Nice....But kinda has no reason...if you read the subscription of the map...^.^

gtaf is trying to say, "please create or find your own textures, do not use bungie's."

I like the concept, but a suggestion would be to add water, I think it would make it look even better

agreed^^ I think it looks neat now, but that's just it. Neat. It needs something that makes it stand out above the other mods. (other than the fact that you actually modded burial mounds.... nobody bothers with that map...)

I suggest people actually skin by using their own textures...

I do plan on making my own textures, Im just using them as place holders to see how in general it looks with that kind of texture in that certain place. Dont worry, Im hoping to have them gone soon

What is going on in that first pic?

He made the banshee a quadwing bird, and the seat of the banshee is too high, so it looks strange.

I actually prefer bungie's textures to custom ones. They usually fit together better than the garbled mess of what most people put together.

Looks nice. Best burial_mounds skin i've seen.

Only because they don't make the textures work properly before releasing...

I tend to disagree (with Trep) Though I think that Bungie textures are better than many textures people make, I think there are exceptions. I do agree, however, that this skin looks good. The biggest reason I would push for custom textures is becasue everybody has seen every Bungie texture. New textures bring new life into the game visually. With this skin, I see Sanctuary.

Again, though, good work. It really does look good.

I will only like that bird, if its wings flap... do they flap???

No, birds don't need to flap, they have engines.

I agree with Trep.

Looks quite nice actually.

I don't know if you have these in halo2, i'm a pc modder, but a detail object collection with little bits of spaced-out short grass would do wonders here. If those don't exist in h2, idk, I think it needs custom scenery or water somewhere, because it looks very bland in general. It makes my mouth dry looking at it, like it needs more life, even if that's just grass.

Thanks for the feedback guys, I do plan on changing the textures to my own, as long as their good, and yes, the wings do flap if you are still wondering, and silent, do you mean like decorators, and i bet i could do that in time
