CMT Public Beta Feedback

[teh lag]

The Custom Map Team (CMT) has released a public beta for the first map in their SPV2 Campaign Mod for Halo Custom Edition. SPV2 is an extended and upgraded version of Halo 1's campaign, containing all new weapons, vehicles, enemies, UI, and upgraded graphics. Levels have been extended as well, with new areas to explore. Some levels have been expanded 40 minutes, and others by nearly three hours. New options have been built into the UI, allowing the player to detach the camera from the player and freeze time, play in slow motion, or further optimize their performance.

The public beta build of Pillar of Autumn contains many of our additions to the game and has been extended with new areas to explore. Our mod contains Brutes, who at this point in the timeline are working alongside the Elites. You may also notice some revisions to other enemies, though the mod is still in progress and there is still a fair amount of content that we are in the process of adding. Players will also have a variety of new weapons, including but not limited to the: SMG, MA5C Assault Rifle, Spiker, a Battle Rifle with a grenade launcher attachment, and it wouldn't be Halo 1 if the good ole' pistol didn't appear in one way or another. ;-)



Halo Custom edition can be downloaded at http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=410 for free, although it requires you to have a LEGAL copy of Halo PC and your original CD key.

To extract the maps, you will need to download and install WinRAR. Follow the instructions at http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?nid=386 for detailed installation instructions. (tl;dr: Extract the map file (a10.map) to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\maps and get the custom UI replacement and put that in the maps folder too.)

Please read the readme inside the archive for more beta information and info on how to play the map.

If you download, YOU MUST POST FEEDBACK IN THIS THREAD.

THE RULES :

• Be coherent.
• Be concise.
• Make SUBSTANTIVE COMMENTS! You should know what a substantive comment is!
• Use the
  [list] tags (quote this post if you don't know how to use them to see how it's done) or some other way of clearly indicating seperate issues/comments.
• Avoid off-topic/wandering (yeah, this includes PC specs which have made many a CMT thread veer off-course) conversation unless it is directly related (ex : pointing out that you had the same issue) to another one.
• If you realize you forgot to add something, or notice something new, please edit it into your original post unless you absolutely MUST reference a post made after the one you made. It's easier to keep track of.

Posts that blatantly violate said rules will be deleted.
