Yeah there is alot more than that... view in mapviewer[attachment=3393:Map_viewed.tiff]
The courtyard thing is the place on the lower left.
The map actually goes on a lot furthur than that- it's just you can't see it very well there.

Another question... what about monsters?

[Fishman92]

Onsters.. well there won't be aliens, that's for sure!
Most enemies will be human, and mabe have helicopters, turrets etc

check the orphanage for textures and sprites. There was a bunch of stuff you could possibly use from the Vietnam scenario.

I downloaded some of those, but they won't open :/
I wanted to use the helicopter!! I will try again.
EDIT:
Ah-ha! found out why it wasn't working... downloaded the .zip rather than .sit .!

[tehWastedJamacan]

can you give me a link to the orphanage? I found it once, but I lost it again.

I once used that helicopter, it was pretty cool, but it defies a major law of Marathon Monsters- it is an extremely horizontal monster, and thus looks kinda... bad. If you can make 3d models, then I'd suggest making a 3d version of it (like the car), but you'll still need to anvil the bitmaps in.

Or just look under "scrap" on fileball.bungie.org.

thank you much

[CryoS]

so fishman, hows those models working for you? any progress?

[Fishman92]

Progress!!!

Made some hi-res textures
Almost done level one, I decided it was too short.

And CryoS, I will need a new comp before i can use these, but I've looked at them and they are AWESOME
even if it took me 10 mins to load each into sketchup!!\

Gunna close the thread here, all new info will be posted at the FMN forums.

Dang. Why don't you just start a new thread with the new title?

Just thought It'd be easier only having to update one place, rather than 2, and the thread was already there so It is moving!

[CryoS]

blender is terrible. i dont recommend it.

[envy]

Blender 2.5 may be good though. i hear the GUI is exceedingly better.

Well, I am told that if you try to navigate through the UI you will never get anywhere, and that you should just use keyboard commands.

Blender is one of the best free 3D apps I've ever used. While it's interface is cumbersome and difficult to use sometimes (At least in pre 2.5) it is very powerful, and features an extremely good set of tools.
