Another note for you players, here is a list of infos and map modifications, just posted that you know what will come to you tomorow.

The Server Name will be SDTM Nuclear Island. Server Purpose is Public Halo play. CTF, I mean real CTF,not slayer only, cause this is basically a ctf map. Supported Variants for gameplay is Fun with SDTM.


Additional Information:

This is a special modded Deathisland Map.
Main source map is a Deathisland mod called "Nuclear Island" made by Fun Clan. Taking this map as resource by courtesy of Fun-Clan Leaders Fun~Hitman and Fun~Exxom. The main great Nuclear Island modding part is there work, I just did a remod and added stuff.

Some bitmaps and effects are added from the Open-Sourced-FTW-Deathisland Map by Pepsi et al.

Other source maps are BloodgulchV9 by §§}Compdude, an old BBT-Bloodgulch by the$$-Clan and Skellito's Deathisland SDTMV8 map .


This so called "five-map-cross-mod" was made by me, moscito.jpg a.k.a. Colt with the following programs: Eschaton 0.8.1, Sparkedit v3.02, HMT 3.5 and HHt v5.


Generall map modifications


Nuclear ball in air was made by moscito.jpg a.k.a. Colt of the following scenerys: b40 shaftrings, modified plasma flame and constant sparks from d20 and plasma beam emitter from a30.


Nuclear Island Map from Fun Clan including this special non-regular modifications: transparant stones and warthogs, several air and base plattforms and more than 40 new ports for fast flagging, more equipment (camo,os,weapons) placed over the map, stronger shotgun & automatic pistol for short distance killing snow trees (and originally, optional snow), also modified plasma canon projectiles (fly straight on)


Added From FTW-Deathisland by FTW (Pepsi et al):
Mark VI Armor from Halo 3, Halo 2 plasma grenade explosion (for plasma grenade, bangshee bolt explosion, ghost bolt and plasma canon), Storm Sky and rain, water dust, fog tags, Skins for ghost, banshee, scorpion, gun torett, sniper, shotgun, pistol, assualt rifle, rocket launcher effects of rocket explosion used on sniper projectile, Halo 2 HUD,Halo 2 weapon rectiles, b40 ground lights, a30 spotlights, hanging vines and the postgame carnage report bitmap (How bad did you suck today?).


Added from Pepsi's UI.map was Pepsi's sound tag) for music in base.


Custom music in base is two minutes from "Riders on the Storm" made by The Doors.


Added from Bloodgulch_V9 by §$}Compdude are tags for ghost:
vehicle tag (special invinsible tag that makes ghost pilot hard to kill,
and its projectile tag (for heat-searching plasma grenades). Also equipment as frag and instant exploding plasma grenades projcetile tags for wide grenade throwing (basicaly Skelito's SDTM effect).


Added from BBT-Bloodgulch was the Gun-Torret projectile tag for mutiple projectile fire and high kill chance.


Added from Skellito's Deathisland map are the SDTM8 ports (4 in bases, 5 in trees, one at beamemitter) and the Sniper Projectile that shots a tank shell but as the visual effect it explodes as a rocker launcher explosion (main SDTM effect).


Other modifications for adapted gameplay on a bigger map is a bit less stronger sdtm sniper for a two shot kill (normally one shot kill) if shot directly, ghost and banshee pilots can't be killed easy so be creative, enabled dynamic lights for scenerys and heightened light emit radius for FTW effect makes the insite of the bases looks better.


I think that are all changes to the original Bungie map.



Download note:0,

For people with high end PCs there will be a high graphic level download link available, all bitmaps and sounds are internalized to it to enjoy the full mod as I rebuit it (size 138mb!!). For people with older PCs there will be a low graphic level version be available for download, but you wont see every part of the below listed modifications with it (size 59mb!!).


Have FUN with and enjoy playing from tomorow.

For all that like to download the map, here are the links at share 4u:
High_Graphics_deathisland and
Low_Graphics_deathisland.

If you like you can download the maps from the §partan §nipers site as well, but you will need to be loged in on this forum.

Notice, take the high graphic level map if you have a good pc.
The server with the map will be open at scheduled time, so arround an hour from now.

A server with the map permanently running will be available after the event as well, the time for the end of it is not set, this could take all night if you want:) See you in the map!

Another note, sory for double post the hundred times,

if you got the map, unpack it with winrar or winzip, rename to deathisland and put it in the halo maps folder. Done! And then join the game!

[§§}Gray]

Every time i click to join the game it exits me out of halo and says "gathering exception data" then says halo has stopped working. Any ideas on what i am doing wrong?

[[GsC]Be®ch]

do you have the map installed?

[moscito.jpg]

Hey People,

just wanna give a summary of last days night.
Thanks to all people that joined and played for a while , specially thanks to lmclEdog, who kinda moderated in the beginning and helped the people to join, also some others I remember been there lmclKillYou, lмсl»®£Ð«,BôŧŧÎêš,{ŬŜ}ÅÇØΦķΐΈ,{ØZ}Moridin, GSC]Berch...
What I can say is , most people likes the map, the weapon modifications and the basic view of it, alo my nuclear plasma ball, of which I'm most proud of:))


But thats not all to say. It turned out to be that there are some bugs that I will try fixing today. First is the sniper weapon tag, which was completely nulled out for some reason and the kill only was done by the shock wave when you stood in the center and accurate body shots were needed for it. I will try to fix that by increase of kill radius and swap the damage tag back in. Next is, and what made me really wondering about what I made wrong, the server run on the high graphic map and people that only can play the low graphic map or the original map couldn't join the server and got exception errors (which are not that bad as they sound Gray, they don't damage anything at the PC, just means that there is an error and you cant join the server). I'm looking to fix that also.

I hope we can replace the files for the download today, until then it doesn't makes much sense to run a server with the buged map.

Hey, Moscito again!


In an off night of remodding and playing the map I have found a way to fix the server issues. The solution didnt seemed to be that simple to me cause I had to re-add the basic SDTM and other weapon mofications to the clean FUN map, all other mods as graphics, weather, sky, skins ect. were left out and so the map size stayed low cause nothin was added to it.

This map was testet as dedicated server map yesterday about 3 hours long with unholy and other players that used the original bungie version and the high graphics and low graphic versions from the other days release.

For allowing everyone either using a moded or original map enter the game this so called standard server map is strongly recommended.

Note : This smart 19mb version of the mod can be played as client version to but you won`t see much of the below listed graphical changes and no nuclear ball.


Downloadlink:

Server Version_NuclearIsland.


So than, the mod work is done, and the map released, have fun with it, I will be looking for a server running this mod from time to time, be sure you could see me there.
