Wow, I gotta come back here more often,
Whole new spiffy, shiny forum.
I like it.

Anyway,

Here's some pics from my latest map for Halo.
It's still a WIP, there will be those red spinning warning lights & stuff like that.

Hmmm... very clean. Looks maybe like a spaceport or something.

oh, I'm sorry, guess I should explain for the none Halo folk,

It's styled after the Pillar of autumn which is a space ship featured in the first SP level.

Are you building it using the actual prefabs used in the first mission? Either way, looks great.

no, it's built completely from scratch in GTK rad then converted into max.

Looks great, and I can tell that it's under construction, and it's not just the level! I'm surprised nobody here has truly featured an area in a level that's "under construction". The concrete sections of both the wall and the floor look like they've only been recently set, and are awaiting finishing (such as wall panels or a shiny metal flooring)

Exactly what I was going to say.

A style (Indoors, hallway, less open spaces) change from the reason I like halo, but it looks good, either way.

Yeah, 75% of the maps being made are standard, outdoor, too big to be usefull, vehicle maps.

I've always been a big fan of close quarters combat.
POA is one of my favorite SP levels.

It's a figure 8 with 4 hallways like I posted with the cryobay in the center and similar styled flag rooms at either end.

He means the textures on the floor look like they're from a construction site, as if the final floor hasn't been laid down yet.
2004-09-12, 12:56 PM #17
ah, ok.
well it's not under construction, it's a space ship so it's all metal.
I didn't make any of the textures they're all from halo.

it definalty ain't for JA, i don't have JA, but I did build it in GTK and I want to put it in Elite Force however, I hit the max leaf faces error which, to my knowlege, can't be cured w/o making it less detailed which I don't want to do.

If I ever manage to get it into EF I would be willing to let someone port it to JA. The cryobay in the center might be good for dueling.
but that won't be happening any time soon.

New shots.
I think the geometry is done now. baring any proformance issues.
Made the light in the hallways alittle dimmer.
the flag rooms and cryobay are still to dark though, which is why they're not shown here.
I think I got the scale right but yall let me know if it still looks off.
