don't know how to use functions)?

EDIT> 10/13: Mind the quality, Sapien pic.

Remaking the jail, since I don't have any of the old BSP models. This one will be more concrete and less futuristic, but the concealed jailer sections WILL be futuristic and a lot more detailed than the older versions.
Doors will be controllable by switches that will open(first floor-left side,first floor-right side, second floor-whatever...)
Doors will be openable from one-side-only(if Halo allows)
Edited by OrangeJuice on Oct 13, 2011 at 12:29 PM

You could modify the a10 doors in Guerilla and add your custom model if you wanted an easy way to do both.

Definitely not ready for the "gift", I'll wait for the next generation to come to the HEK.

Any updates? It's been 2 months. Are you still working on this at all?

I work on this like once every other month, I'm out of floorplans so now I just throw rooms together.
wow you still want this?

Of course we still want this. Yours is the 96th post. That's a lot of posts when you really think about it. This map looks awesome.

I want it too!

Device machines do not sync over a network connection.

YoYorast Island V2 had working Devices that synced over the network, as long as everyone who was in the server was there when the device was pressed.

^^This^^

Dennis, stop sticking to old news. Anything is possible with hard work. ;)

Eat your own head, the one on your neck.

I have highlighted the part of your statement that proves mine. Device machines do not sync over a network connection. It is just a fact. Scripting does not substitute for the base netcode not supporting transmitting device machine information or status between client and server. You can script a close approximation using the biped-kill method with on-off devices but they are still not synced and more often than not prone to position errors like the one you just described.

Orangejuice wants to use both a device machine and trigger device to remotely control doors in what I assume is a key part of the gameplay for his multiplayer map and the fact that Device Machines do not sync will undoubtedly cause issues.

Very impressive. You should make an RP version as well.

Should the jail be underground, or should it be a complex?

mmm, dungeon jail would be good aesthetically, but in a complex would be better gameplay-wise. My opinion.

Will animated scenery(that moves left or right, some in patterns) sync online?

And If so, how can I make scenery that flashes and disappears when shot?
