[WIP] HALO FTW: Refined and Polished

bcnipod · Post by **bcnipod** » Wed Jun 25, 2008 5:43 am

Looks good so far, although the second one down on the left has too much bloom for my liking right now. I would love to help out, let me know if you need me to do anything.

good to see you back pepsi it look's really good right now. Theres a texture on Deathisland that looks like this I found it didn't fit the map too well, not saying its bad, just i think it didn't fit.. Not a major thing but could be changed if you wanted.

Heh. I've forgotten what FTW was like, haven't played Halo for too long.

The only problem I had with it was the fact you got rid of the timer on D40.

Sure it was awesome for roaming around, but it would be nice to see a standalone version where the timer was still there, to keep the sense of "Epicness" that Halo exhibits.

PS: I know this is the wrong place, but does anyone know a tut where I can get a 360 controller to work for PC? I wanna play FTW with it.

yer, thats one thats going to be switched out as well. i never did like that covie thing that was there cause it just so .. umm.. covie i guess. plus its all over the place in halo. i needed to find something to swap it out real quick and thats what i used. all we did was made it seamless and tileable and tweeked it to match the color scheme we had in place. but yea, it will be replaced as well.

kitz, you can release it there, im not going to. im done with the racing community and i think you know why.

andrew, well see if time permits.

jk, gimme some ideas for eggs plz?

bcnipod, the 'bloom' can be controlled easily. this is just to my liking what your seeing.

suggestion:

in the title, the "FTW" part (to me) is hard to see... maybe the texture in it is weird to me or something, but I don't like that part... the rest is very nice...

I think it would be epic if you got Alexei to help you with the planet/sky.

No offense, but I'm pretty sure Alexei is more experienced.

Whether or not he would do it is another thing all together.

He creates really cool planet scenes.

An animated sky like that would be epic.

well i did manage to get some work done in IF tonight and Ness got the logo looking awesome. Just waiting for the new UI to be complete to moce things around as need be. Colors are more viberant and i think i finally got the cave walls to look right and not so tacky looking. also did dome work on the cliff walls and Ness began work on our snow themed hogs for the snow maps.

I vote Alexei to do the planets.

I think i shall keep a close eye on your project of yours pepsi see how things go.
last i saw from you was a total meltdown of emotions lets just hope youve harnessed those emotions into your modding.

all the rock walls to me seem that they are repeating patterns to me.
