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.

http://img79.imageshack.us/img79/7821/lastresortad3.jpg

Let's take a look at the videos, shall we?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUn45x6R4c8
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:

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.

Q. What vehicles will you have?
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 you going to make a Halo 3 HUD?
A. Yes.

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.

Q. Do you have a list of what color equals what MC?
A. Not at this time.

Q. Are the vehicles going to be destructible?
A. Yes.

Q. How are you making the map?
A. I am assembling it in sections, meaning I model a building or something, then I move on to something else. When everything is modeled, I will combine them all in one model, which will be textured and then go ingame.

Q. How far are you on this map?
A. See below.

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

Q. I'll stop then.
A. All questions have to be in the form of a question.

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.

I wish I could help you with this to work on my modeling because it isn't good atm.

heres a preview of my h3 AR:(yes its crap atm)

http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/4320/progresscq8.th.jpg (http://img69.imageshack.us/my.php?image=progresscq8.jpg)

I can't take pics of an updated version because when I prtsc it turns out black and white.
However if you prove me with resources I can help with HUD

Jay2645
June 13th, 2007, 03:43 PM
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.

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.

Jay2645
June 13th, 2007, 04:28 PM
Like I said, it's a WIP.
Also, there really isn't too many polys in there. I'm still working on the models to mess them up and make them look more like ruins.

June 13th, 2007, 04:42 PM
a couple of things i saw:

you cant have distructable vehicles in CE and have them sync.

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

-I have a dual-weilding script that works pretty well and would provide a pretty good basis for this, or I can re-write it to work with your weapon set. The only downfall is it will not sync online, and would require a small, external app that sends the player_add_equipment hsc command over the network. I just down know any programmming languages well enough for this.

Jay2645
June 13th, 2007, 05:00 PM
Yeah, I have already downloaded your script, and I think it works very well. However, it doesn't sync online, so I'm not using it. If it did sync, I would have used it right away.

kenney001
June 13th, 2007, 05:05 PM
its impossible to make one that syncs using the internal scripting due to the lack of commands. However, thats why i suggested someone make a small app to transfer that command.

SMASH
June 13th, 2007, 05:19 PM
Smash he can still edit it to be much better but he is going at his own pace.

And who are you? Seriously, in the past week we've had this wave of noobs flood this section of the boards. Crap.

Also, it's MUCH harder to edit it than it is to model it RIGHT the first time around. Learn to model better before you take on such a big project.

I'd wait until Halo 3 is released. Then use your 360 (if you have one) as a reference intead. Or just make this map for H2V. CE is pretty much outdated. But I think you're doing pretty well so far. ;) +rep for effort

SMASH
June 13th, 2007, 05:29 PM

Why do people here have to give compliments on horribly modeled things? Buildings are not hard, they are boxes, yet somehow, this guy has seemed to mess them up. GJ.

Jay2645
June 13th, 2007, 05:35 PM
Now, how exactly is this building messed up? If you would save that render, and use paint or Photoshop to show me what needs work, I would gladly do it.

In other news, I have (yet another) render:
http://img459.imageshack.us/img459/7176/lastresortbuilding1ut0.png
I've been studying the videos, and I fixed up the model a little. I also added what looks like a power converter, I don't know, but it's there in the video.

SMASH
June 13th, 2007, 05:42 PM
Everything has to be one model, you just can't attach stuff. That might be acceptable to look at or get image in H2V but HCE will spit back so many errors that it'll make you wet yourself.

Looks better though.

Jay2645
June 13th, 2007, 05:46 PM
It is actually one model. 3DS Max 8 has a button that says "Attach" when you are working in Editable Mesh, so I use that and wield the vertices.

SMASH
June 13th, 2007, 05:50 PM
Basically, use the STL Check for a rough guess to make sure your level is sealed as you go along. It's modifier.

I figured you'd just attach and not weld the verticies, but because you did, good job.

Jay2645
June 13th, 2007, 05:55 PM
Thanks for the tip.

I just did it, and there is no errors so far.

Why do people like you have to worry about other people's opinions about things being modeled? I like it while you don't. Whoop-de-fucking-do. Besides, he's got a good spirit for actually doing a project this big all by himself. Just cut him some slack.

June 13th, 2007, 06:06 PM

that tower thing should be 40-50 triangles tops... why spend so much more time poly chopping when you could just model it low poly?
also your objects arent following the sealed world rules.

Yeah, I'm downloading them as I type.

And the object will be connected to the sky, so it would be a waste of polys to make a back for it.

select all. DELETE. that's absolutely not acceptable in any terms, for any reason EVER. you are completely clueless on modeling techniques of any fashion, and it is blatantly obvious. just quit NOW. STOP modeling this map. LOOK for a lot of tutorials on modeling. try www.pixel2life.com (http://www.pixel2life.com), etc, and look up kurk's tutorials. you can't just dive in, you have to LEARN FIRST! this isn't learning, this is like accidentally tying your shoe laces together, attempting to walk and bashing your front teeth out and bloodying the cement before ever figuring out that you don't even know how to crawl yet.

this is just..... ignorance. pure and utter ignorance, and don't you dare ever post something like that here again. FUCKING EVER. wait i mean... that's INCREDIBLE http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b84/falconsfootball07/dodgy-1.gif

Egotistic self-defence
Attempt at accepting criticism, constructive or otherwise
Insulting those who criticize their work

How about you just skip to step 7 and save everybody alot of trouble, especially on your part. This also includes wasted time.

What the hell are you on about? Clearly you don't understand much about modeling, or at least polygons. A polyon = a triangle. Simple as that. A map modeled with quads will be converted to triangles when it's exported. People use quads mainly because they're just easier to work with than triangles, when essentially it's just 2 triangles forming a quad, with the diagonal line hidden.

DOMINATOR
June 14th, 2007, 12:20 AM

No, just be patient and learn the tools first. if you want to be a good mapper learn how to model efficiently. do every modeling tutorial you can find.
Modding "Teams" are overrated and just a big cluster f*ck. well most of them, especially when the only way to communicate is with text.

It is a Halo 3 Map for CE. CE can't render that many polys, are you kidding me? That's like 6000 triangles on one building! I suggest not using edit mesh and using editable poly. And if you are using poly, it looks like you are tessellating tons just to get small (Low Poly) effects in. If that is what you are doing, look up some plane modeling tuts and learn how to effectively duplicate edges and to cut edges as well. Triangulation isn't a bad thing to learn, either.

[edit] BAH! SHIT! I keep on responding to old posts D:

Jay2645
June 14th, 2007, 09:59 AM
I'm actually making very low-poly boxes, deleting the ends, and then attaching them and wielding. That's the way I learned to model, so forgive me if I learned wrong.

There's no 'wrong' way as such, but that is a very time-consuming, wasteful, and constrictive method. Get Snaf to help you get the hang of plane modelling and try that, it's not the answer to everything but it is very versatile.
Basically, plane modeling is win. It makes modeling a whole lot easier, too.


I am just saying just give the guy a chance and some good feedback and maybe he can pull this off.

What he is saying is that he refuses to give good feedback on something he does not see fit for such. If I see something badly modeled, I know I'd straight out say it. Good feedback belongs to something that is well modeled.

And tbqh, an uber high poly structure that should be uber low poly does not a good model make.

Hunter

10 minutes to do that? Dude, that shouldn't take more than 2. I think you're setting your sights too high, do something simpler first.

Okay, more than a couple things bothered me about this post.



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.


<11 images removed for length>

Sounds not compatible with H2V.

More sounds not compatible with H2V

Even more sounds.


I know this was in the Halo CE section, and I looked over all the pages. Simply, you need to learn how to model, and if this is going to be in the Halo 2 Vista Section - the please look over our current limitations, and try to highlight what's realistic in this scenario.


CURRENTLY WORKING ON:
Model-wise: The Beachhead
Sound-wise: Getting 15 or so more sounds ingame.
Biped-wise: Working on getting 3 H3 Master Chief Permutations modeled, each with backpack weapons.

If you are only one person, why work on all of this at once? Prioritize. You need to take everything one step at a time. Not throw a whole whopin' 1.5% of work at us and then tell us you have all this being worked on. I have yet to meet one human being that can do all that at once.


OVERALL MAP STATUS:
Very early modeling.

OVERALL PERCENT FINISHED:
1.5%

'nuf said. :cool:

That is 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:

A loading screen cannot be animated; it has no shader.

That is true, it is basically impossible to animate a loading screen.. Also, why would you wanna waste the time to make an animated loading screen? People aren't going to stare at it for more that 5 seconds :(

Anyway, if you can pull off the HUD that would be amazing. I doubt you could though. The perspective in Halo 3 is basically part of a new game engine.. sort of. Halo 3 HUD perspective actually sort of looks like the MC's helmet, I don't think thats possible in Halo 1.

in all honesty...i fail to see the point in this. really. i mean, for those who don't have a 360 and who won't get halo 3, they'll surely find a way to get their hands on the models from it - one way or another. and once they do, they're just going to make it for halo2 vista or whatever game they please. and it'll be exact, perfect, and beautiful compared to what any rookie modeler could do(no offense).

plus, i've been modeling for quite some time now, and i wouldn't take on this project, not alone at least. and i sure as hell wouldn't make it public this early in. but, if this is how u want waste your time, tha's up to you. i wish you the best of luck and God have mercy on your poor little soul.

And if you think it sucks, don't download it. I don't think it will be done by Halo 3's release, and if it isn't, I'll scrap what I have in favor of the actual models. I know someone who has a working H3 model converter (They tested it during the beta), and is willing to give it to me on the day H3 is released, which is good for me, since I pre-ordered the Legendary edition.

Scooby Doo

i'm not here to stop you, i'm merely pointing out that you may have little chance of success. although, if you make this a 1-2 year project...i've seen some amazing things happen in a year. but seriously, i do wish you luck. you r going to need it, no doubt. and who knows, mb you'll prove me wrong...but rookies comming out with great stuff doesn't happen in this community very often. it takes experiance, not that i have much, but it's just the nature of the business. practice = perfection(almost).

anyways, i suggest getting a few followers to help you model it all. once u have a decent model, people will come to you and ask to skin it for you...people who r good too. but u have to have that initial model that looks very good. if you have nothing to show, no one will follow or help. so take your time and try to learn some stuff from the experiance...hopefully you'll make some new friends who can teach you stuff to help you later.

H3 Assault Rifle-Set up in Guerrilla, works ingame, no new model yet.
H3 Spartan Laser-Works, currently uses the Plasma Pistol model.
H3 Pistol-Done!
Chuck Norris-Wait, he's not in here. Meh, I might put him in a secret room anyway.
Anti-Aimbot script: Done!
H3 HUD-Low-res bitmap done.

That's all I can think of at the moment, I'm working on the tags only, for now.

Also, I will leave the map unprotected. I will also release every tag I have on this thread as they get finished. All I ask in return is some credit if any of my tags goes into use in your map.

Funny story about that... this specific anti-aimbot scripting and technique was developed as a result (I think... I'm pretty sure) of a conversation between me and Kirby where we were trying to figure out how to make it impossible for botting n00bs to play CE maps. One method was to hide AI behind the walls. Another was to attach a biped to the player.

I think that's what Jay did. With a biped and some scripting... we figured out that you could attach something to a player and the aimbot would lock onto that, and make the player spin like a top.

Am I right with most of that Jay?

100% right.
I'm still working out the bugs, it only targets approximately 85% of the time, and that's with no people in the server.
When it does work, the result (As seen from devcam) is both hilarious, and sad because going through their head about then is a number of swear words I'm not at liberty to say.

But I may as well show you the buggy version:

(script continuous antiaimbot
(objects_attach (unit (list_get (players) 0)) "head" biped1 "right hand")
(objects_attach (unit (list_get (players) 1)) "head" biped2 "right hand")
(objects_attach (unit (list_get (players) 2)) "head" biped3 "right hand")
(objects_attach (unit (list_get (players) 3)) "head" biped4 "right hand")
(objects_attach (unit (list_get (players) 4)) "head" biped5 "right hand")
(objects_attach (unit (list_get (players) 5)) "head" biped6 "right hand")
(objects_attach (unit (list_get (players) 6)) "head" biped7 "right hand")
(objects_attach (unit (list_get (players) 7)) "head" biped8 "right hand")

Specifically halos already built in magnetism and auto aim stuff that it comes with, and cross-air locking, that and needlers locking onto it...?

Idk seems like the best approach to it though, very kool idea. :cool:

I want to see if you made any progress in your modeling techniques, the way you were going about it before wasn't very good at all, time consuming, and pointless, because you could model the same stuff like 5 times as fast using different methods. Have you learned how to plane model? Its a very useful technique, not hard to understand really either, course ive been doing it for a while lol.

no u didnt get what I said...

if hes attaching bipeds to the player that will mess with the aim bot, wont that affect auto aim also, because halo wont know that whats infront of it was intended to only be used by the aim bot, unless he attaches the bipeds on command when a player starts using the aimbot... so idk... might not do anything to the autoaim at all, or it could throw off your aiming idk. Other than that id imagine it would work amazingly if done right.

I thought Yoyo was going to use madworkz' mongoose. I find it funny how Jay calls it HIS model, "severely modified" version of Killa's ATV. All I can see is it's larger, has bigger wheels, and some little handlebar...

Trust me, there has been a lot of stuff done to that thing.
Also, about the model, it's just a little force of habit. I'm used to making my own stuff. I will be getting rid of the only thing that is still KiLLa's in there (The main hull) in favor of a more H3-ish one soon, after Yoyorast Island and Archive are released.

Thats a bunch of bologna.™ :fail:

I agree with conscars, there is minor changes from the original. Make your own vehicle, also I think someone at gearbox made a thread about a very nice looking halo 3 ATV...

Aha. http://gbxforums.gearboxsoftware.com/showpost.php?p=1215144&postcount=1

Thats a very good model of the Halo 3 Mongoose, and seriously stop trying to convince us there has been a lot of changes.. Really you're acting like we're blind.

There has been. The only thing that is KiLLa's is the hull itself. No, I am not acting like you guys are blind, you just aren't listening. I'm telling you I made a lot of changes to that thing, I've gotten error after error, I've had to reskin the thing twice, I had to make custom animations for everything from the ground up, I took out the entire suspension and redid it. I'll take a video of it in action for you guys to see.

Ok... tbqh, it looks like you are getting those parts of the model from this:

Which is the ATV from that Desolate beta ver1 map, or something like that. Not accusing you yet, but it looks an awful lot like the stuff from that >_>.

Lol @ Skinning. Why is the seat that ugly color :fail:

Anyway, you used the hog skin for the tires.. But you did it wrong.

Now that FR mentions it, it does look a heck of a lot like the ATV from Desolate ver1 beta map... :confused:

It does... Doesn't it? Weird coincidence. At least I skinned my hog tires and handlebars better, lol.

Now look at the handlebars in that video. They've gotten a new skin, as has the tires. I've also finally gotten biped animations to work.

Wheels don't turn nearly enough. Also whats keeping the guy on the back from falling off when the thing is actually moving? Cause hes definitely not holding on to something.

I don't see a new skin on those tires...

[edit] Archon is right, make him using a scorpion seat animation.

[edit x2] Oh, the skinning. I was just trying to get used to UVing in max, which I will never be doing now that I use Maya (mostly). And... I just made random stuffs in photoshop D:

Ah, thanks, I would have never thought of that.
The new skin is there, I took the warthog tire skin and I added a silver-ish shader to the middle, and I re-UVWed the tires for that to show up.

LOL yeah. Go to google and type in image resizer. See if you can make it viewable at 500x150 pixels, I highly doubt it though.

It's not that hard to do.

Btw your sig is still too big. 400 by 200 - max is 150.

Let this thread die. Please.
I'm in waaay over my head with this one, it probably will never be made in the near future. If someone makes something that rips stuff from H3 Maps, maybe. But until then, no.
Locking now to keep this from being bumped again.
