Dec 18

So, Here’s the Eye Candy all you have been waiting so long to see. You’ve seen most of our concepts and models, but that’s nothing compared to the following. So, lets begin, shall we?

‘Tis The Season

So, as the holidays roll onwards towards the New Year, we’ve been hard at work on all you’ll see in this update (and a few things for later =P) and we’ll probably take a well deserved break to party with friends and enjoy the holidays with our families. Maybe We’ll have somthing for New Year’s, but don’t count on it.

Conceptual Disbelief

I’m forever amazed at the art Ringleader can whip up on a daily basis. From stunning ship concepts, to the speed he can draw up additional views to those concepts. The ships just feel right in the Halo-verse, yet I’d never have even thought up any such design. So, as goodies were promised, here are some of Ringleader’s latest concepts.

Its a 3D Miracle!!!

Velo’s skills have developed amazingly since the beginning of this project, with every model looking more amazing than even the concepts made them look. Here on some newer models he’s created (as well as a new look on some older ones) with some textures done by KrAzY.

 

In The End…

So that wraps up (unwraps?) this Holiday’s Update. We’d like to thank all the fanboys for their support for H:HF. And I personally want to thank all of BLS for thier hardwork for the mod, and this update. Also, I apologize to everyone for the lateness of this update.
Stay Tuned to Future Updates for More Eye Candy.

Oh wait, I just remembered. We have a special Trailer for Halo: Homefront. Available on our Official Youtube Channel (Subcribe pl0x?) as well as our ModDB Video Gallery. Its also available as a High Res Widescreen Download in our Files.

Dec 3

Hello! It’s me, NinjaTheory, again. Here to tell you some of the newest HHF related new and random babble.

MOD OF THE YEAR

As most of you will notice, we have been nominated along with 4,000 other mods for the Mod of the Year Awards. We are honored to have this oppurtunity, and hopefully we’ll make it at least past Dec 15th when the nominies will be cut down to only 100 mods. We need your help to do this! Vote for us, and, whenever possible, physically abuse your friends until they follow suit. Also, don’t forget to vote for our sister mod Halo: First Offensive for Star Wars: Empire at War. Remember, you can vote for as many mods as you want, so don’t worry about if you’ve already voted for others.

BROTHERS IN ARMS

Okay, so I called HFO our sister mod….which essentially is what they are, and I know it goes against this sections title, but deal with it. We recently made a partnership with Halo: First Offensive and this will speed up production of both mods. We’ve agreed to share models, along with personnel and advertisment. Lisvania has, for the most part been our main HFO representative. Freno, an HFO texturrer/modeller (to be honest, I have no idea) recently joined us and donated a model of the Phantom Dropship for use in our mod. Needless to say, this will be a highly lucrative partnership on both counts.

ITS A BIRD, ITS A PLANE

Yea….its actually a plane. But, nevertheless, A SPACE PLANE!!! Capable of dropping bombs on things! What more could you want?…..besides one of the working versions of our mod….Anyways, Ringleader, our concept artist, has become a treasured member of our team, capable of spitting out new concepts on a regular basis. Even providing reverse angles mere hours after our modeller asked for some. Velo’s even had a hard time keeping up.

SAMUS ARAN, REPORTING FOR DUTY

Oh, wait, wrong game. But its sort of related! Beta is messing around with some custom gametypes, that MAY or MAY NOT, make it to release. I’m sure you can find similiar things for the standard Homeworld 2 gameplay, but ours have Halo Zazz!!! Most recently, he finished a bounty system. To be honest, I haven’t tried it. Been busy with things. But he says its awesome, So I’m gonna believe him.

Happy Holidays

Enjoy your Chrismahanahquanzakah season! Hopefully, those of you who are fans, that don’t have Homeworld 2 will get that for whatever holiday you do celebrate. And don’t worry, the BLS team won’t completely slack off through the holidays, but I can’t promise none of us will binge on Pies…and other things….

Anyway, We’re going to be feeling pretty festive in the weeks to come. *wink*
