Title: Halo 2 Progression Reports
Post by: Videogamebuyer14 on January 31, 2004, 05:23:00 PM
This is the thread where we will post updates to the Halo 2 mod for Halo 1 (Xbox).

Another teammate on our team will be following up with a screenshot of what I have been working on for two days. It's a new refined model after the Battle Rifle in Halo 2. The model is for Blood Gulch, but the weapons can be added to most all levels. Please leave comments, if you have any.

Modeling done by me.

Thanks to dedfrog for the Screenshot.

Nice work. I really hope you guys get this mod done, because I'm looking for some variation in my LAN games with friends. Keep it up!

It's a shader.
The face of the rifle isn't rounded enough, so it's sticking out.

I really appreciate everyone's feedback. I thank dedfrog big time for using his image capturing devices for grabbing my PPF I sent him.

If everything goes well, we should be well on our way.

looking nice!!  what other stuff can we expect to see in the halo 2 mod?? maybe make a list of what we can expect to see??

hey put a visor shader on the MC so that his armor looks more reflective, or you could just make one but the visor works too.

overall its looking nice and keep up the good work

I'll try to post updates without being too obvious..

Updates:

What's Done:
Sniper Rifle to Battle Rifle
Rocket Launcher Projectile to Refined New Model

Still to Do:
Earthly Weapon Conversions
Some MetaData Conversions
Covenant Conversions
(Now, since I haven't really seen anything much on how the New Covenant Weapons look, so I'm going to kinda take ideas on it from the team, and come up with the final render.)
Grenades
Vehicles
New Scenery Models

And maybe more...

If you'd like to see certain things, that I may have overseen in halo, please let me know.

Yes, the conversion of a Sniper Rifle to a Battle Rifle was a very difficult task, but I also learned of the difficulties a taking a model, and moving stuff around to make it look like a new thing.

Heh. I just noticed something. One of my teammates pointed out that the mod I had released privately to the team, was almost on par with another Halo 2 mod, that was released that I had no idea about.

I don't know in which direction this project is going anymore, since I seem to be the only active modeler. Gibby, please let us know what you want to do.
