I was just wondering if there was any new progress on the map? I believe you said "expect a release this month" well... the month is just about up. haha I don't mean to rush you of course just wanted to hear about the progress. thats all.

High quality version (45MB): http://www.earthenrecords.com/church/church.wmv

I said there'd be a release this month and there is, but it's not the map yet. I've been busy finishing mastering and doing artwork for an album, so that's taken preference over the map.

Note that it now actually looks slightly better than it does in the video, since I'd only run 10 secs of radiosity on it at that point. There's a lot more colour from the windows and teleporters in the final version. I'll be changing the page on my site tomorrow with new hi-res pics of the final map.

Nice, I'm downloading the high res version now.

*twitch*

I'm going to need a new pair of pants.

CrowPath, I'm sorry to inform you but there is no word in the English language that describes the skill and awesomeness that is that map.

Do not be surprised if you get a call from either Bethesa or Bungie. I'm serious. This is way better than many of the maps in quality and quantity.

Admins, could you please put some like "Is the God of all mapmaking" or something under his name? At this point, something like this must be done.

Edit: wait, did you say this isn't full radiosity quality....

Crow, I honestly don't think my eyes can HANDLE this let alone something that is more awesome.

I don't think many people will be playing the map (I'm sure many people will), I think we'll all just be looking at this map for about a year before we start shooting. I think people will be afraid to shoot... I will. Freaking masterpiece.

I second that. When I saw it im like, this is gonna be good but not amzing. when the camera in the first scene came threw the pews my pants and computer chair turned brown. I wanted the map so bad i became strange and started to act like a monkey as i threw my shit everywhere.

AMAZING JOB

I did call him 'map making god' in another language at one point in time, though quickly stopped.

As for the video, I just watched it and wow. Amazing. Incredible. Just wow, words can't even describe it's awesomeness.

LOL your right, when i saw this im like, how could somebody shoot this masterpiece! Then I remembered, were in halo lol.

This is definately gonna be one of those "Don't Shoot the Polish or Be Banned" maps. I am totally beyond amazed at what the Halo engine is capable of, and what YOU are capable of.

You're awesome.
