"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,

[jcap]

...but by the moments that take our breath away."


About six months ago, in about mid-July, the Delta Halo UI Project was started. At first, it was meant to be nothing more than a facelift of the default UI with a new map in the background. As time went on, the UI began to evolve into an entire overhaul of the user interface.

When the project was announced and the first screenshots of the project were revealed to the public, it instantly caught many people’s attention. Being the first of its kind to go the extra mile and do a complete overhaul of everything, the attention quickly grew.

Unfortunately, once September came around, things began to slow down. With summer coming to a close and school starting back up again soon, work was slowed down almost to a complete stop. However, while it became increasingly difficult to coordinate schedules between the Eastern Seaboard and New Zealand time zones, work slowly continued.

Today you are presented with our latest milestone in the project. As of a few hours ago, we are proud to announce that we have reached Beta 2 of the Delta Halo UI Project. The graphical user interface is complete, unless otherwise required to modify due to a bug or a disagreement.

In addition to the latest milestone also comes some announcements. First, we would like to announce that the GUI is not only being applied to the Delta Halo lake scene, but to L33T’s recreation of Mombasa, or the Halo 2 UI. While the level is not L33T’s and rather Bungie’s, he has spent a great deal of time working on getting it in-game. With L33T working on his own Halo 2 mod for Halo CE, this will add the finishing touch to his project. In addition, people will now have a choice in the matter as to what level they would like as their background.

In addition to the extra level, we are also announcing that we decided to venture off from the UI, and look a little more at singleplayer and multiplayer. Being that the tags for the pause menus are contained within the maps, the GUI does not show up if you are anywhere but the main menu. Once the main menu is released, select people will have the option of replacing the default pause menu with the new one. Screenshots of both of these announcements are below.

Sounds and music have also been finalized in this build. The music tracks are Beholden, Peril, Halo (full version), Road to Voi, Impend, and Leonidas. We believe the tracks we chose for the Delta Halo version of the UI will capture the moment and add to the Halo universe theme.

Without further ado, we present you with the pictures and a run through of some of the major changes we have made.

After starting Halo, the first thing you will notice is the fade and blur effect into the screen where you are prompted to “Press Enter to Continue”. For a video of this, click here (http://jcap.h2vista.net/files/videos/ui_fade.wmv). (Ignore the music in the background; it’s just Timo’s media player.)

After pressing enter, you are greeted with a redesigned main menu. In addition to the new images and layout, notice the new cursor, also visible in the other screenshots.

Choosing campaign from the main menu will bring you to the new level selection screen, followed by the difficulty selection. Completely new map images in addition to the

Choosing multiplayer from the main menu will bring you here.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/UI%20Build%2024%2001%2007/MPmenu.jpg

From there, you may select where you would like to go. If you happen to choose to join a game, you will be delivered to the new lobby.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/UI%20Build%2024%2001%2007/Lobby.jpg

If you choose to start your own game, either LAN or Internet, you’re presented with the map selection screen, also with completely new level pictures.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/UI%20Build%2024%2001%2007/Selectmap.jpg

Continuing down the path to creating a new game, or if you choose to edit a gametype, you are given your list of gametypes to choose from.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/UI%20Build%2024%2001%2007/GTselect.jpg

Going back to the main menu, choosing settings will bring you to the new settings screen. A check for updates button has been moved to here, so you are no longer prompted to check for an update every single time you want to enter the server lobby.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/UI%20Build%2024%2001%2007/Settings.jpg

Choosing to edit your player’s options will give you this screen.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/UI%20Build%2024%2001%2007/Options.jpg

If you want to change your controller settings, the previously horrid menu now flows clean with the rest of the menu. The lists have also been switched from their default positions. Instead of the devices in your profile being on the left, they are now on the right, matching today’s standards.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/UI%20Build%2024%2001%2007/Gamepads.jpg

Finally, if you choose to go to the profiles menu, you will be greeted with a completely new menu.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/UI%20Build%2024%2001%2007/Profiles.jpg

If you choose to create a new profile, you will be granted with the “Enter Text” prompt.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/Timo12/UI%20Build%2024%2001%2007/Entertext.jpg

Or if you choose to delete a profile, you will be asked with this prompt. This also applies to any “pop-up” notices or confirmation boxes.

Moving away from the main menu now, here are the two pause menus for singleplayer and multiplayer.

That’s about it for this update. Sorry it took so long since the last one, but this hopefully made up for it. This update might also be the very last one until release. While there are no pictures of the BSP to show right now, there is very little left to do on Snaf’s part, leaving all that’s left to do is to get it textured and in-game. There might be little, minor updates giving you progress on the level design in the future, but expect the next major announcement to be a release date.

[rossmum]

...Wow.

Fucking win.

[Masterz1337]

Awsome, guess you got the menu fixed.

[Pooky]

I think this, along with CMT SP v2, will be enough to give CE the credit it deserves as a completely new kind of Halo.

[dg]

I still use the old beta that Timo gave me. :-)

I love you all so much for making this possible. I can't even imagine the work that has been put into it. Thanks for everything.

It beats like... every UI ever, dude.

For serious.

[Edward Elrich]

I have one thing to say: make sure you put in something for "time of day" so coldsnap players don't get an exception when pausing. (unless the maps have their own independant pause menus and styles.) Also, great job fixing the scroll bugs. I suppose it won't be too bad seeing "scroll up" and "scroll down" in some menus.

edit: isn't that Danger Canyon in the background of the first screen? I thought this was the Delta Halo ui.

[Random]

Aside from what Random just said, tailoring such a great UI to suit such an overplayed and fanboyish map would be stupid. Let 'em exception, I say.

...Except they wouldn't either way.

Amen to that. Anyway I think pooky summed it up in this first post. With the combination of the Delta UI and CMT SPV2, this will truely define what Halo Custom Edition really is.

[Zeph]

I have an old build that barely resembles this. It's amazing to look back on that and see how far it's progressed.

[Stealth]

Wow. I really can't wait to see this come out, that is, well, wow.

[TheGhost]

Wow, absolutely incredible. I've never really used a custom UI before, but I'll definitely be using this. Great work, guys!

[Timo]

Yeah, while uploading those screens I went through my photobucket album looking at some of our early progress screenshots, they were horrible :x

Thanks for the comments, guys!

[Timo]

It's a modified version of Death Island that we're using as a placeholder until the Delta Halo bsp is finished.

[Bodzilla]

like i said at gearbox.
this has been incredibly well done.

and bungie would be proud.

You need to show me more updates >:U

First, we would like to announce that the GUI is not only being applied to the Delta Halo lake scene, but to L33T’s recreation of Mombasa, or the Halo 2 UI.
L33T's Alpha Halo UI looked pretty good, and Halo has a ton of music to complement its theme... is that one going to get spiced up, overlayed with the GUI, and released?

[TeeKup]

I have a single song that could be used for the UI. IMO it brings out the Halo feel VERY well. Its called EdgenHalo. Perhaps some of you have heard it? It really suits something like a tour of grand forerunner structures. Much like the Delta Lake. :)

Both of those are nice. As long as its not the MJOLNIR mix. Good though it is, it has been used far too often.

I hate the song, but I like the version ingame Halo 2: no lyrics, just awesome instrumentals.
I don't think it's a matter of not being suited to taste, but not being suited to the map's theme.

[Pooky]

That's true, this map seems more suited to a tranquil sort of theme, like High Charity. Too bad no one here can write and compose a proper orchestra.

[ExAm]

When this is released, I'm going to try to get someone who can to port it over to Mac & PC, with permission, of course. I know the technique, but it just doesn't work for me. It's not the PC technique, it's a new technique that doesn't produce lighting errors when it's run through HHK (mac modding app), which is a good thing. It also can only be done on the Mac :/

[Timo]

We have a way of porting this to Halo PC, although we don't want people to start getting pissy because we're not releasing the means to do so.

[ExAm]

Meaning? Why not let it be ported? No harm in it.

[Timo]

We just don't want people getting annoyed because we're not giving them the tools to port maps to halo pc.

[Boba]

TO ALL UI TEAM MEMBERS:

I need the main temple model that was completed by neuro some months ago! The bsp is nearing completion, and this is a major component missing!
I'll get that to you if you don't have it already. :eyesroll:

Would anyone really port a box map? Common sense says someone would choose a much cooler map than a box map. There are so many to choose from. Regardless, the problem solves itself.

[Dole]

The more good CE maps that get ported to PC, the lesser the influx of new players to the CE community; a count which is already staggeringly low.

[ExAm]

Point noted... damn, and I was just about to shift into pointless argument mode :(

convert 4 macs plz?

[n00b1n8R]

and though it's been used alot, it doesn't stop it being bad.

how many times have you played retro mario and still found it awsome? (if none, please GTFO!!!)

mjolnir mix is good.

btw, THAT UI FUCKING WINS!!!

The main reason i think it hasnt been released is because the biggest benefit of halo CE are the custom maps.
now considering CE is allready struggling for players wat do u think would happen if the the best Part of CE became available on PC.
it'd be another crushing blow to the CE player base.

[n00b1n8R]

but if we could port them, would we really need CE?

[Bodzilla]

wat Snaf said

[Timo]

And that you can't add maps to halo PC, you have to overwrite them.

im fairly unimpressed with the beta.

the "scrool up/down" buttons a really an eyesore, why not just use the arrows.

the renders of the mc, even with how nice they look, dont fit the theme of the ui at all, the rest of the images are that white outlin-ish type, and these just feel out of place.

the hit enter to continue button is nothing but a waste of time, and i sincerely hope you either dont include it, or make a varient without it.

alot of text, for mapnames, profile names and such are squisshed and jaggy looking, and get worse at higher resolutions it seems.

just to load the ui takes a good amount of time, and that is never a good thing.

you guys did a great job otherwise, lots of work went into it, and in most places, it shows.

I couldn't care less about loading time tbh. Looks awesome

[Stealth]

I couldn't care less about loading time tbh. Looks awesome
Agreed, I could care less about the loading time, it takes some time for me to load Halo CE any ways, so it will not matter that much to me if the loading time is tiny bit longer, I use to have to wait a hour and a half for Halo CE to load, back when I was playing off of my laptop, so the loading time is ok if it is long.


ALSO, you think your cuistom bsp with all new textures and shaders, will take less time to load then DI...... HAH

Um, maybe you should check on how meany maps you have, that'll cause it to load slower.

Oh, and you think you can do better, lets see you something better.

Well, how about this, when you are drunk, maybe you should go lie down and sleep the Beer or what ever the crap is that you're drunk on, and then when you are not drunk, come back, and read afew things.




Oh, and just so you know, beer is really bad for you.

[rossmum]

Stealth, stop stirring trouble and acting like a fanboy. They can speak for themselves, the last thing this thread needs is you attempting to argue with Bacon.

Just so you know, getting on people's nerves is really bad for you. And there's nothing wrong with beer if you don't overdo it.

Anyhoo.......

This is awesome. I dont use a custom UI, but this is going in for sure!!
Whats the usual timeline for beta2 to release? (not asking for a commited date, just a ball park)

On a side note, releasing the modified tool to allow for PC rebuilding of CE maps would be a really really really really really realy BAAAAD idea (Really!)
Wont help whats left of the CE community, and won't inspire any new PC modders to bridge the divide either.

It'd be the equivalent of just dropping a nuke on GBX and UXB's servers...

i mean when you leave a server, or ... get tk banned (>.<) it has to load the ui, and it takes a good 10 seconds.


and guys, im not attacking you here, dont get so offended, i simply stated (in maybe not the nicest way) a few problems i had with it.

as for jcaps reply "cry about it" to my hit enter to conitinue statement, sounded like a 12 year old getting mad that his legos fell apart.

See, no need to overreact, was there guys?

[Cortexian]

w/e apparently I misread the topic somehow.

[Stealth]

i mean when you leave a server, or ... get tk banned (>.<) it has to load the ui, and it takes a good 10 seconds.
Oh, well, it takes me that long for the UI to load up after a Game is closed, so that isn't something new.

[Timo]

as for jcaps reply "cry about it" to my hit enter to conitinue statement, sounded like a 12 year old getting mad that his legos fell apart.


Probably because it takes around half a second to get past that menu. :eyesroll:

[rossmum]

Yeah, it does that with every UI for me...

[I_Am_Error117]

Will there be a way to load CMT SP v1 and v2? And I think some one nedds to mak a UI switcher, whcich one to use Earth ior Delta Halo?

[TeeKup]

Wow I leave for a day and look what happens. What is wrong with you people?

I just hope jayden's computer gets here before the release of the UI. My desktop is currently on its last leg. :x

[Dr Jaul]

while I do enjoy do enjoy watching people flame eachother, I would like to interject with a point and a question. if you like the game then why the hell do you care about how long it takes to load? if you know it will take a long time but look awesome, then go and make a bag of popcorn to aid your enjoyment of the awesome or get rid of some of your maps.

and the question is is there a time-frame for the release of the UI? it really does look awesome

[rossmum]

@ first comment - agreed.
@ question - when it's done.

[n00b1n8R]

i never usually let my maps folder get over a GB big. it had gotten over 1.2 GB so i went a pruned all the maps i don't like any more or don't play at all, and ended up killing about a 700MB!!

halo now boots about 25 seconds faster.

[Stealth]

Mine has been up to 8 GB on my lap top, and right now, 'My Videos' is pusting 25 GB,>_>, any ways, back on topic at hand, The new Delta Halo UI. >,>

i agree with bacon on the "do u want to continue?" window. it just seems pointless...
leave it out plz :)

[n00b1n8R]

theirs a reson why they have that on xbox, but on PC it's un-nesicary.

ditch it plzkthxby.
n00b out

[Timo]

I'm also finding it hard to press enter when I start up halo CE with our UI, it's such a nuisance! I cannot believe that you would even consider making me spend half a second to get past that menu to get to gain access to the main menu! I don't care if it's there so you can admire the bsp! Please, Jcap, make me take it out!

[rossmum]

lol owned

I see no issue with keeping it. I couldn't care less either way.

[Edward Elrich]

It's trying to make it feel more halo 2-ish, i believe. But it makes no difference wether or not it's in, except maybe a few tags in the file.

[Timo]

Removing would mean we would lose around 5 tags, and the final UI map would be less than 40kb smaller.

[rossmum]

Exactly. No noticeable difference, except it takes a few less joules of energy that would've been used to press enter. :rolleyes:

[Cortexian]

I like it :P

[n00b1n8R]

kill it, it takes up space and is un-necessary and annoying.

and you can admire the BSP in the main menu (mb with some more text but GTF over it)

If it really bothers you guys that the menu means that there's a lesser chance you'll be able to get into your favourite server, I'll make a UI that takes you straight to the lobby after we're done with this one.

i don't really care, it's jus that one of my pet peeves is useless things.

Timo, let me send you a list of the people that the UI won't work and exception for.

[rossmum]

Hahahaha, burn.

Seriously though, get over it. It takes less than a second to hit enter, it takes up under 40kb of tag space, and it lets you admire the map... so who gives a fuck?

[n00b1n8R]

it would apear i have a rightous burn on my ass >.>

i've been signing my name on my posts so long, it feels weird not to.

i dont care how big it is :\.
it's about as useful as the "checking for halo updates" screen. why bother?
and u can admire the map just as well in the menu section.

plz dont tell me your putting in the "checking for updates" screen as well :\

[rossmum]

Why bother? Because it lets you look at the map without dirty great text and such marring it, and it takes virtually no space, and no effort and no brainpower to put up with... just hit enter, is it really so hard?

[Timo]

With this UI you can check for updates via the settings menu. The big fucking difference here, is, is that the updates screen sits open for around ten seconds, then auto closes. The enter screen takes around half a goddamned second to get passed! You don't have to download this UI if you don't want it.:eyesroll:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

:P


Leave it in, I would much rather have an option, of admiring the map without all the huge text and etc in the road. It takes literally milliseconds to get rid of, at any point, and does so with a cool blur effect. Then you get to buisness when you want!

Don't like it, quit complaining, cuz I'm pretty sure despite your complaining, its going into the UI. Either, download it, or not, it's up to you.

[ExAm]

Indeed.

[Edward Elrich]

Yes, I agree. The whole "enter" thing makes it feel more like a console game (except Halo Xbox, of course) because almost all of them start the same way: developer/designer logos, possible opening sequence(s), and then a "press start" screen. (okay, maybe some other games, like Lego Star Wars or something don't have the "press start" screen either, but...)

[n00b1n8R]

ok, PEOPLE, THE ENTER IS GOING TO BE IN THE FINAL. NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT THAT.

Wrongo. It's just that the vast majority of the CE community are minimalists.

to try to trick noobs into thinking that it was one from the new UI.

Fine, I was wrong. Boba, why post the pic if it's not in the ui?
Because those are some of the structures that are being recreated for the ui
Because boba was just screwing around

[Edward Elrich]

Thanks, now I feel like a noob, knowing I fell for that.

[p0lar_bear]

Idea: make it so when you get a "can't connect to server," "server is full," or "error loading a map file" errors, the OK button is tied to the multiplayer screen? Not the internet/lan lobby, just the multiplayer select screen.

[Boba]

This thread is really going places. And I like your idea p0lar.

[Spartan000]

Now all we need is animated textures to perfect that UI.

(if one can make animated textures for holo panels and tank treads that shouldn't be too hard for that should it?)

[Timo]

Tried that out, but it stuffed the back button up. It didn't go back to the main menu. We can tell the enter/left mouse to return to the main menu when the back button is hit, but escape would do nothing (because there is no event type linked to it).


Now all we need is animated textures to perfect that UI.

(if one can make animated textures for holo panels and tank treads that shouldn't be too hard for that should it?)
Animated textures need shaders, and the UI doesn't support them.

Wrongo. It's just that the vast majority of the CE community are minimalists.
Halo 1 Blam! is capable of refraction variations of tidal currents?

[Cortexian]

Halo 1 Blam! is capable of refraction variations of tidal currents?
wtfpwnt, and I doubt anyone in the community could make an exact replica for Halo CE, show me that screenshot, from that exact angle on one in CE and I doubt it will look the exact same, they are two slightly different game engines after all.

[rossmum]

The structures and sky, in fact, everything besides the water could be perfectly replicated. I suspect even that could be done too, with some cubemapping.

I got another cool little idea: make a menu option, like in the Farcry main menu, called Demo Loop. When you hit it, all widgets disappear. You hit esc to return to the main menu.

I always liked hitting that option in Farcry, and just watching the flyaround. :D

[Spartan000]

ah the games you can buy for $10 (got Farcry months ago, just to see how it was to attempt to get a taste of what Crysis might be like, dissapointing storyline and main plot, I am hoping Crysis will be on the other end of the polls)

you should take the popular maps (like all the CMT ones) and include pictures for those

[Stealth]

in the UI it's self, or on the list of maps that he is looking at?

[Pooky]

I've hardly see any servers running CMT maps for a while. When I decided I actually WANTED to play Halo seriously for the first time in months, all I could get was Blood Gulch. =\

[Timo]

you should take the popular maps (like all the CMT ones) and include pictures for those

NOT. POSSIBLE.
Prior to compiling the ui, anyway.

[n00b1n8R]

so compile it dear liza.

then make the things for the maps (make an "interesting" one for huge ass and cold snap).

can we make a list of what maps need to have pickys?
n00b out

[Timo]

I'll quote Veegie.

We have the tools, it just has to be done manually every time a map is added. Which would mean you'd have to create some sort of autopatching executable that updates itself based off of an index hosted on a server that contained all map descriptions/images of every map ever made.

[Pooky]

You could always just put in a certain set of maps when it's launched then forget about adding more, but that would be pretty lame. I say just leave it as is

[Edward Elrich]

It's actaully not that bad, without the maps. It's actually not possible to do that thing with the maps in the ui. The ui will probably tell the game to display certain information for the map you have highlighted. If any maps it tries to display don't exist in your maps folder, the game could get an exception or "error: Halo couldn't load because [this map file] doesn't exist in your maps folder. Correct the problem and try loading Halo again.)

[Pooky]

Any map that would go into the UI though, everyone here probably has.

[Bodzilla]

don't do it for every map. do it for some. did the origional halo do it for all? no. so this one doesn't need to eather.

however, that does not mean that you shouldn't put any custom maps on that list.

add what maps you makers want.
n00b out

[Timo]

I think you guys are missing the point. It would take alot of fucking time to do, you need to do it in HMT or some halo PC hacking tool, so I'd have to find a converter that doesn't fuck everything up. It's not worth enough to do. Not everyone has the maps that I would put in.

[n00b1n8R]

ok, calm down.

(though it may become like a tresure hunt to find the maps that work and then those maps may become more popular)

but the majority of the comunity is a slack as so it doesn't matter.
n00b out

[Timo]

If it was added and you didn't have the map, it'd be greyed out, like the default maps are if you don't have them in your maps folder.

[rossmum]

Who cares, it's completely unnecessary and a waste of time. The UI is certainly more than adequate without it.

[Boba]

Get the fuck out of the thread. Please. We are no longer taking suggestions because the UI itself is finished. Also, stop asking for betas Rossmum, you won't get it before anyone else. Keep it civilized or I'll get Jcap to lock the thread until release.

We were too hopeful with the latest HEK+ release. It protected everything fine, but you can't get to any of the "enter text" menus. The final release will only have .bitmaps protected, so everything should be fine.

[supersniper]

Sorry for the bump but I was wondering how the project is coming along. I don't need any pics or anything I just want a simple answer like good or bad or nice. Sorry for the bump.

Guys, I have some news. We must wait for Prometheus to come out to finish some features before releasing the UI. Also, all of the screenshots you have seen are fake. This project is was created using Adobe&#174; Photoshop&#174; software. Prometheus is also fake. k?

wtf. This is a joke, right? :mad: You wouln't spend so much time to give us screenshots and make us think y'all were awesome due to your prvious work aswell. Well, congratulations. You succeeded in making us think y'all were actually working with Halo like gods. You made us feel like there was something to look forward to with some cool stuff. Wasting your time with pictures, I highly doubt that.

I know you're just saying this to get us off your backs to make the release. otherwise, this is the biggest hoax in Halo History. You made it last longer than anyone else, but I know it's not a hoax.

Snafubar. Why have you been taking so damn long with that model?...the guys kept saying all you had to do was finish up the model and it sounded like all you had to do was some quick touch ups and it has taken you half a year?...you must've recovered somewhere in 2/3 of that time. Giving you plenty of time to finish up.

and isn't Dano doing th Materials?

btw, jcap. I'm not buying into that load of bullshit.

Sorry for the bump but I didn't want to make a new topic about it. I just wanted to know how this project is coming along?? Is it canceled, moving along slowly, doing fine, or no idea. Please answer and don't flame me for bumping this topic. Thanks in advance.

If there was an update they would post one. Hasn't this been stated around 50 times before?

The project is more dead than alive. Jcap was been poking people to get a new BSP. Some progress was made, but then it died off a few months ago, again. D:

Wow you guys really treat people like they are stupid around here. I just wanted to make sure. What if they had an update but never bothered to post it.

Jcap or Timo would have, they're really close to the community and want to show every big leap they make.

What ^ he said. But goddamnit I want this freaking thing to come out :smith:

I honestly would be happy if they released what they had now and called it a final.

It looks so epic.

i sent jcap the bsp more than 2 months ago. it's up to him to get someone to texture the thing. i was more than willing to finish the last detail while the rest got textured, but i never heard anything more about it.

Why didn't you call Dano?

:O

Seriously, he does massively awesome textures :awesome:

But I can't recall if he said no to it before....stupid memory...:/

I second to releasing what you guys have now and call it a final.
