[QUOTE=Killjoy;50099894]With scripting, basically anything is possible. An elevator should be a piece of cake.[/QUOTE] Oh ok cool I was thinking of making a Tokyo 3 map. I'm guessing you can't script the camera to work with screens right? I'll probably have to improv a lot of stuff haha Edit: Huh how do I make an elevator out of many objects? It's not working.

However, if you need to make elevators/doors/anything else scripted, check out tutorials on youtube. Its all pretty easy to figure out once you know what you are doing.

Speaking of scripting, that grifball court on the cargo ship was awesome

A bit bummed that Xbox DVR didn't properly capture the awkward crouch humping moment from our arena escapades. May need to hop into the theater and see how that all played out.

Awesome just got the prototype of the launch system from EVA done. So in my EVA game mode it's going to actually require some team work since 1 person has to be in the command center to launch the other players onto the battle field. I guess it'll be like Fat Kid where 1 person is the angel with 3 people fighting it. Maybe 4 people I haven't decided how many launchers I'll have. I'll also make it so that people in the command tower can send the players weapons if I can figure out how I'll post pics of what I have so far when I get home

[t]http://i.imgur.com/nu4tzmI.jpg[/t] frost was an interesting concept but I can't get it convincing. Figured I'd post a picture of why there isn't going to be frost

So who's idea was it to make Forge online only?

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;50101662]So who's idea was it to make Forge online only?[/QUOTE] Wait, are you talking about in Halo 5? I hadn't gotten a chance to get the game, so I wouldn't know.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;50101662]So who's idea was it to make Forge online only?[/QUOTE] Isn't it online only because they use the cloud hosting service to help run it? Kind of like what Crackdown is gonna do.

I just want to make my map ;_;

I'm assuming many of us will be playing Warzone firefight? Lets organize, depending on how many of us actually show up we'll setup 2 teams, more if needed. I'll Livestream Team 1. Maybe teams compete in score or something?

How do I post pictures from my Xbox? I want to show off my map

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;50102371]How do I post pictures from my Xbox? I want to show off my map[/QUOTE] You can upload it to your one drive and post it from there

This is from an hour ago: [thumb]http://screenshotscontent-t3002.xboxlive.com/0009000000b48328-51fe0136-74b8-4242-a785-98b2c2a606af/Screenshot-Original.png?sv=2014-02-14&sr=c&sig=FPHf413%2B5W87sFt2LCfvvH7ll%2BfE2SEh0IvJ2sxI2b4%3D&st=2016-04-10T01%3A39%3A39Z&se=2016-04-10T02%3A44%3A39Z&sp=r&__gda__=1460256279_fd9d2676eb8a3b2d4c2553a8e2bbb5e2[/thumb] When the new ones upload I'll post them. So far the Command Center is done all I need to do is finish the city and launchers. This size isn't perfect but I think it'll do for the game

[QUOTE=overwatch pvt;50099760]It is. Just changed slightly for the new abilities[/QUOTE] Oh, that's pretty cool. Thanks for the reminder.

[QUOTE=overwatch pvt;50102380]You can upload it to your one drive and post it from there[/QUOTE] you can also grab them from [url]http://xboxdvr.com/[/url] Just type in your XB username in the search bar.

Finished Command Center: [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/M4sswrl.jpg[/thumb] and I might have the buildings rise up like in the show I'm not sure though [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/pLGbSyk.jpg[/thumb]

Alrighty done for now: [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/gdXU05I.jpg[/thumb] [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/Z3uqYvP.jpg[/thumb] [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/COsbTb1.jpg[/thumb] It's not perfect but I think it's good for now. I'm gonna add more launchers when zombies comes out.

redid the plasma rifle textures from halo 1 in PBR and slapped them on the h1 model. [t]http://i.imgur.com/Iw9RThr.png[/t] The textures behind this are surprisingly simple when compared to the originals: [t]http://i.imgur.com/h9mgzd2.jpg[/t]

I miss the plasma rifle

Why did they remove the plasma rife anyway? I'd gladly take it over the Storm Rifle.

[QUOTE=ElectricSquid;50104342]I'm curious as to why the texture coloration looks flat - does it not need detail like in the original because it's PBR?[/QUOTE] the AO baking in the original texture isn't necessary for PBR diffuse textures. In fact the AO is included in either the specular or metalness textures used in PBR

[QUOTE=Makol;50104011]I miss the plasma rifle[/QUOTE] At least it's coming back!

Yeah but I've been playing a good amount of Halo 2 again I really want to dual wield Plasma Rifles again. :c

Duel wielding in general needs to come back. Will never understand why they dropped it in Reach when half the damn elites in that game duel wield anyway.

I understood it in Reach for lore reasons(armor not being compatible with dual wielding or something like that). What I don't get is why 4 dropped it.

Reach was when humans didn't understand the art of dual wielding. In Halo 4 and beyond that art was lost because things and stuff.
