Pictures:
SMG >>> Assault Rifle
This is the Halo 3 assault rifle (not H1). It has a 32 round clip, new skin, changed ROT, HUD is a little different, and spread was tweaked. I still need the change the cross hair, which I will do when I'm done modding the entire map because the hud bitmaps get corrupted easily.

Image

Magnum >>> Pistol
Halo1 Pistol, I changed the chamber so its not just pull the trigger as fast as you can, increased damage, and added zoom.

Image
Fuel Rod Cannon - new skin &effects

Image
Covenant Carbine >>> Electric Carbine
The carbine is like a completely new weapon. It is fully auto, and can kill someone in less then 2 seconds if they are a good enough shot. However, it runs out of ammo in about 2 seconds. If you look at the picture below, you will notice the ammo meter is different. This is because the ammo is constantly changing, and the regular ammo bar could not keep the exact decimal. It recharges once you have taken a shot.

Image

Sword
Spawns in middle of the map (almost every weapon spawn has been changed in the map to a more unique place. I also did this to balance the map). All that is changed is the model, but I will have more modifactions later to prevent sword whoring.
Image

Image

Brute Shot >>> Scorture
This is basicly a flame thrower, but I had to use Scorture because Flame Thrower was too long to use for the hex. It has a new skin, firing effect/sound, I nulled out the blade, decreased the punching damage, new hud, and much more. It is my favorite gun I made, and I also spent the most time on it. I tried hard to make it look like a human weapon.
Image

Quadwings
Image

Battle Rifle
Increased damage, only takes 3 headshots (with all 9 bullets going into their head) to kill someone. It also has the Halo 3 clipping noise you hear when you fire it.
Image

Bomb and OS
Image

Plasma Grenade Explosion
Image

Teleporters
Teleporters were added to the covenant base (where the crate, and sheild spawn). The teleporters teleport you to the top of the building where the covy turret spawns.

Image
Image

Grenades
Frag grenade was replaced with gauss bomb. It makes a huge explosion. I increased the range in the damage tag, increased force, but decreased damage amount. Its good for blowing people off the map to kill them. I was not able to get a pic of the explosion though. sorry.
Plasma grenade was replaced with needle grenade. The damage range was decreased, but the amount of damage was increased. Takes more skill to use.

Gauss Bomb:
Image

Needle Grenade:
Image

Sniper Rifle
All that was changed was the model, the place where it spawns, and the skin.
Image
Image

Shotgun
Has uses for other then no shields games, or close range. It now shoots 12 shots, and I barley decreased spread so it can shoot a little farther. The gun spawns inside of a re-supply capsule.
Image

Brute Plasma Rifle >>> Drone Acid Rifle
Plasma Rifle >>> Heat Rifle

Both guns have effect color edits so they shoot their colors.
The acid rifle shoots a green bolt that once it hits a wall, it makes a green and black acid decal that lasts for 5 seconds, and a puff of smoke comes up from the ground. The heat rifle just has a color change, damage change, and a material effect change.
Image

Beam Rifle
Currently, this weapon only has a skin and spawns in a crate, but I will do more to it in the future.
Image

Crates
There are a few weapons that spawn (and yes, respawn) inside the crates. They are also system linkable, so other people can pick them up too. A bug with it though is that if the game type is all swords, or heavy weapons or whatever, the weapons will respawn next to the crate instead of in it.

awesome drxthirst2, thanks for posting this.
I just relized, this is exactly the 1000 topic posted in this section. haha

I would have done a lot more with this mod, but my xbox broke the other day. If I ever fix it, I will try to post a v2. drxthirst2 fixed a few things just so we could release it. thanks again.

oh, and the pics on the bottom are old. the beam rifle, and plasma rifles now have new skins that fit the theme.

I really like the look of this mod as my good old pal ( :wink: and arch nemisis :wink: ) scotty gee rightly pointed out its not another themeless skin mod.
We got weapon mods and some interesting new spawns ontop of that fully systemlink and a great detailed post good job bro.

I personally would like to see more mods like this on the forums, where everything feels different and when you start the first game on the level you have that serene moment where you havent got a clue where all the weapons are and what they do apart from what you read in the post.

Keep up the great work your a shining example to us all.

This section can only hold 999 topics, lolz.

Anyways, I saw this up in the pictures forum, and I liked it :P.

Good job on it, its nice and clean. And that whole bomb thing was going into my next mod...damn :evil: . Oh well nice work.

Does everyone know he did this without a BSP viewer? That's some hard core skill right there.
