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.Quote:

What CMT has is free for you to use in the UI if you wish.Quote:

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

Sort of like the ships in these cutscenes:
Heh, looks great.
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!
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.
Make the broken Halo ring that is shown in halo 2:P
Or why not have the one from Halo 3 that was being rebuilt? I believe it was installation 4, correct?
Or the ark!?:D
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.
High Charity?:)Yeah but the other places would be nice:)For a change..If Delta Halo Island was finnished...
I actually prefer the plain ring because there's practically no BSP to load, so the UI opens and run quicker.
^ 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 ^^
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
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.
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:).
Would it be possible to implement something more like this?
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.
indeed. Keep the colors.Quote:

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.
I like this idea boba :D
Does it have any textures atm?
Wol/Dano's mc I mean.
E: *Looks up*
nvm
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
Damn, that looks awesome. Nice job.
Jump on aim later and i'll send you the .tif that the mc needs to fit into so you can set up your render.Quote:

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.
The PC version just runs the credits over the main menu, with no special music or anything D:<Quote:

Yell at jcrap, I actually don't have any of the source files anymore.
Okay PMd but it's time for some sleep~
I hope to be excited by something in this thread when I wake up later today. :party:
Cheers for the bump bro, i needed someone to WRECK MY WHOLE LIFE
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.
THE DEATH ISLAND VERSION WAS FINE BACK IN 2007, JUST GIVE US SOMETHING FFS
ablehblehbleheblehnahanahanhanh. Don't bring CMT into this thread, thans v_VQuote:

Also, you said you were too busy to work on it :|
And Connor was last working on a simple BSP
as n00b said the death island version was perfect.
cammon guys!
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.
Doesnt the BSP still need to be unwrapped? I could unwrap it for you guys if you want.
oh wow, never knew about this.
:o
That looks great.
o, halo 2 beta menu.
did you guys lose my bsp or something??Quote:

Even if it doesn't have the planned BSP, you wouldn't want this beauty to go down with all the other unreleased projects.
Releasing it with Death Island would be good enough for me.
That's my favorite map anyway.
I don't remember, did we even get the music compiled? :confused2:
Bacon!! Dammit!!
I forgot about this :(
*wishes for a leak ;)
Nah they all just blamed each other because no one wants to do the BSP's ;)
jk
there is music in the one i have, dunno if its the same music you guys planned on using or not :confused2:Quote:

Why aren't the menu items lined-up?
That's the point? H2 BetaQuote:

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?
I think it looks interesting.
Why make them all line up? BE A REBEL FUCK ALIGNMENT!
Kinda ruined you on the inside there huhQuote:

I swear rook we should make a release the Delta UI group or something.
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.
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
in for leak
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?
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.
Don't forget the multipurpose bitmaps.
I would unwrap the BSP if it was small enough.
Second that.Quote:

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.
Yes, please dont "redo everything" without releasing this version first.
DHUIv1
then come back with
DHUIv2
Lol another map for IMP. That makes 11.
BRING IT ON!
If you need any textures I'm your man :)Quote:

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.
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.
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.
I just gave him my deltahalo sky, your welcome
I think I can I think I can I think I can.
Also killa gets some rep.
Good luck Inferno! No pressure- it's not like we're all watching intently. Extremely intently.
:jibbly:
That looks fuckin great. Why not just release that version? I say v1 and v2.Quote:

well dont change the way it looks
just the bsp
any alterations to the UI should be in v2
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.
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.
:[ 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.
Yeah I agree with heathen. Why not release the awesome one you have right now and then make a different version?
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
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.
