Snafubar finished depoly'ing and fixing the model yesterday and I started unwrapping a few pieces today.
Maybe Delta Halo UI is a bit closer than we all thought.

Should be a really fun, all around map. I improved the model for gameplay as Inferno suggested. What you can't see here are all the cover items.
Snaf can't release a finished map guys, Delta UI is never coming out, don't kid yourselves.
oh it's happening, man, it's happening.
I want to get excited. But there's a tumor over the excitement sensors in my brain preventing that. I got said tumor from the aforementioned 10 times by Timo.
>_>
This mean you're going to start to get back to work on the rest of the Infernal Map Pack? :saggy:
At long last. Correct.Quote:

Can someone with H2V get a high rez video and send it to me or just a bunch of screenies of the section of delta halo where you fight the 2 hunters that come out of the space ship and land on the thing floating in the water. The place right before you get on the boats that go across the water and you do the boss battle.
edit 2-
It's friday. I think a gameplay test is indeed necessary.
I can upload it to the hcel if you need a server.
Unless you'd rather use gaylancers!
I'll play! :neckbeard:Quote:

Can provide server, as Yuki so avidly pointed out!
ohey?
Beta coming soon. Get on xfire and AIM guys.
I just finished running ultra low lightmaps.
Well, that was horrible.
map layout is really bad, had some fun to it though.
Yeah I'm already making massive changes. Adding a few doors and teleporters. Etc Etc Etc.
I can already tell you that it needs some height variance. The whole playspace is all on the same level.
QFT peopleQuote:
ssɐɯ: in my opinion the best maps make proper use of vertical space
I've got something planned.
Changelog:
-Red base removed and moved to the building connecting it to the rest of the map.
-2 doors added to the new red base. The original door was widened to make room for players to actually get through it.
-Teleporters added at the corners between bases. They take you across the map to the symmetrical side.
-Removed 2 useless hallways.
-Fixed left entrance to blue base.
-Added a middle entrance to blue base. So there are now 3 in total.
-Fixed small other things and various model issues.
I need beta testers. We've hopefully fixed the main game play issues and I've also smoothed the flow around the temples a lot.
Ill beta :-3

Happened during the lag at the end, one second I'm shooting inferno (I think) the next I'm on the bottom of the map looking up.
Kicked some ass in KOTH just a minute ago. Won by over a minute :realsmug:
server sucked horribly, use a dedicated next time please. if you don't have one, contact me, I have one you can use that dosent suck.
The map seemed kinda weird in balance ways to be honest. the gameplay wasn't great in slayer, everyone was too close to each other when I spawned, and Koth seemed like the only good gametype while i was there. but seriously next time use a better server for proper testing.
I normally do use my dedicated server but it's broken. When I load any version of my haloceded it says my strings.dll is missing. Even though it isn't...
Re-install CE. None of your maps or tags will be lost.
looks bad.
or just have someone send a stock dllQuote:

I finally got back to delta halo on halo 2 xbox so I can actually do the unwrap properly. :downs:
No credit for my ground skint thing you needed?
:saddowns:
2Pro2Credit.
None of the UV's are final so I didn't mention it.
But yea disaster is pro texture guy.

Changelog:
More massive changes to the map.
Fixed stray spawns and removed spawns that were terrible in the beta.
Lightmaps. Real lightmaps. Lightmaps that make the map look orgasmic even though the unwrap is horrible.
Changed the sniper platform at blue base.
Added delta on top of red base.
Instance geometry? With working collision? And BSP lightmaps? In my halo? What?
Skylights in blue base. It was dark and scary in there. :saddowns:
Moved some weapons around.
Probably other stuff I forgot.
Oh yeah i'll make that other geometry for the middle and the pathways, iirc with lag there is no way up. Also vines.

I know what's wrong its just so damn weird looking. :raise:
INTERDIMENSIONAL CUBE ATTACK
Also. UVW and shader work has begun. The UV's shown in that vid are not final. The next beta will be soon.
lmao thats a funny one inferno :) :)Quote:

Hey, great idea:
If Lightning can hurry the fuck up and do what he needs to do to floodlab (all lighting stuff, ball's out of my park, people, sorry), we release this and Floodlab as the lost map pack. :v:
Don't worry, as per usual the DH UI won't be included :iamafag:Quote:

DAMN IT MECH YOU WHORE >:|
Just becasue I have a bushwhacker as my avatar doesn't mean i'm mech hth
http://zgaming.net/zgshack/images/gc...5oviro3n4p.png <- Hey look, its snaf!
alright alright, enough of that :|
inferno, you still want me to make that piece of scenery for the middle? get me a screen of it. either that or i can make some shit up for it.
I have a picture of it but its small... Talk to me tommarow.
Testing went pretty good, it looks fantastic, and we're doing some more changes to it to enhance it more.
Some suggestions:
1. Slice the level geometry where a pool of water is. Apply a shader with a water material to the parts underneath. It felt wierd with no splish-splash as I walked through them.
2. Put some playerclip at the itty bitty ramps where the small pools of water are. If you try to strafe out of one you get caught on the ramp.
Already did the 2nd thing and I plan on the 1st one. That beta we played was just for game play. The map is much sexier now. As snaf has seen.Quote:

I hope you let someone else choose the music because all the video's ive seen you do for trailers had horrid music.:gonk:Quote:

You can trash any kind of music with logic like that.
Tech is (IMO) somewhat like classical music. You have a single person composing 3, 4 or even 7 or 8 channels of audio. This is even done in real time at chip shows (never been to one but would love to). There is plenty of mainstream tech out there but people don't generally think of it as tech. There is also hardcore tech and people stereotype it as "nerd music" which is bullshit. I have a freind who is a complete metal head who likes tech because some of it is pretty intense and well written and he doesn't trash it for being "nerdy".
