Fracture, a large canyon wide, Valhalla style map. This map is trying to bring large vehicle battles, while still having that touch of close 1vs1 combat.
Recommended players: 12 - 16 (lol, its big)

Side Notes:

Fracture, was technically started by Sheer. He showed me it, and then, we started working on it together. Then Disaster came around and started helping. We made a team, TM. We also threw DEEhunter, and Advancebo in to the mess as well. It's been about 7 months since it was started, 3 of it wasted by waiting for maniac to finish textureing, which we hope he will finish. In the mean time, we are releasing version 1 of Fracture. Version 2, will have many of the bugs fixed, and new weapons and other things in it.

Bug's in v1
Since I completely messed up my max file of fracture, it has no portals =] so some faces disappear
Some of the terrain near the middle structure is a little screwed, shouldn't be too big of a problem though
Covenant crates has weird collision (You can sit on top of it partially)

Recognition to people who helped:
Killa_FTW - Let us use some awesome scenery!
Wolf - Repopulated the entire map after one of the beta's being to lagy.
Adumbass - Helped fix a bunch of errors to get it ingame
CMT - let us use there CMT Tensity sky tags, and show us in the right direction's in a few things.
All the beta testers - you beta'd the map, were thanking you for that :P
GGL - making that trailer about 3 months ago
Almost forgot you, Veex! - he did the banshee shaders.

TM is,
Higuy
Disaster
Sheer
Deelekgolo
Advancebo

Looks great, downloading.

[Joshflighter]

I'm in the credits.. :p

Also, finally! Awesome! :)

[SMASH]

Looks nice, waiting for the DL link... I'll play once you get it up.

[Invader Veex]

Cool, can't wait to play!

[CodeBrain]

Beta test on saturday, with teh bunghole?

Sounds like fun!

Edit: If you successfully got this map ingame (which i see in the screenshots), use the Halo CE BSP Extractor on Halomaps, gets you a perfect bsp *almost* everytime.

I say almost because I used it with bloodgulch, and it didn't want to compile due to open edges.

[Sabre]

am I blind or is there no download link?
Win map is Win.

[Roostervier]

Looks neat. Modeling could be a bit better, but it's not bad.

[Angatar]

Higuy's connection decided to die and the upload failed. Someone else is uploading for him.

[Higuy]

After playing it, as said in game, i like the map very much, nice scenery, shadows are nice, banshee is cool, the terrain is amazingly awesome. It's just a bit Very sad that i cant play it if i turn off specular, turn the detail to medium, take away shadows and put particles on low with the resolution set to 460x600...

Damn my laptop sucks -_-

[StankBacon]

very nice looking map, good job.

[Disaster]

Thank you everybody who I got to work with on this map. I really had a blast and learned alot about modeling and methods that work.

[Inferno]

Nice to see this finally released. Good job.

[Advancebo]

Theres a version 2 coming along with new textures for the structure, better lightmaps (I think), and portals on the map.

[killer9856]

Thank you everybody who I got to work with on this map. I really had a blast and learned alot about modeling and methods that work.

YOUR WELCOME BUDDY

I'm pretty sure I made another version of that sky without snow at the bottom of the mountains, and it would've matched the map better. The map reminds me of mystic, we should get it going on a gamenight.

The serious cat is right.

[Higuy]

I'd love to see a gamenight with this included. I probally wouldn't be able to play though. Oh well, if you guys do tell me how it was :)
Thanks for all the support guys, I hope this turns out to be a awesome map and my team's work putting this together was well worth it.

[.Wolf™]

I´ll be there:)

[killer9856]

The "gamenight" is Saturday night right?

[Lateksi]

The map reminds me of Mystic and Danger Canyon for some reason. I like it but I've only played it once with 2 players... If you plan to make another release, include the sky Con made (?) and fix some of those clippings cause there were LOTS of 'em. But yeah, really nice map.

Edit:
For the v2, it is going to be snow. It will be a LOT better, with some cool chages Is this true?

[KiLLa]

Clutter.

[Higuy]

Clutter? Also yes, we might do a snow theme.

[KiLLa]

You said not to clutter the thread, so I cluttered it with clutter!!
haha, jokes aside..looks pretty awesome, nice to see quality contents still being put out for this old hag :)

[Higuy]
