*Aequitas appears behind a podium with a bunch of microphones, the podium is on a stage over looking a bunch of PRESS people with notepads, microphones, video cameras, and flashing cameras.*

*takes out pencil and note pad* *raises hand*

Excuse me sir, Im Dojorkan from the Halo2 Clan Guardians OF High Charity, nad Im curious, would this new invention happen to be compatable with Singleplayer maps too?

*puts tip of pencil on paper ready for the reply.*

Ill answer that....yes it does...it edits all maps that have lightmaps in it...except mainmenu...unless he fixed that before....hmmm....who cares? but yes SP works but thtere are multiplae lightmaps in SP maps so youll have to edit each one not that hard really...about 1 minutes work instead 15 hours work

Maybe you should download it and give it a try before you ask questions like that, eh?

For all of you thinking that this is a "new invention", other people (that may or may not wish to be named) have made similar unreleased tools.. So the idea behind this app isn't mine and I don't want credit for that part of it. But I do think that my tool has quite a few more features/improvements over anything that I'm aware of. Anyways, I just thought it was important to separate the idea from the app.. The app itself is all my work, the idea for it has been around a while.

I ask because The coordinate finder doesnt have SP maps, and insolence doesnt like my transfering spres to Outskirts, or marines to a level that aready has marines. (long sory).

And SP so rarely modded.. only used to take stuff from for Mutliplayer.

But then again I was able to import the sky... and Ive seena few mods with imported SP stuff to other SP maps....

yay! So this means no more big blotchy wierd spots when people try to make maps darker with the lightbulp version in ADI

My research on the lightmaps took about two minutes. I spent a lot longer researching RGB -> HSL -> RGB.

Moving on..

It's its own program.. But it was written in C# using Visual Studio .NET 2003 if that's what you mean.

Most, if not all, Uber*Tools will be incorporated into Insolence Studio
