Popular Post Twinreaper Posted February 25, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Figured I'd post this up, even though no one really plays Halo 2 PC anymore. With summer fast approaching, I'm hoping there will be a slight renewed interest, and I always wanted to pump out a complete map pack before I walk away from the game altogether. The following new 3 maps will be part of a collection of 10, due to be released June 5th, my birthday lols. The maps are NOT finished and will be worked on a bit more. Hopefully for anyone interested, the following in-game shots will be enough to give you the general idea. Enjoy! Map: Construct Map Begin Date: April 4, 2014 Map: Kazingo Boulevard Map Begin Date: December 23, 2014 Map: Last Resort Map Begin Date: January 17, 2014 For those interested, here is the map line-up for the map pack. All maps will REQUIRE the newely available Halo 2.5 launcher and add-on files from the H2MT group found over at H2PC.org 1. Powerhouse (Reach) 2. Quandry (Halo 1 Ratrace Redux) 3. Grounded (Halo 2 Foundation Redux) 4. Construct (Halo 3) 5. Last Resort (Halo 3 ODST) 6. Kazingo Boulevard (Halo 3 ODST) 7. Crossroads (Halo 3 ODST) 8. Courtyard (Halo Reach) 9. Guardian v3 Complete (Halo 3) 10. High Ground (Halo 3) 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconShelf Posted April 29, 2015 Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 You can't be sued for a place name. You've already used Construct and Last Reaort and a bunch of others. Besides, if you're not making money off it they wouldn't sue you anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buns Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Why isnt this being promoted more? This is great! Excellent job Twin! Will this work on a pirated copy of Halo 2 Vista? My legal copy doesnt work anymore because of Microsofts dumb key limit issue despite the fact I removed it from my other computers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melody Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 This is incredible! Nicely done with the maps! Have to nitpick though, the textures are a bit strange. I realize it's not a finished project, so I'll go easy on that. I think overall is outstanding though, very nicely done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kills_Alone Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Naw, Twin does excellent work. H2v takes forever to light a map, sometimes days. I had a few maps take a week, and if one thing is wrong you get to start over. Fun, such repetitious fun to be had! Most likely, Gemini's Twin is using a lower lighting level to provide these previews within our life time and to continue working on them at a non-maddening pace. When the lighting render level is set to a lower level it will look kinda shoddy and the shadows will be terrible, not that H2v ever had amazing shadow tech in the first place. Last, Twin has a few missing/mislabeled textures. The rainbow print textures are thought by many uninformed users/players to be a graphical glitch, such as on H3 Sandtrap. But in truth that is the engine working as intended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Orbis Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 lol If I had a gaming PC I would totally download Halo 2 for free somehow just for your content, Twin. What looks more interesting than the maps is the weapon mods. Nice going, bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinreaper Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Quick update. The 343i theme map that was Last Resort is coming along. Things are almost final and all the site add-ons are complete. Just need a few tweaks and run this puppy on Super lighting... Much MoM, so pink,,, As promised SD...I removed your graphic until the Destruct rebellion is squashed! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankenzer Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 That's cool Can I have a frame too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinreaper Posted June 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 I may add more frames around the map of I can. As I said before, Im at pretty much the engine limits. If I do add more posters of members it will have to be thru decals or spawned scenery. Since I have no tools to create a perfect render model, I have to hope one converted from CE will display texture maps correctly, Also just want to take a moment to say how sorry I am that this map pack isnt ready yet. I ran into some time restraints due to lightmapping and some errors. As soon as the maps look good enough to me, you will have your maps! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buns Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 Will it be possible to host a server and play these maps on them? If so I'll help any way I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinreaper Posted June 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 Since I reworked the maps to exclude normal map breaking guidelines, these maps will indeed be able to be hosted and will require no workarounds or patches in order to play them.
