i have a suggestion of how to make it better, but i want your consent to change your picture first. i will show you just where to put the snow. i have a jeep so i like going thru mud and water and stuff, and so i think i should know where debris gets thrown

. so soon as you say go ahead, i'll get to work on it.

Be my guest,I'm open for suggestions on making it better,because I hope to release this,not just keep it to myself,and I'm also trying to get a "snowy" bloodgulch look,but thats later.

k, i'll get to work on it quickly.

Edit: here, it's just a quickie in paint to give you an idea.

Update,I have some things to back and edit,for instance if (public wants) change the front sections of the things that connect the tires,make the front snowy and the sides not as snowy and if anyone has any other ideas,I'm open.

I'm saving past textures just incase I manage to screw this up like most everything I mess with,there is one thing I am not liking though,the I guess "secondary" warthog layer, what I mean is notice how you can see the white but at the same time the original warthog texture,how do I make it so all you see is snow? I believe that if that happens that it will look much better.

Cool. Thats for halo PC though rite?

xnodunitx · Post by **xnodunitx** » Fri Dec 03, 2004 6:47 pm

Yep,I'm also testing snowy textures on other vehicles as well as trying to make them look more...well,different..anyway,while doing that I am doing other things heres a picture.

I'm also going to edit the works and such,I can't seem to find the file to edit the main halo logo though..

glad you took my advice on where to put snow

it looks a lot better, you're doing a great job. keep it up

xnodunitx · Post by **xnodunitx** » Fri Dec 03, 2004 7:03 pm

I could use some more of your advice,I am planning on (if all goes well) to convert halo into an ice halo,but I need help from everyone else too.

first thing. I need to know how to get the snow to appear "thick" and white on the warthog,not like dirty melted snow,in other words the original warthog texture doesn't interfere as shown by the headlights.

second. I am having the same problem with the grass,the white later always turns greenish.

I will release the warthog as soon as I figuire out how to make it into the file thing everyone does,well after I fix a few things,the middle section of the back has no snow and I need to fix the inside texture (got some snow inside the warthog).

Okay,while messing around ingame with a few of me changed textures I came on this issue,I saved the file and edited it (the blue sky) however HMT keeps saying I need to save it as a DXT1,so I try that,then 2 or 3,try those,then 1 again...any ideas?

The red words are "Problem here" just incase anyone is wondering.

Nice! Going along well! But I have a suggestion for the Hog's skin. Put frost on the windshield. You know, how your cars windo panes look like in the morning in the winter?

xnodunitx · Post by **xnodunitx** » Sat Dec 04, 2004 6:34 pm

If I can find the texture or whatever part that is the windshield of the warthog I will,I tried what I thought what was it earlier but wound up painting the entire inside of the hog...that didnt look too nice...but currently I am trying to change level textures,but some of it is givin me hell,the grass for one,well I might be able to get past that...trying to change the water texture..wel I did but I can't tell if it worked,plus later I'm going to give MC some snow on the boots next and such,but currently my biggest issue is that sky piece,which looks rather..odd ingame.
