Yeah it's BG, a remake, not a modded remake. A stragety change remake.

I really could care less if someone complains about a remake. Kinda stupid if you ask me. There is no harm along with it, so anyone who wants to complain, don't even post.

Edit: There, Ghost, sig back! (He wanted it back) Also fixed up lighting, made it darker in dark areas, and added sections of a faint bluish light.

I've also been reading up on some of the threads that have my maps. (My account was banned before, then it was unbanned, but deleted, etc, but ti's still "in the database" so I couldn't get in).
The maps I make are mainly designed to test out the full power of the Halo Engine. Those effects, fancy effects, that shows what the Halo Engine CAN do. The maps DO have good FPS. Most of them run much faster then Damnination.

I'm just trying to help bring in more people. No harm. And no, this isn't a full try of my work. It's just lighting, and some cool stuff. Simple, easy, and yes, it's fun.



BTW< Thanks Ghost for BG Tags

And yes, they are designed with balance. Play them, gameplay is great.

Wow, the night and lighting effects in pics are spectacular, I'm downloading it right now, but as of now an easy 8/10. I think it's also easy to say that the night vision on the Sniper Rifle will come in handy on this map, too.

Is it just a texture change? Not complaing!

I like it, it is true we do need more maps to give us an excuse to use the Night Vision on the Sniper Rifle.

I'll swing it to 8/10 because the screen makes me think of the beginning of "Truth and Reconcilliation".

No texture changes. New radiosity and different lighting. I added specular light scenery and rerendered the lightmaps on quality 1 for a bit.

oooo awesome light effects, even the shadows adjust to the light to make it look more realistic. Nicely done! 9.9/10

Just imagine playing Sidewinder like this or Danger Canyon!

This is a great map and there should be more night-time maps which make use of lighting effects because they give people real shocks when someone suddenly appears out of no-where.

speaking of shocks i ran into my base,red base with a plasma rifle and as i was entering this guy ran out with a shotgun and blasted me :evil: it looked kinda creepy cause everything is dark except the light coming from the bases
and this red thing just appears outa no where and it looked bloody from the light

That is really cool. Good Job. Who cares if it is a remake or mod it still is fun to play and looks good and it may bring more people into CE. :P
