A huge request!

Post by Karnage »

I was wonder if I could get some modelers out there to help me with something, and no this isn't going to be like my other request, im not dumping this.

This is what i need made:
-------------
Halo:

Ghost
Image
Image


Banshee
Image

Wraith
Image

Warthog
Image
Image

Scorpion
Image
Image
-------------
These will be vehicles to ride and they will need firing points (whatever you call them).

This is going to be for my new major mod, a sequel to my Halo Mod Beta with new weapons and probably new maps.

Someone actually made that Ghost thingy for SWBF1. I remember seeing it in Zero Editor screens. Can't remember who it was though? :cry: Might try searching the BF1 boards.

Actually I did try converting a 3DS model banshee into MSH since I don't know how to make models and I did post some Zeroeditor pics.

Well said, Ace. >.<

If you realy want this done, I'm going to take a random stab and say that the only way that this would be accomplished would be if you did it yourself.

No offnese, but this is sucha major request I do not actually see this hapening at all.

It's an awesome idea, really. But dude..

I love Halo. In fact my online name (for the trial version) is 'a Banshee' (a Banshee killed flagetyburbett. You get the most awesome kill messages) Love the game. I would love to see something remotely like it in BF1. But, heh...

Here's an idea. If you can get your paws on the models from the game (maybe Halo CE has them availible, dunno muh about CE) you could either convert them or ask someone to convert those. But Asking for models.. :wink:

If the time frame isn't too urgent, I could possibly create meshes, though I suck at creating textures, so I couldn' t do those. Also, my trial version of XSI 5.1 expired, so you'd have to have someone else run edit flags and export them.

If I could get these models in 3DS or OBJ format, could someone convert them and get them to work in-game?

-EDIT-

If not then that sounds good t551t551.

Maybe someone could add the texture.

I could convert them... AS LONG as it's legal to do so, and I want proof that it's legal.

PS: You would need to give me the texture too, cuz I DONT wanna texture them...

Hold on my offer for a day or two, my 4.2 MOD TOOL is broken. It always says that another program is using the batch. If I get it working, I'll post it here.

Halo CE modding...

Post by t551 »

Yes, Halo CE is free to anyone with a valid Halo CD-Key, and supports modding. The problem here doesn't really lie in the avility or ease of converting the model, but in the lega ramificatons of doing so. Microsoft doesn't even really like people making halo mods, and might prosecute someone who actually ports the model from one game to another. You could try to get the express permission of bungie, but doubt that's going to happen.

Even if it weren't illegal, many filehosting websites reject ported material.

Besides, models from Halo, especially the covenant ones, will probably contain too many polies to effectively port them. I mean, sure, you could have one friggin' sweet ghost... but a model constructed along the poly guidelines of SWBF II would be more efficient for memory, if a little less sweet.

It's a virus, BKDR_RBOT.EBH. It's locked me out of access to cmd.exe and regedit, as well as batch files, hence no MOD TOOL. I'm not sure how long it wil take to get it off.
