Rambo,
Will you ever finish this map, and not keep adding and adding and adding?
It seems to me like there really is no end to this map, which is why i have been the way i have been about it.
I have become, i dunno the word for it atm, disheartened? with this project, i dont see the end of the tunnel and am therefore reluctant to help. does that make sense?
I would help more if i could see an end, but i just dont.
Edited by Maniac1000 on Dec 28, 2011 at 09:08 PM

Well, yes. There is an end to it. Here's what's left.

    -Residental buildings
    -High School
    -College School
    -Police Station
    -Fire Station
    -Prison
    -Mall
    -Warehouse
    -Racing Arena
    -Bus Stops
    -Widening the roads
    -Reconstructing the layout a bit to allow for a more "city-like" feel
    -Adding in cliffs to the part where it conjoins with the main Blood Creek map

That should be it, for the campus. Then we do the Dynamic Time System for Day-Night; then finalize things and release.

So yes, there will be an end. I just see too few buildings in the campus and too much undevelopment.

Rambo, just remember.
16 PLAYERS IS THE MAX

You're making it way to complex and big for a 16 player game.
Prison, Mall, Warehouse, Arena can all be cut out.

Exactly, it's an overlay animation where it replaces the shooting animation and it'll never be accurate to the center of the screen, the gun will always sway because of the overlays.

I once heard of a "memory hack" external app that allegedly allowed for >16 people to join a CE game. Unfortunately, however, it was never fully tested and the results that were determined, however, yielded that >16 people caused a gathering exception data error. I was, myself, given the app, although I lost it in a crash and loss of data therefore, and I wanted to fill a server past sixteen players, but never got around to it.

Could someone please either...
    a) point me to the application responsible for extending the Halo CE limit

...Or...
    b) Help determine if it's even possible and code a way, even if albeit into Open Sauce *coughs towards Kornman00's direction with a closed-mouth quiet cough*

...And make this possible?

Depends on how subtle the overlays are
and not if you're standing till.
if the overlays are subtle, it wont be off target that much.
The M4 is dead accurate for the first 3 shots before spread makes it a bitch.

e3po was the person that i saw do it.
it didnt work
it would never show more than 16 players in the lobby and when a 17th player thied to join, either it crashed the server or they couldnt join.

Korn in the only hope, and i think i remember him saying that it was a really big job and he didnt want to do it, maybe because the netcode is not meant for it.

I don't exactly agree; as I like the idea, and have used them many times while kicking Rambo's ass on his own map. They work just fine until you start spamming the trigger. It all depends on the base animations. On the MP5 he has theyre horrible, on the M4; I love them.

In consistency, I agree. We'll see how it all ends up.
Like Rambo said earlier today, this project was based as a stress test for the engine, to see its true limits, and to do things that had never before been done in CE, or at least publicly announced.
(D+N system, Working Iron Sights on most weapons, Bloom/OS Shaders, Specular and Normals, things I forgot, etc)

I had a bit of errands to do today so I did not get as far as I wanted with the exterior to the office building, but here are some renders just to show you the work I did today Rambo and company.

You know I was also talking to Sel, right?


Yes I do know. I was pointing out that it's entirely down to personal opinions whether or not this map is better than Requiem, so stop making random comments like that.
K, sorry for having a different opinion.


But your opinion on whether Requiem is better than this or not is entirely pointless. But then I guess it's the OP's choice to decide whether or not you can post that, but still... Please, stop starting random fights over which map is better. I don't care which is better. Requiem is good, and this map is good. Stop comparing them.

And no, I wasn't saying that you're not allowed an opinion. Everyone is allowed an opinion, but just don't give opinions where they're not needed.

This is by far the worst looking map I've seen posted here in a while.


I doubt it the worst one I saw this year Was Requiem, A giant Circle map with a stupid particle effect coming off the Troops, to original and bland, At least this one here is at least a good RPG map, we don't have any of those.

Enough about Sel. He was only stating the graphical side of the map, not the gameplay side.

Then he clearly ignored the fact that it's been stated they're still working on the graphical side. -.-

You could add realistic flags like Marines (red team ) vs Taliban (blue team).. if not added to the map already, like this http://youtu.be/g71og1AlVbA , and maybe flags hanging off the buildings... Just to get that modern feel for it.
Edited by Sciophobiaranger on Dec 29, 2011 at 03:36 PM


Why would they have flags? It's not a war.

Glad to see I have the usual hate brigade of people who have no meaningful accomplishments, experience in modeling, or level design, following me around telling me that my opinion is wrong because they don't share it.

LMAO Did you seriously just imply that if someone has no experience in modelling they have no meaningful accomplishments?
