lol @ philly
I has a prettier red one :p.
i bet you do, i made this in roughly 4 minutes with a hex editor

Why didn't you just use esh?

because it would have taken significantly longer. You would have to edit every reticle, every hud interface, etc, instead of a quick find and replace for all hud colors at once.

I'll accept the HUD! After all, whats ruby without red? How about making something with the oversheild red transition?

A little birdy sent me a message asking if this statement was in reference to me. Let me first say I am no where near a "god" of modding. If im a "god" then who are quag, forge, conure, decoy? Cause thoes are some of the few I draw influence from. Im simply a dude who has good friends with great patience and honest feedback that helped me bring a dream I had to make Halo better a reality. Nothing less, nothing more.

But I think ill finally take a few mins to drop some of my personal opinions on this project as im seeing them. These a5re in no particular order but how their coming to me.

1. Andrew, the UI layout. Stop begging for credit for it. The only reason your asking for some is that someone has a hot topic your semi a part of and you want to ride their success. If you actually finish a mod then maybe you'll have more credit to your name then coming off as a leech. Im just being honest dude.

2. Caboose, Pat, JK and others. Cool beans helping Blarg out giving him ideas. Its good to see people working together trying to make a mod work then picking it apart senseless.

3. Blarg, Just cause these people are helping you, you need to aslo try to take there work and put your own personal flair on it to make it "your own". You need to give them original credit of course, but if you take the time to tweek what they have done and spin it futher it will add more success to your mod then simply "adding to a mod what people gave you".

4. The whole "Ruby" thing is a decent theme but then again it does need more to it besides alot of "redness" all around. You should pick a color that compliments red well like black for instance and tie that color into this as well. Honestly when I think of the name "Halo: Ruby" im instantly thinking about the Pokemon series of game for Gameboy and chuckle a tad.

5. So whats better then "Ruby" without loosing all my work? How about something like "Halo: Vermilion".

Vermilion:

The Halo logo is good, but so id Caboose Jr's. If we could mix them together somehow... Also, I'm not too sure people will know the word vermilion. You gotta admit, I realy got the idea of the name from pokemon ruby. I'll try to come up with something better. How about making the planet in the background of the ui onyx? Or making the galaxy a mighty Master Cheif god? (Only the ui, not campaign)

CabooseJr · Post by **CabooseJr** » Mon Mar 17, 2008 6:56 am

I'll try to contact pepsi so I can try to get both logos merged together.

@Blarg= Why don't you make a new UI. Try doing a UI in CE and convert it back into PC, instead of having old boring halo ring.

Yeah pepsi...but i wasnt trying to leech credit. Yes i havn't made a mod, i have been focusing on my life. The reason why i still visit is because i like to see what people are making. Plus i need some programming help here and there.

Also: Get on xfire?

haha I thought about that too...

You should get one that matches the theme of your mod... meaning that
using one provided by someone else probably won't look right..

Patrickh, Can you sent the HUD? And hiheyhello, not too bad of ideas. What ui can match the ruby theme? I wanted to do extinction, but failed.

It's a bit messy, 30 second job, but do something like this for some sort of easter egg.
