Well. I finally got Dropzone done. My VERY FIRST PUBLIC MAP is gonna be released. (its also gonna be released in FMT format) (for all you who dont knowwho FMT are, we are CE and Source modding teams making a forerunner based halomod. This map is gonnabe updated soon with the FMT biped and weapons) Normally, I make a map and only give it to my sister or keep it for myself. This map is based on what would happen long after Halo 2. Textures are kinda funky, but ill update them. The ship is also gonna be bumped mapped...hopefully. The map was really fun yet hard to make, because it was rebuilt over 4 times. The ship provided me with the most problems. I had 34 errors involving the ship (due to animated sections) so i decided to leave it be. Everything is finished EXCEPT the rooms. Im finishing up those now. As for everything else, here are some pics of the model in 3ds Max. The map will be more detailed once in sapien. It will support all gametypes and will be great for videos. *wink* *wink*. Well, like I said, time for the pics.

This following pic demostrated what the Forerunner Carrier will look like after bump mapping. (dont mind the ground, the pic was edited in gimp to display the bump-map)
Hope you guys will like it!
Release by anywhere from today to monday! I still have to finish the other rooms and figure out how to make lights. Any help is appreciated. Thanks for viewing.

Edit: Sorry about the pics...they dont see to reall show off the textures that well. I also gotta fix a view open edges, and shape up the terrain to reduce blockiness.
