to record on your desktop you can use camtasia.....i dont know about using fraps with vga.....y dont you test it out.....i dont think it will work because you arent playing the game on your computer ....just your moniter....cuz you switch the channel over

FRAPS only records Direct3d renderings, which is what everything inside of Halo is. That's why it can only record gameplay.

Ive found good pictures of the Ivory Tower level on Gamespy so there legile just to let you know. Now then, I say that we make the Ivory Tower level.......its small, fairly simple and looks like fun, and is Halo2. Mabey we could get the Halo2 mod team to help with it? even add thier Halo2 mod to it....

email me and post below if your intrested..

oooh very nice pictures and great idea! only problem is taht the H2 team is working on Zanzibar right now...

but mabye we could ask them to do ivory tower next once they finish zanzibar if h2 hasnt already come out! O and for all u people reading, please note the smileyface clan logo on the spartans shoulder in the first picture.. interesting...... hmmmm...

yea but insted of waiting till the h2 team finishes zanzibar lets see if we can get another team to do this.

when i saw the pics on this map it looked amazing i really hope someone could make this. even without an h2 mod this map would be awsome

o yea i forgot it doesnt have to be H2 but mabye could do the same thing like new mombosa, like have a classic and a H2 version!

yeah, i say we get a team to make this, or even make it our selves if we can....ive not got any experience with halo mapping but i say we give it a shot, it cant be too hard can it? it looks pretty open i reckon and the main bits only got a few trees that need putting in

Its harder than you might think, I would start off with the outside, get a box with quite a few segments, bend it (or even make a tube) then cut the doors with boolean, make the second level with another tube, then for the pylons, i would get a box make it have 3 width segments and extrude the centre segments on each side, then extrude the top and move it slightly. Then for the river, bend a 14 width segment box to 320 degress, then extrude the polygons.

So there is alot more detail then you think, then u gotta texture it all.

This is harder than you think, especially with h2 approaching. I had started on lockout, but I doubt I will finish it.

yeah ivory towers mad fun i got in on that test build in that pic lol it was mad amazing inside we played zanz ivory tower and lock out

lock out being loads of snow and ice is mad amazing but ivory tower i feel in my own personal feeling is it is better than BG and BG will be back in halo 2 so it will be good

FReAK · Post by **FReAK** » Mon Sep 13, 2004 11:47 am

mmkay 2 things: one: lockout is not a snowy and icy map. it is a boxed in completley map sorta like chiron. only without all the teleporters. Basiccalyy its like a large series of tunnels perfect for the plasma sword.

2: How do u know if they will include BG in H2??? what about other levels like derelict [so much fun on ffa even more fun iwth rockets only, try it with about 8-16 people its soo much fun.] or battle creek?

I have a video of gameplay of lockout, ivory tower, waterworks, midship, and zanzibar. If that would help in making this ivory tower level...

I could model the hell out of it if someone would make some original concepts for the other areas. contact me over MSN (or you could wait until Isign on AIM... You'd wait a while) and talk to me about this. I'd love to help make a Halo 2 map.

well if som1 could make it and release it b4 halo 2 comes out that would be nice cuz i doubt mombasa will
