It is becoming spring in Halo's Sidewinder... The snow has melted, however it is a cold morning. the grass is slightly frosted, and the water is still frozen.

ANYWAY, I modded Sidewinder to look like spring. here are screens:





you can download it. http://www.linger.com/dave/Clan/Grasswinder.zip

I have changed ground, wall, and tree textures, as well as a few others.

please leave me any feedback. Oh yeah, and dont get too close to the walls or you will find out that they are made of grass!

Well it looks pretty cool but it would be better if you were able to change the ice into water or something of that nature.

ya looks alright im not going to try now but will later keep up good work also the water idea is good to

When I made a mod like this.

I just lightened up the blue on the ice...does wonders.

Then rebuilt the map with the water effect.

But gj on the mod...looks nice.

Oh...one more comment.

Not many people's vid cards can handle that crass texture...maybe release a diff one for them (me)

Also...for the cliffs...try out the one from battle creek, tell me what ya think

Yes, the water shader would look much better in the context of this map, but think about the other factors involved. The ice would look like water but you could still walk on it and your footsteps would be clunky (that could be changed with a sound swap, however).

Good mod, best "grassy sidewinder" mod I've seen so far.

Lol that looks like a whole new level nice job man

Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone! I'll keep you posted on mod updates!

did u use duplication to put those trees in

hey thats awesome but

1] change the snow stuff that comes up frome the ground when driving to dirt.
2] make the ice water
3] my graphics card sucks, but I caan still see that fully textured grass. normally, I can't see that. How do I make it so it looks that good on all the maps?

can i actually change the ice to water? Like in death island? That'd be soo cool- is there something I could swap or change?

crazykiller- I'll definantly work on the snow/dirt problem, the ice is gonna take a WHILE probably, and the reason you are seeing the grass fully textured is because of the sidewinder.ppf you applied changes a 256x256 map to 512x512

oh. well, it wont be a problem for long because hopefulley I will get a new graphics card for my birthday on thursday.

does anyone know how to change ice to water, or even if that's possible?

try just changing the textures so it at least blends in a little better. wait, what the hell am I saying............................

im not sure about changing ice to water... (im not a big skinner) but maybe you could make it something like slush... the level (at least from your screen shots) looks like there is still a little bit of melting snow on the ground.

btw great job! i could never do that
