Butane123 Think I finally had a good idea for the outside ramps on my map.

...I hate using walls as walkways, by the way

It doesn't look too bad. I don't see an issue and walls are perfect for walkways - there isn't really an alternative in the skybox.

That random spawn point looks a bit dodgy though. If that is a proper spawn move it in a bit. Players often hold forwards automatically when they spawn so I'd refrain from having spawns too close to the edge of the map or people will often walk off the map before they realise where they are upon spawning.

I think the time you devote to making an Elite model would be better spent making a space battle scene.

Having seen "The Island in the Sun," I would also like you to see do some environment on Installation 04 - that would make for an awesome desktop background (as well as the space battle scene).

Very true, I'll take it into consideration.
 
Butane123 said:
Err.... That's spawn point is actually a point of reference for me so I know where one walkway ends when I have it on delayed spawn.

haha okay sorry, never crossed my mind. I'm going to guess you interlock items, I can't be bothered with that mumbo jumbo.

Oh god. Another map design has entered mah brain. :(

I've been messing around with a map for the past week. Something unusual's happened and I've hit a roadbump. Normally it's starting a map that's the tough part and once I get going it's smooth sailing. But with this one I've been struggling to finish. Eh, we'll see if I have enough interest to get past this.

Good luck on your map though.
 
I'm currently massively reworking my previous map. It's now morphed into a spiritual successor to Waterworks. I have one base all but done. Just need to finish the roof to the Banshee garage. I just hope I'll have enough budget for the huge structure in the middle I'm planning.
 
I'm pissed that out of the 24 Living Dead games I played this weekend, only one was Speed Demons (which was pretty fun) and that almost everybody vetoed Creeping Rockets both times it came up. Jerks.

I didn't see the post before, but to be clear:

Any map I make and share out is free for anyone to use, modify, share, whatever. Play it, tweak it, remake it, go for it. Don't worry about crediting or asking me for permission. I don't care. I make'm to share'em; you can do whatever you want with them after I park them in my file share.

I assume that's the case with everyone. Once a map it tossed out into the community, it's out of the creator's control. As it should be.

That's how I'd view it as well. However I don't really know you all that well Ghal (only from what I've read in this thread and from others around the community) and wanted to make sure it was cool with you. Some Forgers might link to "works-in-progress" so some select few can take a look at it, but they wouldn't want it floating around while it's still in "beta" stage for example.

Just thought I'd show the courtesy and ask to be on the safe side. Now if it would have been Butane's map, I would have played it and then slandered the hell out of it to everyone I know. Shittier remake of Narrows...:D

*edit* Oh, nice to see you over here on HaloGAF as well, Tom T CXVII

I'm guessing our Bungie and Microsoft-employed members will make cameos, but I don't want to presume.

YOU GON USE KEELBALLZ?

I have an idea for a map, too. What was that one map from Halo 2 called, it was based off the level where you kill the heretic? :D

I also have an idea for a sweet gametype, but thinking about it more it may not work. But I'll make it and test it and we'll see ;)

Hate using them or just placing them?
Click to expand...
Both, actually. Some weird stigma I have, I guess.

And I have 2 maps in my head right now.

Another skybubble map that's not symmetrical... in height, and one asymmetrical on the main level of Sandbox.

I'm more incline to try the one on the skybubble again. I'm just much more comfortable with making stuff up there.
 
offtopic sort of, but if you are in the Google Voice Beta and in Bungie's home area code (425), the numbers 'halovoyeur' and 'halotouchy' are available, as well as other less satisfying combinations of (425)686-xxxx.

I can't imagine they won't. Surely Luke is going to be at the 1UP Yours panel again, at least.

Just put him on ignore if you can't stand it that much.

Great idea! I just put you on ignore alongside him.

Seriously though, I was but than I realized he's not trying to troll on purpose as he makes effort into his posts and perhaps might post something relevant to my interests some day. I'm still waiting for that day though. What baffles me the most is why he continues to do it as there is no such signature option on GAF and most of us already made fun of the fact that he does post a signature.

Does he honestly think signing his name is leaving his mark on his post? Is he trying to be different/unique? Is he using it to say he is done with his post? I have no idea what goes through his mind. I mean we already know he's posting the damn message as we can tell what his name is on the left side of our screen.

I just want to know what goes through his mind as he decides right before he presses 'Submit Reply' Is it like: "hmmmm, whoops almost forgot my ever so important signature ::signs ~B.B.:: That was close. Wheewww. I don't want them to forgot who's posting the message." Like really? REALLY?

It's obviously this, stop trying to rationalize it beyond that. Just put the attention whore on ignore and be on your merry way.

And dude, your meds.
