High-Resolution-Halo

Looks great, except for that AR fire effect. If you'd like me to teach you how to manipulat them properly you have my contact info.

AR effects and sounds kick ass.

I'd rather not learn from a guy that evidently just uses the same sprites over and over again but changes various sizes and colors ;)

The firing sprites were done in literally 5 mins of photoshop work. They were created as a primer so i could create real ones. I dunno though, i really like the jagged look to em.

Not bad. I have to say, I'm loving the rocks, although in some places the extreme angle on the skin makes it look rather odd, the fact that the texture represents depth that the eye expects to see at that angle. Now sure what you can do about that, though, aside from maybe height-mapping the model to match the contours of the rocks in the texture a bit more, but that doesn't really sound like a good idea. Anyway, it's pretty inspirational.

I tried the matching of contours, it just looked repetitive as the geometry would keep repeating.

Here's a little extra for you other peeps, this is how i create bumps for more complicated things that i can't paint by hand:

That's how bungie did it D:

Using a displacement map for a bump map was a good idea :).

I meant the game-default sprites, bungie still made their own ;)

Quite possibly, in fact.

Don't bother trying to correct him, he just enjoys taking potshots at people for 3 year old grudges. :)

Nope, you just didn't show that you could help me with particles. But hey, if you want to rely on the crutch-excuse of an dead grudge, go for it, you're the only one in the room.

You're the one taking potshots, everyone see's it. I'm the mature one who offered you help, but obviously you're not interested in MY help. Leet and I, and Kenny to an extent, are the only ones who I'm aware of that have an understanding of particle systems and effect particles. Your reaction to my offer is not rational.
