[Map] Halo 3 Team Public Alpha\Beta 1 (Soul Runner)

Welcome! Thanks for looking at my thead. By now I've probably already been banned, but I'd like to post my public beta somewhere where I can get REAL crit, and not noobs going "OMG SEX IN A CAN FTW!" in halomaps and such.

This beta is meant for testing gameplay only. The shaders and such FAIL on this, and some weapons just plain fail. My next step is to get everything look sexy, and such. This is one of my first indoor maps. It has many bugs, *lighting glitch in 1 room* and errors that will all be fixed in the final version of Soulrunner.

With that taken care of, I present.... H3T_Soulrunner

Also, the only gametypes supported are CTF, Slayer and Oddball.

Holy crap this map lags like hell on my PC. You need a more expansive (read large) test map I was barely able to test this.

Mmkay.
Weapons

Assault Rifle: Looks fine the final part of the reload could use a speed up. I mean why does the hand go that far up.

Battle Rifle: Scope looks fugly and has the same reload problem.

Spiker: Looks fine though you should change the trail.

Shotgun: Ew. Looks bad in general. Sounds need to sync better. I hope this is just a placeholder.

Splazer: What did you do to this poor Splazer? Its missing a big chunk and whats with the green when it fires?

Pistol: Can't really say much for this gun really.

----------------------------
Equipment.

Bubble Shield: Only works half the time. Spiker just goes straight through and so don't regular bullets too sometimes.

Grav Lift: Doesn't even work. If anything this propelled me sideways more than it did up. Lagged like hell if the projectiles hit anything too.......

i get horrible lag to

Oh my god, what did you do to create such bad frame rate? I couldn't do anything because I got a constant 6 FPS.

I didnt do anything. HDoan has a ATI Radeon 9800 pro and he got NO bad fps. I'm running on an ATI X1650 and I didnt have any problems.

And I'm running a radeon xpress 200, think of me...

It was ok, animations are really weird.
Pistol--Needs a faster firing animation, reload sound needs to sync with reload.
Assault Rifle--Reload looks really funky, shooting animations could be better.
Spiker--Melee is all wrong, otherwise its OK still needs better work on the model.
Sniper--Needs a newer model.
Shotgun--Better FP placement, I can see through the model. Also needs better sounds.
Shield nade--It never disappears.
'Mancannon' nade--Moves when you try going on it.
Plasma Pistol--It's allright, not much change but some shader change is noticeable.
