View Full Version : So, uh, what have I missed so far?

Yes, I know there isn't a CMT SPV2 or any new CMT MP maps.

But I haven't played Halo 1 for over five months. I recently built a PC and have just installed Halo and CE.

I made a trip to www.halomaps.org to check out what's new with the CE community. So far, I haven't seen anything "omg must download."

I'll be browsing the archives in a few days time, but for now, anyone want to recommend recent creations to me? Any must-have MP maps with perfect custom weapons? Any total conversion campaigns? Any Halo 3 recreations that aren't half-ass poorly textured rips? Thanks in advance.

CMT SPv2 is still being worked on.

Honestly, don't bother searching. I haven't found anything worthy that's been released over the past few months.

I'm working on an Unreal Tournament mod at the moment.

This movie's kind of old, I've tweaked some variables and added a few more weapons in, including the Unreal 2 pistol and assault rifle. Thinking about adding the shotgun too if I can learn how to do flame effects...

I'm also working on getting the Halo 1 weapons to act as much like their Halo 3 counterparts as possible (with a mix of my own preferences of course)... I just recently finished up the Fuel Rod and am currently tweaking things around.

Wow I just viewed maps.org. All I saw was crap, crap and more crap.

All of them are the products of bad tutorials. That is why I have vowed to never use a tutorial that is not from a knowledgeable source on a specified action. Seriously, I even saw one where the guy didn't even know how to use snaps. Thats just pathetic.

When was the last time Dennis visited and talked with everyone? H2V hasn't received too much attention cause of the crappy editing kit. Someone get Dennis to come over and talk a bit. D:

There hasn't been much. I've worked on making the game look well and run well compared to how old it is. Others have released maps and mods. Ambush is a good one. Basic conversion but fun gameplay.

There are some sexy WIPs but, nothing really worth getting, but hopefully snow grove will hold us over until theres more sex.

Theres that forerunner swamp map that me and geo are working on too.

Ah yes, snow grove. For some reason, I rarely ever find CE servers with CMT maps (no I am not using a cracked copy, I am running from a legal disc) when I go online, which is why my interest in Halo 1 gradually died down.

Muki Hyena's UT mod looks mighty promising. Keep it up, man! A suggestion: Next time you post a video showing off the custom weapons, test them out on moving AI, not stationary bipeds.

If I recall correctly, a V2 of Yoyorast Island was in production. What's the status on that atm?

Sever

Check Yoyorast.com and its forums, or the topic here. There's been many technical and assistance issues along the way, but Yohan is quite determined to finish his amazing masterpiece.

I worked hard on my tutorials, and he wouldn't even put them on his site.....or tell me why.

sunny's valkyre is a showcase for what halo's potentual could be (the grafix are soo sexy and the map screams OMFG have my babies, or gah lense flare blind me!!!).

h3t's coag sux (no really, everything's overpowered)

zteam's working on a campaing and released all of the SP scripts made by bungie.

someone (can't remember names) actually managed to create a fly-by covie cruiser with elites dropping down in front of him in pods. he also had a battle scene with brutes (but the problem was that he's still using old halo 1 dialog).

WOL is working on High-res halo which is a re-detailing of old maps that have either been created by users and were hyper fun (new mombosa) or the stock maps that were made by bungie.

there's sexy renders and pics in the WIP thread

Myuki's UT mod looks promising (he's focusing on functionality, but i'm sure looks will come later)

ambush is pretty fun, but the modern-combat team has yet to finalize their stuff.

MPO is pretty fun too, but the only have 1 maps completed TallonIV (i want to see more, cos it's a fun mod, but saraphim always talked about leakers in his team).

jahrain and some other key ppls introduced content from other games (check the featured maps section) that's sad h2v was a pos and m$ did nothing to fix it, so time to move on from halo (sticking with ce atm).

and that's pretty much what happened in the last 5 months (in a nuttshell).

@selentic snowgrove's old as hell and overplayed I don't want to see another snowgrove server added to the infinity that already exists (that's also the same with the boring noobs that play using the default maps) not saying that they're bad, they're just old an tired (like grampa who goes to sleep alot)

another thing you have missed (i think) is that the internet retards are spreading fast, and are almost as common as aids in africa (sorry if it offends anyone im just using it as an expression)

Affirmative.

I've been lurking around halomaps for a while (and here) and nothing interesting has been produced.


HDoan fanboys, don't read spoiler.
A topic that really interests me is about Doan, how he's gone on a rigging spree (which is cool) and shows the public (which is cool) but then he gets criticism from me (which isnt good criticism (as in it isnt godlike, saying what to fix and what is bad and what should be redone,)) and then blows up and starts to throw his ego at me. Now, maybe I have done wrong (impersonated one person, made two alts), but this was so I could try to talk to him and he adds some insult at the end and insta-blocks me.

I left H3t, and am starting my own mapping team/mod (which hasnt gone anywhere considering that Halo doesn't work ATM.) but it's all good fun.

You sir win a cookie, also FGrain I told you several times just forget about it and move on, if you wish to continue this go to the pm.

EDIT: Also Killa is the one making Delta Halo and CAD is working together with Polar to make The pit from Halo 3.

Well, I'm working on something that is not in the Halo universe at all. It will have custom sounds, vehicles, bipeds, basically everything will be custom, or so I will try. I'd post pics but I'm not far enough to make it worth while. I may need help with the skinning though.

I partly agree with this comment, because as is, it's probably;

A - Never going to be released
B - Take forever to be released
C - And anyways, I'm just doing it for learning purposes. Just like the last 17432058239042308 mods I did.

Frain, just stop, we don't need ,nor care, to know why you do these projects, if you don't have anything relative to say to the topic, then just stop posting

oh and if you haven't known, Rob has left the forums, but is still working on the project, just go down to his site to check for updates



Seconded.
