in the dealership if you try and take a hog an alarm should go off and truuent of on the walls should shoot at you just an idea and i really hope thoose vehicles can be driveable

dr. funk · Post by **dr. funk** » Tue Nov 23, 2004 8:40 am

ok, the weapon set that is my primary goal is as follows:

Assault Rifle (H1)
Battle Rifle (H2)
Sniper Rifle (H1)
Shotgun (H1)
Pistol (H1)
Magnum Pistol (H2)
Rocket Launcher (H1)
SMG (H2)

vehicle set:

warthog w/ chaingun (H1)
warthog w/ gauss cannon (Lightning, i think)
civilian edition warthog (Lightning)
troophog (Lightning, i think)
pelican dropship (no idea)

banshee (H1)
ghost (H1)

The reason mostly everything is human is becaause the Covenant has not landed in Cote yet, so, no covie weapons. except the banshee and ghost, which I'll say are there for military research purposes

Yo the Funk doctore, is their a error report?
Something their thats bad maybe point out

dr. funk · Post by **dr. funk** » Wed Dec 01, 2004 8:16 am

speak of the devil, i was just going to ask that! as you may have seen in some of the pics, the previous ground texture was just a temporary picture. I'm not sure how they did the roads and sidewalks for New Mombassa, but i'm doing mine as one big texture so that i only need one groundbox (eliminating sewers as well.... did not fit well with gameplay). The thing about the test TIF was that it was only about 1000x1000 pixels, but this gave it a bad stretched out look, even when rendered. The new TIF is roughly 20,000x20,000 pixels, and almost completed. It looks very nice, and i am very happy with my futuristic roads (inspired of course by the E3 Mombassa video and NMC). When I try to add it as a Multi-Sub Object bitmap though, it gives me the error "could not read TIF file" or something like that. Is it the size? ot is it that i just reformatted my comp for better everything and am now using Max 7? Any ideas or opinions are much appreciated! If i do need to split up the ground box into individual road plates, what would be the best way of approaching this?
Thanks, Andrew

They will have created different textres for curves, straight paths, all the turns in the road, then select different faces in the road and give them the correct mapping channel, then UVW map it to look right. Using larger textures will mean that the texture takes longer to load, possibly slowing loading time, but i dont think it will slow gameplay. Must be a huge file size on the image

I can make you some textures...
But is their anything for me?
I'm guessing no...
Well if you change your mind post.
BTW: Is it ok if I call you the Funk doctor?
