    *WIP* H3 Last Resort

    Well, I'm not sure which forum to put this in, so forgive me if this is the wrong forum.
    OK, so this is the thread for my Halo 3 map, Last Resort. It wasn't in the internal beta, but it is the Halo 3 version of Zanzibar.



    Let's take a look at the videos, shall we?

    NOTE: If you don't like hearing the same annoying whistle over and over, backed up by musical accompaniment, then turn off your sound.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WljegcnKrCs&eurl=
    I'm using those two videos for reference.

    OK, now that you know what it is, let's get down to business:


    MAP FEATURES:
    Everything in Zanzibar.
    2 Halo 3 ATVs on the beachhead.
    A secret room.
    Updated Power Generator room.
    Halo 3 Gadgets.
    Halo 3 sounds ripped right from the beta.
    Halo 3 MC.
    Halo 3 Assault Rifle.
    Halo 3 Icons for the weapons.
    New Halo 3 armor Permutations.
    Whatever else I can think of.


    PICS:
    Newest at top, oldest at bottom.

    My new H3 HUD. It's a cross between the H3 Multiplayer and H3 Singleplayer HUD. I'll be using it for Last Resort.
    It's based off of the HUD here:
    http://www.h2vista.net/forums/showthread.php?t=2086
    I used that as a source template, and severely modified it. I need to rotate the Assault Rifle and Grenades about 1 degree.

    Well, I'm starting over on that building. This time, I have far less polys. However, I'm not too far, as I managed to get ten minutes of modeling in.
    NOTE: I will not post any more screenies of the model until the model is finished.
    Here's my progress:

    The building so far.

    Frequently Asked Questions:
    Q. Why are you doing this map?
    A. A: I want to, and B: I like Zanzibar.

    Q. What does Zanzibar have to do with this?
    A. Last Resort is the Halo 3 name of Zanzibar.

    Q. Is there going to be dual wielding?
    A. Yes, if someone can make a good script for it.

    Q. What weapons do you plan to include?
    A. Everything you can see in the video above.

    Q. Are the Halo 3 Gadgets going to be in there?
    A. Yes. You can use them with the flashlight.

    A. All the vehicles that you can see in the Youtube video.

    Q. Are you going to make a custom pickup icon for each weapon?
    A. Yes.

    Q. Can I help you in any way?
    A. Unless you have links to any good content, no.

    Q. Are the different Spartan armor sets going to be in there?
    A. Yes.

    Q. How will it work?
    A. I am going to be using something called a Permutation, which makes it so if you are red, you are the guy with the really big visor, if you're blue, then you are the Stormtrooper-looking guy, if you're green, you're the H3 Master Chief, etc.

    A. See below.

    Q. Are these questions getting annoying?
    A. Yes.

    Why would you post this at only 1.5%? To inform us someone is working on it?

    wow, ambitous goals. i would try to concentrate on making a solid map first, then adding everything else in, but your the modder, not me.

    Re: *WIP* H3 Last Resort

    i aint the best modeler but 2 me the top pic of the building looks very very basic and looks like you have just selected faces and draged them up and then extruded out the stairs, im not nockin u but i dont like the look of these models.

    But good luck.

    That looks pretty good, for an early model. I might use it. Or I might make my own. I don't know.

    The stairs are actually about 10 boxes with the exact same dimensions, which were attached together. The building was also just a bunch of boxes which I put together and wielded the vertices.

    I posted this at 1.5 percent done because I want to have people voice their opinions on the map so far, so I can have the as close as I can to the real thing.

    Those are LOL aweful. Sorry, but too ambitious for a beginning modeler. I've been modeling for years and I wouldn't take on a project this big yet.

    GL, though, if you think you can do it.

    Re: *WIP* H3 Last Resort

    Still aweful, lots of chamfers, too high of poly for CE, too smooth, it pretty much isn't very good :3. Try smaller projects, you won't finish this one, and even if you do, it won't look anything like Zanzibar.
