Halo 3volved = 1337, Killtrocity = not 1337

Killtrocity was a great mappack, there is no reason to make a statement like that. Besides, as was stated before, they are completely different.

My friend you have to acknowledge the difference between criticism and his pointless bashing. Nothing he said was in any way collective or helpful.

all it is is a couple of new bitmaps and some good models

Yes as a matter of fact it is just Bitmaps, Models, And Meta. When you come across a mod that is something other then this you let me know cause ive yet to see any. I cant image what u could possibly do without these things besides a BSP conversion or standard map edits like adding water and fog.

i think all of killtrocity was better than this

Again neither helpful nor relative to this post/mod.

basically if you want halo 3 this bad like get a 360 and halo 3
and if your broke then steal one
and if you dont wanna steal one u dont want it bad enough

Once again neither helpful nor relative to this post/mod. Nor good advice in any way.

all this is is a waste of time

A waste of who's time? Your time for coming on here and bashing it? Cause those who worked on the mod don't think its a waste of there time, nor does anyone else who's posted here. Tho not being a member of Acemods you certainly couldn't be speaking for us.

who wants to see halo 3 in halo 2?

Now thats a just a stupid question....

i would rather see something that was never seen before like a skatepark mod
or a boat race mod

Great, go make one.

if you can do models like this then theres better things to be made rather than trying to replicate something that you will never be able to duplicate...

Really? like your skateboarding idea.....? ha... And btw, its very possible to replicate Halo 3 uses Halo 2... No not the graphics. No not every button it uses... But we can dam well get everything else pretty accurate thats why its called replicating it. Not Copying it.

Why would anyone even bash a mod like this? The ones that do don't know what modding is...
The mod is great, it is pushing all that we have learned from modding into halo 2 and into a mappack. This mod piece right here may not be a mappack but it is a taste of what to come. Sometimes you just want to strangle someone, but of course that is what video games are for!

Less statements about who cant give criticism or who's overreacting more constructive criticism and opinions. Let it go, this is the internets, not the elementary school playground.

Personally i find the map names hard to see in the UI when you change maps because of the bright background. Maybe make the map names darker in future updates so they're easier to see.

I <3 Yamagushi, =] and YeaThis Mod I Have Played Over 50+ times and still havent got bored of it =]

Okay; I'll take this opportunity to bash this mod

All the skins for the weapons with a few rare exceptions are way to light, also despite some "un-likable" side-effects there should be more shine on certain models. Bumpmaps are lacking.

Sounds: some are not there, some stop working, and you know >_> some just are not riiiight...

Gameplay: WTF happened to let the pistol get that powerful AND remain dual-weildable >_> I mean you can't have BOTH!

New vehicles... they need to be weakened! I don't mean speed edits or anything but some things I have noticed are that the mongoose is VERY heavy (And to easy to get splatter kills). The mongoose can drive over a trip mine without dying >_> LOL, I pwn nubs that way BTW :p

Whers da new cube map for the banshee HUH >_>

Mauler... needs to have a dampener set on the range of the projectiles, or at least more of a spread. Also the projectiles contrail seem weird to me...

Spike grenade has an awkward lag when you throw it (compare the plasma and the spike grenades and you'll see it).

As mentioned before, new vehicles stuck by spike grenades do not have enough damage inflicted upon them...

Trip mine arms itself WAY to quickly! There should be at least a three second delay to that thing... I makes it too easy right now to turn in into a kamikaze device >_>

Bubble shield >_> Oh! I know how to UV map it now

But yea >_> some of those oddities are a little annoying. Also the bubble shield needs to be a bit bigger, which is now possible thanks to the fact that collision is editable and so is phmo!

Brute Spiker Gun, too big in my opinion... I always seemed to think of it as a pistolish weapon from the screenshots. Correct me if I am wrong that its too big in 3volved though.

Also the jmad for that gun needs work, when single weilding he holds it very oddly, same with dual-weilding!

The PHMO of the mongoose extends to far underneith and can cause some awkard flip when hitting valleys :p

the jmad of the mongoose Spartan.. his head shouldn't be so far down like that. it just wrong... He should look FORWARD!

I pwn nubs on the base with spike nades :p

Where is the sniper...

The mainmenu has to be fixed so that people with crappy 'standard' definition tv's can see certain options :p

THERES A BANSHEE ON DA ROOF??? OH MY GOD! Whered dat come from

(This is a JOKE >_>)

Okay... Ima done for NOW!!! MWA HA HA HA HA!

newbymodder · Post by **newbymodder** » Thu Sep 20, 2007 7:59 pm

agree on most,

some text needs to be edited, as in hold x to pick up mauler ammo lol, and hold x to take ally's weapon instead of hold x to flip prowler. the prowler way way to strong lol, the mongoose as jackson said is too heavy. trip mine needs a delay and needs the blast radius to be a little smaller not much. spiker is really big, yes jackson its supposed to be more pistolish. mauler is fine by me the skin needs to be darker thats all the contrail is fine to me and the bullets.

i thought id pitch in lol, i know its a beta so don't go off on that its really bad ars guys keep it up those are just like the few things i noticed. oh and you need to make the equipment limit 1 or fix it so you don't throw all the equipment at one time.

other than that 1337 can't wait for the final. or lockout to be released lol

JacksonCougAr · Post by **JacksonCougAr** » Thu Sep 20, 2007 8:08 pm

Yea >_> adding a limit would have been easy to do actually, I've never been able to keep from throwing my equipment long enough to collect multiple ammo though :p

Oh... the 3rd person models of the equipment... they are awkward because the stay even when there is no "ammo"... Could be used to cheap-out players...like make them think your gonna blow the shit out of them

Really too bad aged weapons are not SLC... so many options there...

I can change that but then if there's a vehicle in front of you going to splatter you you'll drop the tripmine and if the time it's activated 4 second later the vehicle will have the time to roll over it without exploding, that's what happen with mongoose.
If you want to drop it without exploding just drop it and fall back.

Oh how many people told it is possible but never got it working! oh oh just stop talking and make smething instead of complaining.
Just Dec who made the model instead of a texture but it cannot be injected

The blast radius of the tripmine is big because there's a delay between the vehicle that roll over it and the time the tripmine explode which is called distance so it needs a so big radius so the vehicle is damaged.

Collision is not editable.

Please make some screenshots i don't have your HDTV's or whatever it is.

And this mod is not just bitmap changes, making the equipement vehicles and weapons working fine was not easy, it's not a waste of time some people here cannot but H3, and playing the mod on syslink seems to be fun.

Thanks but my name and Yama's name is not Bungie.

Dude, Killtrocity might of not gotten as much posts as quick as this one, but hell, The killtrocity map pack Definitely had more time put into this then this mod, And the killtrocity map packs are the most best packs I have ever played in my modding career and I know people will say the same, So to say its not as good is completely ridiculous in every way possible. Plus this is just 1 map, not over 20.....

Nappy · Post by **Nappy** » Fri Sep 21, 2007 12:12 pm

Any news on when a new map will be released? Or at least a glitch fix for coagulation?

I've been having a blast on Kai. Thanks for your time and effort on this project.

Well, when playing with the trip mine, I've had a chopper run over it, survive, and I die instead, despite having gotten at least 5 or 6 lengths of the chopper away.

neodos, can halo 2.5 use your brute chopper and mongoose, well give you credit

antszy101 · Post by **antszy101** » Fri Sep 21, 2007 7:25 pm

The only thing I have to add besides whats been said 10,000 times is that it needs more weapons. Not like the spartan laser (even though it IS needed

), but Halo 2 weapons. For example, there needs to be a spawn for the sniper rifle and the battle rifle.
