Jeez I really suck at titles but this is something I decided to do for the fun of it but I made versions of all the default Halo CE maps with ZTeams Halo 3 tags, also has there H2 vehicles and a H3 Hornet all modded to work with the H3 animations.

[This REQUIRES Open Sauce cause the tags used are huge and was impossible to compile without OSs memory upgrades]

how does these maps require OS when there not even 128 mb's?

Unrared they go above 250MB

All of them combined equal up to 4GB

umm yeah a little big for just using h3 tags did you even bother to remove the h1 tags?

Most of the H3 tags used H1 tags but I did remove every instance of H1 tags that were unneeded. These H3 tags are all pretty much direct ports of files from Halo 3 so they are rather large

well seeing as how they are os maps I would take advantage of it and add some features like more grenade types.maybe for boarding action have a version with lower gravity.

I had thought about it, will definatly do it if I decide to update them and get my hands on a working spike grenade

or make your own type if you want.

Tool Pro could have made all of these maps compatible with normal Halo.

yes but doing that can cause many errors and crash halo.There is a reason for the 128 mb cap.

I've compiled 200 MB maps before.

No problems were sighted.

I searched for it and all links are dead

Funny because I actually found a working link on a Halo Demo/Trial mod site.

Dang, I searched google all the way to page 75

LOL.
You just have to know where to look.

Or, what to type...
Edited by Caboose 14 on Feb 11, 2013 at 09:31 PM

Most of the maps were updated, I used a global overwrite to remove vehicles from being loading in maps that don't use them, reduced alot of file sizes, BoardingAction now has low gravity

Maps changed:
hangemhigh
beavercreek
boardingaction
carousel
longest
putput
wizard
ratrace
prisoner

If someone can provide me ToolPro WITHOUT posting a link here then I can see about making .map versions

thank you someone gets that its bad.

Yup pretty much an error on my side, yet I did stat the obvious "ZTeams Halo 3 tags, also has there H2 vehicles" but in the event I did not say who made the H3 Hornet, also unsure who made the H3 pickup icons, then there is the CMT Plasma Rifle shaders, Assault Rifle effect, and a bunch of other things I probably but in there that I didn't even notice.

oh yeah? how come. People always lament themselves about Tool Pro but rarely bring any argument to prove their point.

As I have stated before tool pro causes map error and will often cause the map to crash, there is a reason for the 128 mb cap for mp maps.

just played them

your weapon origins are waaaaay to high and forward, and the gravity hammer impact effect needs work

everything else looks good, but the weapons sometimes clip into the FP arms when you melee

As I was playing this I thought to myself

Why was this made? Another mod of compiled tags that no one will ever play again. You could have easily made this non-os. Just remove unneeded tags and optimize bitmaps, ect.

At leasts some of the stupid (h3) mods include reskinned BSPs

And you didn't even fix the tags

Edited by MatthewDratt on Feb 13, 2013 at 12:23 AM

Thsi is cause of OS for some reason, the weapons look exactly like they do in Halo 3 at FOV 75 but at Halo's default 90 it does that. Agian this was for fun and I didn't really put any real work into it.
Edited by forrestkeller1 on Feb 13, 2013 at 12:41 AM

I understand that it was for fun, and I hate hating on people but respectfully this was rather pointless, especially since things like that can easily be fixed (I had to fix it for Takedown since I used the same Zteam tagset)

Yeah but sadly I don't know how to fix the animations but I can fix up the bitmaps, I can redo them in .map but I'd have to redo the scenarios cause the second I saved them in OS_sapian or Guerilla they are uncompileable with normal tool cause of this error



Edit: I still don't know how to fix most things, been almost a year since I've actually made anything for Halo CE, been hanging around coding for Unreal Engine too much
Edited by forrestkeller1 on Feb 13, 2013 at 01:07 AM

I have yet to see Halo crash because of me playing on a map that is over 128 MB.

I have optimized the bitmaps the best I can and trimmed off 100mb, but it's still too big, 198mb I could trim another 10mb if I could just do the meter icons sadly I can't extract bitmaps with sequence indexes

still a pretty good job, i remember a few guys asking if anyone would do all the standard maps with os, so i reckon they'll be happy with them.

Yup it's impossible to make these in .map cause Halo has a limit fo 256 animation blocks, I removed every unused animation from the halo 3 biped and it's still over the limit (433). It can't be done with toolpro so I need to find a way to trim off 54.19mb from the tag size
Edited by forrestkeller1 on Feb 13, 2013 at 10:02 PM

Well,you might be better off removing some animations that look the same but are for different weapons.

I might since, but I haven't really talked to Jesse in forever and compressing ZTeam's hud is becoming a hassle, it uses up 56.5mb of the tag space

*raises hand* I have. It happens, or else everyone would be using Tool Pro over OS

Quick question (sorry for bump in advance)
(WPC)-ForrestMarkX = forrestkeller1?
A bunch of maps by a similarish name and similar description of project were posted today, and i was wondering if it was you...
If it is, i may have something you may find usefull...
