I think you meant Spartan III*

I would also like to add that a few "stealth" encounters would be nice, and a custom BSP.

I cannot model for my life. If I made a custom BSP the map would be WAY WORSE.

I got the info for the Spartan-II program from this article:

http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Jacob_Keyes

It says this:
Quote: In 2517, seven weeks out of the OCS, Lieutenant (J.G.) Keyes was assigned to the UNSC Magellan when those orders were rescinded and he was chosen to assist Dr. Catherine Halsey with her task of searching for usable subjects for her SPARTAN-II project.


Anyway, thanks for your support.

I could make one.

You do realize Master Chief was a Spartan II right?
Secondly, Keyes didn't make Spartan II's, he helped Halsey look for potential candidates.

But, yeah, at this point in time Spartans didn't have shields. Although if that was your readme I would strongly advise to change it.

Sorry if I'm coming on as a jerk, but I really am obsessed with canon.

Don't worry, your not coming across as a jerk. I thought master chief was a Spartan-VI
isn't that what his armor is called, a MERK 6? Anyway I'll change the story to how Keyes found you and brought you to a training camp at age 6.

If your willing to make a BSP then go for it! However stealth BSPS are different than regular BSPS there has to be a lot of terrain to hide behind. Many cliffs to snipe off of, and other stuff.

This is my recreation of that COD4 stealth mission.

Just to let you know, Spartan-II were the ones in Halo 3, Energy Shields and stuff

According to Halo:Ghosts of Onyx, Spartan-III s have stealth suits (active camo) without energy shields.

This is a cool idea by the way :)

In other words I did notmake this, only specified some parameters and let a program do the work.

Oh, well any way, it's still really good! Is there any way to export it into a MAX file or something?

The picture shown was in Max, sorry if I'm confusing you.
Here are steps:

1: Read pepzee's post
2: Use 3rd Party Heightmap generator
3: Export to MAX
4: Post
5: Profit?


Um, okay. So why can't we just export it then? Or does this mean that someone else created the map? Sorry but I'm really confused.

If you can think up of a better name for the planet, I will take it.

It's in Max, it's been exported to 3ds Max, I'm making the .jms right now, so it's all carepackaged up for Halo.

And no, a computer application made the map. Sorta like a plugin for 3ds Max that does most of the work for you, than you touch it up. :L (I just can't resist posting that)

And before someone calls me a lying fcktard, I never claimed or intended to take credit for the creation of this map. I'm just sick of all these campaigns on pre-existing maps.
Edited by Sergeant Major on Dec 7, 2010 at 11:54 PM

Oh I see, I think. Interesting. Did it texture it too? What else can it do? Also how big is the map?

It did texture it, though I'll need to fix that because it really looks bad up close. All it does is make heightmaps. The map is..um..

About 2 Bloodgulches side by side.

2 BGs Hmm... It's a little small. But I could still make something work out of it. What I will do with this one is, you will get dropped of and you will "stealth" through the canyon. However for the assassination I will need some thing ohh... umm... about half the size of cold snap. with lake a huge hill or something overlooking the ENTIRE place. That is why I chose coldsnap in the begging, because there are so many mountains overlooking the entire map.

So yes, I think I will use this BSP. Thanks!

Apologies, but I'm also a bit of a canon fanatic, and would like to point out the following things:


  • The Human-Covenant War did not start till 2525.

  • You might have meant to mention Yayap because Flipyap is only a humourous grunt character mentioned by other grunts in Halo 3 while the IWHBYD skull is activated.

  • The SPARTAN-III Project did not start until 2531.

Okay story's changed. I used Flipyap(or is it Yapfilp?) because of that reason, the grunt that went to nipple academy with his friends. If you think Yapyap is a more epic character, please tell me why and I will change his name.

Quote: --- Original message by: Carter 151
DARN! I spent so much time coming up with hthat name...what about Frostmaw or the Tundras of Himaylia

Interesting names. I will think about them I came up with some too. Here they are:

1. Glaeglatio
2. Frostya
3. Arcturos
4. Iceshatter
5. Frozen Deep
6. Icile Quadrant
7. Snowy Shard
8. Frigid Land
9. Chillbreeze
10. Crystal Glacier
11. Glacialis
12. Iceblown Glacier
13. Arctys Novalisp
14. Icy Crystal
15. Frozen Waste

I came up with most of these of the top of my head. Let me know what you think!

If someone is willing to make a biped like that I will take it. However for now all I'm going to do is change the armor color to white.

That could actually work. It doesn't even have to be a planet! This could be just some remote glacier in the middle of nowhere. That Flipyap and the prophets deiced to meet.

What would be cool: Snowbound-like covie structures. Perhaps on your approach, you have to sneak through a cave connecting two structures, like in snowbound.

Maybe, if someone is willing to make one.

I'm not sure if I could do that. Maybe if there were covenant base scenery tags. Ot just more covenant tags in general. There are hardly any covenant tags. I have a few requests of people, these are just requests and are not required for what I'm doing. Here they are:

REQUESTS:

1. More kinds of covenant scenery, if it comes down to it I will be just placing covenant boxes every where and that's a little boring.

2. Covenant "snow-troopers" For instance they might look more insulated or they could be white to blend in with the backround.

3. A POWERFUL looking sniper rifle. As of now I am using this tag:
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=4066
It isn't the best tag but it works.

4. More silenced weapons. as of now I have four: SMG, Sniper, Pistol, AR. That is it. I think I saw on Gamma927s youtube channel that he had a silenced BR, something like that would be helpful too. (Silenced shotgun would be good too!)

5. As mentioned above, I would like to have a younger looking Keyes biped, a spartan-III biped, and a Flipyap grunt biped.

All of these are requests and do not have to be done, but if they are they would help game play. If you have some of these tags and are willing to share,or make them, I could use them. I will give FULL credit to the makers of that tag. I will also protect the map.(What good that will ever do.)

Thanks!

Just search it on this site I know there's a map with one somewhere

There is over 5,000 maps on this web-cite! I'll look for it, but it would be a lot less time consuming for just to use the specture. But the doozy is a good idea.

Trust me finding it will be easy. Just enter the word doozy and you'll find at least four maps with it!

Okay, I think I see a map with it. Since I'm not on my windows machine now, I'll have to test it out tomorrow. The one problem I have is that it's a human vehicle. I want them to seal a covenant vehicle. That way they don't have to lug around a doozy during their stealth mission.

Not if the human vehicle was in covenant controlled space! Have it where the covenant are studying it or have it as the vehicle you rode on that got stolen and then recaptured. Humans weren't the only side that stole they're opponents tech.
By the way which map is it
Edited by Carter 151 on Dec 9, 2010 at 12:45 AM

Okay, I will think about how the doozy got there in the first place.

As for which map, I don't know, Sergeant_Major hasen't PM'd me back about the his BSP, so it looks like I'm using the Snow-Grove BSP, and the Coldsnap BSP.

Gonna catch some sleep for the night. I'll know more answers tomorrow. I'll be back on at about 6:30 EST. So you can ask me about updates then. See ya!

Yayap is apparently a very respected and intelligent Spec-Ops grunt, but your grunt is more of a minor issue than the rest of the things I pointed out. Hell, it doesn't even matter much. Also by 2525 the High Prophets were Truth, Regret and Mercy, as they are in the Trilogy.

Looks like there will be one. Not unless Sergeant_Major is nice enough to make another. However I'm starting to wonder about my usage of coldsnap, I'm sort of trying to recreate the attempted assassination on Imran zakhaev in COD4. What I need in a map is like a HUGE ledge overlooking the map. This is why I choose coldsnap, but if there is ANY better maps out there let me know!

I chose Tolerance and Restraint for that reason. While Truth, Regret and Mercy are busy commanding the covenant fleets, Tolerance and Restraint would still be around to do other stuff. I also think I will go with Flipyap instead of Yapyap, just because it is more humorist.

Quote: --- Original message by: Sergeant Major
Oopsies. Completely forgot pepzee, my bad. Uploading right now.

As or the whole grunt thing, I would recommend it being a Deacon. A very influential Deacon, that the Prophets were planning to kill on this mission anyway.

Who is Deacon? Is that another famous grunt? Also how should I give credit for the BSP? Thanks for the BSP!

Quote: --- Original message by: Carter 151
I agree... oh and for the sequel have an ODST scenario involving a captain and his lieutenant who are sent to assasinate a covenant arms dealer, and end up having to shoot down waves of angry enemies before being extracted by a pelican running low on fumes. you know just to bring back memories of COD 4

That is what I'm trying to do! Once you kill Flipyap, the ENTIRE covenant army on (insert planet name here) will know where you are, you must then run to the pelican that is running on fumes, while being hunted down by the covenant.
