Critic my emblem.

[SnaFuBAR]

kind of vague as to what it is. tell us more about it.

[Con]

too triangly

[TeeKup]

It randomly popped into my head while I was chatting on the Halogrid IRC. I tried to base if off the basic triangle-tower forerunner architecture. The smallest peices would change color to rank and the medium sized would change altogether (havnt made any other examples as of yet). The largets peice would stay a strong silver.

I've been thinking of removing that small triangle and just making it the large and medium sized peice, also altering the primary peice to make it seem less....sharp.

[SnaFuBAR]

Since the other topic got closed, I'll repost some of my work.

[SuperSunny]

Here's a project of mine:

http://i10.tinypic.com/71f5a8j.jpg

Low poly models. Shaders will be tweaked to the best when in-game. I'm not going to reveal much now, but it's a big change to CE and Halo.

Compiled, here are a few WIPS and finished things. 1920x1200 Res.

High Quality Normal Maps and Reflections
http://i15.tinypic.com/7xu00tc.jpg

Tweaked Radiosity + Dynamic Lights
http://i1.tinypic.com/82k6zvd.jpg

High Quality Shaders with minimal FPS loss
http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/3163/42681189ub0.jpg

The tweaked radiosity and dynamic lights are still WIP. Shaders are pretty much summed up as finished, and the HQ bumps are complete.

For the weapon skin, try to stay away from that filter in Photoshop :P (plastic). Work with detail and brushes!

That multiplayer map looks pretty good, I bet if it's finished it would be fantastic!

Katarn, I hate you so much... mainly cause cause I'm just jealous... i mean, dang, that thing is smexy. Did you skin it yourself?

Well, now that the old thread's closed, I had to repost my favorite work (Yes, I play favorites. Sorry, Turf).

Anyway, some new stuff!
My AT-AT is on my other computer, but here's some newer renders of Turf:
Turf Door Pic Redux (There IS still a street, but it isn't an extrusion like I did in my other pic. In the actual Turf, you'll see it SLOPES up to the sidewalk gradually, and this is a bad angle to show that slope):

Wireframe of above pic (Before Poly Reduction):
http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa115/Jay2645/turf_wireframe.jpg
Where the Scarab WILL go (I haven't put it in yet, I'm still debating over whether to make it scenery or part of the BSP):
http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa115/Jay2645/turf_wreckage.jpg

At the moment, I'm working on the street adjacent to the door street. I have the actual street finished, and I also have one side of the buildings finished. On the other side of the street, however, there is currently a bottomless chasm. Many people have died of thirst falling down this hole (There's no bottom, remember?).

You should texture that as though the paint was peeled off from wear and tear around where the edges of the extrusiony things are and the edges of the actual model, rather than have it look like blue paint was thrown at the things with a bucket.

Agreed, you only get to flame him if he pulls a stupid stunt :\

Rain, avoid simple X's when making scratches. Also, they don't have very good placement and aren't really natural looking.

all your scratches are just straight, even, uniform lines. They don't look very good as FR said.

the sides needs work but i reckon the actual sheet of metal looks fairly convincing. Good job.

[SnaFuBAR]

kenney, there's absolutely no need for that rediculous highlight. then there's the scratches, which are excessive. there's overdone, then there's "WTF did you have a seizure on your tablet". i can't even see your base texture. the style of the scratches, however, seems ok. get rid of the lighting, the bad edge wear, and the overdone scratches and show what you've got.

Muki's Unreal Tournament/ETC mod

After about three months of picking up MAX and HEK from scratch, watching tutorials, training myself and learning how to work with the given tools, I've managed to pull off something I'm surprised hasn't been done yet with Halo CE.

I've never seen anybody take the bizzare, unique weapons from Unreal Tournament and attempt to port them over to CE. I took it upon myself to accomplish just that. Here's my progress so far:

To answer your question about the Flak bouncing,

coMV4oHmRkg

I'd say yes.

And to answer your question about a map, I do have a map idea, but I've got no mapping skills.

I'm wanting to eventually remake the map Deck16 from the original UT into a map for Halo.


Unfortunately I don't think UnrealEditor for the original UT can extract levels as OBJs... that'd at least give me something to start with.

Overall, Deck seems like it'd work well as a Halo map; reminds me of Prisoner to be honest... but, again, I've got no mapping skills. So that's not gonna happen any time soon >D

[DaneO'Roo]

Deck was remade for UT3

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/129580.html

Also, keep going. Just try and sex yours up a bit. You don't need to hi def it, just give it a nice new look and feel. Like an aztec theme or some shit.


Or, just forerunnerise it.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

Or, He could Danoize it, that would be even better, :)

[Sel]

Theyre using the same level music over and over too much, thats the same song from Hyperblast2.

Speaking of Hyperblast2, did they remake it into Hyperblast3?

There are some errors in the models that i will fix. But what do you think.

[Roostervier]

Fix the magnum's grip.

[Jay2645]

Yea the flak gun projectiles do bounce.
Here is a bump of a texture i'm working on.

That looks nice, keep going and make the actual bitmap for that thing!

[demonmaster3k]

ummm well, i've probably showed the hell out of these things, but what the hel (no - rep pls)
this one's for you muki hyena (when/if i finish it of course)
what is it? it's the UT3 shock rifle model after ~5-30 min of work

@hunter those h3 weaps are WIN
@muki nice shock rifle effect

[Terror(NO)More]

TLShunter fix that problem on your spiker where your handle at top connects to I guess what you would call the barrel.

[Hunter]

Where do you mean? Open it paint and circle it so i can see what you mean, i have an idea.

[Terror(NO)More]

There it seems a little aoseuibgagh.

I dont understand where you mean, Show me on a picture of the proper Halo 3 spiker the part that you mean, also look below:

[t3h m00kz]

Yeah I think he's saying you should target weld it a little bit 'cause it looks a bit funky. That piece on the back that's shaped like <|>, that is... make a crease down the middle horizontally.

Demonmaster, you shouldn't post things like that until you've got more to show, really. Also, I see quite a few non-planars, which are quite ugly. I suggest you at least fix those before posting another picture.

[edit] Oh also, render it next time.

Might finish this. Make it part of that high-definition halo mod i was thinking of, basically some higher poly models with better skins, only on a few things like the MC model, the hog, and like the ar and pistol/sniper rifle or something.


i can has rep pls?

[Masterz1337]

That NMC base looks awsome.

[Bad Waffle]

the NMC base is about half finished, i need to finish modelling the hallways that lead up to the garage, the entrance to the sewers, the electrical generators lining the walls of the flagroom, the teleporter stuff. Then ima model the garage building and call it a day, then work on that highres hog of mine.

[Jay2645]

OK, the street doesn't look anywhere NEAR as good as the building itself. It's lacking some detail, but the base itself is :awesome:.

The barrels look nice, too. Maybe do a high-poly Blood Gulch or Hang 'Em High or something.

[Bad Waffle]

i was thinking about bloodgulch, yea.

And jay...they're freaking streets. Do you want them lined with the skulls of flaming babies and then paved with chocolate jello?

[t3h m00kz]

I vote for the flaming baby skulls.

[Bad Waffle]

http://www.h2vista.net/innergoat/stuff/dr/no%20u/woahhhhh.jpg

[DaneO'Roo]

Hey Wave that NMC looks :awesome:

Also everyone, is it ok if I make Clock Town from Majoras Mask completely from scratch?


ok.

[t3h m00kz]

YES. I WOULD PLAY THAT SHIT

[Bad Waffle]

no, because you arent pwn like me. One of my favorite zelda renditions. Well, you can model the moon. Fuck the moon, the scary bitch.

Now where is that n64 of mine...

[DaneO'Roo]

Yeah, played it again on emulator after many years yesterday, and thought that if I made the whole town as if all the parts were joined, and even had the guards there blocking the outside doorways, and even show stuff outside the map, it'd be great for gameplay. It has lots of stairs and rooftop action, the different areas of the town and stuff like that.

Also, I'm primarily making it for ut3 as a deathmatch map. I'm going to literally make not only the town, but the outside walls and the whole outside area around the town, with the swamp, the ice plateau, the astronomers house, everything, even the moon.

Though you'll only be able to go in town. It's just so you can run past the town exits doorways and see outside in it's awesomeness. I know ut3 can handle it, cause there are maps with entire cities surrounding them made of real textured geometry.

I'd just delete a heap of geometry and keep only the inside town stuff for the CE version.

[t3h m00kz]

no, because you arent pwn like me. One of my favorite zelda renditions. Well, you can model the moon. Fuck the moon, the scary bitch.

Now where is that n64 of mine...

http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/n64/project64.html Right here baby :V

Also, yeah fuck that moon, jeez.

http://images.wikia.com/zelda/images/c/cf/The_Majora's_Mask_Moon.jpg


Also, while we're on this topic, man it would rock if I somehow figured out how to model and whipped up a Fierce Diety/Oni Link model/biped

http://fox.blog.20minutes.fr/images/medium__Oni_link.jpg

[Terror(NO)More]

Yes I was Talking about that line @TLShunter

[Leiukemia]

jesus WOL, I love it.

[DaneO'Roo]

no, because you arent pwn like me. One of my favorite zelda renditions. Well, you can model the moon. Fuck the moon, the scary bitch.

Now where is that n64 of mine...

I bet you all I could make the model awesome and then texture it awesome. The whole thing.

I'm going into a course soon and that'll also teach me how to model better as well.

[demonmaster3k]

Demonmaster, you shouldn't post things like that until you've got more to show, really. Also, I see quite a few non-planars, which are quite ugly. I suggest you at least fix those before posting another picture.

[edit] Oh also, render it next time.
yea i know, it's just i'm really busy, and it's going to stay that way for a while. i'll do render updates (as for getting a wireframe, i have no clue how to make a decent one)

oh and muki, i just thought the odl 2004 shocker was quite gaudy, bulky and needed a remix.

WOL that base is the shiz, no teles on earth plz, it doesn't sit well with the storylines. earth does not have teleporters (unless you somehow did ruined mombossa with exposed forerunner ruins)
dano, i would love a resurrect on that old z64 mod, if you do that IT WILL be full of win.

[Bad Waffle]

Actually for teleporters i figured out something really nifty, i kinda stole it a bit from half life 2. The bases have a lot of circular geometry in it if you havent noticed, and the flag pedestal will be in the center of a column of glowing energy (think about the energy thing that the index floats in). Basically, the entire base is full of generators, and im thinking that the teleporters will be 'pads' that you step on (complete with a massive set of cords and tubes leading to the top) that you teleport in. It gives me a chance to add some interesting glowy detail :D

[PenGuin1362]

That my friend is what I would I would classify as "faint worthy".

[demonmaster3k]

@penguin OMG, that's awesome (i really love that level of detail)
@wol that's thinking, something like that would look a little more human in design think you can make it so that the player who goes through the teleporter flickers and dissapears as they go through? that way it kinda gets that look of imperfection. humans may be forerunner survivors, but the technology isn't as advanced.(that new mombossa base kinda reminds me of berlin from bf2142)

[DaneO'Roo]

Thats a nice pit.

Every time you step on the Pads Rock you like a hurricane needs to play.
then it'd be awesome.

looking forward to it man :D

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

The pit is looking good, You want me to take reference pics for you?
Just ask for em :0

[Sever]

earth does not have teleporters

Then explain Chiron TL-34. Or Wizard. Or Boarding Action. Or Headlong.

[CtrlAltDestroy]

The only one of those that is on Earth is Headlong, iirc :|

[Sever]

But all of them are maps made in human settings. And where did all of the human colonies in the Halo universe originate from? Exactly.

[Terror(NO)More]

Penguin I don't really see where this map is coming from... Where are the references? Whats it's background?

[Choking Victim]

Penguin I don't really see where this map is coming from... Where are the references? Whats it's background?
Go play halo 3, theres your references. Go read the map description, theres your background. :eyesroll:

[CtrlAltDestroy]

But all of them are maps made in human settings. And where did all of the human colonies in the Halo universe originate from? Exactly.

I know that. ;p I was just pointing out you were implying that all those maps you listed were actually set on Earth due to the context of the quote.

[Terror(NO)More]

I'm working on a map its a underground facility/laboratory that is doing research on, extra - ordinary life. Well what do you know one of their projects got loose and has rung hell on the place down there. What will fate decide for them? Who knows.....!


More to come later...

Why did you have to tell me that? Got my brain thinking.

how about a sound_looping near the teleporter that plays a selection of awesome music?


Thats a nice pit.

:)

mines better

[PenGuin1362]

nah. i like your moms better :)


how about a sound_looping near the teleporter that plays a selection of awesome music?

how about yes.

[Sever]

Make sure that its tagged as in-game music if you do something like that, not just a looping sound. If you don't know how, ask Yoyorast for the tag setup he used in the upper sniper tower.

[Bad Waffle]

good plan.

Song list: (selective clips from said songs, perhaps the guitar solos etc)

Rock You Like A Hurricane - Scorpions
Bang Camaro - Bang Camaro
Round & Round - Ratt
Hangar 18 - Megadeth
Hot for Teacher - Van Halen
Shook Me All Night Long - ACDC
Six - All That Remains

I don't want to cross into extreme heavy metal, or extreme dragonforce, but it might be warranted with this. Perhaps a different song list for blue/red bases?

[Jay2645]

Needs moar Guns and Roses.

Welcome to the Jungle maybe?

[PenGuin1362]

classic rock, blue. metal, punk, w/e floats yer boat, red.

[Jay2645]

Smoke on the Water - Deep Purple

Make edits as you see fit, that was my Zune on Shuffle with all the "extreme" songs taken out.

[Disaster]

hmm..you people have got my mind going to funny places..

1 question would it be possible to make a guitar hero mod, scenary with the notes going past it and when you hit that particular material its impact sound is that particular part of the song? and have a guitar as a weapon and you have to shoot the notes?

and jay you forgot wicked world by black sabbath

[Bad Waffle]

Fine, I'll post a song list:

Make edits as you see fit, that was my Zune on Shuffle with all the "extreme" songs taken out.

perhaps when the lights go down on the city, if we're going into journey.

[PenGuin1362]

when that song plays you should have it switch bsps to a night time version.

[Bad Waffle]

how about i just script it so you can just press a button, the song plays, and the bsp changes?

[PenGuin1362]

I've got some free time tonight, and I'll prolly have the panels done.

[DaneO'Roo]

Dw WOL, It's going to look very smexy If I do it right and model it all right. I plan on having a big bunch of wooden scaffolding in town where that "tower" is being built. Just the sort of detail the artists would have made, had the technology been made available to them at the time. Not going to change anything though, just up the detail of everything and add some stuff where I think it needs it.

[Bad Waffle]

dane, get on aim!

[Jay2645]

I see what you mean, there was a couple of bad polygons.

Got rid of them.

Now that I've modeled a vehicle on both teams, I must say, I like modeling the Empire more. Rebels is a hard look to get right.

[Sever]

So, I'd decided to start small and make some munitions transportation devices, or in other words, boxes, for a map idea of mine. I wanted to keep them simple, yet recognizable, due to their underlying purpose. Some opened boxes will be strewn about the map and will contain a weapon (or two, for the smaller weapons) and ammo for that weapon, rather than just having the weapons spawn at random locations per the norm. I also want to do the same concept with Covenant weapons, but just directly copy from H2 and have them spawn on Covenant crates.

Boxes

Also, while on the topic of boxes, I had some fun in Portal and took EVERYTHING that isn't bolted down (and a few cameras that were) to the end of the level and then proceeded to shove it all through the Aperture Science Material Emancipation Grid. My gums hurt now.

[Sever]

I really like the boxes, save for the pistol one. It needs to be less wide, trust me. Otherwise, it won't look like a pistol case.

Yeah, gotta thin out some planes here and there a bit. Might do the same for the long rifle's box.

[Apoc4lypse]

I really like the boxes, save for the pistol one. It needs to be less wide, trust me. Otherwise, it won't look like a pistol case.

Im surpised u either missed or didnt mention anything about the nonplanar face on the handle... lolz

fix that and I'm happy, they look sexy, now make them have insides and make ther insides sexy that way when ther opened they still look sexy, sounds smexy right.

[Sever]

I'm going to go back and triangulate them tomorrow (enough modeling for today - I just made the pistol and long rifle boxes as thin as I could get them while keeping to my self-implemented constraints, and I still have to fix the feet and foot indents for the other boxes) so there won't be any chance of non-planarity. Three points with different xyz coord's will ALWAYS form a plane! Don't anybody dare argue a 4th+ dimensional setup or I'll bludgeon you with one of my crates. And it won't be one of the light ones.

[Jay2645]

But if we start talking about ANIMATIONS, then we include time, which is a 4th dimensional setup. And if your "plane" has a Z axis, then it is no longer a plane. It is then a Polygon.

[Sever]

*beats Jay over the head with my Flamethrower crate until it breaks*

The handle is still messed up..
FIX IT! :mad:

EDIT: Hey you got the trigger in there now. :)

[Syuusuke]

Oh haha, I didn't see that mauler =/ That's why you need close-up shots.

[Geo]

Just a little treat for all you folks who want to know whats going on in sigma.

Alot more updated than in those pics, more pics soon. (once I find some time to make some good renders)

[Tweek]

what is sigma

[CtrlAltDestroy]

It looks like you spent most of your time on minor aesthetic details, rather than the more important parts.

[PenGuin1362]

i agree. also just seems very lacking.

[Anton]

I like it, I was afraid of the pop up targets when I first played h3. lol.

[Llama Juice]

can you make the grid with targets image fade away rather than just instant gone?... other than that it looks pretty solid.

Also... is that triggered like how a door is? meaning... is that essentially a door with only one moving part?

[CtrlAltDestroy]

Fixed that already.

Also yes, it is basically a door.

[Timo]

Awesome stuff man O:

[Terror(NO)More]

Tweek, there are two maulers in the background btw... So please dont call me stuff.

[Sel]

Added more cliffs, and two tunnel entries.

I really dislike the symmetrical look.

[Sever]

Agreed. Symmetry is not a good tactic to use when making a map. It gives the player more chances to become confused and disoriented. A good level designer knows to give each area its own uniqueness and distinct traits that contribute to the playing area and allow a quick visual reference.

[Sel]

I really dislike the symmetrical look.

It wasnt done with symetry, but Ill mix it up a bit after.

EDIT: Actually, I think it might just give the illusion of that, just from the angle I took the picture at.

EDIT EDIT: Youre right, it is too similiar to each side, Ill change it up soon I guess.

[SuperSunny]

I love the look!

[Corndogman]

also Selentic, maybe you should use different shapes for the tunnel entrances because they are starting to look repetitive.

[Sel]

Hmmmm.

Forerunner stuff is about mastering something through constant repetition, but If I come up with a new shape for that Ill do it.

Its kinda a placeholder right now anyway.

@Sunny: Im gonna take a page out of your book and try to do a new look for it with more reflections, and all the stuff that makes you so sexy :D

no, it's not. and you're certainly not mastering anything by using the clone/mirror/rotate tools over and over.

[il Duce Primo]

Work on te cliffs. Make those bases exactly the same distance away from the center. And start modeling the cliffs in. But don't mairror it. The cliffs are soemthing you should never copy over. And They have alot of poly wastage.

[Bodzilla]

Added more cliffs, and two tunnel entries.

http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l42/selentic/arbiterleikscawks.jpg
Although what you've done looks great, i have to agree with the others that it's too symmetrical.

Another thing that it looks like you havn't taken into account is Size. with a Base that size you'll never find anyone. Think about it once you put in the Other base the same size Plus geometry and other areas between the Base's.
Things that massive are more suited to games with Much a higher speed such as UT3, or larger multi player games capable of having 34-64 players.

[Sel]

Im considering it for a UT2004 thingy too, if I can figure that out.

As for the symetrical thing, Ill delete the cliffs on one side, but keep the base in the same spot, just so its the same distance.

As for that building, its a middle base, it will have a one way hallway and elevator, so you dont exactly have to worry about it being difficult to find people inside, it wont be that complex.

Thanks for all the useful crit.

[Timo]

I think the base is fine as it is, the cliffs just need to be different on both sides, then it'll be awesome :)

[Sel]

I guess you cant please everyone, and Ill get on those cliffs tommorow.

I think the base is good as is, and its not a team base, its a middle base that will control a bridge for the vehicle path.

I guess once I get it ingame I can always adjust for prime performance.

[FRain]

w1bpuGZdqC0
fuckin' awesome.

[Gwunty]

I hate that my hardrive died, I cant show models no more :(. also selentic that looks very good, except that the cliffs on the top of the bases look bad

[Sel]

Im gonna redo where the parts meet, thost parts need a lot of work.

Im probly gonna get the layout finalized as well, sometime.

Too tired right now :hyper:

[il Duce Primo]

Something I'm working on.

[Ki11a_FTW]

pretty cool so far.

[Con]

watch those lines, you've got little gaps where they meet up. Use paths instead so you can easily stroke over it multiple times if you need to redo them.

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

It looks a little blurry in some places, but its good :)

[Terror(NO)More]

EDIT: Good night Ill be back with you all tomorrow

Hey guys I just need your opinion on these for my caverns in my map im making.

[Corndogman]

Terror, i like the first texture better- sphere2

Duce, the texture looks awesome man. im no texture artist so im sure dano will arrive soon, but to me it looks great.

[Ki11a_FTW]

I wish someone would teach me how to texture like that:(

[NuggetWarmer]

LoL. I need to texture it. :Dhttp://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u27/foxymccloud/SpartanLaserFINAL.jpg
