Hey, I didn't mean to, lol. Ok, anyone reading these posts, these are the updated screenshots, I deleted the old ones.

By the way, does anyone know how I can improve the shield bar?

What do you mean by terrible? not clear? fuzzy? blocky? please explain.

Also, please test it out first. I saved the IMAGE in jpg format so the edges look terrible because of THAT.

Okay the shield bar in Halo 2 Xbox always meets with the top of the motion tracker with the bottom of the shield bar. (Sorry I'm a halo nerd and i just had to tell you, but don't ask me for the cordnates.)

Yes, I analyzed the distances pretty hard and the only thing I can say that is off is the shield emblem. However, the position in the shield bar is fine, just not the shape.

Yea possible u need to make the shield bar height bigger (only the bottom) cause when I was skining the shield bar was not on top of each other so i hav to move it up and right a bit i took me like 20 tries to get it correctly.

New download available. JPG image deformed, not shieldbar.

Want to improve this bar? PM me for the psd files. It'll be a lot easier with my psd files than taking the dds file and editing it.

whats up with the (more realistic), it looks good now but why did you (more realistic)? nothing in halo is realistic.

more authentic. This is my final version. If you want to improve it, PM me for the psd files, otherwise it will be really hard to edit it.

Where do I apply the ppf???

Philly · Post by **Philly** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 9:54 am

Good bump.

You apply it onto bitmaps.map if it's bitmaps.ppf, and bloogulch.map if it's bloodgulch.ppf. Understand?

Oh, I love those posts that resurrect 6 month - 4 year old topics with questions that shout like a desperate man trying to save himself from an impending death.

Ok, ok, it was just 5 months, but still...
