Greennc, sweet skins! I like especially how you incorporate lighting into your skins. It really adds a whole lot to the map. I'll download these a little later and give them a shot. Good work!

sorry for the double post but jessus christ people, just cause green doesnt like to make his post look all fancy. his level skins are probably hands down the best someone can produce
GAMA doesnt care for popularity but when green works hard to put such quilty and little detail fixs into a map and he doesnt get any respect for it
makes him not even want to post on halo mods anymore
yanno screw it, why bother trying to push a crowd to have an expanded opinion when its all based on popularity now
........bring on the flame i dont care

it seems everyone is slowly realizing it now, halomods users are playing the name game.
But then we have no control over it and its also pissing me off too...
but oh well enough of that as ill just mod more privatly from now on
hmm so anyway green as always fucking awesome skin, unmatched, the only people ive ever seen come close are horny horny hippo and theycallmechad yet (no offence) your still a pretty big step up.
its also a pity that outstanding mods are reserved for MOTM's (well pretty much now anyway) and they typically have their fair share of shithouse skins.
but im loving that lost courtyard...the themes you put in the levels always seem to fit in with the level perfectly if only i had that talent

Re: 2 new skins have fun

I'll remove any holes in the bitmap raw data for you, but its more of a pain for me to fix holes in the meta (I'd have to do it by hand). To avoid creating meta holes, don't change tags's meta offsets/sizes/etc.. So instead of swapping a bitmap tag's meta offset to change the texture used on an object, just swap the bitmap dependency in the object's shader. Etc..

yah and about motm, im pretty sure a skin will never get on there so i think there should be a MOTM for skins, because really since the skin section has come into play its been kinda ignored except for people who understand fine work
they just want auto aim and flying turrets lol
so bring on the SOTM (Skin Of The Month)
and to Aequitas thanks for fixing the slc problems
maybe you could write a tut or tell us what to look for when fixing those damn holes

I haven't done anything with these maps ;x

Well.. You should just not make the holes in the first place. That's a good start

.. 99% of common holes in the meta come from people changing tag offsets/sizes. And then throwing data on the end of the file (using the "Chunk Adder" or similar tools) will cause problems too. Bitmap holes will come from wiping LODs or improper internalizing. I've written something to rebuild the bitmap raw as it should be at the click of a button.. So that's how I fix those
In Summation: For the common modder who just uses available apps to edit maps, you can avoid holes by leaving tags's offests and sizes alone and by boycotting apps that are known to create errors in maps. And it doesn't hurt to take pride in your work and strive to produce maps that are no different than they would be if they were created by Bungie.

The only problem I see with the SOTM is it looks too much like the SOTW. Maybe SKOTM, but I guess that kinda looks bad... I don't think anyone would like a name SKOTM as their avatar ever... might as well just put... ah, never mind.
Anyway, these are some neat Skins (Highest meaning of Neat possible is being used here). Sorry these bandwaggoners here don't appreciate quality anymore. I guess they all like running around by themselves at home on these maps with super weapons blowing up tanks every time they respawn. Thanks for making something we can use any time online, and for making more halo 2 artwork.
I don't know if I'm making any sense, but I"m trying to say something... probably it's just Keep up the good work and screw these loosers who won't appreciate it. You're a champion
