That's because the level designers at bungie those day's were too lazy to come up with new and more interesting layouts....Yet the layouts seem to work out quite perfect for all game types. (Not saying Yuki is too lazy to make a new and original layout.) Anyways i should stop talking or i might get wacked.

Been fucking with some older skies to try and get a nicer look with a placeholder sky for the next beta. Lost cove looked very nice :O



and thank you teh lag for your incredible texture help!

Hopefully that isn't the final texture layout, because the ground doesn't fit right.

Now put either a really big desert over the cliff or a gigantic waterfall like in Construct (or The Ark).

(The backstory for that picture is I was annoyed at his inability to use hue-saturation in PS to change the color of a light bitmap, so I created about 5 different colors, a filter-raepd version, and overlayed it onto an animes to show how little knowledge was needed)

That's because it's the dangercanyon ground badly UV'd to the level. Most of the textures in there are still placeholders, and we're still looking around for someone to finish up some of the retexturing and make the custom ones we need.

I'm working on modelling some big tall out of level cliffs, and finishing up most of the other modelling shit.


As far as the sky goes, I really really like the way it lights the level, so chances are I'll keep it. Though I might fuck around with parts of it. We'll see.

I'll think about it, but I'm really unimpressed at halo's water. and water effects so I might just keep it waterless. :S

It looks sexy so far Selentic, keep up your magiccccccccc.

When do you think it will be released?
