HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

I never realized it was this simple...

An issue that Lebow and I have been having--one of the only two still impeding the release of "Night Death Island"--has been solved. And it was as simple as injecting the two swamp water shaders from C10 (343 GS) into DI with a rebuild. Now the too-bright water destroying the feel of the night map is no longer a problem.

I took some screenshots of the new water in a couple of configurations, but it saddened me to find out that my favorite quick-upload site (junk.paulm.com) had its bandwidth overloaded by some halo modder distributing a FULL MOD (something I have never done). So can anyone recommend a good free site that allows direct linking to hosted images? I'd really love to show you guys what this looks like.

submit files forum allows you to submit pics

what? did you hear something?

you da man Valor... Now I can finish my mod, minus the pelican for now...

Great, good stuff. I have the two screenshots posted here for you to check out.

Should I also post a RAR of the dark water map for you guys to play with?

YES! that would be a veeeerrrrrryyyyy good idea.

Ah crap, well I just had a problem today with my main computer and I won't have access to the map for several days.

In the meantime, here's a detailed tutorial for how to create the dark water...

-Open map "c10" in HMT3.
-Scroll down to the tag section, "Shader Water".
-Highlight the first of the two tags in that section and recursive save the meta.
-Rebuild Death Island with the saved meta files added.
-Open the rebuilt DI map in HMT.
-Scroll to the "Shader Water" section, you should now see three tags, including the one from c10.
-Copy the meta value from the swamp water tag into both the other water shader tags in that section, save the tags after pasting.
-Play the new DI map in Halo and marvel at the dark, murky water.

Uh... I sure hope that those pics weren't what the actual mod is gonna look like... because it's not night and all...

no hes just showing us that he figured out how to make the water look dark as if it was gonna be in teh night mod
