A torrential downpour falls during the last minutes of night, and the sun's light barely pierces the shroud of fog and darkness at the territory, Infinity

pictures and download are at the bottom for those who want to see them ASAP

well well, the fruits of 4 or 5 month labor is finally ripe. I present to Halomods, Nightshade, a mod for Inifinity

[C]Paul95, for beta/gamma testing and some hex editing
Tyler777, for beta testing
MacsForever for gamma testing, the work i did with him made Nightshade balanced-ish

MOD OVERVIEW:
there's probably some things i forgot...

new skins for ALOT
shader mods galore
mgs2 mods for most (if not all) plasma

practically everything now has more ammo
weapons:
AR fires 3 burst shots
PR has higher rof and longer battery
pistol stays the same(i can't change my favorite weapon)
plasma pistol is a secret, pick it up, and hold and release secondary fire to find out
needler faster rof
flamethrower, appearances can be deceiving
shotty has a slightly smaller spread

grenades:
each grenade has their new name so "You picked up a plasma grenade" is now "You picked up a needle grenade"

fragmentation grenade is now incineration grenade, erupts in a ball of flame, although strong has little if no push

plasma grenade is now needle grenade, explodes, sending needles in all directions, which also explode

vehicles:
rocket hog is now flame hog (no, I didn't steal this idea from Addict, i was working on the hog a couple hours b4 he released his mod, besides it acts completely different)
wraith added(although doesn't respawn after a time limit)
scorpion added
ghost has faster rof
banshee is the same :P
gun turret now has a constant/super fast rof, and its projectiles are super fast

level itself:
fog
rain
swamp sounds
new textures

Don't judge this mod until you've applied the ppf and played the mod, the pictures do NOT do it justice.

I suggest picking up every weapon to check out its new skin, and all but the flamethrower and fuel rod gun have a new skin
whole bunch o pictures:

yeah, that's the orsm postgame carnage report screen

needle nade exploding:

known bugs: ummmm, only three i can think of and they're all pretty easy to find
1)the needles the needle nade shoot out aren't counted as your kills
2)wraith doesn't respawn (which isn't rlly a bug but i had to have it that way, unless I wanted to get rid of a weapon)
3)if the game restarts(restarts, not new game) the wraith becomes non-existant to the host only
and a word of advice, the wraith is indestructible, but can be flipped ;)

please rate -/10

I'm gonna try to get a Halomods download link once the server doesn't take forever to upload 12.4 MB, but for now use the Filefront download link

Mac is not an acronym. Also, why would it have to be made with CE? Fog can be done normally...

Whoaaaa.... I am in love with that banshee skin. Not so much the little cobblestone look on top, but the back is absolutely beautiful.
banshee skin: 10.5/10
RL skin:4/10
rest of mod: 8/10
Looks pretty cool. I'm not a fan of the three shot burst since it just doesn't seem to work like it should. I always thought that it shoots a bit too fast. But the change in ambience is really cool, and in my opinion fits the map. Not outstanding material, but its very close. As in, 9.95/10 close to being outstanding.

One thing though-do you mean that the wraith itself is indestructible? Or that if someone gets into it, they can't be killed?
