Excuse me?

... I wasn't saying "Excuse me" to the tagging part, i was saying it to the profane insult.

In what disgustingly messed up country is this okay?

As soon as this forum turns into a country you'll have your answer.

Bull. That was intentional, but nice try covering it up.

back on topic, settle your discussion in P.M's i don't want this thread locked

Cheddars then gave it to me to try and get the model in-game cuz the model was screwed. I did my best and that's what happened. And yes, that's my Xfire profile. So what?

i got an invite from you and though it was someone else, so what was wrong with the model?

there is a part that's not even a part of the main model that's like 5 squares away. Thus, when exported, it ends up looking like this.

I tried detaching, deleting, and any other thing I could think up of but it wouldn't go away.
So I just gave up... :(

what does this part look like is it something you modeled or a marker or something?, i really want to help get this ingame

it's just like... idk. it looks like there's nothing there, but 3dsmax says there is. It's just a small speckish thing.

go to select by name and see if it has a name, if it's something like box3 or something, then (if you haven't tried yet) go to edit and delete, if it has a name like "frame whatever" or "#whatever" than it's a marker or node and it needs to be put in the right place, if you already know this and i sound like i'm talking down to you i'm not trying to,

Selected by name - Done it already
Edit and delete - If I try to delete that speck the whole part of the model gets deleted that was attached to it.
Markers and Nodes - There were none.

zoom into it and go to it's editable mesh, select the *select faces* tool, and drag and drop the select box over it, right click on it you should see detach, click that and a window should pop up, saying something like "detach as object whatever" click yes and delete that object

Looks good. Got textures?

Wow, I'm in heaven:

Well all of my attempts at making even the most basic of content in Gmax were all failures. My ugly pointy map made was successfully exported with Chimp into Sapien, and I opened it, but it was just complete blackness. sigh.

However I just found 5 GIGABYTES of TEXT tutorials for download via torrent on the Internet. Everything from Linear Algebra (-_-) to Visualizing Quaternions (I don't even know what that means!!!:D).

I just started laughing my head off when I saw the list of tutorials.

if your map came out black this happens to me sometimes, make sure that you named the part thats supposed to be the sky +sky and make sure it's not sky+, Then in tool after making it into a structure, go into guerilla and add a sky, then go back into tool and type "(tool lightmaps levels\mapname\mapname mapname 0 0.9)" and now it should work hope this helps and if it doesen't or you have another question P.M me and i'll see what i can do

I've been thinking. Has anybody ever considered using bink video for cutscenes in CE? Would save loads of animating.

I know loasd of modern games that use it, and I've also seen a utility on this website, so I'm guessing it's possible even though nobody uses it.

It's been done for Gears of War.

It can still be done though, what with the 343 guilty Spark after the credits? Is there not some way just to trigger a video after a checkpoint or something then?

There must be SOME way of editing it, even if it means engine modification, so that videos can be used in-game.

-EDIT-

I really want to write an epic morale-boosting awe-inspiring speech here.
But I can't think of one.

Hm.

Well, halomaps, I have just one thing to say. Even the greatest failiure in your eyes remains a victory to my own. *cue epic music from Lumoria trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRLdhFVzqt4

Now, where were we?

I actually downloaded Lumoria again the other day (i never completed it on my old cpu) and think we should add some deleted content like that. I mean, elites with swords AND shields? Prototype sceptres that are red and could ake very good revenants? Plus custom stuff like drones. Despite slightly buggy cutscenes, I was impressed.

ok i'm a n00b to this kind of stuff... I just finished reading the whole thread and I think it would be totally awesome. But why wont you do this in Halo 2? It would seem to fix at lest 1 of your problems. does Halo 2 not support SP maps? I would love to beta test this... It seems like Its the only thing I know how to do. I have beta tested many times for UBE Chief because we are both apart of CñR.

Edit:
Is grunt_eater apart of the team? I was never sure...
Edited by Superzilla on Mar 3, 2011 at 07:47 PM

Nope, it isn't possible for h2, if it were, this would probably be made on h2v.

thats what I'd like to know, no one will tell me how to join but i've have asked to

If I ever want to create something Im gonna need a link to a tutorial on making my first map... I know HEK comes with one but I just cant follow it... My map looked like a square with spikes lol.
EDIT: I would like a youtube video but the best I found only turned my map in to one big skybox

Edited by Superzilla on Mar 3, 2011 at 09:07 PM

i know how to do some stuff and were to find a lot of tutorials so if you need to know how to make something, P.M me and i'll see what i can do :)

If Lumoria really used TSFH...oh boy. I'd have to rage at Higuy.
Edited by General Shepherd on Mar 3, 2011 at 09:39 PM

Wow, I'm not reading a 1000 page book about Game Engine Design, however the 3DS Max 6 Bible looks nice.

grunt_eater, I will trust you with fire...

Anybody wishing to join HRCEMT, just ask and you're part of it. Any help is accepted.

P.S. superzilla thanks for reading through the thread. It makes things a lot easier if you wish to paticipate in it.

-EDIT-

Higuy's HD Lumoria Trailer is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_v6P63k_KA

*sets fire station on fire (how ironic), and asks to be a part of the team :)*

At least it would be an easy job for the firemen...I think...

No you misunderstand, I set the fire station and everything in it on fire. including all of their equipment, So they have nothing to put it out with, Now to stand back and watch it burn, and this my dear friends is how to think like the joker

So i haven't heard anything about the rebuild of powerhouse, is it done or still going on behind the scene?
Edited by grunt_eater on Mar 4, 2011 at 06:14 PM

ok I would LOVE to help in any way I could, and I can only beta test (I have never successfully made a map. first attempt was last summer.) so If beta testing allows me to be in HRCEMT then count me in... I am gonna make another attempt soon to make a map (thanks grunt_eater).

P.S. I think the other firemen would come :) and now I'm gonna play Lumoria :)

No they wouldn't come, They're to busy taking care of the fires in the bank volt\hospital, and i would like to beta test aswell considering that my dmr is weak and you have said that you were planing on using a jetpack vehicle, I will get some opinions on my plasma repeater once i finish it and release some pics\vids

was i a part of this team?? I can't remember
