i'm not exactly sure i can put asteroids out as i dont know how to make multiple stand alone models with gmax yet but if anyone has some sceanery tags or can make them i'll add them in, or i'll just use "junk" and rocks and stuff..

very good ideas you have.. i belive i have a cov cruiser but i'm not sure if it works good, i'll see what i can use... i never really thought about a jetpack but i do have one i can use

thats the only type i have is the realistic type

i have a gmax file that might help. it has a sphere for a planet and another sphere for an atmosphere and there both inside a gigantic box to create space.


also adding drop pods to the ships would be fun

That won't work. Gravity only pulls one direction.

Someone should make an sp on this^ map where you have to defend the POA

That map is multiplayer and has lots of vehicles for space combat. But mp and sp space combat would be completely different

maybe a frigate instead
i like their wing design

That big boxxy section hanging down from the bottom, where the Scorps deploy in Halo 3.

orry for long awaited reply, i'm having my ground built now when i'm done i will do some testing with some stuff.. the pelican will have heat seakers

I'm recreating reach, so will be doing a similar thing:

Seraphs, banshees, phantoms, spirits, a corvette and a capital ship

Pelicans, longswords, stingrays and a UNSC Frigate.

Blarg. Everything is available.

stingray?

Tusken raid is okay but it's star wars based. I think stingray would be a good replacement. I haven't seen it in-game so now's a good oppurtunity to get it working: http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=4022

the bases should have infrastructure

fusion reactors
armory(s)
controllable ship batteries
hanger(thats a given, possible plural hangers)
doors(if at all possible they should be sealable)
command bridge(most important)
hangers could have plasma windows that could be turn on or off

also if possible there could be a vaccum of space maybe something with intense gravity to simulate it

Yeah, make it like a Star Wars Battlefront II space battle where you can board the enemy ship and take down the shields etc.

Gee, a space map. How original.

Considering there are only a handful of them, yes, it is fairly original.

Look at this, It MAY go off topic a bit.

Illusionary (Or a solid like structure that entities\clients can go right through.) atmospheres and land in the center of the planets, its possible.

Dead Space like map. Just got it. It rules.

Its a game

lol, a dead space map would be hard.

is it done yet
i want it i want it i want it i want it i want it i want it
that pelican looks bad ass
and i want to feel bad ass when i play it

Nice bump.

Anyway, probably not till a while.
Making space maps can be very hard.

im making a space map with accurate hangers and vehicles for it

sorry for really long reply guys, still working on the ground itseld.. school not helping much but its slowly coming along.. the asteroids are the hardest part amd the bases are iffy right now. but they are floating

alright, this week i got 4 projects due so idk when i'll get more done but so far this is one bace


no smoothing on

Why not just put some basic hangar like the one in hugeass in either the Pillar of autumn or In amber clad scenery tags, then make a variant of the truth and reconciliation hangar for a covenant capitalship and put it in the scenery tag? Put in a little 'space' sky, a few flyabe vehicles and heavy weapons, maybe some turrets and a MAC cannon (mythos projectile), and you're DONE!

Why did nobody think of that?!

will resume at the end ish of may when school gets out.. I've been bogged down with homework or was having to do work, sorry for not replying sooner but life happens

So how's the map going it's been a while since we've been updated.

make it like starfox 64

where you fly around a lot of space junk and have a damaged station

Flyable Pterodactyls for the win?

why are people bumping good old projects?

Well, I was genuinely interested in a space map that felt like you were battling. In Space.
But seriously I feel a map with two frigates that gives you a choice between fast-paced close quarters combat inside said frigates and long lenthy exploration and battles outside in the vacuum would be a very popular map. And that was what i was hoping this map would be.

Well, I've been working on one, since before this thread I think. It'll probably be my only credible work, but
hell, it's something.
