Are there enough Covenant ships to use for the Mod at the moment?

its a good idea. but dont advertise it. there was a mod for C & C Generals that was halo, but bungie and microsoft got way mad at them and made then stop makeing it, and closed the website and everything. so if you do make one do it under the table and dont advertise it, but email it to me =D [email protected]

Hey, you gonna include Halo's main menu music in your mod? Kinda hard to have Halo without the music.

Actually according to Microsoft's Game Content Usage Rules, "the music from Halo 3 is available for your use in non-profit ventures thanks to an arrangement with O’Donnell/Salvatori, Inc., composers of this iconic theme." http://www.xbox.com/en-US/community/developer/rules.htmWhile the rules were created with Machinima and gameplay montages in mind, the use of intentionally general language like "non-profit ventures" implies that it can be applied to other projects such as mods. As long as you use the "[The title of your Item] was created under Microsoft’s “Game Content Usage Rules” using assets from GAMENAME, © Microsoft Corporation" disclaimer, you should avoid any potential copyright issues. Also according to the page, the disclaimer can simply be a ReadMe file downloaded with your mod.There shouldn't be any problem with including Halo 3 OST music in your mod, and now I'm expecting it

Nice, does that apply to all Halo soundtracks? Because I believe only the first Halo had that iconic menu music.Ahhh, that's the catch: the webpage doesn't say. But I think, since they specify the Halo 3 OST and not just "Halo music," it only applies to that specific soundtrack. However, you could either use a similarly iconic song (like H3's "Finish the Fight"), find a particular segment of one of the H3OST's songs that greatly resembles the original theme and loop it, or obtain a music license (good luck with that: they can be real expensive, something i'm not sure you'll want to do for something with a $0 profit margin).Another option is to just go ahead and use the song: best case scenario, they don't notice; worst case scenario, you get your @$$ sued; middle ground: they ask that you remove the song from future downloads. Ultimately, though, I wouldn't worry too much about it; when people unlicensed music in Machinima (and, believe me, a lot of them do), properly crediting the artist is usually enough to keep the lawsuits at bay. It's a risk I leave up to you.My advice would be to take one of my earlier suggestions, since they're safe and would provide all the fanboys with some real Halo music. However, I have downloaded a mod that uses Motorhead's "The Game", and I'm not sure whether it's licensed or not.

I was just wondering if u guys hav any screenshots, cuz i would like to see the new ships. also do hav any idea when the initial beta will be realeased? cuz i really want to play it. thanks keep it up!

A space combat game sound fun butttt. if you know anything about the "HALO" Universe the combat must not be balanced. Humans are utterly ruined in space we know this from reading the books it would be extremely difficult to be humans low weapons damage with eception of the "mac gun" and "Mac platforms". For an analogy it would be like send men with muskets to fight men with "Uzi's".But with all that aside good look and I hope that it is good
