Halo 3 Endless AI Battle on High Ground: Halo 3 Mod Showcase
1,551Welcome to the Endless AI Battle on High Ground. Last mod was a prototype, used to learn how to spawn AI and move them around. This mod was made with the idea of learning how Bungie created some iconic moments in the Halo 3 campaign and try them out ourselves. What we ended up with was an endless AI battle on High Ground. We've had some time to get our feet wet with the AI side of Halo 3 modding this past week, learning a lot about the scripting side! We also learned quickly the limitations of the Halo 3 engine, pushing it to the limit and then some more.

This Halo 3 mod is an endless AI battle. As that implies, the AI will fight indefinitely until you as the player go and open the gate, indicating the end of the fight. It features a scripted intro where you and allies drop into a hot landing zone, chased by banshees and anti air fire. Dropped on the beach, you can either help the battle or take a step back and watch. This is a multiplayer map built to make Halo MCC think the map is Floodgate's mission. It hasn't been tested in forge or multiplayer.
343 Industries recently released these mod tools for Halo 3 and Halo 2. They are released as a part of the Halo Master Chief Collection on PC. These tools are incredibly powerful and allow modders to make all sorts of new content. This mod was used to learn more about the Halo scripting system, and how Halo 3's campaign was so awesome. People don't realize this but all the scripts that make up the campaigns of Halo 2 and Halo 3 are available with these tools. People now are able to set up all sorts of AI battles. All sorts of tutorials on how to use the tools have been coming out as well.
As with anything, we could spend countless hours working more and more on this mod, but we are going to put it down and move on to the next Halo 3 modding project. We are going to take the learned lessons from this and apply them to the next mod, making it all the more amazing!
