SHARING TAGS TO SUPPORT MOTHER RUSSIA

All of my usable tags compressed into an Open Sauce map, with my extras in my slimmed down tags and data folders.

IMAGES:



So, after about 4-5 years of making Halo stuff, I've built up a nice big pile of unreleased content. This is nearly everything I've ever worked on, including collabs and raw map files. There are files named ---note.txt--- all around the data and tags folders, because I felt some insight on stuff was necessary. These go from random comments and background info, to how incomplete or broken something is, so they could be worth a read in some cases.
I put this map together on my test map as a playground of sort, with ALL of the scenery, bipeds, vehicles, etc that i've been involved with. I chose this because you can go in through Halo and see what tags you might want to use, find them in HEKPlus and poof!

SOME THINGS THIS PACK INCLUDES:
- My Flood scenery (+more that I never showed)
- My Flood bipeds (H3/modded H1 Carrier forms, H3/modified H2 Infection forms)
- All unfinished maps (along with data)
- Zombie bipeds (along with the better ones never shown)
- Half-Life stuff
- Some bad custom modeled stuff
- Your mom HHUHEAU
- dozens of rare pepes
- All of my unused data assets
- My dignity
- ???
- PROFIT!????

---------------------------------------------------
NOTES
- Just putting my tags folder in your tags directory WILL NOT MAKE THEM WORK. The /taggy taggington folder is only there to correct any potential corruptions that might occur with the HEKPlus extraction of the .map, along with content that can't be added individually through one map. Many shaders will more then likely not work on extraction because multiple of them are in Open Sauce format.
- The map was built with Open Sauce 4.0 and may(or always) make Halo crash if played without it or on a lower version. Frankly I have no idea, I forgot some of this kind of stuff over my absence.
- You can spawn AI Bots over in the giant elevated square by using the command "ai_place"

Map ai_place Encounter names:

ai_place buster - Places a Sentry Buster from TF2
ai_place robopyro - Places a Robot Pyro from TF2
ai_place h3inf - Places 5 Halo 3 Infection Forms
ai_place h3infnp - Places 5 of the "no-pop" variants of Halo 3 Infection Forms
ai_place inf - Places 5 Halo 2 Infection Forms
ai_place carrier - Places my modified Flood Carrier
ai_place h3carrier - Places a Halo 3 Flood Carrier

---------------------------------------------------
HOW TO USE THE TAGS:
- Download this file and place the map "everythingthateverwaslel.map" in your Halo CE maps folder.
- Download HEKPlus
- Open the map "everythingthateverwaslel.map" with HEKPlus
- Extract all or some of the tags you want. IF YOU EXTRACT ALL, YOU SHOULD EXTRACT THEM TO AN EMPTY /TAGS FOLDER FIRST AND PULL OUT ANYTHING YOU DONT WANT!
- Unzip "taggy taggington" and take out any shaders you need, plus any extra content you might like. If you want everything to work 70% guaranteed, then place all of the folders in taggy taggington in your tags folder.

CREDITS AND THAT CRAP
I don't care if you credit me or not on normal tags, etc. It isn't like I made most it myself. All I ask is you don't take something and claim it as your own. If you work off of something and make something different, go ahead, but please don't just take an exact copy of one of my stuffs.
HOWEVER: If you use any of my BSP models or finish any of my 3 half-decent maps, PLEASE at least give credit that I had something to do with it. Thank you.

As for crediting others: there are way too many people that extra tags might be tied to, so all I can say is all credit for anything goes to their original authors or creators if it calls for it.
HOWEVER: 90% of everything here ties back to Bungie in some way, so, credit where its due, you guys are(were?) awesome.

Some of the people I can think of:
Kirby: H2 Flood animations and source files for H2 Infection form. Also offered to help me with stuff.
Jesse: Letting me contribute to his project because it got me H2 Flood animations (also odds are some of his hud assets are in here somewhere)
BeachParty: Flood HUD or something.
LoneWarrior: Some of his Flood scenery that I modified. Also let me model stuff for his campaign that died I guess.
L28: he is a pretty cool guy :^)
probably more people but belugh remembering things is too much work.

If any issues are found (missing/corrupted tags), just message me on here and i'll resolve them. However, don't message me over something being incomplete or not functioning correctly, I will not fix it. I will only send you any missing tags you need.

Enjoy and happy ripping!

10/10 just what I was hoping for. I am literally filling up around 32TB of halo ce stuff.

Be careful to not make your tags topple over and puke, haha. HEK doesn't like it when you've got too much stuff.

Cool.

Nice to see that old Vindication BSP in there, brings back some really fond memories ;)

@Hat: You are a good person and people will say nice things about you.

Hey, glad to see these tags aren't going to fade away.

Oh and don't forget to upload this to halomaps. This place needs more tags.
Glad to see you.

Yep, did it right as I posted this. I didn't want a phony pack going up.

This pack brings back so many memories, even the christmas stuff is in this, I remember when i was still modelling for that... so many memories.

It makes me sad I kept missing those deadlines. Oh well, the resources are there, it just needs to be completed.

awww yiss

How is he supposed to make money cash out of this if he sells it for free!

Contributing to the Soviet Union requires none of your dirty capitalist money, take for free.

Much obliged comrade.

Das ist ein Ivan.

Etwas für Sie, Ich mag zu tun.

Thanks, and definitely already done.

Mne ochen' nravitsya, lets see what i can do with this

SECONDED


can you be convinced to do a source tag release in any way. it's immensely great that you did this, i remember seeing your content on youtube years ago. my only concern is that HEK plus breaks stuff and would have the potential to damage extracted things
Edited by Bungie LLC on May 5, 2015 at 08:28 PM

The data folder and tags folder(with the important stuff and replacements for broken extracted tags) are included in the download Zip, that was my main priority. It was just convenient for me that way. (and I think others too since people can just take a look at what they want in the map)

Speaking of my Youtube, I basically purged all of my videos. I left a few behind since they are still semi-active but I don't have a reason to keep Halo things on there anymore.

why did you give up on halo ? because some of thos things seem like part of a map

oh God yes

Edited by rododoonceagain on May 7, 2015 at 06:59 AM

I contributed stuff to a few maps but nothing much. Mostly those extra flood stuffs that I never showed off until now.

I don't really have a reason to keep doing stuff, to be honest. I don't like much of the community anymore and so far I haven't really finished any of my projects, so I'm not going to keep this stuff to myself pointlessly. *cough zteam cough*

It's not like it's the end of the world, so I might make a dumb ai map or something every so often, like how I did before I started doing actual custom modding. But life is taking over and I don't have time to work on things anymore.

yeah I have the same thing.
life work girls hehe but I know what it's like I would have been done with the map im making a long time ago. but time it hard is get

I really wish youd do all the tf2 bots.

Too much effort, honestly. Porting just those was super annoying, plus I'd have to make death animations.

well good luck with future ventures goldkilla.

Bumptity.

Here is a few maps in my maps folder I made awhile back. Nothing special really.
It has day and night versions of some old Bg mod I made, Landslide, Oasis, Stuck, BBT-Hang 'Em High, and the old christmas map I made.

(note: the archive is compressed to be smaller then the tag pack itself so hopefully that shouldn't be an issue)

Kweel.
