Wouldn't it be cool if CMT did re-haul of all original MP maps, with the boarding tags and new weapons, and armour abilities CMT MPV3!!

they said numerous times they wont do it, just rip the tags and make it.

CMT has already said they will not be doing this. Many of the OS features in singleplayer don't work in Multiplayer, and they have their hands full with SPV3 already.

I know, but I was saying as a side project when SPV3 was finished. Map design with re-texturing has been done before, and the armour abilities would probably be the most difficult.

after SPV3 the team will disband.

Its not happening.

I agree with you, it would be cool, but it's not happening.

hey guys lets make unofficial MPG5 then

or not

Please spare us.

I actually have been re-investigating what we would do for a MP map again, but don't have anything to share at the moment.

I still have yet to see anything we can really do outside of a pretty map with new tags. AAs, boarding, and some weapon behaviors will require retooling, and in the case of boarding we dont have a system set up that will play nice with vehicles with multiple seats (ie warthog) or we just don't support in general for SP (banshee).

Looking at the Part 1 tagset, you guys would be losing the MA5K and Spartan Laser, getting the DMR, Shredder Particle Carbine, Focus Carbine/Rifle (we may go back to the rifle name), and BPP. The Impaler would require an entire overhaul to work for MP, and the sentinel based weapons just aren't there yet along with the handheld turret.

After SPV3 Part 1 and IF we can find a way to make some AAs, Destroyable Vehicles, and Boarding function properly for MP, I would be interested in upgrading some of our older maps or community favorites.

snow grove remake? :D and wasnt the MA5K cut? whats the change of heart?

Asked this on their forum immediately after reading that. ^-^

I think as good as snow grove it is time another good CTF map was able to get the spotlight.

I always liked Vestige that was later remade as Vestigal in the G3 map packs. From what I played from the G3 maps, those mostly had a problem with just being poorly balanced and a rehash of content rather than trying to do something new with the gameplay.

Then of course there are other awesome CTF maps from the past like NMC, Snowtorn Cove, Camtrack Arena. and some of Arteens MP maps. I also wouldn't mind seeing something like H2CE's Zanzibar retooled as a classic CTF map... and I think Kornman has a bunch of unreleased H2CE maps as well which could be interesting to revisit.

I am not looking to invest many resources into MP if we decide to do. And that's still a big IF.

Vestigial G3 was my favorite to play. I'd be all in for helping with a MP if anything came about, given I'm already animating the weapons that would probably be used so unless more were made I dunno what else I could really do lol.

Community Mapping Team V2?

Me and someone else talked about this. It would be cool to see MPG4 come back or make MPG5.

Good thing there isn't a CMT thread or something

Well you'll likely run into the same problem they did. It's a really bellow the belt move to take someones name just to get attention for your maps. We open source everything we do so that people can learn from and use our content in their own projects, not so people can put out maps in our name.

If this is what people plan to do with our content before it's even out, then perhaps we should reconsider how open we are with things. Which is something I really don't want to do because we always enjoy seeing how people learn and integrate our content into their maps, especially how we have spent so much time reorganizing the tagset and our script setups to make it super easy to spin off alternate tagsets for other users and customize their own global script file for things such as AAs, Boarding, weapon behaviors, and vehicle health.

I obviouslly wasnt planning on claiming im cmt or anything though... lel. Sorta just an unofficial name.
I honestly have no reason to claim i have involvement with cmt. Since i already lead vkmt and honestly i dont think people are that stupid.

Well an unofficial name that looks and sounds like our name is trying to piggyback off us in my book.

You also need to understand that the general public does not pay attention to any of these forums, they look in the server list and download maps, having cmt_g4_snowgrove in the server list on the front page of Halomaps is going to lead everyone to believe that it is an official CMT map and project

they cant do that, they have to make spv20 first

You should really look into having one or two unique mp levels made instead of exclusively rehashed/Remade bsps. If you are heading into mp again, that is. Also a lost cove re-haul should definitely make it unto that list.

I forgot all about that map, I use to love it. There are plenty of great maps out there that don't get any recognition these days, if we do something, I would rather see us use on of those than put resources into a MP map from scratch, as we have some rather extensive BSP plans for SP post-part1. A lot of that will make sense when the UUI gets released.

CMT will become latino mapping team?

I get so annoyed every time I hear that.

Yeah, i kinda get what your saying. I was one of those people that thought community mapping team was the original cmt. Im obviouslly not gonna do this project, but if i do it would either be called vkmt_snowgrove or snowgrove-v3 (someone made a v2 with final spv2 weapons iirc)
Maybe put a readme when releasing the maps (or tagpack, not sure what you guys are gonna do) saying a couple of things people should/should not do?

Given Community Mapping Team was sorta CMT in time, or rather it was like a stepping stone into CMT. My animations and myself got pulled up, Jesse and some others were eventually as well. But yeah, if something like that were to happen again it would have to be named something else for sure.

emm.... okay... but I like more say cmt_snow_grove_mpv3 or 4

edit:

what I'm thinking is that you should redo the original maps and classic maps mods

everyone wants an improved multiplayer and as always, the original maps of the game have been played, and are the first to get tested for mods like bloodgulch

I have a friend who did this


Edited by UHWArby on Sep 9, 2014 at 04:55 PM

Well that's a bad idea for a name, since you wouldn't be able to tell which is being played in the server list. We wouldn't revamp any stock maps.

I see. Im pretty interested. I hope you keep updating on this stuff so we can see if maybe it will happen. Good luck on everything cmt :)

OMG, lot's of replys.:) but it sound like it would be fun too play all these maps with new tags. I mean I played 4's versoin of bloodgulch but it wasn't that good.CMT could do a better version

bloodgulch mods with cmt tags will make everyone happy. especially HMU

Anyone want too try building a .yelo of stock maps? I suck at modding and barely have a clue of what I'm doin half the time so....
