Why would they have all the graphics done before they build the game? They need to make sure the engine runs fine before they start making better models and stuff.

It'd be bad if they built a game engine that couldn't handle their content.

Xbox reads the same disks as 360 I thought...

Well I was using this raw dump program(Back when I wanted a modded 360)
It said that the dumps of the game discs could be up to 10 gigs.
Maybe it was a flaw or my mind is playing tricks on me.

Also to the person about the graphics. Did you see halo 2 at the E3 Demo. The graphics were not nearly as good as the halo 2 graphics that were released.

because if they start out with graphics they know what they will be able to fit with the graphical engine they're using. because if they build an entire game and change the graphics it might be too big (due to the fact dvd's only hold 3-7 gigs basic) not saying the file would, but there'd be too much/too detailed to load, hence go for the graphical look first, so you know what you're dealing with and don't have to cut back (like in halo 2 how they didn't put in the mongoose and such)

Jean *Halo2Rules* pointed that out to me earlier...kinda odd.

Xbox 360 Discs hold 9.6 GB. They are dual-layer DVDs. The hand is still Halo 2. Shows you how much they still need to get finished. They aren't near completion yet, people need to understand this is pre-alpha. It's pretty much like a modded Halo 2 right now (not really, but hope you get what I'm saying... I guess)

Wow, I go to work, and come home to find two pages of contraversy. So, for the record, I did not plan on releasing my swamp mod to the public, it was just somthing I was messing around on, and I thought it would make for some cool pics. I never realized, that my one little picture could cause such an up-roar. And, as for the question, "is it ripped or not?" Not Ripped, my brother-in-law modeled it, he just graduated college with a degree in CAD-CAM and Architectural Design, a simple Mongoose model was well within his capabilities. And do you think pig-farker is the only person in the world that has the ability to move bones and markers? I think not.

But yes, the skin, is from Yoyorast Island, I myself converted and applied the skin, and my bro UVW'd it for me. Yet, I never planned on releasing this beauty, because of the constant scandal which surrounds this mythical beast. So please, no more flames, just enjoy the pics

Could I get a poly count on the model please?

Literally, I can see absolutely no differences at all between that model and the widespread ripped one. I'd think if he was modelling a Mongoose, it would be based on the new Halo 3 version, not the old, unused, unfinished one.

that's the shotty. they just moved the flashlight to the side. look on the back of the blue spartan.

and T Beezie, liars have no place here. that's ripped. people, compare these to those screenshots:

Let me guess, your brother modeled that one too?

Don't try to pull shit over our eyes, we know that it is ripped; until you give us a wireframe and polycount with a UVW layout to PROVE that it is not ripped, you're just making yourself look bad.

Strange how bungie would call a wall "blow-upable"

The guys at Bungie have a good sense of humor.

Exactly. We don't give a shit where or how you got it, but lying about it being ripped is something that's pointless, and quite frankly, a completely transparent statement.

galvination · Post by **galvination** » Wed Nov 15, 2006 6:17 pm

I personally, can't tell if it's ripped if he posted another close up pic of it i could tell, but it looks to me IMO that it's not ripped ebcause the springs on the front axl have pieces which connect it to the underbelly of the ATV and his are just solid bars, no second peice, and the pieces that rotate the wheels in the front just look like blocks not like the pieces that turn. IDK I really can't prove anything either way...

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Wed Nov 15, 2006 6:18 pm

You can't see that piece because it is inside the wheel.

galvination · Post by **galvination** » Wed Nov 15, 2006 6:21 pm

You're right, I'm guessing when the warthog wheels were re-sized they stuck in or something, because it looks pretty much ripped, meh who cares he's not releasing no problem..

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Wed Nov 15, 2006 6:24 pm

I have a problem with lying, not with the possession of the model. It would be much better to just man-up to having it, rather than making up a story.

T Beezie · Post by **T Beezie** » Wed Nov 15, 2006 6:39 pm

I'm no liar, and I have no reason to make any of this up, why would I? What would I possibly have gain from posting a freekin picture? I do not have any modeling apps on my PC, we did all of the work at his house, I just helped. We used those old renders, shown above, for reference. we've been workin on it since before the H3 ATV pics were released, so all we had for reference, were the old renders. But, I do have these,
