BIONICLE & HALO
As a kid, I did not like the popular video games and movies about bionicle that were made by lego. I had always wished there to be an online multiplayer game like halo where you could pick your map and fight as a biological/mechanical robot. Now that I am older and a little bit crazier, I thought I would make a Halo-Bionicle map, if that is ok with everyone.
If you are interested, please read on:

The map will consist of the "Bohrock" base and the "Mata" base. the bohrock base will be a giant cave underground much like some of the scenes from Ridley Scotts ALIEN and Prometheus movies (which I am sure you have seen). The vehicles you can chose from will be rolled up in a ball around a circle of 6 total vehicles. the hatch opens up and closes. The vehicle has a head and arms. It can roll, glide, walk, head but and fire (please google Bohrock for more info).

The other team will start in the tree tops like Ewolks from Star Wars. they can choose flying animal/dinosour "vehicles" or Boxers on the ground which are basically armored mechs.

The island will be as big as the popular "bigass" HD map and will be in the shape of the island Mata-Nui (please google if you don't have any idea what i am saying).

Weapons will include the weapons from bionicle. IF you know bionicle then you will understand: Inika lightening bolt for Spartan laser, sphere launcher ... disks (to throw), mari-gun, maybe squid launcher for needler if we get that far.. and other MOC's (which are custom designs).

If you think this is a huge project and it will never get finished, then your probably right. But I'm going to do it anyways.

Thanks for listening.

UPDATED LIST:
1) Find as many red and blue original bionicle's you can and render them (we will start rendering other colored bionicles for SLAYER eventually) & look up "bionicle skyrim mod."
2) Re design the red and blue base of DEATH ISLAND to be a giant face (Mata-toa face) with red and blue eye pieces. The eyes could be camping spots from the opposing team entered by two tunnels accessed at the top of the statue, and maybe a small one-way chute within the brain of the statue that leads down the nose (like the player was a booger).
3) Design a light house/telescope (like in the MAta-nui online game) on the cliff where the Shades generally are. Maybe.
4) Find your favorite MOC's (lego re-makes) of halo vehicles and render them in replacement of the scorpion, banshee, ghost, warthogs, shades....
5) Find as much HD quality modification you can (i.e.. shades, sunset/sunrise, HD movements...) Has anyone out there in the world made a HD MOVEMENTS MOD, i cant find one.
6) Please post your ideas. Even if they seem ridiculous.

I'd love to see a map based on the original Bionicles. I think it could be interesting if done well.

I will do my best. I could use some help though. the more members we have, the faster we can get to the end.

ohmygod YES
Honestly I'm sure there are a ton of Bionicle 3D model files floating around the internet so you wouldn't have to do much besides the BSP, and maybe FP animations.

Thats what i was thinking. My favorite seems to be the unfinished Bionicle skyrim mod that some russian kids are creating. The models are fantastic as far as HD quality.

these were my favorite ones

Lets start simple. From what I've seen, there can only be one tag for a character (so if we design tahu as the character you play on red team, you cannot play Gail on blue: it will be just a blue colored version of tabu, right?) If Im wrong, let me know. Other wise we will have to choose our favorite bionicle (i vote tahu).

So as a first step, we will redesign Death Island into a bionicle map. Instead of the bases having huge pillar like structures, they will be giant bionicle-face statues with the mouth and eyes as camping spots and entrances.

Vehicles will be hard to design and we might not get to them in the first map. However, I think it would be easy and fun to redesign all of the vehicles to look like lego technique models. Let me know if you know how to export lego models from Lego Digital Designer into Tags.

Ps. I would post pictures, but I just started this account and I cant post pictures for four more days.

You could have it be different if you use open sauce. Choking victim did a vid on it but im not on my pc right now. Im guessing the fp arms thing wont be an issue. Also PM me if your interested in help with this, i want to volunteer some things.

so.much.memories.
The fat rock and the snow one were my favorites.

DXRipper works on LDD to the best of my knowledge.

I just got the hugest nostalgia boner.

I would love to see this done. Bionicle was the only lego toys i ever owned. You have my support!

wtf slayer

Someone make a duplo map for this man.

The answer is yes. you can all join my company. There is so much too be done and we will most likely never finnish. But here is a small list for our goals up ahead:

1) Find as many red and blue original bionicle's you can and render them (we will start rendering other colored bionicles for SLAYER eventually)
2) Re design the red and blue base of DEATH ISLAND to be a giant face (Mata-toa face) with red and blue eye pieces. The eyes will be camping spots from the opposing team entered by two tunnels accessed at the top of the statue and a small one way chute within the brain down the nose.
3) A light house/telescope on the cliff where the Shades generally are.
4) find your favorite MOC's of halo vehicles and render them in replacement of the scorpion, banshee, ghost, warthogs and shades.
5) Find as much HD quality modification you can (i.e.. shades, sunset/sunrise, HD movements...)
6) write more Ideas.

Ps) I will start posting ideas in picture-format when my account lets me (3 more days).

Oooooh well i have my own mapping team... we have one main project and 2 sideprojects atm. I might volunteer one or 2 things though.

What, to the idea that I didn't own many legos or to the fact that I support the idea and would gladly help him if he needs any help.

They have jack s*** on lego digital designer with anything about bionicle. I haven't updated it though either... only 4.3.6
The good news is, there are a ton of lego Halo vehicles out there. I would post some pictures I have found on my slow internet but...you know.
Has anyone checked out ripping the models from the Bionicle Skyrim mod yet?
keep me posted

That you somehow manage to have a capitalization error every other post. You've been here long enough that I'm beginning to become convinced you do it on purpose and it bothers me =(

Edited by Echo77 on May 21, 2014 at 11:24 PM

I'm pretty sure it was obvious that post was in shorthand from the getgo.

Big difference between that and Randomly switching to capitals in the Middle of a sentence without any sort of pretext. or perhaps starting without a capital in the first place with maybe misplaced, punctuation?

I'm working toward breaking into the field of novel manuscript revision and it bugs me, what can I say? Nothing that's already been said. If you want to continue to be an asinine hog about this, so be it, but consider this my personal appeal to Slayer just double check posts once in a while.

If such minor errors truely bothered you that much (on a forum full of posts that contain many, much more noticeable errors), then one would imagine that you would strive to take care of your own mistakes before commenting on those made by another user. If you want people to double-check their posts, double-check your own. Set the example. Don't violate your own rules.

Do i have to play the blue Toa here?

If anyone has done anything productive, please post what you have found.
I discovered a different LDD app called LDraw that supposedly has more bionicle parts but I still don't have access to my high school PC computers to do some rendering.

Anyway, off to poetry class at College! Behave yourselves.

I play thats game xd

Speaking of grammar... lol, yes BIONICLE THE GAME (the first one) was fun, but then again, I hadn't even heard of halo yet... (and Bionicle was awfully glitchy)... I wonder if it's possible to rip some 3D files from that game... :O
Anyway,
I was thinking about the design of the bohrock "vehicle" and I was thinking that it would be fun to redesign it to look more like an actual vehicle, like make the eye pieces into red/white headlights with a pipe tale sticking out of the back.
Or maybe a different design where the windshield/headpiece looks like the top piece of a Banshee.
Maybe the legs fold up backwards instead of "around" that way the feet face outward and its easier to design the bohrock folding movements (I hope I'm being clear here).

Anyway, thats just an idea, we probably wont get to the BIONICLE VEHICLES for a while.

I found a cool website with cool lego designs and instructions (the spartan laser and sniper rifle are my favorite). The website is called "http://www.freewebs.com/halolegofortress/halolegocreations.htm". I know some of them are really crapy, but they all have instructions for them which is what we need if we are going to make them into tags.

Another idea i had was that maybe we could redesign the Toa to look more war orientated. For example, they could have red/blue (or slayer colors) war paint on them in cool designs.
Imagine a Kopaka (the white toa (from the picture above savinpvtmike posted) wearing red war paint. And Gali (the blue chick...she's a girl, its kinda sexist because she lives on the beach...)
Maybe she can be the medic who throws health packs at people like grenades and if someone doesn't catch it in time, it blows up! lol. What do you think?
Edited by PolarMonkey on May 22, 2014 at 07:16 PM

lol I still have these!

but I am curious to see this in halo since Minecraft has made it to halo.

I would like to see this get completed. good luck :)

Thanks! Let us know if you can help!

Maybe more minecraft people can help us. I can trade A+ quality HD bionicle minecraft textures
for that game for A+ quality work in our bionicle halo project. (just like old times)
Ps, I start posting pictures tomorrow!

Talk to your minecraft buddies and see if they can help out. Ive been posting in all sorts of
forums about this project to get the word out.

Bumpy. Nice pics

They're like a Mantis that is 300x cooler.

Get rekd 343i

seriously, enough with all the H4/343 hate.

I am so In love with this project! My favorite ones were the underwater ones, like with Jaller and them. I can't remember what it was called though, it was a long time ago...

Ga-Matoran?

I think it was the Toa Ignika or something.

It was the Toa Mari. What does BUMP mean?
I want to submit some of my lego work, but my parents are being controlling over my internet. I'll have to submit my work when im at school.does anyone have any concerns for the bohrock vehicle besides there neding to be a gyroscope in the middle so the player doesn't get dissy. Keep up with the good posts, we will get their eventualy.
