CMT Tagset Release 1

What's up?

Seeing as how CMT has fallen apart and all, this seemed like a logical thing to do. So, here it is.

A lot of stuff is in here, but some is not. I'm putting together the source files and tags for a lot of what I did for the mod separately with Dano; hence this release is devoid of the Elites, Brutes, Wraiths, and such. I believe that there are also plans to release some of the BSPs made for the mod. Don't worry, that stuff is coming in its own release in due time.

I CAN NOT WARN YOU ENOUGH HOW IMPORTANT IT IS NOT TO RIP THE ENTIRE TAGSET RECURSIVELY. This may permantly damage your tagset. I also request that you do not make your own maps with the CMT_ prefix at the front. Why? We want to be remembered by the works we've done. While we're interested in what you will do with the tags (and more importantly, what you learn from them), we don't want to be mistaken for your work, nor should you want all your work be thought of as ours.

Enjoy these tags; more are on the way. Expect some of the source files to be coming as well.

-----Credit goes out to anyone else who helped us out but somehow didn't get mentioned above.-----

-----Thanks to Bungie Studios and Gearbox Software for Halo 1, 2, 3, PC & CE, and for allowing us to work on this project.-----

-----Thanks to Dennis for being so supportive of our project, even with all of its accompanied unpleasantness.-----

-----And another thanks to our fans who stayed with us until the end. We're sorry we didn't make it - maybe some of you can finish what we started.----

I cannot emphasize enough how important it was for Masterz to emphasize the bit about not recursively ripping. The CMT tagset is a mire of half-implemented ideas and poor organization, and has a handful of tags that simply make maps break. Use these at your own risk. Hopefully someone will get these and be intelligent enough to make something of more substance than CMT BLOODGULCH FIREFIGHT.

Have fun and play nice with our work.

Heck. Yes. Thank you :)

Here we come... cmt_bloodgulch_firefight.map by Corvette19, Featured map for the next year.

actually was thinkin of usin ripped valhalla for cmt_valhalla

That better be a joke http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsys...smithicide.gif

Only time will tell.

Anyway, this stuff is pretty cool, thanks.

CMT fell apart? Guess I don't have a reason to reinstall Halo or CE...that blows. :golfclap:

sry guys i was makin my CMT CLASSIC MAP and CMT HALO 3 MAP cuz i ripped all halo 3 BSP's.. lets see.. i need a modeler, animator, tagger, texturer, and a tool compiler and a lightmapper to make tihs work and we can be the CMTV2 team.. who wants to join?

RIP CMT. Now all your tags r belong to us.

Give us the tags.

They already did :realsmug:

Sad :C

CMT shutdown? This is news to me.

nah it's been a good while. thread's at halomaps.

not surprised that CMT shut down...not one bit


anywasy now i'll have a reason to go on CE :realsmug:

And now I have a reason to uninstall it. No SPv2, no CE.

I heard they were on haitus but it's lame that they ended.
I remember chatting to Dano while he made the enforcer skins like 3 years ago :v:

Seriously...

I hate to put bad pressure on these guys but damn, they just kinda let CE die for a lot of people. Had high hopes for this mod...so much promise. :smith:

I don't feel they let anyone down, they are releasing their work rather then letting it gather dust.

Thankx again CMT members for all the creativity and inspiration.

It's a pity SPv2 never finished, but it's admirable you guys are releasing the tags- that's something that never would have happened even a year or two back. Thanks for your hard work.

Well, it never would have happened a year or two back because they had every intention of releasing it as a finished product.

what kind of file is this so I know how to deal with it before I download.

.map

hmm does it have teh sparrow hawk in it?

idk download it and check

it says .rar what do I do with that, I'm a modder noob help me out.

.rar is a compression file, like a .zip file. Download winrar to open it.

danke schoen

uh what?

In English, the German letter "ö" can also be written as "oe" when the umlaut is unavailable.

thank you for the translation, most people already understand danke schoen though I had a hard time spelling becuase of the umlaut.

but I have a new delema a few of the tags like the sparrow hawk tag I asked about earlier have issues the debug txt is below. some zteam tags somehow got on my computer and are beyond a pain in the rear. I can't find where they are and what should they be replaced with

I thought it was gibberish.

So he is why my google translate keeps popping up on this page.

I got the hawk working but it flys wierd.

Halo Ce nearly dead...

not to these folks. They refuse to let it die.

If SPv2 would have come out itw ould have survived for me but now there are few projects around here interesting me.

Like CAD's Zombies Project. IF CADZP comes out I'll be good.

hope fully it won't be long to where I'm pumping out stuff of pure awsomeness.

rabt, regarding your errors, CMT's covie turret seems to generate those problems in sapien, as for the other stuff, what tags did you include in map? I can probably tell you what you'll need and what you're missing

don't worry I fixed it. I have no Idea how those zteam effects ended up on my computer much less on how they made their way in to all of my tags but I've been hunting the little basterds down and gettin' rid of them.

:withstupid:



:airquote:Maybe your next door neighbour put them on...

Trust me, that's going to be a LONG time. you can barely get tool working and still don't know how to read the debug, or just beginning to anyways.

Well, HCE is gone. SPV2 was really what's kept it installed.

well keep in mind I started a few weeks ago, and have no experience reading any thing like that, and I'm rather preoccupied by school with all of these excesive homework assignments (comes with being in ap classes). and don't have a garenteed chance at using the computer when I want it, one computer is shared with 5 diffrent people and my mom works over the net. I'm getting some where though with what I got. but while where talking about my lack of experience, can I get a tutorial or something on making good textures, and uv mapping in gmax? better than repeating the same image of grass over and over for the ground and stuff. And if CMT ever decides to come back, they should change their name, CMT is to close to country music television for me, and has no imagination, dispite all they can do with modds, they can't come up with a good name for themselve. but thats tho only critisism I can justifiably make.

What the hell, I only just found out about this :O.

CMT produced some fantastic work, okay the team has issues and we had to wait along time for things but at the end of the day, they made Halo a delight to play.

Its a shame, that snow map was so cool :(

Such a shame...Maybe the tag release will keep halo ce around a bit longer...

I just started messing with this shit, it can't colapse now.

E: Is the brute biped supose to be in the tag relese? becuease theres a file, but its empty. you'd think they'd have the biped since it allready appeared in the relese of the level a10 spv2.

I'll do that :) I've always wanted to be in a mapping team! I can be the Tool Compiler!
