not sure why that link doesn't work.

As good as discord is, it certainly has it's problems that have manifested.
While not very active now, the Steam modding forum is where I have started checking up on and will be using it as a new dumping ground for certain things so they can be searched and easily retrievable. With it not being community run and having an actual company behind it, much like the Gearbox forums back in the day, I hope it will be a productive business only crossroads without some of the more petty childishness that goes on elsewhere while maintaining high traffic (open carnage is great, but the traffic is low and almost all active users are active on discord too, so not much as far as discussion gets posted there).
I think we should all be resigned to the fact with H3 tools coming the CE scene will probably be even more niche than it is now, but there's still a lot of great work being done that should be made available and viewable to the H3 crowd, which is why I support getting behind the Steam Halo modding community which will cover all the games.

Community is alive and well and better than ever. You just need to be on discord.
Quote: --- Original message by: Tachikoma His reasoning literally boils down to one particular person on one discord server openly supporting a certain movement sweeping the US, to which he has the right to voice his support for. Of course one persons actions totally reflect everyone outside of that server and on here, it really sure makes a lot of sense. He's been spamming a lot of us gore and other shock content on discord and most of us have already done trust and safety reports on him.
Some people are truly zany characters nowadays.
It actually has nothing to do with ME making that decision, the team as a whole decided to do it, which we all support. He's outraged because he's a raging racist and anti semite as evident by everything he's done.
If you are using MEK, it should have an option to decompress them in Mozz.
Quote: --- Original message by: MatthewDrattThanks everyone for their feedback. Everyone is seeming to enjoy it so I couldn't be happier! Quote: --- Original message by: Pepzee So, what's your next project? ;) Haven't decided yet. Seeing if I can invest enough time into learning something else. Probably won't say until I either need help or closer to release. Don't need a repeat of a 6 year wait for a project. Legacies needs you!!!
Working on getting my review video out, all I can tell you guys is this is easily one of the best and most interesting things you will ever see in CE.
Lumoria is great, sure the VA and cinematics have problems, as does parts of the story but it's damn fun and blew me away when I first played it. It's part of what got me back into working with CE after I had quit.
I don't think most the devs would like it much if it got a refined treatment, just because they went out of their way to make some of the visuals look old timey and different. I it was done though, the one thing I absolutely would like to see is the old AI returned, I hate how they changed it and made it more pop and shooty than the original game, and I think it is really detrimental.
As far as the Lumoria hate, I think a lot of it was what Matt said about it being popular, but Lodex really rubbed some people the wrong way for a while, and people decided to crap on Lumoria as a way to get back at him, eventually with it just becoming the popular thing.
This may be the only time people will wish I were listened to.
We'll be handing it out in the discord and getting as many more people into testing as we can tomorrow.
Hypothetically, a SPV4 would be a whole new project. I debated calling whatever MCC rebalancing shenanigans we get into SPV4, but a hypothetical name of Masterz Chief Collection has been bounced around too, although I don't like the project being solely attached to me. But calling it SPV4 would set an expectation it would be like this, which I don't think could ever be really replicated in scope and scale.
Thanks for all the feedback guys, incorperated it into the readme for tomorrows launch.
Quote: --- Original message by: HandofGod From the size/scope of this update it really sounds like you should've called it SPV4. Not trying to troll or anything but from the looks of it you and the team really changed up alot of things compared to SPV3.1
Yeah, but we sort of solidified on the naming system using a 3.X.Y system where X designates a total cache rebuild, and the Y indicates a change to the individual map files. Then a letter indicates launcher/installer version. We were discussing how this is going to change today, as we now can push updates via the launcher and can update maps whenever we want with the click of a button, as well as the launcher version to add new features, and later new versions of Chimera and LUA script support.
I am currently putting together the SPV3.2 credits. As a project that has gone on so many years and had so many people contribute in some way or form, we don't want to be excluded. Please review the following, and let us know if we have forgotten you, something you have contributed, or someone you know.

We also would like to credit the people at Bungie Studios (past and present) for Halo 1, 2, 3, ODST and Reach; Gearbox Software for Halo Custom Edition; and 343 Industries for their continued stewardship of the franchise. Our mod would not exist without them!
It's pretty neat to see so much of this reflective of where we started in SPV1, with basic ideas like adding pistols to T&R, Rocket Hogs instead of Chaingun hogs, finding a role for the BR. Looking forward to seeing what you do in the future with this.
Ah, well if you are interested, I am sure KillaFTW would be able to donate some files from his cancelled city map to replace that ripped scenery. I'd love to let the map live on as part of our firefight set of maps we are releasing, and would love to work with you on that to make sure it's done respectfully to your original content.
Question! How much of the map is using ripped content? As we start working on SPV3 firefight, I'd love to do a version of this with custom assets and stuff we had from Oddball, with your permission. Would we be looking at just needing to replace textures, or is geometry extracted as well outside of scenery.

I just realized you are the first person to introduce the concept of elites using human weapons once the flood outbreak has happened. That really underscores how Halo is in disarray and everyone is scrambling to get off. I think that's a really novel idea, and actually I think the SPV3 team ripped that off their upcoming map, "None left behind".
Sorry people are being negative on the imgur forums man. Every negative comment is probably an alias of Masterz, who seems to poop on any Halo fan content he isn't involved with. Great work as always and looking forward to the finished product! Edited by the4ofusaredying on Jun 3, 2019 at 02:27 PM
Despite you already putting your foot in your mouth accusing us of "stealing" his ideas when he has already pointed out to you we did it first (and by extension, pointing out you haven't even played project you choose to downplay), let me clear a few things up here.
I don't have any alternative accounts, and I don't ask people to post on my behalf to "put others down" or "insult their work". I to see what other people work on, and I like to contribute when I can. I've always tried my best to build up other peoples projects, and generally adhere to a "if you don't have anything nice to say about it, don't say anything". That said, I tend not to look to deeply at any singleplayer campaign mod projects, including SPV3's co-lead dev SOI simply because if I see something I like, I'll want to use it and I don't want to trample on someone else's good ideas and innovations. My lack of comments here have nothing to do with not wanting to see this project succeed, and more to do with not wanting to be influenced or seem disparaging in any remarks on decisions I disagree with. I think what's been done here by Biogoji is great, and messing with the campaign is obviously something I approve of.
As far as me "pooping on projects I am not involved with," it's just untrue. In the past years, I have offered help, assistance, assets, promoted or co-developed things ranging from the UUI, Fall of Mombassa, Takedown, VKMT's work (despite a rocky relationship with Megasean), Chimera, Tempera, Open Sauce, and MEK. We've also at various stages helped contribute assets (or offered) to projects to i01, Contingency, and Iron Hammer. The R&D we did with Moses on MEK also contributed greatly to community wide features and projects, such as compressed animation extraction and xbox bsp conversion (used in HCE Refined). And if you really want to go back into the past, HEK+, the open sourcing of SPV2 content (both tags and max files, the later which were used in Lumoria, and Operation Purgepoint) and I advocated strongly for HEK+ to have Halo CE map support upon when the community was strongly against it.
On top of this, we have encouraged use of our SPV3 release content and byproducts of it (HXE, Placien) and soon hopefully built in map post processing for all open sauce based maps. While my involvement in these projects varies from "essential" to "testing" to "promotion" it's disengenous to think I poop on anything that isn't my own SPV3 or Oddball projects.
While you might want to point fingers at me in regards with El Dewrito, it is a much more complex issue that involved legal issues and concern of guilt by association, as well as dislike not for the game itself, but the attitudes surrounding it.
I should probably also point out if you are active in any halo discords, I've always offered my assistance to anyone with an issue that I can help with, granted it does not become a multi hour project in itself.
Biogoji keep up the great work, and if you ever plan to make this use open sauce, feel free to DM me or shoot me a message on discord in regards to any open sauce issues or if you'd want to add some of our new post processing systems. Also if I may suggest, I'd just post when there are updates here in the thread, people tend to just jump to the last page and don't seem to realize when you update the OP with new info.
Relax about the source code guys. LaikaGlove and I have each others cell phone numbers, so if he ever disappears you have me to annoy him about the source code. It's not like he will one day disappear and be unreachable.
Good to see you back! Awesome work!
You can always change it to not instant kill :X
