thats the thing. there are limits to the engine that dont allow you to perfectly replicate things. the battle rifle even. in h3 it shoots a 3 round burst, in ce is shoots like... 3 bullets at the same time using the burst function. even the simple change in speed messes up the balance. in h3 u need to keep your reticle on the body and get all 3 shots in, but in ce they all either hit at once or dont hit at all.

Nope. NO secret room.

Quote: --- Original message by: Jake Anderson
Maybe put a secret room in the map. But it aint really secret. And just dont let people know that its there. maybe put a little door in the side of the Ion cannon or something that leads to a secret room with maybe a stormtropper that rapes everyone once you release him... that wuld be insane. A rabid Storm trooper flying round the map pwning at people. would scare me to crap.

I changed it around, I didn't want it to feel TOO much like Battlefront.

I'll be making some edits to the concept soon, and possibly steal- I MEAN BORROWING some of Quagster's ideas.

It Kiwi's reading that right then you have 9 snowspeeders, 6 AT-STs, 2 AT-ATs, 10 anti-armor turrets, and 9 turrets (Kiwi is assuming anti-infantry), exactly how do you plan to put these all in without MASSIVE LAG?

there is no such thing a gay weapon or a noob weapon. if the designers put it in to use its fun, if people call you a noob for using it, so what, you are having fun and thats the point of halo. not to follow specific rules made by people suchs as "omg AR noob" or something.


HAVE FUN


DONT CARE IF PEOPLE CANT TAKE THE HEAT

Yes, I know, the Flecehtte gun. I was considering it, but it wouldn't be in a fairly large map like Hoth.
Maybe if I decide to do a close-quarters map, like Mustafar.

Also, a new news update:
Alright, I may as well announce this. I'll be releasing more than just Hoth. I'm going for a MP map pack of sorts, 3-4 maps that I will release simultaneously. I have the first one set upon (Hoth), but I decided to let the community choose the others. Whichever 2 (Maybe 3) maps get the most votes will be in the first MP map pack:
-Mustafar
-Coruscant
-Endor
-Tatooine (Mos Eisley)
-Death Star (Land and space)
-Bespin
-Mon Calamari
-Death Star II (Space)
-Tatooine (Jabba's Palace)
-Rhen Var
-Kamino
-Felucia
-Mygeeto
-Utapau
-Korriban
-Tantive IV (Land)
-SSD Executor (Land)

Time to get voting!

What I do is, make a plane. Make it the size you want, then make it tesilated. This is your ground. To do that, right click on the the plain, and slect Convert to> poly. Next select the out side vertices of your base and move them into position of where the layout would be (think birds view). You can use a Master chief or ghost for ref. (doesnt really matter what you use for ref, as long as you know how big it will be in-game. You also can get ref models from this site.) Once you got that done, you can now select the face from the bace. To do that, right click on the the plain, and slect Convert to> poly. again, that is if you are in mesh mod again. Once you have that selected you can now scroll down on right hand side tool bar till you see: Extrude. Now just click and move your mouse up and down to move the height of the base. Once this is done, you start testing other tools. For example: Bevel, inset, MSmooth, and other tools. After many hours and days of practice you can become like other people on this forum. It will all come to you like when you first learn to compose a sentence. I hope this helps, I may be wrong with something that I wrote. So feel free to correct me. After you do all i said, you will end up doing stuff like:



Also, you can then start creating cliffs and stuff.... Like this:



The above pics are modeled by me.....

Just remeber, you need a concept before hand, and you need to keep trying and not give in to any sort of comments like : you really suck. Anyways, its all a start. Hope this helps

Oh yeah, making a box and working from there is nothing to do with plane modeling. That is called BOX moddeling. And you wont really go anywhere with that. By the way, the pics you see above is my first try at 3d :)
