HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Maybe they brought him back. Read the post by Guardian at the bottom of WIP : waterworks.

thats crap. Halomods is crap. How about you assholes do some research instead of banning mother fuckers on a whim.

I think the time has come for an Exudus to the gearbox forums. Good job way to keep the peace you dolts.

You ever really been hoggin? Thats where you get drunk with freinds and see who can pick up the ugliest girl possible. whoever gets the ugliest loses .. i mean wins.

I was keeping the moon idea to myself .. that has been my plan since hek came out .. but the learning curve on 3dsmax is a little higher than i thought! haha. Thats ok though, cause my moon-map is gonna have enough bells and whistles to destinush itself. I'm gonna build another map first, and tackle...

Make sure you check ignore backfacing on the seclection screen. That way you only select the polygon you mean to , not the one underneath it. I think Gmax does not support Multi-subobjects .. but you only really need that if you are using more textures than you have in the material view port. ITs go...

Pretty good. IF you are having issues with interiors take a look at Mattp001 tutorial. Its pretty informative. Basicly just take a few boxes and delete all the faces and use the vertices to draw the base that you want. You might want to do it under a diffrent file, then import it into the new map. L...

It doesn't flicker when i change the angle in the veiwport .. i mean when i change the angle on the UVW Map. Just weird thats all. I think i got it figured out though ... uvw mapping is probably the hardest part about making a level.

Thanks all.

Viewport is on ... but i might have to render it. Ok i'll try that. thanks.

Correct. So for a base you need an outer box to define the outside, and an innerbox with the normals fliped, as a room or rooms, then connect the two with a doorway. each face has only one direction ... matt001's tutorial is real good for this just wacth it slow and careful. if you get on top of the...

You have to use multi-sub object materials, this allows you to apply one material to an object, but apply sub-object IDs to any face/faces you want allowing potentially each face to have a different texture. You are shown how to do this in the HEK_Tutorial. That is what i'm doing. What i am saying ...

I remeber reading somewhere that you could flag the beach to be ultra slick so vehicles couldn't climb up them. Of course with the rag doll physics of halo you could blow the vechicle out of the water so that they land on land. and then we have a retared vehicle like ollie said. A flaged invisable w...

I kinda got materials to work... but high end uvw mapping has me confused. I can get one polygon (like a map floor) but doing a whole base? once i figure out the systems for the mapping doing things like bump maps or animations become easy, cause all that stuff can be mapped over each other. Click o...

Pretty interesting ... hopefully the greeks gets more advanced weapons to counterbalance the defense benifits of the city. Maybe once side starts with a tank but the other has a base with a few choke points.

I have found that the best way to do it is that once you are done with one wall, turn off backface culling in the properties menu. You can get to the properties menu by right clicking the element you are working on. If the face disappaers, then you might as well delete it and go the oppasite directi...

Deceptoris said wow that sounds pretty cool I'm hoping it will be .. but i'm determined , but kinda noobish so don't get your hopes up. Most of the HaloCE levels sucked balls, so i'm gonna learn my shit before i put some bullshit out. B_StrikeR Said There is a student/faculty 1 yr License - full ve...

Well Godhand the noob is back again .. and this time with questions in spades ... mhahahaha. Luckily for you i am the inventive noob who back in the day used to Hexedit warcraft 2, so all my questions are actually good ones that start dialouge on modding in general , and therefore help everyone. Mes...

My god i creamed my pants. I will take my pathetic attempts at modding and destroy them now, but long before


someone on that forum said

I boned one so hard i covered the sun and killed crops in india.

HAHAHAHAHA.

3dsmax 6 is friggin amazing. I followed kirks and mattp001 (thanks)tutorials and i am so impressed with how much power that program has. I am well on my way to building Seige, one of the first levels to use tweaked weapons. Think of an open feild , surrounded by walls with 8 or 9 small castle like o...

Shadow Said should i make the box in 3ds max 3x bigger? or does that matter I think that the material when applied with the material editor will automaticly strecth out and macth the edges of the polygon you apply it to. i Took a 128 X 128 bit map from danger cannon and used that as a floor for my l...

Wow those models rule.
