Slug, dude, what the hell is your problem? Seriously, man! If you don't like it, then don't play it. Problem solved. You don't have to be a complete jerk to this guy because he doesn't spend his every waking moment modding to know how to do cooler stuff. We all had to start somewhere. Most of us here started with projectile swaps, nothing more.

Well, it's hard to see across, so I'd maybe lighten up the fog, and make it gray, that way it looks more moon-like. Another aspect here that would help is to skin the map gray. It would be as easy as making the bitmaps already on it grayscale, that way the texture looks the same, but it's all gray.

Anyway, keep modding! It's great to see more and more people modding every day!

Hey XBC-Requiem thanks for the advise I just noticed that that would be a good idea but what bitmap do i skin there's like a hundred for the level which one would be the whole level?

P.S. slug seriously this is a first for me and you can't say that your first ever mod in history made halo mods elite so i would seriously stop talking because flaming doesn't make you any better of a modder useful feedback and not being a bitch does.

p.p.s. Does anyone even like it?

p.p.p.s. XBC-Requiem or anyone that does like it you want to play on xbc when I'm done with the fog?

XBC-Requiem what do you meen making the bitmaps greyscale you totally lost me?

You'd really just have to look around. It seems to start at about "scenarios\bitmaps\detail_maps\concrete\concrete_bubble", so just take a look at the map in Halo 2, and then compare it to the bitmaps in Dothalo.

He means just make bitmaps that are a different color (walls) grey so that they fit the moon theme.

will do and do you know what XBC-Requiem ment by making the bitmaps greyscale?

edit: I think I know but tell me anyway incase I'm wrong please.

Yellow walls don't very good when you're going for a moon theme, so just extract them and turn them greyish.

Oh I thaught he ment there was a button in Entity, or Insolence, or something like that.

Oops I just noticed that in the Midship sky you can see the moon so you can't be on the dark side of the moon if you seee the moon sooooo i will have to skinn that.

Meh I see some fog and the FRG. 3/10 for something you could do in entity in about 10 mins.

Nice double post too.

IS IT FUN?!?!?! I if it is then my next update will blow it away it's skinned, has a slightly thinner grey fog and a meteor shower oh yeah!!!

DarkShallFall · Post by **DarkShallFall** » Mon Mar 12, 2007 4:07 am

dude if you add the backwash sky the fog wont end at thr top of the level it will go on and look more realistic and you should changre the map name or the fog color cus green fog has nothing to do with the moon.

(Sorry for the slow reply)

Greyscale means black and white and everything inbetween, but no color.

Just open them all up, save them as a greyscale bitmap, then open them in Photoshop and save them as the correct .dds file.

If you need more help, IM me or PM me.

bloompyle · Post by **bloompyle** » Mon Mar 12, 2007 4:58 pm

Darkshallfall I already got that covered along with a meteor shower and a moonish skin.

bloompyle · Post by **bloompyle** » Mon Mar 12, 2007 5:00 pm

This map looks ok, better than some firsts I've seen. You gotta cut down on your double posts dude.

bloompyle · Post by **bloompyle** » Tue Mar 13, 2007 4:50 pm

sorry for the double post and I'm releasing and update now but the meteors aren't going down the are like shooting stars because the problem is the pitch it is being a pain in the arse like instead of just making it 180 it has to be some random number like 217 so I'll work with it if someone can fix it that would be great for the meen time I'm just messen with stuff and if someone can get ai in the map that would be great it just won't work with me so the update will have the char tag elite in it thank you for your support everyone and now to check the poll!!!
