You can probably expect a load of Reach/Halo 4 style map within a few weeks.

(I don't make those sort of maps, in case you got the wrong idea)

please give me some good news, I need something to take my mind off Microsoft and their stupid excuse to add tax to addons now

Weird, I've sent a few, though it was a little while ago and never got a response. I guess Ill just post it here, it's not critical information. Rerout doesn't have the right music for us, it's all Firefight Descent music that he has along with the music I already have.

So I don't know what you want to do here, if you have the time to go and find other music or reuse Firefight Descent music, maybe even ask the community and see what they come up with. But right now the map is dead silent, and that's not good.


No, it must be done by Dec 31, 2013, incomplete or not, it's going to be released by or on that date.

I have other things I want to do, and furthermore this could turn into one of those forever going projects, and there's been too many of those already.

REEEEEEEEROOOOOUUUUTTTTTTTT

when its released, you could make an edited version if its not finished and release it whenever

Nope, not you. Why you? There are dozens of teams working on those maps.

Okay, the dozens figure is a bit too high and unlikely but there are teams outside of Halomaps that rarely, if ever, post in these forums. I'm sure there are a lot of teams just like TMM out there.

Don't forget {NP}, although I'm uncertain if they're an actual mapping team. If they aren't, then there's CMT to think about.

I don't know any teams that are dedicated to tag-making.

I wish i had an tag "tag" team so when im finished rigging vehicle functions and i need to start on physics, i can just go "tag, your it" :)

I don't get it.

Getting some more work done on this thing this weekend.



Prepare to kick down the door this December.

The elite's animation could be improved. Instead of just flying backwards it could flip upward with force.

I should probably do that

It looks a lot better in-game, that's just a low-quality .gif.

fail dratt!

i'm pretty sure dratt didn't do the animating

Firstly, for the animation. What i'd do is import the pod and biped into the scene, animate them together, and then save two different versions, each having deleted one set. So you have one with the biped's animations, and one with the elites, but they both sync up because they were made together. Also, try making the door change direction when it comes in contact, you also want it to loose some force. If you're using max, the easiest way to do it would be to set the scene up for ragdoll for the biped, add the door as an object that can collide, and make the first frame of the animation moving the door forward quickly, then use reactor to generate the rest to make it look realistic. Just some suggestions.

Secondly, will the pod be a vehicle that you start out in?

finally a bit'o'news on this map, is moose still in the mix?
EDIT: m-16 assaults animating from ce3 was pretty boss

In 3DS Max the door didnt clip. Dratt failed and made it do so >.>

come on baby round 1 lets go.

Hey guys,

I'm getting to work on implementing music in this map. I've decided to include some original songs from Bungie to go along with the remixes.

What I want to know is what are your guys top 10 original Bungie songs you'd like to see? It can be from any Halo game.

Also what are your guys favorite songs from Firefight Descent, 10 of them will make a return as well, so let me know your favorites there as well.



Thanks.

how about impend?

or the near end part to the halo 3 warthog run where its pure piano... LOOP THAT THING! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_pAa9252Uo 4:44 to 5:53, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGnfna20t0A 9:29 to 10:38. or just make the song and keep looping that point over and over and over afterwards... love that part over any other halo song segment.

or the ark cutscene intro music.... lol if u can remix that

or anything from halo 2 like in amber clad, peril, heretic hero, follow, etc.

also under cover of night, and maybe devils monsters for the fun of it

is there still an option to disable music just incase we want to listen to music from our music libraries or so on?

Pepzee definitely surprised me when I got the news of how far Portent II had discreetly progressed since CE3. He definitely deserves some recognition for sticking with it even when others, such as myself, couldn't lend a helping hand. Yay Pepzee!

Finally, I am reaching a time period which will allow me to step back in and deliver testing and feedback for the project. Let's see this thing through!

awesome! great news guys!

yea but you gotta love that piano part

Please add in Halo 4's arrival, as you have done in Descent. It was probably the greatest part in H4 in my opinion, and does really well with the mood of the fight.

does anyone remember the music from the first fight in cairo station?

Oh yes, that 'Halo4remix' of Arrival from Descent was awesome too.

i know i do, i'd love to see that in this map!

and how about the halo 2 main menu song part that is also when chief jumps off the cairo. sounds like hes on a mission, remix that! :P

I know these aren't from the original soundtracks, but anything from the cancelled Halo OWaW OST.

If they aren't original, they are remixes, and mostly faithful ones at that
