I've gone to big with my mods. I'm going to do a simple one now. I'm going to make a mod to fit bad graphic cards, like my own. I'm going to be asking those who made bad graphic skins to let me edit them to make them look exactly like good graphics. Like SCORPION-369 made a cyborg one, but the visor was too sharp. In good graphics, it's more blury. Nothing custom, just better looks.

Why don't you do something simple like I was originally going to do. Like PMI timberland trees and rocks, a night sky, a wraith n stuff, and just mod the weapons a tad to make it a lot more fun :wink:

it is 2008. im venturing to say that 95% of this community can see grass in BG. that means you would only be doing this mod for you and maybe 5 other people.

but here you main downfall and im going to be real blunt when i say this.

STOP SKINNG!

your simply not good at it and dont have the gfx card to even notice how bad the skins are you do make. learn to pmi and make other types of mods. if you keep releasing mods that contain custom skins your only setting yourself up for more negativity.

Yes learn how to PMI, convert sp-mp, I have a suggestion convert the interior of a30, as well as covert the energy sword, spartan laser maybe the spiker, all from CE. Dont do a outdoor map to replace to a indoor 1 like chrion or derlict. add some small scener, smoke fire blown up banshee, and then skin when its all done, then you would have a good map to play. Or just covert a sp bsp of your choice add 1 of each type of flood and have a extermination

It's easy to understand what makes a mod fun, but skinning, isn't really essential. Besides, these people with low graphical capabilitys are already suffering with the lowest settings of halo :D
Point is, I don't give much praise for a newly skinned mod, it may look cool, and satisfy me for a few minuits, but having new objects, and modded weapons n' stuff opens a lot for the player to explore and have fun with.

I wouldn't bother skinning, like they said, PMI new stuff, or just mod the weapons n vehicles :wink:

Fine. If no one's interested, can people at least send me skins to match good grfx on bad grfx?

What are grfx? Graphics? If so, there are some spartan skins around the downloads sections. There is no such thing as Good Graphics on a bad graphics cards though, it can be mimicd slightly.
