While the Covenant possess a roughly identical counterpart to match almost any weapon in the UNSC arsenal, I notice that they seem to be lacking a faction-specific medkit design. While Covenant-themed maps are rather uncommon, a counterpart to the Human medical kit would be incredibly useful for such projects. So if anyone would be willing to try it out, some screenshots would be nice.

very smart i shall attempt

Humans are pansies and want to heal.
Covenant go home and say. "Damn look at this sweet battle scar guys! I almost bled out on this one."

Go through the game s and see which race talks about honor the most. I am sure it is going to be the covenant. There is a reason a warrior race does not have doctors or med packs.

Actually only the elites care about honour.
Brutes are backstabbers.
Grunts are... grunts, nuff said.
Jackals are cowards who hide behind their shield or else stay way out of the battlefield and snipe you.

But yes, Elites probably wouldn't use Health Packs.

Yeah. Grunts pretty much covered it. But despite the canonical status of such equipment, it's mostly a gameplay element. To be used in places where a player might need a quick health boost, while not looking too out of place.

hey im almost done there this weird defect well heres it so far

Grunts, the elites DO have medical technology, but they prefer not to use it as it "strips" them of their honor. They have two hearts FYI, so they can live through serious injuries aswell.

needs a more mettalic feel to it, to bad you can't use the a50 covenant floor bump bitmaps, that'd prolly do it...

the other two are internal

looks like really really bright elite skin

elites rnt reall tho

Interesting, but it doesn't really have that "Covenant" feel to it. But considering there haven't been any previous examples of Covenant medical technology, I'm not exactly sure what to suggest. Perhaps scale a Covie Supply Crate down to Medkit size? Maybe make it glow a bit, etc.



Ok, let's try looking at this a different way. These health packs are simply supposed to look as if they're pieces of Covenant equipment. Regardless of whether or not they would be utilized by the Elites is irellevant. I'm sure Blue Team won't have a problem with using them.

I would say it would still be boxlike but with covenant curvatures inlaid in the top and sides.

If I were to do it, I would just make the regular overshield model with a + in the middle symbolizing medical, and maybe make it have 8 sides or something. It would fit in beautifully with the Halo 1 tagset.

Yeah, I thought about something like that, too. But perhaps simply a glowing, white orb, rather than a +. Maybe with a flat-topped pyramid design, similar to CMT's speed-boost powerup.

surely you can be more original than a rounded box with a forerunner rune on top?

Traditional Powerup-Style Health Kit.


Boxxy. ^_^

Maybe something like one of these?

lmao i used giraffe fur and photoshopped it. xD

Sorry, but, epic fail.
You need to break away from box modeling soon.
Your bsps and your models keep coming from boxes, it's getting to be old now.

nice box where the health pack?

I guess we just differ on our methods. But personally, I never create any primitives during modeling, except if i need to use part of a cylinder for a curve.

Edited by eliteslasher on Nov 14, 2010 at 04:59 PM

covenants stuff is suppose to look oraganic so..maybe if you added curves or something

I am completely re doing it any suggestions for the texture?

Edited by Megaguirus on Nov 14, 2010 at 05:25 PM

foo go make the hippo gun or somethin i got this

okay go make a square in gmax foo your beast.

Maybe borrow the textures and stuff from the c_supply crates.

Instead of a red symbol, maybe a little glowy light?

I think it should look sort of like a reach armor ability

Kinda like Evade?

i meant in appearance like the model for evade when it's placed in forge, SIR

I feel better about my self thank you.
what are you showing me?
