Hi

This is the fisrt my mod.
Its a skin for maimenu.

The patch PPF here: http://kimik.3d.free.fr/mainmenu_GoldEdition.rar
(Resign the map!)

I worked on it something about 2 days.

Changes:

-New textures
-New lighting on the scenario and new ship

As you can see i changed some textures that anyone changed before me.
Just look a the Pregame Lobby, on the others mods it stay blue.
I found a way to change the RGB valvues of the DDS A8R8B8G8 and X8R8B8G8 textues.

Thanks to Royal for helping me to remove the "blue fog"

I hope you will like it :P

Very nice! The logo and some of the other images could use a little work, and you should try to get the colors to match more. In some places they are completely different.

9/10. Nice effort for a first timer and welcome to HaloMods!

Those colors are horrible. Not trying to be mean, but they really are. And most of the stuff looks choppy and you can tell you didn't try to blend it any or make it look good. 6/10 for the effort but, next time. Take some more time on it. Try and get the colors to match a bit more.

Those colours are disgusting. No offense, still good though. But the blue Master Chief in the player select screen in the background kinda sucks, he's cut-out bad.

But if you tried your best to make this, then it's a good mod.

I like the gold. The pregame is a bit anooyingly ugly bbut otherwise its pretty good. Like the others said, try to get some better cut outs of master cheif. Its a bit grainy. 8/10

Thanks

Yes il will try but hex editing to get the good colors is so long to do :?
Its for that i will try to make an app, then i will use better colors, i know its not really good for the colors i just wanted to change the lobby colors because anyone did it before ( i think ).

I was rong for the A8 and X8 DDS textures you cant edit it but with the last version of the DDS plugin.
But not all textures are compatible and can be extracted, so i will make an app to modify the RGB colors with a XML plugin without need too extract and inject the texture.

I love the gold and blue theme but you should of kept it like that the entire way...as of now it looks rather clashing. I suggest maybe taking out the character bitmaps in the player select screen (or making them dark-gold or brown mcs). Also if you were to take out the orange in the map select screen and replace with a more subtle gold, or something less bright, it would look much better and tie in neatly with the rest of your skin.

Anyways... 8/10, keep up the good work :D

Good things:
-everthing thing is colored

Bad things:
-The color is awful
-You saiying you figured this out when
i'ts been done before
-The croping need work


Suggestions:
-Use a darker color but not to dark like black
-Put some more better croped artwork in there


P.S. Not trying to be mean, Nice work, just needs a little tweeking.

I don't get why people are raving over this. I admit it was alot of work but you did a horrible job. It is way to choppy and half the colours don't match. 1/10 for the work put into it.

That's pretty awesome, but I don't really like the 2 Spartans.
