Halo: Blood Covenant
Wow. A new 2d sidescroller looks to be in the works; Halo: Blood Covenant, from an Italian team. The site is in Italian, but you can get a decent sense for what it's looking like so far by following the screens link. _ib noticed this over at Battleground: Halo. Coolness!

The Lord of the Ring
We're tight on bandwidth, but that doesn't mean we're OUT of bandwidth. Thanks to Mythica.org (which is having minor connection problems at the moment) and HaloNational (nof, you rock!), we have a pair of mirrors for you for The Lord of the Ring, a movie made by Mark Gursoy, and turned in by Ben Roth. It's just under 3 minutes long, 372x279, 11.2 mb in QuickTime format. It's a very nice trailer - nice timing, nice choices for characters, and classy composition. Ben says Mark did this to learn Premiere - I'd say I'd love to see his more polished work, because this shows real promise! (Louis Wu 19:24:23 UTC) (permalink)

DocOctavius has posted a rigging tutorial for gmax over at Yayap.com; if you're interested in learning how to rig a character, this is worth a read! (Louis Wu 18:31:53 UTC) (permalink)
FBO offline for a bit
Before the emails start pouring in... files.bungie.org has been turned off for the next 4 days. We hit our bandwidth limit, and rather than incur a several-hundred-dollar overage fee, I've decided to simply take it down until April 1. Almost all the files available there are also available at mythica.org, and even the ones that aren't will be back on Thursday... so please be patient. Thanks! (Louis Wu 16:59:40 UTC) (permalink)
A cool poster
Blackstar put up images yesterday of a new poster he received... I don't know that I'd have the wallspace for this puppy, but it IS gorgeous. (Louis Wu 16:57:20 UTC) (permalink)
HHHT updated
BOLL points out that HHHT 1.40 has been released; The Helpful Halo Hacking Tool has a few bug fixes, and some nice new features. There are also some (untested) spawn patches for download. See what you can find! (Louis Wu 16:56:34 UTC) (permalink)
