hey so if you have seen any of the videos for combat evolved anniversary, you have seen the firefight gameplay of "installation 04" and i just wanted to bring to light the fact that this would be an incredibly easy map to make with the tags available on this site. so if anybody is up for it i think it would be an awesome way of replicating the gameplay on the pc :) if anybody is up to it.

hmm, seems interesting.

I like this idea.

I wouldn't mind doing this actually. But some else would have to retexture anyways which I don't do. Soooooooo.
Yea.

Well I posted this little video on another thread too, but here it is. A little experiment I did on that area of halo 1 with all unedited default tags.

actually yeah i wouldnt mind doin that at all it sounds like it'd be fun :)

Okay well umm send me a build of the bsp (in map form plz) that's even remotely playable (pm it to meh plz) and ill get started rite away :] w texmod as long as you don't change the textures in your bsp mine will still be aplicable. This way I can go ahead and do graphical work as while you wrk on gameplay :]

Gimme gimme gimme!

Fishy?

OMG a covenant squad and 2 banshees on command lists or recorded animations, insane.

I like that hud, but ditch the compass if it doesn't work. It just looks funny. And please dear god tell me those weapons are placeholders.

This Firefight map in Anniversary is enough for me to buy the Edition alone. The fact that you can now have AI allies in Firefight is extravagant and there is so much one can do in that space. I'm so glad 343i decided to fund this side of the project!

Dear lord I hope so, because at the moment that is just gross looking, ridiculously shiny forerunner textures, black groundmap, same old Reach-ish weapons, and a jumbled hud. I really hope that you put some serious time and effort into polishing this map

I'd be willing to do the textures the legit way, through Guerilla and Sapien, and some tags.
Even AI possibly./

i think its jst alot faster w texmod plus when im done w them ill release them all so they can be put in thru sapien and such but i wanted to start w a stock version and leave the stock tagset for now ... atleast thats all i need for my build

If they were actually going to put forth some effort, you'd be looking at a custom BSP and not some stupid rehash of part of the campaign level with repetitive design.

It is NOT very hard to come up with way more interesting firefight designs and levels, it actually surprises me at how much people lack in doing so, and still stick with the bleak and boring firefight type from H3:ODST without much, or any, variation.

If it isn't black, its still so dark you can't tell what it is, and is really ugly.

So the texture you added in is way way to dark?

Eww. That looks horrible. It doesnt fit.
No, just no.

Yea...

you should get Eliteslasher to make a forerunner texture for that. Strangely, it looks like the texture used for CMT SPV2s Forerunner structures...

HAHAHHAHAA


Please, Elite has better things to do than make textures for Hiralis' crappy Installation 4 remake.

Thats certainly true.

No offense. I hoe Elite does someting really good with thaat texture...

I'am not a fan of the cmt spv2 textures. They look good but its not a good design for a covenant or foreunneur structure. BUT THE CMT IS BACK guys and the spv3 project will be look awesome ! :D

Why don't you make some then, instead of using CMT's which look awful in this particular case.

@Hilarous :

Take that big structure, unwrap it correctly and make some good looking textures for it. H1 unwrap on this is hard crap.

Hiralis ,Dont try to be the first. Try to be the best.

This sucks, take some real crits. This seems to be a random salad of stuff taken here and there, make something coherent. Try at least.

How does that make me a loser?

UMAD BRO?

But yeah, those look bad on there at least, and yeah, Elite would not waste his time on someone like you.

ODST did have boring Firefight maps, but I'm content with this one. And custom maps are always better, but I'm not going to complain about this simply because it's interesting and cool enough as is. Complaining about this would be like if someone complained about having $150,000 when they could have had $160,000 when in actuality they could have had nothing at all. It's kind of pointless to complain about this sort of thing, isn't it Higuy?

ill remodel the bsp for it to look more like reachs.. with the better cliffside and the cliff edits towards the entrances

Yes, we should never complain about wanting new content rather than rehashed content. Wouldn't want to give the industry the message that we are 100% content with rehases now would we?

Oh woops we already did that with the CoD DLC thing, and with people like DarkHalo003 cheering forth remakes in the most strict sense.

Yay to rehash! Nay to new content!

lol agreed..

Lol...

Your serious? Then let me laugh even harder.

Said the guy who said i had no skill and that you could model better than I could, and I couldnt do anything.
LRN 2 TEXTURETHINKBESMARTANIMATEMODELEVEYTHING.
Noob.

GO 279!

And don't use CMT's textures on that thing. The forerunner stuff only looks good in the tunnels and bridges.

Anyway, if ur modelling that, how about you make it interesting? How about, where that blue beamy thingy, where it comes from should be a tunnel.And if you drop down, there is a passage to the side. So, in between the beamy thingy, you jump down, go through, and come up behind ur enemies?

Also, how about...

Wait, is this gonna be sp, with actual waves? If so, at a specific wave, the beamy thingy stops firing,like, for that entire wave, and soldiers can come up through? That'd b annoying.
