a definite improvement :P good job

lol cheddars dont worry, i like your tank :3

lol. but seriously if you want it i can give it in you. i have a stack of crap on my mediafire no one uses except masterchief

I decided to once again redo stuff. It turns out that my dad recently bought CorelDraw X5, so he let me use that, and I must say that the results are much better than they ever could have been before. So far I've overhauled the two warthogs and removed the camouflage from the biped's metal:




If these hogs aren't good, I don't know what is.

You might consider remaking textures for the UNSC base(s), or in fact fix them all. They're a bit stretched and bland in the vanilla version.

That involves something with UVs, which involves something with modelling, which is beyond my league, especially since I'm limited to gmax, which can't open OBJ files. That was one heck of a runon.

iirc there was a plugin to open obj files in gmax. Anyhow, can't you just replace them with a higher resolution textures? That wouldn't involve any modeling.

It wouldn't fix the stretching, which I think is the main cause of the low resolution

It would lessen it somewhat; right now that's detracting from the atmosphere imo.

No, it would still look the same with the UVW's right now.

I thought stretched means the pixels are being morphed. I thought that maybe if you made the texture bigger, more pixels = less morphing? Or at least less distracting effect?

idk, never got around to learning UVWing.

Update on the sniper rifle. I made more of the details and moving parts unpainted.

nice :P

That's sweet. Link me up.

A question: Why don't gun manufacturers entirely camo the gun? The metal would completely nullify the purpose of painting it to begin with...just curious, is all.

attachments such as non-standard scopes and optics usually dont come with the gun. painting the barrel of a gun might not work so well, seeing as a barrel gets really hot after firing. painting clips is stupid (read previous posts about it). and it looks better most of the time. now custom camo painting is easy, just grab some leaves or brush and mask the paint layers while you spray.

I'm really liking the progress on this. Get on Xfire some time.

I'll try to, xfire hasn't really been cooperating with me recently.

scorpions.

I would rethink putting camo on the hub caps of the hogs xP Other than that, stuff is looking good.

The tank is corrupted

was anyone else thinking chrome spartan?

That better, Bobblehob?

Si senor :)

Anyone know how to fix this?

I like the new remodeling it's very refreshing that everything is pretty uniformed. What's the differences though to other revamped or modded Rpg Betas?

The level structure itself is unchanged. I added different weapons, vehicles, scenery, and devices, and I also fiddled with some of the tags. The main thing is that this is the first mod of RPG 6.2, everyone else has only done 6 and earlier.

Being a veteran role player of the rpg beta 4/5 era. I'd like to see this map sore high, maybe I'll even rejoin again. I wish you luck on your progress with your map.

:( I'll fix for you later

Here's a little something I added. Hooray for scripting more than 6 vehicles!

try extracting all the unicode_string_list tags from the ui folder...

Didn't work. -_- Does anyone know what this string list is called and which file(s) would reference it?

Edit: PM me if you want to try out the current test stage.

Remove this shader I hate it! hehe

Looks great!

Any chance you could get the prowler working eventually?
To do so, couldn't you use banshee animations, but add more weight to them?
I have no idea how Halo's animation system works though, so not sure at all.
