[WIP] Halo Custom Edition Racing/Drifting

[ThePlague]

So, since i've been playing tons of Need For Speed Underground 2, and my hard drive suddenly decided to kick the bucket and I lost everything, I thought to myself "Hey, maybe I should create drifting for Halo. It could be tons of fun, and it's something creative that a lot of people haven't done yet." And so I started working on a few things a few days ago.

Videos:

Vehicles:

Maps:

Drift1:


Track 3:

Concepts:

Hope you guys like what i've got going right now.

You embedded your videos incorrectly.

hmmmm, Kinda cool except thats just darn right shitty having Ice permentantly.

first thing that pops into my head is SP bots driving just set them target paths to each 'Race' target and so on and have a switchable BSP and script it so when you hit the right click on the hog, it swaps the burrent BSP to a BSP with the same model but different ground properties (ice) so you 'drift' round corners. But thats just my first impression theory, probs cant be done, although i know bsp swapping doesnt sync online.

Thanks for embedding them properly mech, it was my first time trying to do so.

And Malloy, I said it wasn't the final, once Dhark has free time he's going to tell me a better way that he told me would work more efficiently then ice as the permenant flooring.

All I pretty much did there was show my idea, now it's the time to get it good. I'll also show some renders of the map I made, to get a better feel of how the video went.

E:PopeAK47 is also making a map for this. He wanted to make a city based drifting map.

Kind of boring eh?

Just a tip: Only put the drifting sections on the curves, as well as just before and after the curves. When it comes to straightaways, try to make it so the 'Hog doesn't drift, and instead gains speed, to make it more enjoyable.

The problem having the whole track ice is you cant get enough speed. To me the speed of the hog is probably less than double I'd want to be driving at. I want to be going crazy fast and have to really push it to drift.

But like you said the idea isnt final.

Yeah, it is slow. I hope the way Dhark tells me about will make it like you actually drift. But, if not then i'll do a few things.

Sounds like a good idea, unique and all that. Maybe the start of the track could be grass terrain then build speed, and certain straights could be grass while all corners are ice?

[Inferno]

My grandma drifts faster than that.

More speed kthxbai.
