Before I get too far into this, I want to know what you think of the UNSC interface so far.

Nice man if nothing else it'll make a pretty good fed GUI. Like the transparancy feel to it.

C.A.B.A.L, Its good, really good - It does capture the UNSC HUD feel.

I have one request though? Can you make the transparent parts a little more transparent? Or darker? (Just to see what it looks like?)

Awesome so far though buddy Is it possible to move around the GUI elements and resize them? I have no idea, but you really seem to know what your doing C.A.B.A.L - so what do you think? I think if the elements were sized slightly smaller, and then placed around the edges of teh screen (rather than taking up the bottom half, as in stock).

I say carry on the way your going and have fun with it - Im really looking forward to the Covenant one!


Just a wee announcement - In the interests of actually getting this mod finished and released to a really good quality, Im going to follow Dan's example - Attack one race at a time and release in stages (just like the Vulcans and the Cardassians - it really worked there).

And guess who's gonna be first...

Thats right...

The covenant!

Glassing a planet near you soon...

Dear science, please start solving problems and curing diseases or shut the fuck up.

I was actually going to suggest you do that lol, great minds think alike and all that

Yeah I think you'll find it easier to get it done in stages, its less you have to do all at once, plus it keeps peoples interest in the mod going

I upped the transparency and shuffled the pieces around. I could resize stuff if you want. I could even change the layout of stuff inside the boxes so that, for instance, the control panel had the buttons layed out in a 6x2 pattern instead of a 3x4.
Spoiler:

Also, I ran into a problem. Apparently, the Covenant don't have an emblem, so should I just use a picture of High Charity for the image that is displayed when you turn off the cinematic window as Covenant?

Or make one up. That's what I have been doing with the Garidians, reproducing what I seen in the dialogue in a Final Unity.

Also Dino that's an awesome idea.

C.A.B.A.L. - you are an artist sir, a bloody artist! that looks awesome!

The transparency is spot on, the locations are great (I like the resource bar location)

As for the Buttons - rather than 6x2, or even 3x4 as they are now - can you make them 4x3 (so they are closer to the ship info panel)? Just to see how it looks? If it doesnt look right, then this is perfect!

As for the Covenant symbol -

Spoiler:

This is on all of the doors on the Truth and Reconsilliation in Halo. I think its the only time you see a cannon Covenant Symbol...what do you think?



Im really excited to see what you come up with for the Covenant - is it possible to alter the GUI panel locations shape etc... per race? to give each race a very different feel? Man, you really know what your doing here!

And Majestic, I noticed that that Jetnova15(16?...whatever...) guy was giving you a hard time... dont sweat it bro - Im sure its just a language / cultutre thing (plus he's probably like 11 or somthing)

But I'm having a problem registering for your site too - I was a member, but I remember that you axed alot of non-active guys a while back...Can I come back again? I promise to behave...(ish)

Yeah I think he was 16 by the username. Anyway it was solved by the staff he which I appreciate.

As for the site, I sent you a PM about it. Unfortunately at the current time there are several issues with the site hence why I closed registrations. But I can manually create one for you and anyone else for that matter who wish to join.

Hopefully when I can get some funds together through my own funding and donations and get some time Syf and I will be doing a massive revamp of the site to such an extent that it will be a totally new site and will operate in a different manner.

Also looking good on the Halo, I really like Halo and you are sure doing some awesome work on this mod. In fact I am going to unpack my A1 disk and give A1 a run and try to make it work on my PC just so I can play this modification.
