Re: Missile Pod for Halo CE !
The layout however is good. I always liked the idea of an uber large city map and this does a good job at transferring it. Do some skinning tutorials and try and make the buildings less...plain. Try using cityscape as a guideline. The roads could use more detail and material in the way. It just feels to wide and open, unless you start putting some air transport in it's just too big for a warthog or ghost. This has potential for vehicles like in extinction and what not if you maybe doubled it in size. It would also work for smaller vehicles, except it would need to be twice as small. Also, don't ever ever ever ever use custom weapon tags unless their CMT's, they're the only people I have seen to take a Halo weapon, re model and design it, put it back into the game, and have it still look like a halo weapon. That goes for vehicles too.

Re: Missile Pod for Halo CE !
what i want to know is do people pay snafubar to say everyone's stuff sux? iv never seen a positive post from him about anything. (apparently he does all the helping off the forum. i dont contest that. that doesnt change the general trend of his posts)
the model its self is a bit low res. it is obviously not a final piece of work(for an experienced modeler, but everyone =! experienced modeler) . it needs better texturing, maybe some detail maps. but in game, who is really going to look at it with a magnifying glass?(anyone who posts an "I would" response gets a :fail: from me) who cares if it isnt exact? this is CUSTOM EDITION. it s supposed to be different. otherwise we might be sued for copyright infringement:XD:
EDIT: oh man lolz. i just read the straight 10+ page argument of snafu and rossmum vs flyboy and *randomstupidnameX* i gotta ask ross and snafu, do you realize that you argued for 10 straight pages with a 15 year old and some guy who probably joined this forum just so he could respond to this string? when your rep is as high as yous guys is, you dont need to defend yourselves to anyone.
Re: Missile Pod for Halo CE !
bump :<
jaul, don't fucking grave-dug old topics man. let the dead rest in fucking peace.
Re: Missile Pod for Halo CE !
As soon as Snaf/Tweek posts, the general opinion is changed from nice/looks good to yeah, it's kind of meh/needs more detail. Or the more experienced modelers just always arrive late in topics.

honestly the original intent was to comment on the rocket pod but when i see stupidity in its most pure form, well, i just cant help myself.
and you, my friend, should practice what you preach. there was nothing to be gained from replying to me.
Re: Missile Pod for Halo CE !
Learn to help yourself. Bumping is breaking one of the rules, i dont care what you want to post,even if what you have to say is meaningful, dont bump. As Tweek said, let the dead rest in peace
Re: Missile Pod for Halo CE !
Wow, even I think you should have let this die. This was what, 2 months ago?
Although I do agree with some of your points, you should just leave it alone and don't start anything. The escalation rate of conflicts is much more here than at gearbox. :P

Negative.
I believe I've said about one million times before that bumping or necroposting is fine IF THE POST ACTUALLY CONTRIBUTES TO THE TOPIC. If someone is digging through old threads to bump them with just "bump" or "lol dongs," then that's spam and is wrong.
Posting in existing topics that are relevant to what you want to ask/say is always better than starting a new one; it keeps the filesize of the topics table in the database down.

SnaF is an experienced and seasoned modeler; he goes/went to school for it. The same goes for Tweek and Rossmum, but less school in the case of Ross. They go around to test these new modelers by giving them full on criticism. If they explode and tell them to shut the fuck up because they spent hours working on some turd that they call a weapon, then it goes without saying that the person shouldn't be practicing 3D art if they can't handle the crit.

Custom != Crap. Getting people to make sure their work is 100% before it is released makes for more quality product and less bugs that need to be kinked out in the long run. While this is just a crappy old game and modding is is nothing more than a hobby, this is where you lay the roots of your habits. If you wish to get into game development, it's better to have habits that produce almost-flawless work that needs little redoing in future builds in a reasonable timeframe, than to crap something out in like an hour, and spend the rest of your valuable development time fixing things that you couldn't be assed to do right the first time.

I doubt there would be anything gained from bumping this topic that's older than you.
