Stock maps as well as custom BSPs from others, but I don't model at all and have no interest in beginning to.

I do live commentary, post commentary is twice the effort.

Have you made any progress?

I have, thanks for reviving this, I've been meaning to post for a while. Here is a small video that will show you one of the small things I've done recently. Read the description for a full explanation. Opinions on it are appreciated.

Also, menu is finished. I'll edit this post soon with a video of that.

Lastly, I've got a request of anyone who's willing: the SPI biped (Spartan 3) is what I'm hoping to use as, well, the Spartan 3s of the UNSC: http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=4889 My problem is this - the goal of my campaign is to be as Halo-realistic as possible, and the SPI biped that I linked to is too large (they're the size of Spartan 2s, Spartan 3s were the size of normal humans). I would greatly appreciate the favor if someone were able to scale the model down for me, and get it to use marine animations. You would be credited, of course.

I can try to do this for you Cereal ;)

Thank you, it would be a huge help if you could.

Hello Lod3x

Your beta is staying in a run-down motel receiving multiple blowjobs from cheap prostitutes. Basically what I'm saying is, it will come when it's ready.

Polite regards

The leader of the steamroller that is the Red Skull Engineering Corps, The Cereal Killer

Your beta is ridiculously unmasculine if it doesn't come within the next hour.
Sincerely,
The guy who takes every metaphor literally, Noobyourmom

What's wrong with teh beta? It's a friggen beta. Or was it an Alpha...

BTW: Combo breakah!

He's referring to the build yet to be released.

As for the old version that a few people played before it was removed, well that no longer holds relevance to this project. A proof of concept, maybe, that free-roam campaign style was possible with HEK, but I'd already done that with Hollywood Knights.

Ahh ok. I thought he was talking about teh old one.

Actually,I believe he is waiting for me to finish something for him before he releases anything.

TCK, I have tomorrow night off, so if you see me on xfire remind me finish that "thing" for you because I will probably get distracted by something else if you don't.

It's not just that, I just can't focus in general so whenever I sit down to do some part of it, less ends up getting done than hoped for :L

But thanks for the effort, it would help to have that.

Nice anims on that Spartan. Do you know if it's possible to create turning animations on a biped or not?

Yes, the turning animations for a given unit (stand rifle, stand pistol, alert rifle, alert unarmed, etc.) are referenced in the same block as the move-front (walk or run forward) animation in the animation tag.

lol i tryed 2 do this but it cant wrk in halo ce so i juzt thoght i should tel u b4 u waisted ur time

Try opening it as multiplayer map...


Can I saw spammah? Anyone?

no im sayin i had made thz type of map but it didnt work in ce and nothng worked so i had to stp makin it and i was teling the cerel killer he shoudnt wast his time im jut trying 2 help him

Anyone can do it. It isn't hard. I even made a version awhile back. Not exactly the same concept but close.

if it isnt hard then y hasnt sum1 relesed it becuz its imposible

Not many people have thought of it and he has not finished yet. TCK hasn't that is. Hasn't finished yet.

Why in the world are you accusing anything that someone hasn't done as impossible?.. your implying that its impossible for all of us to ever die because we haven't yet; that we will live for eternity just because we ourselves haven't died yet. Or that because nobodies shot you yet in life, that it insures nobody will ever shoot you.

Is it possible for you to type properly?

I doubt it.

Erm... not sure what to think.

When are you going to do the trailer or the commentary. I love the idea. If you need help with anything just ask.

I'm not sure that guy can really spell by the way. Look at his recent posts.

I'll submit the trailer with commentary to CE3. Forgot to mention before, someone has helped me with scaling the Spartan 3 biped down, so that is no longer needed.

Those were all armored marines, the regular marines (which appear frequently now) are killed in a sniper shot or about 7 AR shots. I'm providing a balance between the two types.

Yeah, he went on with a more realistic armor, rather than a peice of thin metal that bullets go through. As he said it should be balanced in the final build. There should probably be some custom weapon skins, I've got a few but maybe You want original weapons to keep it intact with Halo CE.

This deserves a bump.

The Red Skull Engineering Corps. (http://www.xfire.com/communities/rsec/) has assumed full command of this project and we'll be making much quicker progress than ever before.

Yes. I need opinions on the time of day element that we are adding. It will obviously be used to determine whether it is day or night, but there are several ambiguities through which to work. For example, if you happen to simply be wandering around an area when the clock strikes 7, should night simply befall you then and there? The alternative is for the clock to only be checked for night and day when you travel to another location, to thus determine whether you arrive at night or in the daytime. Both of these seem equally plausible and interesting, so please give your opinions.

A story change has been made, or rather a detail added, since nothing had been said pertaining to this as of yet. The story takes place 21 years after the start of the Spartan 2 program, and you are one of the very first being deployed. The entire campaign is set on the world of Tyer (pronounced "teer") which has been notorious for both rebel and smuggling activity as of late.

The first animation I ever made is now being shown since I've deemed it too crappy to use: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ChE0aByYf4 He was intended to be standing in the back of a dropship (which explains his arm) and grabbing the gun off the wall next to him.

Keep this up guys! Very good work.

Thank you very much. We really would like opinions on this part especially, please:
