Piloting the Autumn

M9 HE-DP Grenade · Post by **M9 HE-DP Grenade** » Sat Oct 29, 2005 8:19 am

Imagine if a mod came out where u could pilot the poa. i wonder if u would be able to use the huge cannon at the front,and how fast the autumn would go. probably light speed or something.what kind of camera do u guys think it would be flyable on? FP,or the far away type cam? im gonna be doing a little work on this project to see what happens,and to see if its actually possible to fly. lol, and to think we once dreamed of flying the pelican,or longsword. we thought they were big huge ships and they were awsome to fly at first. well,now we move onto mother ships

oh god this is going to be one hexing nightmare, very nice idea though.

im sure everyone has thought of flying it,but no ones actually attempted.

It's certainly possible in CE, with the work of a lot of hex commands, but I'm not sure if it's possible in Halo PC/XBox.

its possible in CE? w00t. in what way though? like actually making the bsp a vehicle or just modeling the whole thing from scratch? a big problem with this is that we would somehow have to change the vehicle so that u dont slide or fall off when the autumn flies. in the longsword for example,if your not in a seat if it moves u fall

judging by the size of it, where would you go in? what other seats would there be??

Too big. But if you put it in a map that was like 1000 meters in size then maybe you could do it.

if u just put it in a big empty space and made small moons or planets with some bases you could do it. it would be good for 16 people. a whole solar system or something. your base is one planet,the opponents base is the other. each team gets one POA,load your longswords or pelicans onto the ship and off you go.

the drivers seat would be at the bridge,and u would need a keycode to get in the seat,since its so huge and dangerous if a noob got it,well,it wouldnt be pretty. u wouldnt really need any seats,since the autumn wouldnt be able to flip or do crazy stunts you could pretty much just stand and walk around. that is,if a moder could pull that off,and i hear someone already has. so if the autumn could go into hyper drive and people could just walk around that would be great. maybe even add a cannon at the front. the autumn would also turn very slowly,like 3 minutes just to turn 180 degrees. and the ship would take the equivlent of 6 nukes to blow up. Until someone does this,the longsword is the closest we have

no one would know the keypad so it wouldnt fly and sooner or later someones gonna leak the keycode

M9 HE-DP Grenade · Post by **M9 HE-DP Grenade** » Sat Oct 29, 2005 3:41 pm

a message would give the host the key,and it would be his choice to give it out. the key code would be composed of 4 digits,and it would randomly pick
a combination to give to the host.the combination would change every game. to tell u the truth these are just some quick ideas im putting together,if this all happened im sure a good deal of time would be put into the flying of the craft. i know it might sound stupid to need permission to drive a vehicle but we're talking about something thats 50X bigger than a longsword. the host wouldnt want some stupid noob flying around blowing stuff up and tking with the cannon. In fact if this idea goes through there will probably be a separate seat for gunning. The only real problem i can see with this idea is that it could be quite taxing on our systems and the framerate may not be higher than 16 FPS or something.

give it a set ammount of life and ammo. And it takes twice as long to respawn. Put it on Hugeass

this is impossible in bsp, there is no actual PoA vehicle. hell there isnt even a PoA model.

you would have to make a new vehicle in CE and convert to pc.

rofl, good idea, doubt anyone'll make it.

it would fit in hugeass,but it couldnt go very far. you can only fit about 10 poa's in hugeass.

new idea

lets hire bungie to do it. they made the poa

the PoA isnt really a vehicle. dont believe me? use sparkedit and check it out.

What is hugeass?

fireinhole8 · Post by **fireinhole8** » Sat Oct 29, 2005 7:48 pm

hugeass=hugeass level for ce

and get a good modeler, the poa would be freakin sweet to mess with, when it blows, the nuke,lol!
