A Halo UTM? ARE YOU JOKING???!

[GhostThruster]

Who says it needs to be done quickly? That first map I uploaded was an Alpha (obviously), I was planning to continually update it, like I've said before.

My boys did a good job with a most of the models, I was the only one who sucked shit (see the Covenant infantry and UNSC vehicles), mostly because I am the only skinner.

 

[anarchianbedlam]

The resource section is not the place for "betas" or "alphas" that is what these forums are for. The resource section is for finished approvable projects.

 

[GhostThruster]

No, I'm pretty sure there's a thing called updates... Most of the maps are beta.

 

[anarchianbedlam]

the update button is to fix maps that have been rejected. But you should not submit a resource knowing full well that it is still in it's beta testing phase. I cant believe that i have to explain how the resource section works.

It's like if i submitted a skin to the skin section that was just a stick figure and saying that I would "update it later and improve it"

 

[Superz_Ze_Man]

We just release something everyone worked on for a while (some more than others lol D and we already have people bitchin at us for trying to add to the community. Jesus, can we all calm down for 1 second and figure out what needs work and what doesn't...

 

[GhostThruster]

I shall update the Progress post!!!

 

[Forgotten_Warlord]

Isnt a UTM? lol

 

[Gausslander]

It seems you are in fact joking because the map was rejected.

 

[-Peper-]

A HALO UTM? ARE YOU JOKING???!
Yes.

No, it was rejected because GT can't hold his desire to upload ripped MasterChief.

 

[Gausslander]

Yes.

No, it was rejected because GT can't hold his desire to upload ripped MasterChief.

Ripped from halo wars, correct?

 

[GhostThruster]

Alright, -Peper-, I need you to create a new ODST Helmet.
Ref pics:

This time, make sure you add in those side-things. If you need more info, ask.

 

[-Peper-]

Can i edit the existing?
EDIT: Fuck, my comp goes laggy again and i don't have ms3d anymore. This gonna take long.

 

[GhostThruster]

Nope. Just start a new one. Try to make it as similar as possible to my drawing.

EDIT: A preview of the new Brute model. Revilo is making the armor for it, and I am texturing it. Not finished.

 

[anarchianbedlam]

The helmet looks good. now the rest of his body needs armor. If you want to keep it low poly though a good texture can work wonders

 

[GhostThruster]

Yes, I think I will work on the Shoulders next. Do you know any way to merge Geosets, so I won't have 50 of them?

 

[Forgotten_Warlord]

Yes, I think I will work on the Shoulders next. Do you know any way to merge Geosets, so I won't have 50 of them?

if ur making it in milkshape merge groups with same material

 

[GhostThruster]

I only use MdlVis and Magos.

 

[Forgotten_Warlord]

hmm I'm not sure then

 

[trexgod2k7]

I think you should make the missiles for the covenant weapons that would be great.

 

[Fingolfin]

I have a needle missile that i could post. It's basically just a pinched cylinder with a ribbon emitter.

 

[GhostThruster]

Yeah, if I ever get around to it, I'll make the missiles. However, I'm not that good with Particle Emitters, I may have to request some from Fingolfin And yeah, It'd be great if you posted it.

EDIT: The Brute has a new chestpiece! Next shall come shoulders.

 

[Forgotten_Warlord]

awesome got a hunter?

 

[GhostThruster]

Yeah, but it sucks shit. It's in the UTM map.

 

[Forgotten_Warlord]

oh, well I might make one if that one is shit

 

[Magnet199]

keep it up bro, this shall be the best map ever

 

[Gausslander]

The Elite model is pretty dreadful--those satyr animations just don't fit.
And, overall, there's a lack of models and textures for this pack. That and there are too few doodads for this to even be considered for terraining.

 

[GhostThruster]

Good news! -Peper- has found a whole stash of Halo meshes! That'll speed things up alot!

 

[-Peper-]

Good cops always win.

 

[Hevenblood]

I saw the models that were donated, and I was just wondering what progress has been done.
Also, what has been done with the brute model?

 

[GhostThruster]

He's only given us 5 models as of yet, and I think I will only include the Scorpion, Cobra and Elephant. I shall get Goolygot to wrap them, I will texture them, and Superz will animate.

The progress so far is the same as before. Revilo was inactive for a couple of days, but he says he will work on the Brute again.

I think we really need a new texturer...

 

[Hevenblood]

I really wish I could texture

 

[Dromlexer]

Are there some fitting blood effects (also effects will appear when a unit dies) for the Halo units?
Just a thing to raise the reality in a in-game use.

If not so I have a list here:
Brutes: Like as the human blood but a bit darker
Grunts: Blue in light and dark variation
Jackals: a bit dark Purple
Humans: Red as nromal... there are some light and dark variations too.
Elites: Same as the jackals
Buggers (Yea, I mean the flying guys): Dark green
Hunters: Organge in both light and dark variation
Flood (all these forms too): Dark brown and green with a light variation from middle.
Robotic: None, just only sparks and small parts
Huragok (Engineers): A mix of red, purple, blue colours in light and dark variation (OBS: The mostly of the Huragoks explodes in death)

Or just skip it if this is a waste of your time. =P

Thanks to: Halo.wikia.com

PLONG!: Edited at the flood.

 

[Hevenblood]

That would be cool.... but a lot of work, and as you can see, not much of the members or really active at the moment.

I, and the people watchin this, would like to ask,
What is going on!? It has been inactive for several days.
So.... What has happened?

 

[GhostThruster]

Nothing, Revilo hasn't responded. I told him to work on the Brute's shoulders.

 

[Revilo]

Sorry for not responding, life and homework caught up with me.

If this looks right ill mirror it.

 

[GhostThruster]

It looks good dude! When you mirror it, can you make the big pad and small pad of both shoulders into one geoset for each shoulder?

 

[Revilo]

Try this

 

[Hevenblood]

yay progress!!

 

[N00B5600]

So, now that the core models are done, will you move onto other ones like seraphs and longswords etc?

 

[GhostThruster]

What? No!
The core models aren't done.
I want to remake the models we already have, and we haven't even done the Brute yet.

 

[Revilo]

I want to remake the models we already have, and we haven't even done the Brute yet.

Speaking of which, is there anything you want me to do on the brute ?

 

[-Peper-]

How if we redo the Marine, and giving him another animation. (As his body is really crappy now)

 

[Dromlexer]

Are there any Greande throw animation?
Just a idea... To help you guys.

 

[GhostThruster]

@Revilo: Yep.

@-Peper-: Can you do anything as of now?

@Dragoinc: Probably I'll include it as a 'Spell - Throw' in most of the models.

 

[-Peper-]

With my comp fixed, i can do anything. But the Marine's original mesh can't edited. (I mean it's same)
We must find other model, edit it, and wrap it.
How about if we wrap kim's MC with ODST texture?

 

[Forgotten_Warlord]

If anyone wants to make the Gunner attachments for my warthog using Kim's spartan/Master Chief, I got her permission to, I just haven't had the time to make them yet, if no one wants to make em, I'll make em eventually lol

 

[-Peper-]

And me now minus MDLVIS (won't work on my new comp) and milkshape3d.
If we want to make a cool model, the model must based from a cool one.

 

[GhostThruster]

@FW: I think you better do it When I update, you and Fingolfin will have a Special Thanks section

@-Peper-: My main priority is the Brute (I want to get rid of the easy ones off the list).
Next priority will be the Jackal. I will soon give you the task of making with me the Jackal (will be based off Satyr, and have a new head).

 

[Hevenblood]

I still wish I could model

 

[-Peper-]

I must admit that this is going VERY slowly after the rejection. I guess we can't take it.
