It says in the description, CTF. So that you spawn on the right side of the map.
I'll fix this later.

Its a modified version of Assault.

You may need a forced gametype script to force the player to play a certain gametype. A demonstration of such a script could be found in DMT's Neutral bomb maps.

That is why i didn't know. I don't have the map so i don't have the description :P

GET READY FOR MOAR VALHALLA UPDATES!

Soon to be edited

AHAHAHA. Now that I posted, you HAVE to make a new post :D

Uh



So qwerty made new base shaders, and they are more shiny, but I kind a wanted them to be dark at some angles.
Also, qwerty, the mark 6 has a marathon radio on it?

Right now any gametype except for ctf uses the mark 6 player permutation, and ctf is marathon (security) vs hyabusa.

wow, really looks awesome, i like what u've done around the bases and the blending of the grass into the dirt, noice, this really is going to b an epic map.
just from qwerty's vid, the visor might look better if it was a little brighter, shinier? it looked a little dull to me.
great collaboration and great work guys.

edit: did u get rid of the stand-up grass? it might look nice to have something around the base of the trees where the grass meets the trunk.

i think it's awesome work you guys are doing here, 1 thing i did notice from 1 of your images is this...
it looks tiled, but it could just be the distance the fp view is from it.

but the keep in mind that's just how i saw it when i looked at the image.

Slappy, why are you not on xfire?

Okay. So right here it looks alright. But you can see too much of the arm. If it weren't in fp he would be holding it in his armpit area. So my thoughts are bend the elbow a little more and lower it just a bit, but if you lower it make sure to make it point up a little more too so it compensates for the difference. Other then that i think it looks good.

The 3P biped of the Spartan still needs better shaders (looks too plastic right now, or clayish) and the valley needs an overhaul in lighting (you'll see it as you look through Valhalla more and more. Otherwise, good job!

Bump detail or no?

I say yes. looks a ton more realistic, closer to halo 3, does it increase the map size by much or any?

EDIT: Also have you thought about adding scratches in around the edges of the armor?, make it look more battle warn and unlike it's brand new. And maybe darken the bitmap so it's not as bright as it is in the video posted

Personally, I think it looks better than the other, but I recommend you use a color. White makes everything look chalky.

I modded the ar contrail.

I like that you can see the detail better in this pic, my opinion on the mater remains the same

Something i noticed is that in the vid it looks like valhalla is having a drought, weird because it's right by a huge body of water, see in this image
looks really tan and bright. A simple import of it into PAINT.NET! and changing the brightness in there fixes this see
and that's just with this image. i think it'll work on the actual bitmaps themselves

EDIT: ok so you can't really see them at this size, closer you get the more you can see it does actually look better

I see what you mean. The grass does look a little dry.

Here is a new updated shaders:

*looks behind bipeds* YAY! Pelican looks positioned correctly now! And I personally think the bipeds look great. Shaders not over shiny, looks great!

Yeah, I've rotated the pelican a bit yesterday so it wasn't parallel to the cliffs.

*way better cliffs thanks to higuy*

happy face

1) Fix your HUD
2) Fix your bitmaps and detail maps
3) Make a custom sky
5) Fix the lightmaps
Don't get lazy, this has a lot of potential.

You forgot please. Anything you would like to help with?

Despite the fact that your question was satirical, ill bite. I don't mod anymore, however I do have my old hard drive where I had halo 3 Valhalla bitmaps, if I have time I can send those over. That is of course if you would like me to.

Base shaders, and jesse's halo 3 hud v2.

Ignore the weapon hud and the halo 1 ctf, I didn't change those.


Visor? Like/Hate?





Red and blue shaders are the default hardcoded colors. These are temporary and will most likely be changed.

the map is gay, the hud is gay, your spartans are gay!

jk

Base Shaders are hot, The visor looks sexy, maybe add a different cube?

Overall, looks really good qwerty

The visor's an edited cubemap of a default cubemap.

Spartan shaders are so much better. I don't know what it is though, they look good, but just.. idk.. too smooth; as if a fresh coat of paint was applied to their armor. More scrathes/ dents IMO.

Spartan Shders look outstanding now. Great job!

The base needs more grime to it.

And I agree with CLS. Please work on lightmaps. The map has a distinct areas of shade to it.

I would go see if Spartan094 would lend his shaders to you. Those look... odd, almost like their missing some quality. Most likely becuase of not using a correct multipurpose and using fake bump maps.
