Judas Is Still Waiting... Stuntmutt shows that he's happy to hit religion as hard as he hits the English language in today's One One Se7en - being posted a few hours earlier than usual because it's not clear how much online time I'll be getting before Monday night.

Contest Candidate Cornucopia Just a quick note - the submission deadline for the 7 on the 7th contest has come and gone; it's all over but the judging. We received more than 250 submissions for this contest - there are a LOT of you who want a shot at a free signed soundtrack! What's probably going to happen is that we'll pare down the submissions to a reasonable number, and then let the public vote on the final choices; the only thing I wanted to make clear is that it might take us a little longer than we'd originally estimated to get this all ready. (I'm out of town right now, so I don't have access to all of my normal tools.) We ask that everyone stays patient; we're not talking weeks of delay here, just a few days. When we know more, we'll pass it along! (Louis Wu 04:56:58 UTC) (permalink)
Lookie Mothergoat released a followup to the MPD vid that hit the Halo scene a month and a half ago. Vanilla Ice got NUTHIN' on this white boy. You gotta watch this, even if you hate rap. Cause it's hilarious. Just over 50 mb, in WMP9 format (see Mutha G's forum post for a download link) - if you need a QuickTime version, we're hosting one for him because laughter is the best medicine. Think of this as a huge Benadryl-and-Robitussen cocktail. (Louis Wu 04:43:31 UTC) (permalink)
IAC Model Updated Stephen Loftus has released a couple of new images of his 'In Amber Clad' scratchbuilt model - we've added them (and his descriptive text) to his progress page here at HBO. Check it out - fiber-optic lighting looks pretty slick! (Louis Wu 03:54:57 UTC) (permalink)
Hot Stuff in the HaloCE World TheGhost has moved his pretty amazing collection of links to HaloCE tutorials to a permanent home at Halomaps.org, courtesy of Dennis Powers - swing by for links to every fan-created tutorial related to content creation for Halo: Custom Edition you can think of! There've been a number of significant updates to this project since we first mentioned it in November. (And while TheGhost had our ears, letting us know about this move, he pointed out a pretty amazing release by Tiamat; a map called Coldsnap, with jets, Longswords, and Pelicans in play, along with mechs, walking creatiures, and a number of original vehicles - plus C4 explosions, new weapons, and more. Go grab a copy!) (Louis Wu 03:28:27 UTC) (permalink)
New Renders for First Contact The First Contact Half-Life 2 mod has released a large group of renders - go check out everything from vehicles to characters in their image gallery (the news post is here). Thanks to AngelicLionheart and xJayx for the heads-up(s)! (Louis Wu 03:11:07 UTC) (permalink)
