Closer to Heaven (w/ pics)

The Patch is for HEADLONG

As many know, I was trying to make a suitable skin for Project ORSM. However, as finals got the best of me, I was unable to complete it in time to be used for ORSM. Soooo... here's the skin. It's a fairly subtle skin in the since that I didn't want it to feel like a whole new city or place. I wanted it to seem like the ORSM theme: war torn.

There are no vehicle or weapon skins.

I just got my XIG to work a couple of days ago, so these are the FIRST pictures I've ever taken with it. Be patient as I'm no in-game photographer. You want better pictures, please take them yourself.

Edit: fixed the pics but for some reason they won't display, so click the links.

Well I'm glad that all 4 of you who downloaded this skin enjoyed it. I don't feel like the pictures really do it justice, especially in the "fancy room" by the brute shot. I'm glad you guys tried it out first hand. I spent a long time on this skin, but I guess it's not what people are looking for at the time being. Looks like I have no options but to get started on something new. Hopefully I'll put something out there that the community will want. I have some good ideas...

Anyway, again I'm glad that you 4 liked it.

Im makeing a True War mod. I cancelled the SaW mod. If you want, you could make skins for that and me and Dootuz will do the rest and you would be given credit for makeing the skin because i suck at skinning.

Just kidding.

Looks beautiful, I will be downloading this one, and probably that Coag one of yours.

Just want to let you know, I added this to my Main Menu (thank you Serenity), and it's absolutely beautiful. I love it.

As is The Meadow, however, a lot of the textures for the rocks go pitch black if I get too far from them, especially in split screen. Even clearing my cache did nothing...

Two-One · Post by **Two-One** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 9:19 pm

Having probelms with it now, I had it on my box and then replaced it with another Headlong mod and now I cant get the serenity patch to work. Is there anyway someone could make a PPF for me. I would be very gratefule for it.

We don't post mods that are just skins (I think) - Delphia was the closest o just a skin, but that few other tweaks. Although, if it becomes more than a skin, I'll add it as suggested map to the Game Content forum myself.

Edit - Shut up, I'm new....I found it
