[WIP] Sneak

[TheGhost]

Well, this happens to be the first thing I've ever gotten in-game in Halo 2 Vista. It took a long time, and I'm still learning a lot about the new editing kit. Here is the first screenshot I have to give:

This project will be my first map and a huge learning experience for the h2ek. I'll post updates and new screenshots when I have them for you.

[Masterz1337]

Yay for Old Classic. Great Job.

[~A.]

I remember this little guy :)

[Masterz1337]

No, it's sneak. DUR!

[Con]

Looks like it

[spidoman]

Looks awesome, Can't wait to see vehicles in it, and to play it.

[TPE]

No, it's sneak. DUR!
somebody should :awesome:

looks great

Needs moar night sky.

[Kornman00]

Shouldn't we have use the release subforums for WIPs and actual releases? And since the game is actually out now tbh, should is still be called "pre-release" discussion ;p?

Just trying to suggest some organzation :-3

[thehoodedsmack]

Nice stuff, Ghost. I remember this.

[Snowy]

Looks nice :)

[BobtheGreatII]

I loved this map. Now if only we could get the Snow Hog in >.<

[Scooby Doo]

looking good man! i got 2 maps ingame yesterday that look decent. i think the tools are much better than HEK. i mean, i had like 30 errors and it still got ingame fine. hopefully someone can crack weapons and vehicles soon...i hate only seeing like 5-7 options in guerilla. the shaders took me a while to figure out though. and the tags are all spread out :( sapien is pretty bad-ass, imo. i like that it shows your errors for you and everything seems more simplified. tool has come a LONG way, nuf said.

either way, i'm pleased with the tools, but not with the locked stuff. good luck!

good job Ghost! Sneak is looking pretty cool. Can't wait to see videos of it being played.

[Patrickssj6]

Nice stuff!:)

[Digikid]

I remember this gem of a map.

The "room" was funny as heck as well.

Did you get the Snowhog in?

[Kornman00]

Unless he reskinned the warthog, he isn't going to do much in terms of getting a "snow"-hog into atm sadly :/

[stunt_man]

Let me get this straight: in theory, if we found a way to hack shared.map, couldn't we add a snowhog, and then have Sneak reference it from there? Are vehicles even stored in shared.map?

[InnerGoat]

Needs moar night sky.
Looks good with a bit of sun tbh.:cool:

[Scooby Doo]

the funky textures are placeholders that tool adds if your shader doesn't exist. or at least...tha's what it seemed like to me. like i said in another post, they have a shader_collection which contains lots of shaders but u can't open it to see which shaders it has.

in the tutorial, it tells you to use f_im flat_light_scratchy as the material name. and somewhere there's a f_im.shader_collection and it uses the flat_light_scratchy metal texture. it's really annoying when u can't figure out the directories for alot of the stuff in your map, cuz everything is so spread out along many folders. o well...just have to deal with it atm.

Yes you can:

Not that we have access to any of those shaders though...

I always wuved this map on CE. Now, I wuv it even more! Nice job so far!

[Limited]

Sneak peek of sneak eh? I'm liking it :P

will the room still be there? :O

[demonmaster3k]

it's ice fields on h2v nice 1
yea my h2v's a bitch...
i can only run it on ultra low detail and why does it requre so many dependencies, i mean my processor's maxxed trying to handle the dumb game
the box version gets crisper graphics without taxing the harware as much
and the editing kit stalls, giving me some kind of "process is not responding, end process?" bullshit

Do you even know what ice fields looks like? nothing like that lol. Its more like siderwinder. But its not just a steal of sidewinder go play the original and you will relise.

Look nice from the screenshot.

[X3RO SHIF7]

nice! i remember testing this map back in the day with KiLLa and gill and all them old folk

[Cortexian]

That was a damn fun map, won't be the same without a Snow Hog though... Korny! make it work...

[halofreak4567]

I remember testing it too. :P Good times! I wonder if we can find the official beta test server picture.
