Gallery Topic (post your favorite work, or WIP's)

Sorry about the double post, but I have something completely different. I've expanded on my ODST campaign idea, with some ideas from Huerosam and others stolen "borrowed" from this thread. No name for the campaign yet, though.
ODST Spec. Ops Squad Sigma-Omega-Pi (Alpha and Bravo Teams) SP Campaign


Timeline: Mid-Late Halo 2 to just before Halo 3.


ODST Overview: No shields, but boosted health. Health packs scattered around more often. No Spartans seen at all in campaign. Campaign starts with a squad of 15 ODST Spec. Ops, counting the player. Campaign ends with 2, counting the Player.


Spawn System: When you die, you do not go back to the last checkpoint. Instead, you are air-dropped from a Pelican over the last LZ you cleared. Similar system to Checkpoints, just looks different. Might disappear if scripts don't cooperate.

he can?

well I guess he can do what ever he wants, but the reason people click on this thread is because its a "gallery topic" to post your favorite work, or wip's...

I guess ideas can qualify as work/wips, but isn't this the reason we hate people making topics for them too, because its not considered a wip unless you actually did some work on it other than typing up small poorly written ideas.

idk... all I have to say is... :picsorstfu: because otherwise I doubt anyone will take the time or effort to read it, unless your a published author who's actually offering up a good idea. Otherwise your just some "random" who's throwing down ideas which are probably hard to understand or poorly presented, or just plain stupid.

What I just said applies to close to 90% of the ideas I've ever seen on any CE modding forum, not to mention most of the time, the people posting them do not in fact posses the skills themselves to actually help bring their idea to life.

Am I being harsh? Yes, Is what I'm saying true? Sadly yes...

Trust me I'd love to see all the great ideas people have actually become reality, the fact is it just doesn't happen unless you yourself can run with the idea, or by some chance of luck you find someone willing to take your idea and make it which is rare, and most often the person who uses your idea will want to change it, and in the end he will do most of the work anyway. It doesn't matter if it was your idea or not really to begin with.


EDIT: heh, reminds me of some of the ideas I had back when I modded CE alot... odst spec ops stuff... truth is I don't have the drive to lead a project like that and my modding abilities aren't even strong enough, my main talent is making models, thats about it. Everything else I'm slow at, I might be able to do it, but it takes me forever.

ack, looks like a log-cabin gone wrong. From what I can see, any detail that you have is some extruded face. Keep practicing other modeling methods.

You copied Ganon's tutorial for all three structures. Oh, and those don't look Forerunner at all; I suppose Ganon thought they did, but, they don't.

Are you kidding me? Those look like structures from the first age of empires. How about you do something else besides extrude, resize, drag and bevel.
