Staredit Network

How bout someone making a Halo 2 mod. You could change like the marine to MC holding an SMG (you have to change the cooldown). An elite would be like, a hydra to look like an elite holding a carbine. A halo 2 mod would be great for starcraft.

Heh, I have actually thought of this, I thought of doing it once I saw the marine holding the Energy Sword on the banner of SEN.

Maybe I will do this later when SEN Mod is done.

Hey this was MY idea but halo one since I havent played proper halo 2 yet. I was also thinking to play online with other people or just see it yourself make it a GRAPHICS only mod. So the marines look like halo marines with aussult rifles but act the same as sc marines with movement speed attack speed etc. Now can we start a group project?

i dont know how to change units into like a different picture such as
a marine into master chief or an elite or anything. i want to know how and if I did I would use my skillz to let you make an arena for halo2 by using a map editor. ( i already know the part about the editor. I just need to know how to change a unit to a different looking thing.)
but if someone told me that then we could work on this and it would be a great mod!

Heres and idea for the plasma sword:

Archon holding a dt sword xD.

I could just change the graphics of the marine, And make it look as if he is holding a Energy Sword.

When I was bored in science I made a whole list of what sc units can be trasformed into halo units. My ideas are for a graphics only mod.

Heres the list:

Terran=Human
SCV: reg halo rine w/out helmet + melee human pistol
Marine: reg halo rine w/out helmet + au rifle
Firebat: reg halo rine w/ helmet + flame thrower
Ghost: reg halo rine w/ helmet + sniper rifle
Goliath: rocket hog
Vulture: reg warthog
Tank: halo tank
Wraith: Antiflood lazer thing
Dropship: halo dropship
BC: like pillar of autumn
Sci vessel: Dunno

Protoss=Covenant
Probe: Grunt w/ melee + melee plasma pistol
Zealot: Blue visible elite w/ sword
Dragoon:blue elite w/ plasma pistol
Dark Templar: Cloaked gold elite w/ sword
High templar: Jackal maybe?
Reaver: Hunter
Shuttle: Covenant dropship
Observer: guilty spark 343
Scout: banshee
Corsair: banshee air to air blue plasma only
Arbiter: banshee green plasma
Carrier: Cov. main ship w/ little banshees + blue plasma atk as interceptors
Photon Cannon: Shade w/ grunt on

Zerg=Flood
zergling: little infecty thing
hydra: infect cov w/ plasma rifle
larva: smaller infecty thing
infest terran: blowup form
drone: infest human w/ melee pistol
ultralisk: dunno possibly melee infect cov.
scouge: infecty thing w/ wings
mutalisk: infect human w/ wings, like an angel, dunno about weapon
queen, overlord and defyer: no idea

Buidling ideas

Human buildings are parts of pillar of autumn e.g. engineering bay is halo armoury.
Flood have infested human building
Need ideas for covenant buildings

Other notes:
Human heros are green
Covenant are black/silver

Heroes
Jim raynor: master cheif
Not much more.


Hows that?

I believe in order to do this you would have to get permission from someone at bungie. Since you will be replicating some of their work. But you might want to check around their site anyways.

You don't need permission to change anything into halo 2...

If that was the case, We woulden't be allowed to make UMS maps about halo 2, Or any other company that is copyrighted.

No offense Tearshed, but your ideas are stupid.
And part of the reason I don't like Halo/2 Maps is that you can't really get the right units with the right attack speeds, ranges, graphics, or sizes.
Even with mods, it would look craptacular.

Sorry to disapoint everyone... But my cousin is alredy making a halo2 mod...
It will be total conversion with all graphics and such...

The terran are humans
The protoss are covanent
The zerg are flood


The humans will eventualy get their starships and the covenant will get theirs...
The flood will basicaly be a massing race so they will be able to mas tons of units early game and even more late game...

yall really dont get my point about the mod. Im thinking about having like arena maps that you could use the mod in. Then you could pick up the weapon and it would give you the gun you picked up. The hydras could be the elites. The Spartans could be the marine.

If that we're true, then why did Xelnaga Vengance get shut down by Blizzard?

Maybe this list could be used:
Humans = Terran
SCV: Don't know
Marine: Marine (Un-Armored)
Firebat: Marine (Armored)
Ghost: Spartan
Vulture: Standard Warthog
Tank: Scorpion Tank
Goliath: Don't know
Wraith: Blackbird Bomber (The ship the Master Chief used to escape the Pillar of Autumn in the first Halo).
Dropship: Paelican (I can't spell that)
Science Vessel: Scout Ship?(I don't know)
Battlecruisier: The model name of the Pillar of Autumn, I forgot the name.

Covenant = Protoss
Probe: Don't know
Zealot: Blue-Class Sword Elite
Dragoon: Red-Class Plasma Rifle Elite
High Templar: Give the thing an attack and make it a Red-Class Carbine Elite.
Dark Templar: White-Class Special Ops Sword Elite
Reaver: Wraith Tank
Shuttle: Phantom
Observer: Probe Droid
Scout: 1st-Class Carbine Brute? Make it a land unit, give it a Brute Shot and a Melee Attack
Corsair: Banshee
Carrier: StarShip
Interceptors: Banshees?
Arbiter: Hunter? Make it a land unit, give it a Fuel Rod Cannon and a Melee Smite

Zerg = The Flood
Drone: Don't know
Zergling: Infested Grunt?
Hydralisk: Infested Elite
Ultralisk: Infested Marine
Infested Terran: Carrier Form
Broodling: Revived Flood
Mutalisk: Flood Ghost? Make it a ground unit.
Guardian: Flood Tank? Make it a ground unit
Devourer: Flood Wraith? Make it a ground unit.
Queen: Infection Form (the little larvas), give it a melee attack, and make it a ground unit.
Defiler: Infested Sword Elite?
Overlord: Don't know

You don't have to include these units but you can if you want:
---Heroes---
Terran Heroes = Human Heroes
Jim Raynor: Master Chief
Gui Mortag: Sargent Johnston

Protoss Heroes = Covenant Heroes
Fenix Dragoon: Arbiter
Mojo: Tartarus
Fenix Zealot: The Elite with the half-missing jaw (Forgot his name)

Zerg Heroes = Flood Heroes
None I can think of.

Have you ever seen an Infested Grunt ingame? They become Carrier Forms, same with anything else that's unfit for Combat forms. I would think so, atleast.


Inf. Elites are actualy stronger, faster, and more durable then Inf. Humans, as you may notice in Halo: CE. Thus, it should be the other way around.


There's no such thing as an 'infested' vehicle. It all depends on who's piloting it.
Thus, all units should have a mind control function that only works on ground vehicles, and has 0 range, and it would be the equivelant of "jacking" vehicles. As for Overlord, the Flood can apparently pilot Pelicans, albeit quite poorly.


Actualy, thanks to MemGraft, you can take units out, and give units different palletes, so you can completely remove the Queen and Defiler, and if necesary, replace some other units with their spells when and if applicable.


"Tarsonis"? The closest to that I can remember in Halo 2 is "Tartarus"...
As for the Pearl Elite(I call whites "pearl", because in CE their armor had a neat pearly shine to it), I don't think his name is even said in the entire game...

Yes, I know that, what I mean is that a Flood is driving it, thus I call it a "Flood Vehicle."

Meh.. I don't pay close attention to the dialogue.

Hmm, no I haven't.

Indeed, I wasn't really thinking when I was typing this.

Completely removing the Defiler is a good idea, but I still think the Queen should stay.
