Slappy's updates. Let's see if we can keep this thread rolling until the december, eh? I'll try to bump it later.
====================================================
Valhalla: Better UVWs!

I'll let you guys do the talking about this one.

Firefight: Flawed Legacy

The new bsp is underway... looks something like this. Eventually this will look like the seraph hangar from halo 2.
Thanks to mooseguy for collaboration on the area/idea... I didn't even want a hangar.
Again, chat away. Try not to quote this post, please. The pictures are just annoying to scroll though.

rip h2v seraph bitmap better quality

Can we see a full picture of Valhalla? Also, will there be a classic version of Valhalla?

Looks sick, dude! What kind of firefight will this be? Ex: infinite rounds, points system, ect

Valhalla looks very very sexy, I like it!

idk will there be a odst version of lumoria cwutididthere?

Um, let's not start with the higuy flames.
@ questions:
I had other topics about the firefight. It's basically points-based. You fight heretics and sentinels as the arbiter. Flood: I dunno.
Erm.. no classic. I mean, the point of the map is to hold my set of tags. Everyone online should be playing ONE Valhalla variant. Protectedness is still, er, debatable.
The rest of the bsp is untextured. It looks like bad. I guess I'll show another render of the outside part. Another update soon, keep the questions coming overnight or whatever.

Please no flood for your firefight, I cant put up with flood.

No, I meant my halo 3 tagset.
Are you sure no flood? Fine I guess...

No flood please. I think they are boring if not integrated in Halo's classic campaign. Flood are pointless without story, mood, and setup.
Also, unwraps are looking better. Please fix the shaders to have cubemaps.
And bsp is coming along well I'm happy to see the outer areas that I suggested in there.
Good job man!

good to see you got max sorted out and can continue work,a bigger picture of it would be cool to see,all in all it looks great.

Waiting for this to get release also :P

There are better h3 guns than sandtrap's. I have some. And he probably does too.

Doesn't Valhalla have 2 gravity lifts at each base? pretty sure it does.

There are two at each base. The picture doesn't show it. Also, that base is backwards, but it's fixed now.
I have working mancannons. I made them for narrows.

the base looks bigger then the elite compard to h3


:P the sideing is friking tall basicly from the look of your pic

know what the problem with ripping is? you dont get that awesome feeling you get when you accomplish something yourself

He already has the active camo as an instant equipment in Flawed Legacy.
I am also assuming that overshield will be made available.

Yeah, I'm kinda concerned about the scaling. You sure I'm doin it wrong? I'll take you word for it and re-ref.
I'm going to rip that bitmap, yes. Because I don't take pride in not finishing a map/having a crappy seraph bitmap.
"multiplaer" =/= "fail". There will be as much equipment as possible in firefight AND Valhalla.

BTW, for the scaling, I would scale it down so that the height of the player is equal to the height of one of the mancannon side-thingys.

Ok, I just confirmed: The scale is a little off. But only a little. The front man cannon hole is as wide as a hog (like you can drive a hog forward into it). A hog and a half can drive up the ramps. Two geese can fir nose to tail across the glass from the tip to the back hallway.
This makes sense, Moose, after double-checking the videos I have. I'll give this a shot.

Or maybe it was just a short elite.

Lol, this is where the topic name originated.

The elite is my Spartan-elite perm tags. The elite is as tall as a spartan.
+@Mooseguy... pic is annoying.

You should add those Drones from Lumoria, though. :D

If I knew there were drone tags, I would have made a Mombasa firefight.
Plus, drones aren't in this.

Mombassa Firefight, you say....

*stares expectantly*

New shaders...

If people have shader advice, spit it out. I want to get moving on the rest of the textures.

Needs more grime, which might be fixed by making the bump maps better. If you look at the b40 interior bumps with all high settings (with specular) then that would be a good reference to the shiny griminess the texture needs.

More grime you say?

Less grime, WAY MORE shiny.

Okay, how do I go about doing this? You want me to take a b40 interior's shader values, and then...
Later: ARGH death by shaders?

Looking good.

Looks better, BTW in the base model, should'nt there be a door right under the gravity lift?

no
