YOYORAST ISLAND: Potentialy, the best map ever made but...

this map looks really sweet.....but i think teh bases are too close together....i think there should be one base on one side of the map and one on the other.....so more of the map gets put into use......but either way the map kicks ass

Nice map, I would like to be one of the beta testers of it,oh, btw, I can't seem to get my 3dsmax to work right, & my map for the VCP got screwed up, when you finish that, could you help me with my map?

If you can, Email me at Stridervcore@hotmail.com
If you cant, thanks anyway

Thanks man but you should read my previous posts... you'll see that the bases being so closed one to the other represent the main originality of the map because you can shoot the enemy from your own base... and I can assure you that if you want to reach the enemy flag and score, you must cross 90% of the entire map... You simply can't go from your base to the enemy's directly...so every corner of the map is fully used.

I hope this map gets released before Halo 2 comes out! Although it is unlikely..... Not much time left but people without a Xbox or hate Halo 2 (who will? Honestly?) should still play this map and have fun with it! Keep up the good work!

The people without xbox live will give it a shot.

I don't think every haloCE player owns an Xbox or will buy one to play halo2... HaloCE will survive!

Guys! no big step yet, no map in game, just some little modifications to get the poly number down and edges on the ramp near the towers have been reworked... and some new renders that show the map a bit clearly I think:

YO!

Looks good, and it will be out when Taco can get to work on getting this in game, which will be sometime after the release of Zanzibar im guessing.

Ya that is a pretty b*tching map. I would love to see a hog come out of that cave wrong and tumble all the way down that big @ss slope! I would laugh my friggin ass off when MC's body just fly's straight into the water..

Your map looks great, need a new weapon?

Here's a pic of the Portable Gauss Cannon, go to the VCP Team thread to view the details

Guys, I just want to share with you this new big update:

Lastly I have been reworking the map entirely to get the poly number down (it's true it was too high), It has been a very very huge work, I've spent some night on it but I think the result is here... there is now 2 times less polygons and the general design has not changed a lot... I've even managed to make it cleaner...

About the textures: I'm not going to use the standard halo textures but my owns.. In effect I've been working on custom textures (based on real pictures taken with my 5million pixel digital Cam) for a few month now and I can finally show them to you here on the map...
But let's the pictures speak by themselves... pic (shaded model), pic (with custom textures).

YO!

I cant really tell whats going on, but you diddnt really have to reduce the polycount that much.

Keep up the good work!
