So, would adding trees affect gameplay? I can see how they could but also they really help the atmosphere and dont affect it too much.

Tree's don't effect gameplay more than they aesthetically please the eye. I'm sure they are allowed. It's so weird how tree's are pleasing to see in maps all the time. It's like, trees are the first thing to pop into somebody's head when making a map skin or mod. Anyways, sorry for the rambling, ya i'm sure tree's are allowed. Just don't make them the feature of your mod or I for one can guarantee the mod won't go very far.

Are we allowed to add scenary, other than trees? maybe a carrier hovering over the map or blown up debris right out side the level barrier.

Yes. Though I'm not ScottyGEE, I am certain that I can answer this question. You can add anything to visually enhance or alter the map, but nothing (except for trees and other small objects) that alters how the map is played. This means you are unable to use projectile swaps, player-enhancing or inhibiting mods (ie superjump, increased gravity, etc.) and the like. In other words, Burial Mounds should still be burial mounds and it should still play like burial mounds; however, it should not look like the burial mounds that we all know.

The secret prize is better than my artwork...

Hehe, if only I got into the halo 3 beta invite, else you'd win that too....but I didn't, so its another prize

antszy101 · Post by **antszy101** » Tue Feb 13, 2007 9:46 am

I dont have a 360 so the beta invite wouldnt matter anyway
Oh, and are we allowed to remove the turret from the hog? Turrets usually screw up hog skins and they look better without them.

I wasnt saying that I was going to win. I was just stating that If that was the prize, and I DID win, I wouldn't be able to use it.
