as said in the title, this is the Nuke used in TSF's silent cartographer MP and the forerunner Island mod. I am not taking credit for the nuke, I simply injected it into bloodgulch. It fires out of the RL
Warning, even with shields and 400 health i was killed when i shot it at the opposite base, it's more if a suicude weapon.
MUST run TrashBash on a clean BG cache before patching it!

i haven't tried your nuke, but this one uses the explosions from the destruction of Halo at the end of The Maw, including a large initial shockwave, the second bright flash, debris flying everywhere, and finally a very big fireball.

that's why I wanted to put it in BG, it may not be the first nuke, but its the best.
its pretty easy to put it in any map, just recursive injection and swapping the RL's [proj] dependancy to the nuke.

TrashBash:
http://www.halomaps.com/trashbash.html
Just download the program, and rename the BG cache00x.map to map.map, and put it in the same directory as the trashbash executable. Then run trashbash. Now you can patch it, rename it to cache003.map, FTP it back to the Xbox, and delete cache004.map and cache005.map, and play bloodgulch, and get the RL!

trashbag = decompressing compressed halomap files then usuing adjust map file size, hht v3+ or HMK v2

Here are some pics from forerunner island (which I extracted the nuke out of), they're really crappy pics but they work.

Wholy crap! is that the whole island on fire?

yup. You can see some of the fireball in the first pic.
The second pic is kind of extreme, since i used HCE to make the AR shoot the nuke, so i emptied a whole clip of them on the cliff, but the first pic was just one. The initial shockwave (what does damage) is much larger, but not as big as the fireball.
The first pic shows what happens after the first blast. The debris effect is incredible. In order to get that pic I had to duck behind a rock, then stand up again, otherwise I would have been blown away like the second pic.
