Delta halo UI

[Rook]

DELTA HALO UI FUCKING WHERE

[Bastinka]

This should've been a PM to l33t or timo.

[Choking Victim]

zteam was in no way associated with that ui, thats the hard work of jcap, snaf, Timo, Conscars and others. Theres been so many threads on this the answers always the same "snaf hasn't finished the bsp".

[Rook]

Okay.. I see the bsp isn't finished.. well I hope the delta ui is done by the end of this year.. It looks awesome.

also sorry I just was sure a old thread at cmt.haloimpulse.com fourms Had it as "zteam delta halo ui".

[Archon23]

Lets just say that Snaf has had "some" trouble in getting the bsp done.

[Zeph]

Still waiting on the bsp to be finished. I believe Snafubar is the one working on it, but he's got bigger things to work on. He's said he'll finish it, but I dont know if he ever will.

[jcap]

Release with different bsp? y/n?

[Archon23]

:f5: Y! Y! Y! Y! Y!

[Rook]

Release with different bsp? y/n?
I would say yes, you could do one right now and do delta halo ui later.. they would both be sweet.:)

[Archon23]

Man first we get Church now we might get a partially finished Delta UI this has (or will be) a glorious week.

[Rook]

Man first we get Church now we might get a partially finished Delta UI this has (or will be) a glorious week.
Yes that is so true.:D:XD::eek: Give jcap +rep if he releases the ui with a different bsp.

[Mass]

Man first we get Church now we might get a partially finished Delta UI this has (or will be) a glorious week.

you could combine them and use church as the backround BSP, mb.

Or just use like delta ruins or fragment.

[SnaFuBAR]

jesus christ on a bycicle i guess i should finish that main temple.

EVEN BETTER!

[Stealth]

Release with different bsp? y/n?
yes, maybe with a Halo 3 theam? like con's halo 3 map he's making for H2V? but as a UI?

jesus christ on a bycicle i guess i should finish that main temple.
jesus christ can ride a bike? oh well, that'll be nice to see the main temple done and out of the way.

[Mass]

jesus christ on a bycicle i guess i should finish that main temple.

yes. And I wonder if jesus takes shortcuts over ponds...?

[SnaFuBAR]

bbl, modeling detla temple... for the 2nd time....

[Pooky]

Release with different bsp? y/n?

Yes, I would rather have the classic installation 04, maybe with updated shaders.

[Rook]

Yes, I would rather have the classic installation 04, maybe with updated shaders.
Thats a great idea. :woop:

[Con]

no thats gay, we have something better planned.

[DaneO'Roo]

Yaya Snaf is in da zone.

[Rook]

no thats gay, we have something better planned.
*year plus later*

So what's the plan con? :awesome:

[SnaFuBAR]

TROOOOOLLLLL /boxxybabee

[Boba]

Why do people still care about this? I certainly don't.

[Syuusuke]

Because YOU Don't play Halo CE anymore.

Neither do I =D

[AAA]

I still care. I miss this project so much...

[Masterz1337]

Kirby was working on finishing a bsp, but there was a conflict of max versions and I think he stopped.

[Heathen]

:[ I was hoping for an update.

[SnaFuBAR]

No Delta Halo UI is ever getting finished. I don't even remember who was working on texturing my bsp last.

[NuggetWarmer]

CMT finish it gogogogogogogogo

[Limited]

Theres 3 things I cant wait for release.

1. Yoyorast Island 2
2. Delta UI
3. Last Stand.

[SnaFuBAR]

i hate you.

[Heathen]

Last Stand?

Also, please finish this man....

[SnaFuBAR]

CMT finish it gogogogogogogogo
Yeah um, no. My work has nothing to do with CMT. You a fanboy that thinks everything great is associated with CMT?

[mech]

Last stand looked gay.

[SnaFuBAR]

that was a learning curb for me and the community. nobody had bothered to detail insides of buildings like that before. The project was handed off to a few guys that really wanted to texture it, but it was just too much for anyone at the time.

Mech you're gay dude. <3

All the Delta Halo UI tags are on that vista drive. Some people have the UI but there's updated pause menus for multiplayer/single player that nobody else has.

[Bad Waffle]

fuck. i just pmed jcap to see if we could use it for hrh

[Masterz1337]

I have the CMT pause menu and the regular standard pause menu too, if you need either. Pretty sure I have almost all the tif's as well.

[Bad Waffle]

welp masters, rar it all up and rapidshare it, pm me the link

[Rook]

Help Timo fix his computer problems then release with any bsp tbh.

[NuggetWarmer]

Yeah um, no. My work has nothing to do with CMT. You a fanboy that thinks everything great is associated with CMT?

No, I'm on CMT. Masterz has talked about using the Delta Halo UI for the new CMT SPV2 UI, and since nobody seems to be, well, finishing DHUI, I thought CMT could pick up the project.

[Bad Waffle]

http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/3857/ringth5.jpg

workin on ze ring for a bit

Welp, masters didn't send me a full set of ui tags--theres a lot of stuff missing like bitmaps, the main widgets, etc, so if somebody has the actual compiled map if they could send it to me so i could just rip em to my tagset i would love them forever

[Timo]

I fixed the issue I had with my vista drive, so everything is still alive on my end.

[Cortexian]

I fixed the issue I had with my vista drive, so everything is still alive on my end.
And...

Upload!

[Timo]

It's alright now - I have it on two drivers, and WoL has a copy.

[Rook]

Yeah yeah upload

[Timo]

If I was going to upload for safe keeping it'd be the tags, not the ui itself.

[Heathen]

ghey.

I need this to sustain life.

[Bodzilla]

WHY

What good is it doing anybody just sitting on your computer. There are many people (raises hand) who would like to use it now.

If you want to keep working on it later, that's great but if not it's far better to have it out there (now while some people still play the fucking game) then in another year or two.

Seriously, it makes absolutely no sense to keep pissing the "oh we're still working on it/it's not done yet" when the UI in the pictures in the origional fucking post of the origional fucking thread on this site showed the UI in a perfectly workable setup. :eyesroll:

[t3h m00kz]

I'm all for seeing a release.

I'd like to have it myself as well, and if a final version is released in the future I would have no qualms about updating from the version we'd receive now.

[Rook]

Yeah you should release the ui now. ;) The game has already went to hell hard since 05 to what it is now. Kinda scared to see what it will be in another year.

[.Wolf™]

Oh i remember this first time i joined gbx forums and i saw Delta Halo Ui..Matter fact that was the first topic i checked:DHope it gets finnished..

[p0lar_bear]

Seriously, it makes absolutely no sense to keep pissing the "oh we're still working on it/it's not done yet" when the UI in the pictures in the origional fucking post of the origional fucking thread on this site showed the UI in a perfectly workable setup. :eyesroll:

The UI elements are long done. However, they're looking for a map to put it with. A beautifully polished main menu looks so horribly out of placed with a bland-ass Halo ring.

[Inferno]

Portent?

[Rook]

I can completely agree with that statement, but as previously said by someone else release version 1 of it now with halo ring or some other map, and if it ever gets fully completed release that.

What even needs to be done to the bsp for it?

[Timo]

What even needs to be done to the bsp for it?

Either of these:


No, I'm on CMT. Masterz has talked about using the Delta Halo UI for the new CMT SPV2 UI, and since nobody seems to be, well, finishing DHUI, I thought CMT could pick up the project.

But if both are done they'll be released as seperate uis.
I have hope but it seems that everytime the project picks up pace because of a bump it dies out pretty fast :(

[SnaFuBAR]

i finished the fucking bsp. someone needs to texture it.

[Apoc4lypse]

This. lawl

[Higuy]

Dano mb do eet?

[Bad Waffle]

holy shit, how much needs to be textured on the bsp? without the temples, i could probably do it in an hour.

[Disaster]

I'll volunteer.
Shouldn't be to hard.

[Boba]

Does anybody have the textures connor made? That would probably help out a lot. :X

iirc he volunteered to do it months ago, but never got around to it.

Well you're over half way there, finish it 100% and you get some luvins from me.

[n00b1n8R]

But what is wrong with the altered death island used in the OOP?

[TeeKup]

You're arguing with perfectionist, you won't win.

[Heathen]

I wouldn't care if it was just blank.

Floating in the void of space.

[n00b1n8R]

You're arguing with perfectionist, you won't win.
Perfectionism has it's place, but it's better to have a near-perfect release than no release at all.

YOU CAN RELEASE A BETTER VERSION LATER IF YOU MAKE ONE.

[TeeKup]

But you must remember that this is technically a piece of art. They want that piece to be completed as is, they don't want a numbed down version. To do so is insulting to the artist.

[Masterz1337]

The art is the ui. I don't think anyonr really cares what bsp it is.

[TeeKup]

The BSP artist does. :|

[Masterz1337]

If any of the people who are working on BSPs for the Delta UI really cared it would have been done by now.

[Heathen]

iirc, which I am sure I do because it was said like 6 posts ago, the BSP is done...

[n00b1n8R]

The model is, the skin isn't.

Just give it a pretty blue sort of thing like what Bungie did with the H2 UI.

[Bad Waffle]

Well, i just finished the new halo BSP, so all thats left is the finishing touches to the ui

[Heathen]

or do like the bonus CD for halo 3 did with valhalla...that was cool.

[n00b1n8R]

Well, i just finished the new halo BSP, so all thats left is the finishing touches to the ui
GO!! GO!! GO!!

[Heathen]

Oh my...this might get finished after all.

[sdavis117]

I'm just waiting for another hard-drive malfunction. It's like this project has been cursed.

I hope it does get finished though.

[supersniper]

Woah thought this was scrapped long ago. Well glad to see some progress.

[Bad Waffle]

I'm technically doing this for HRH, but it's no sweat off my back to just do it to complete this UI

[n00b1n8R]

Still with the "press enter to continue"?
I never did get what that was all about.

Incidentally, is there an admire option? (removes everything from screen except the sexy bsp, then press any key to return to the menu)? It's been so long I can't remember.

[supersniper]

Yes Admire button is needed but don't do it like it was done in yoyorast Island and replace the credits... When I beat the SP I went to admire instead of the credits (I'm not complaining though)

But what happened to the Delta Halo BSP?

[n00b1n8R]

Nothing.

For 2 years.

Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous.

New land on it maybe?

You're joking right?you could've just answered instead of being an ass. Sorry but that was a serious question sorry to disappoint you.

[Bad Waffle]

I wanted to do some new highres land, but the bitmap is 128x2048, if i was to make it larger the width would be too much for halo to handle :(

[Heathen]

He said that because that has been addressed IN LENGTH over the last few pages...

[Timo]

Could you not split the inner ring up into two parts and have them animate seamlessly? (I honestly have no idea)

[Bad Waffle]

Actually timo, thats a good idea. I could have two (or more) connecting bitmaps and upsize those individually. But, i have no idea how to paint landmasses and i don't know where to find them. If anybody wants to help out there...please post some links.

[SnaFuBAR]

Perfectionism has it's place, but it's better to have a near-perfect release than no release at all.

YOU CAN RELEASE A BETTER VERSION LATER IF YOU MAKE ONE.
The enthusiasm is nice, but they agreed not to release without my bsp... idk why. I told Timo to go ahead and just have basic textures applied and blue filter it.

What do you guys think?

[n00b1n8R]

If by basic textures + blue filter you mean like the H2 UI, then that sounds great to me.

Having a revamp of the original ring in space is pretty bad ass. I'd accept that as a placeholder till the final version gets done. ;D Honestly, any sort of release would be awesome.

For the SPV1 UI, Zeph did a new multi map set for the rind, looked really nice. I can send it to you if you want. Also, Lag rebuilt the T&R's top section, if you wanted to use it in the sky BSP, along with the Halo ring, you could probably make a really sweet UI with the sexified Halo ring, the sky edited to be like real blackness with stars, none of the purple blue hue, and cruisers in the background. What CMT has is free for you to use in the UI if you wish.

[Bad Waffle]

already fixed the shinyness, and cruisers would ruin it. Too hard to implement with size differences.

[n00b1n8R]

You couldn't make mini crusers to hover over the ring/fly around it in random places?

And don't make it pitch black with white dots like the SPV1 UI. That shit was fucking ugly. :gonk:
There's a good reason all space sims have fucksex:aaaaa: skys. They look awesome.

[Timo]

The only thing that can animate in a UI is textures, so nothing can move (ships, bipeds etc). If there were ships they'd be in one place :\

If everything was to scale, wouldn't the ships be tiny dots and pale in comparison to the size of the halo ring? I know I was talking to you over aim about this but I just clicked.

[n00b1n8R]

Perhaps the ships could be much higher above the ring and the camera passes closer to them?

Sort of like the ships in these cutscenes:
W0vc4buLxuQ
FFaNvs3TFCw

[Rook]

Heh, looks great.

[Lateksi]

I really like how it is right now :o The Halo in black space is just so cool and mysterious. Like the original UI, but much more BADASS!

[Apoc4lypse]

You could put high charity somewhere in the background in space... doesn't exactly fit the story tho heh.

E: Or just put the POA in there somewheres, model or bitmap in the background... itd be hella sick if when it first started it could show life pods entering the rings atmosphere somehow haha, I never knew uis could only use animated textures/shaders.

[.Wolf™]

Make the broken Halo ring that is shown in halo 2:P

[NuggetWarmer]

Or why not have the one from Halo 3 that was being rebuilt? I believe it was installation 4, correct?

[.Wolf™]

Or the ark!?:D

[sdavis117]

Or the Deathstar?

But in all seriousness, I liked the clean normal ring. Makes me feel calm. Feels inviting, yet all powerful. No ships, no spacestations, just a ring and some stars.

[.Wolf™]

High Charity?:)Yeah but the other places would be nice:)For a change..If Delta Halo Island was finnished...

[p0lar_bear]

I actually prefer the plain ring because there's practically no BSP to load, so the UI opens and run quicker.

[Lateksi]

^ I agree. But if you have to do an UI with the island bsp or extra stuff around the ring, please make this one an option. It's so clean and awsum ^^

[Timo]

I think they'll both be eventually released. If you want a definite answer spam the hell out of jcap's PM box with a link to this thread, so he won't ignore you like he ignores me half the time http://sa.tweek.us/emots/images/emot-3.gif

[t3h m00kz]

Really, the original Installation 04 would make the most sense since it's Halo 1. The broken ring would KIND OF make sense since that's how the game ended, but still.

Halo 1 had a bad ass UI bsp imo, and a revamp would be a great idea.

[n00b1n8R]

I beat H1 on the xbox the other day for the first time in ages and facepalm'd at how much better the credits were compared to the PC (I actually wanted to watch it :v:).
j5yMzliY3tY
Would it be possible to implement something more like this?

[Syuusuke]

What the hell, why the hell does the PC version have to look so crappy?

Don't tell me because they had to compensate for friggin slow ass PC's it's a goddamn BIK-video file.

Waveman, can I suggest a little something?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/Image_000032.jpg

I think you guys should swap that Master Chief bitmap out with a render of Yours/Dano's Master Chief (No offense to Veegie what-so-ever) just because this is Halo 1 UI, after all.

[Bad Waffle]

I like this idea boba :D

[Heathen]

Does it have any textures atm?

Wol/Dano's mc I mean.

E: *Looks up*

nvm

[Bad Waffle]

Danes been working on them. He sent me a version of the diffuse a day or two ago, even without bumps (or 'baked' ones) it looks nice on the mc

we just gotta wait for him to finish

[n00b1n8R]

Is this still going to be closed source?
It's been so long I've forgotten.

[Bad Waffle]

The ring bsp will be released as that is mine. though, i'm going to hold onto it until HRH is farther down the line. We're gonna release all the tags at the same time.

CMT is being very stubborn about not including this in SPV2. It seems that having them release it in V2 is the only way it will GET released... =/

E: Before any other CMT members -rep me about that, I'm just saying that giving the Delta Halo UI team a deadline would actually get it done.

[n00b1n8R]

I have all the source stuff, and the tags can be ripped from the main menu.

Also, you said you were too busy to work on it :|

And Connor was last working on a simple BSP

[Rook]

as n00b said the death island version was perfect.

cammon guys!

[Higuy]

Soo why can't you guys just release it (like a beta), and if you actually ever finish it release a "final"
There's plenty of people who would probally like to play with it and use it.

[Ki11a_FTW]

Doesnt the BSP still need to be unwrapped? I could unwrap it for you guys if you want.

No, we still have it. Connor was doing his thing with it before Revelations.

[Heathen]

Heh, forgot about this and how pumped I was, but you guys really should release it.
Even if it doesn't have the planned BSP, you wouldn't want this beauty to go down with all the other unreleased projects.

[t3h m00kz]

Releasing it with Death Island would be good enough for me.

That's my favorite map anyway.

[Boba]

I don't remember, did we even get the music compiled? :confused2:

Wow, I had no idea that this was based off the H2 Beta UI ._.

[Arteen]

To me, it just looks silly since they aren't lining up with anything. They line up with the circle design in the beta pic, at least. Are you guys going to add a similar visual element to the UI?

[Inferno]

I think it looks interesting.

Why make them all line up? BE A REBEL FUCK ALIGNMENT!

[Rook]

New version concept sketches are much nicer.

That concept looks sexy what is the multi-year holdup!

[jcap]

You've never seen the new concept...

[Rook]

I was talking about the old one itp.

[supersniper]

DAMN! just release the old one :(
I swear rook we should make a release the Delta UI group or something.

[Lateksi]

Yeah the old version looks as awesome as when I first saw it! If, for some reason, you won't never create a new one, please release the old one. It would be veeery popular.

[t3h m00kz]

What's the harm in releasing an old build? Release a new one and I guarantee all of us are gonna be on it like flies on a pile of shit.

Okay maybe that wasn't the best comaparison

[StankBacon]

in for leak

[Arteen]

I'm not sure what the hold-up is, anyway. Is the UI still unfinished, or did you just want that custom bsp done for it?

[Timo]

There's been about 5 different attempts at BSPs for this UI, all of which that disappear somewhere along the line :\ Jcap wants to redo everything now, too.

Personally, i'm keen to have it released just with the original halo ring, maybe with a higher res texture.

[p0lar_bear]

Don't forget the multipurpose bitmaps.

[Inferno]

I would unwrap the BSP if it was small enough.

[supersniper]

in for leak
Second that.

[SnaFuBAR]

I would unwrap the BSP if it was small enough.

yeah um, it's really not a small bsp. it's the whole delta halo lake.

[Inferno]

Fuck. Is it mainly just tileable textures or lots of strip textures?

Or does it require like a full unwrap with a custom bitmap?

[SnaFuBAR]

i think it could be tileable.

ps i'll give you the mp bsp based off of it for the infernal map pack if you want it.

JUST GET THE FUCKER DONE. that is all.

smiley face.

[Heathen]

Yes, please dont "redo everything" without releasing this version first.

DHUIv1
then come back with
DHUIv2

[Inferno]

Lol another map for IMP. That makes 11.

BRING IT ON!

[Disaster]

Lol another map for IMP. That makes 11.

BRING IT ON!
If you need any textures I'm your man :)

[Inferno]

If you need any textures I'm your man :)

Might need some delta halo textures. Maybe CAD could provide the h2 ones?

[Timo]

Con released a pack of delta halo textures that were going to be used for the UI, search them up on halomaps.

[Inferno]

Uhhh... Search for what? There are a million results for delta halo textures.

[Con]

[Siliconmaster]

Wow- the moment this thread appeared again everyone just jumped on it. I'd totally forgotten about it- any sort of release would be awesome, and follow-up versions would be even better, I'm sure.

[English Mobster]

I still have the Delta Halo textures, they're modified versions of the ones from B30. I can send them to you, if you'd like.

E: D'oh! I totally missed Con's post.

[SnaFuBAR]

welp, having a bit of a problem finding the UI bsp, but I did find the multiplayer bsp, which inferno has now.

you guys will really need to cheer him on with that one, it's one hell of an undertaking.

[Ki11a_FTW]

I just gave him my deltahalo sky, your welcome

[Inferno]

I think I can I think I can I think I can.

Also killa gets some rep.

[Siliconmaster]

Good luck Inferno! No pressure- it's not like we're all watching intently. Extremely intently.


:jibbly:

[TVTyrant]

http://www.hivclan.net/hivshack/images/cukb23chgzyizxqxh8e1.jpg
That looks fuckin great. Why not just release that version? I say v1 and v2.

[Timo]

Because it'd be pretty lame if we just dumped Snaf's bsp, like we tried to do.

[Heathen]

well dont change the way it looks
just the bsp
any alterations to the UI should be in v2

[Timo]

But why release two versions, when the one will be infinitely better ;)



e: Unless someone we trusted with this ui decides to leak it, it's highly unlikely that you will see a release until the final product.

[Siliconmaster]

Noted. Man, I remember years ago this was one of the projects I used as an example to convince a friend that CE could still look beautiful. :P And now here we are using the same argument (to good purpose) once again.

[Heathen]

:[ just promise not to fuck up what you have now.
Why mess with success, I guess I am saying, but I trust the names associated not to do anything bad.

[Inferno]

Yeah I agree with heathen. Why not release the awesome one you have right now and then make a different version?

[English Mobster]

INFERNO, SIR, GET ON XFIRE.

Anyway, I think just release the Death Island one now, because, from the looks of things, it'll be a while before Inferno gets that damn thing textured. <3 ily

[Timo]

It's not 100% finished. This thread is going around in circles - as I said it's highly unlikely that there'll be a release now, although when the final is released, it *might* come with different bsps.

So yeah, there's no point asking us to release something now, because that probably won't happen.

[t3h m00kz]

Will it ever BE done?

[Timo]

heh, probably not.

e: if it's not released on the day I leave this community, i'll release it.

[MetKiller Joe]

As my dad once said, "Sometimes, you've just got to shoot the engineer and release the damned software."

[English Mobster]

heh, probably not.

e: if it's not released on the day I leave this community, i'll release it.
And you're not going to be leaving anytime soon, right?
Right?
:saddowns:

[Inferno]

Oh this? Oh its nothing. Just a little something I've been cooking up.

This is too god damn sexy to have shot tags.

[English Mobster]

Sure. You show me the CRAPPY version of these on Xfire. Then go post and flaunt your sexy map.
Yeah. Just like you.

[MetKiller Joe]

Harbinger? (http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/7044/harbingertj7.jpg)

Also, I thought this was Snaf's?

Would be beyond awesome in the Delta Halo UI.

[Inferno]

He gave it to me to unwrap for delta.

Also why did you quote all the images lol.

[Siliconmaster]

Hot damn that is pretty. I'd take it with cool shadings on white. :P And why was Harbringer never a map? o_0 Because it looks incredible.

[Inferno]

It's going to be in IMP now. It looks like a interesting CTF map and might be great on Stationary KOTH.

[p0lar_bear]

If a UI is not released using the awesome bitmaps and layouts shown in Bacon's post in two months I will drop the forums database.

Without backing it up.

You have been warned.

Actually not, everyone in the staff would fucking kill me if I did.

[Futzy]

Looks amazing, but in need of DEE's lightmapping.

[Choking Victim]

Looks amazing, but in need of DEE's lightmapping.
You mean the lightmapping method that anyone with basic rendering knowledge can accomplish? The lightmapping method firescythe created Aether for? The lightmapping method jahrain was using years before dee conjured it? Is that the lightmapping method to which you are referring?

Just saying that the lightmaps don't look as good as they could. No need for that.

[Hunter]

Just saying that the lightmaps don't look as good as they could. No need for that.

I think he was just making it obviouse that DEE is not the founder of that lightmapping method. I do find it annoying how when someone refers to that lightmapping method DEE is always mentioned. All he did was make a tutorial for it.

[Choking Victim]

Just saying that the lightmaps don't look as good as they could. No need for that.
There is a need, certain people shouldn't be credited for things that have been done in the past by people with skills that surpass the current user by a longshot. But that's just me.

Nothing against you personally.

[t3h m00kz]

I think the fact that DEE posts in every thread about lightmapping may have something to do with it, too.

Seems to be a good technique though, I'm not much of a mapper but if I lightmap it up I'll likely use his tut.

[supersniper]

Meh here's a promise, if the UI is released in 2 months I'll make a map...

[Heathen]

If its released in 2 months I will post pictures of me in a dress :downs:

srsly

[supersniper]

ahahaha!
:')

[Inferno]

Why would you torture us with a picture like that heathen? No one wants there eyes burned out. Are you trying to get us to wait longer than 2 months?

[Siliconmaster]

If its released in 2 months I will post pictures of me in a dress :downs: I'll do it now so you don't have to.

http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/3305/n1146390108300261745845.jpg

Yeah, that's me. On the left. A year ago. :cool:

2 Months or I did that in vain. Go.

Edit: Timo's right. Spoiler'd- now let's get back on topic.

[Inferno]

Well sadly I am now blind and typing on a brail keyboard.

I hope your happy.

[supersniper]

I think that's pretty damn funny, did you lose a bet?

[Timo]

This thread isn't about cross dressers, it's about the delta halo ui. PM him :||

[Inferno]

Well. I'm placing a ass ton of instanced geometry that is being put in as scenery.

I really really really really hope we don't have to rescale the map.

[Masterz1337]

Just saying that the lightmaps don't look as good as they could. No need for that.
Why would he make good light maps for that when he will be discarding them by tonight?

[Ki11a_FTW]

.

[Inferno]

What masterz said.

Also I'm not sure if this is true but because the playable area of the map is so small in comparison to the unplayable areas, won't the light maps be lower rez on the actual played part of the level?

Or am I just stupid.

[Con]

I guess I have some explaining to do. I was waiting until after the rev sky to finish this, and I've done some work on it recently. How much does jcap want it changed? I just proceeded with the plan we had discussed and came up with this:
http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/1103/46935715.jpg

That's just an edited max shot, but it could look something like this. I just threw some shitty UV's onto the mesh since you wont see it up close from this view. Perhaps Inferno can use this as a concept or something.

[Inferno]

I'm really doing this for the MP part. But once it's unwrapped you can use if for the UI.

[Con]

that works

If those artefacts are meant to be "cool" or something, they really aren't.
Or is it just terrible compression?

It was just a quick edit, he probably edited an image with the logo in it already. Sheesh.

[Inferno]

Yeah halo menus are meant to look very clean. It's just the halo style.

[Roostervier]

Bob's right. He got the text from a screenshot. And the background he used was a screengrab from a 3ds max viewport. <_<

[Ki11a_FTW]

I never really liked how all of Halo's UI's (excluding the first) had that blue tint, it looks 10x better without it imo

[n00b1n8R]

alright, alright sheesh sorry.

[Pooky]

I never really liked how all of Halo's UI's (excluding the first) had that blue tint, it looks 10x better without it imo

^

After years of playing Halo 2, then Halo 3, I'm extremely sick of blue menu screens :\

[n00b1n8R]

Just release a nonblue version too vOv
Unless it's not a filter and actually the BSP's texture..

[Ki11a_FTW]

Unless it's not a filter and actually the BSP's texture..

Its a script that sets a desired effect over the screen, so yeah if some people liked the blue, there would need to be 2 versions

[jcap]

The blue is necessary for the UI. I'm really not joking. Because of the low detail and lack of textures, it's needed to obscure the slacking.

[Heathen]

Besides, that's kind of ridiculous.
Then we can release a few versions for those who don't like the font.
And maybe a few who don't like the music.
I personally rather linkin park for a ui :downs: jk

[Inferno]

Fuck that.
Suicide Silence UI (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJJrIQsCTcQ)

[StankBacon]

no music at all would be preferred, but if they are going to put music it better damn be halo music.

[Reaper Man]

I think it'd be cool if the menu was all clean, then it just flickered to that static every so often.
