Bot Support???

There's bot support. I checked in the map editor. Just how good, I dunno know.

Okay. I've tried it. Final word for me:

- The map is very large. You need to fix a few things, like non-colliding polygons and more scenery
- You have waypoints. But they don't really work great. They all move to one place and camp.

EDIT: NEW VERSION OF MAP

whats a non colliding polygon and what does it do?

[;)]

doesnt quite have the canyon-like feel as the halo version...change poly colors?

Maybe because of the 2d interface, rather than, you know, 3d.

i would have made it orange-ish, but there are SO many polygons to fix.

and i basically just added new elements, so don't expect an exact replica.


BTW, HALO ROX!

The bots are pretty.. rubbish. Can I have a go at spicing em up?

ABSOLUTELY!

I tried... But failed miseably.

Ok then, I'll send it back as soon as I can.

Thanks a bunch. since I could never get any online players to play with me on it, bots will have to do...

and what are colliding polygons?

My scenery tool on my map maker is fubar. sorry about the scenery. you can add more yourself, if you like.

background color sucks but other than that its very good

The design is great, but it needs more colour and some shading to improve its appearance, and yeah the background colour needs changing too. It's hard to tell the gameplay without decent bots, but it looks like it would be pretty fun. Good work.

Ill go ahead and help you again rambo_6 [:P]

very nice map, young apprentice. im glad we have another halo fan. check out my Halo2-D mod!

Sorry about the delay. Its not perfect but I've left an example of how you're supposed to make bots jump and then fly over the blue base so you can make more yourself if you want. And don't make straight places with only waypoints at the start and end cos if they get shot of course then they'll get confuzzled and jump repetitivly or go in the wrong direction until they get back to a waypoint telling to go the other way. Eg,

- >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> - should be - > - > - > - > - where - is a waypoint and > is a clear space.

Hope this and the example in the map helps.

Rambo 6: Select a polygon and on the right there is a menu of different types of polygon. Normal polygons are colliding, 'doesn't collide' means the polygon doesn't stop anything. Deadly, Bloody Deadly and Lava kill you if you touch. Ice is slippery. Rest you can work out.

I opened this topic hoping for a 2D replica of Blood Gulch from Halo, but to be honest its not very good...=(

ill make a replica from overhead??? would you like it? i thought about it for my mod.

sorry i took the name from halo... how about ctf_Battle Gulch?

and thank you Sliker Hawk for the tips, i'm gonna try waypointing on my own just to get the hang of it.

AND WHO WANTS ME TO MAKE A REAL REPLICA OF BLOOD GULCH? THAT WOULD ROCK! I'll GIVE IT A TRY!

Looks good too.

What looks good too? :P

ok! make a replica of blood gulch. Then we can make a "red vs blue" in soldat :D

no we cant btw, 'cause that needs vehicles, and that sucks!

but make the map :D

Okay, I will try. It will include the bases, the yellow caves, the sniper positions and the trees even! the rocketlauncher respawn point will be where the flamer bonus respawns! :)

wehey!

uh, i failed miserably... Its difficult to convert 3d to 2d... :(

who wants to see it?
