Subject: Halo 3's "The Pit" arriving on Halo PC soon.

This is a Project that I, and several others, have embarked on to recreate the level "The Pit" from Halo 3 and bring it to Halo PC with the help of Halo Custom Edition. The model was made completely from scratch by me, all the textures were created by a fellow named Connor, and with the help of Zteam they did the Shader work and the powerups seen in the video, in addition to a lot of behind the scenes work. Nothing in this project was extracted from Halo 3 it was all done by just staring at the TV.

Keep in mind when watching the video no scenery yet (minus 2 items). Lighting and shaders are temporary. And due to the 8 year old rendering engine, some errors occur which I can do nothing about, plus my limited portalling knowledge.


Enjoy this teaser,

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Good job on the map. Good promo video too, when the sound is turned off of course.

Can you port this to H2V too? =P

Great work by the way.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

Great Job! And there have been some Halo 2 PC ports of other maps, but this one looks better.

nice!
maybe make a classic version like it is now.
and then make a version with halo 3 master chief bipeds and halo 3 weapons(maybe with a bit of homming to the guns for lag compensation). and especially do the assault rifle cause normal one kinda sucks^^

Finally, another ZTeam release.

The first release of the map will be classic, however we will be revamping the weapon models so they look nicer and better detailed. Also the Assault rifle from Halo 1 will be changed to the Halo 3 style one with 32 rounds and more damage since it doesn't really do much right now. Shortly after the release of the first map we hope to do a Halo 3 version of the map. Just for those people who do enjoy those kinds of maps. All content will remain custom so the Halo 3 version may take a little extra time. Just a note though, the sword will not make an appearance in either map since it just doesn't work on PC. Instead it will be a flamethrower.

thanks for listening to the community:D
sounds great to me.
but what about the masterchief (armor)biped will that also be halo 3?

Ideally I would like to have a Halo 3 biped, but like I said the whole point of this project is to remain user created, not ripped. I unfortunately don't have the time to make one but if someone else gets around to one then we may use it.

master chief has the same armor in halo 3 as in halo 2 except its a bit more detailed.

I suggest you use one of the custom made halo 2 one's.
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=1270 (best one)
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=2162 (still needs compiling)
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=1198 (not halo 2 but looks nice)

Hmm... what do I put here? Cause' I have no idea. :(

Hats off to you for creating this perfect masterpiece.

But, some maps have a working sword, yet their physics and scripting are off. That's just my only concern with the sword. So, in a way, it is broken. =/

As much as I would love to remake more Halo 3 maps, it provides wonderful practice and it's fun seeing how far you can push the Halo 1 engine, I just don't have the time. This one took long enough as it is.

That looks amazing. I'd like to see more if you are willing to make more, like a Halo CE Guardian or Sandtrap.
