Lul how did this project die? Lots of people including me was looking forward to the release. The community needs this...badly At least say hi once in a while.

Yea well I finally realized stuff like this could never be accomplished in this community. I was too naive and hopeful.

what

no one needs this badly :lol:

This project has not died? Who told you it did?

Progress report please.

The april fools joke of a website, www.hekaio.info. Look at all those pretty fake pictures that have absolutely nothing to do with the program the site is supposedly based around. You may also notice there has been no activity here since April first. (Late) April Fools! There was never really any halo editing kit being developed to begin with.

The project was started in early March. This is not an April fools joke. Progress will continue when school is out for some of the main developers. I have 22 days left of school and currently crammed with finals and tests.

I've been meaning to ask, are you planning to implement (or rather, re-implement since it was removed) the ability to create recorded animations in the scenario?

We plan on adding the ability to import animations or possibly create them within the editor...

Too ambitious. Other programs already provided more superior animation features. Put your focus on the others first.

Not so. I'd much rather utilize the animation recording feature which Bungie had in the original version of Sapien, than animate in 3ds or a similar program then export it. Mainly for three reasons: 1. They were able to record and have it save right there, on the spot, in the scenario, and no exporting hassle. 2. They could implement quite a few in-game actions within the recording. 3. They are recording right inside the environment in which the action will take place. If you want to do that in 3ds, you have to import the bsp and even then you aren't 100% sure where to place the object in the scenario.

thread is all talk, and your website is a joke.


reality.

Harsh but true. We need pics.
-Zekilk

I'm sorry, you've apparently mistaken e3po for one of the everyday wannabes who makes a thread like this.

Personally I feel like the scope of the project is a bit big. I can't judge you and your team's dedication, but it seems to me like this is a bit much. I would focus on the core features of the program first, and then think about the bells and whistles later on.

Well, this thread is literary just talk. We seriously need some more pictures.
-Zekilk

Nope. http://forum.halomaps.org/index.cfm%3Fpage=topic&topicID=30228

He is like any other wannabe who makes a thread like this. As stated by someone else website is a joke. If a company put up a website like that, the people responsible for making it would get a cardboard box and a kick in the ass.

Fun fact. I'm Fairchild.

Anyway. Made a bit of progress today. Found a guy that is very interested in helping the project move along and is probably going to take leadership position as soon as school gets out. He has been a good project lead for many projects i've taken part in and he is well suited for the task!

Until then... I need a new song. nyan.cat has been stuck in my head for the past week.

Had this stuck in my head for a while.

Why don't you go ahead and name some of these many projects or are they all just secret hush hush stuff that you can't say and not even worth mentioning in the first place.

this program is going to help alot with map map making when its done :)

Does that song help any?

Any updates?

no. This has died. If there was an update, the person that was working on it would've done so.

what?! http://NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.com

^^Probably a sign it's dead. Unless he's going into hiding and working his butt off on it.

Just making it clear that this has not been killed, and will not be killed.

I've been working on stuff for work and I have to run the drumline for the school I am in. I've also had a 103 fever for the past 6 days. My room is torn apart because we are painting which means my main computer isn't plugged in thus i don't log into xfire on a daily bases.

You can always contact me by my email and get a reply usually withen 8 hours (That's usually the most i ever sleep).

As soon as my room is complete and everything is set back up and i get confortable I will hit this project into full motion.

Do not call this project "Dead" unless i post that it is dead. It is NOT dead.

Calling it dead would've been the only way to make the OP feel the absolute need to post, if it was still alive. If he didn't post, it would've been a sign it actually was dead. So.. win/win for me.

It's been four months with no progress... you need to pull your shat together bro. Team coordination need improvement, 3-5 hours a week on the weekend each week would have been enough if everyone pulled together to write some code. You may actually have had something to show rather than "excuses... excuses... excuses... it's not dead cause I'm awesome". Hell one person working alone could have pulled off more by now. You even have tag management handled cause you're using blamlib. Just cause you say it's not dead doesn't mean squat til you actually show something you've done over the last 4 months with your dream team. Just don't put them all into a van with your custom built computers :grub:.

No progress has been made. We have all been busy doing other things. School, life, etc. I can't coordinate a team when I have 18 hour days of school, work, band, and a girlfriend. It's impossible to do it correctly. That is why I've waited for everything to finish before things started getting out of hand in every which direction without me looking over what was going on. I never said anywhere in this thread "i'm awesome." Don't put words in my mouth unless you can directly quote me.

Progress will be made as soon as my room is together, right now i'm waiting for the paint to dry.

If you have no time to contribute to a project than you shouldn't be doing this project to begin with, it is almost like you are setting yourself up to fall hard.



Your right, the way you're talking just sounds familiar. "It's not dead ". When do you expect to be finished this project, let me guess, when it's done right?

Shush children :)

I am slow but i would be saying that your are trying to create a sandbox game editor using the Halo Game Engine. I though that you could use sapions tag system and add a linking code to allow in editor model importing exporting texturing and such.

You should make some of the things you want modulor [base engine/app then modules that could be added or removed.
