Yes, the function of bloom is generally well-known.

Regardless of whether or not OS' bloom functions were active when I took that picture (contrary to Masterz' statement I think it actually was) it's certainly not the focus of the image and its presence certainly is not very big. Open Sauce allows tweaking of bloom settings (or disabling it if it's not your thing) on both the mapmaker and player's side, so regardless of what's going on there it can be easily changed.

I was just saying that the glow of the shields and overall graphics looked nicer then normal halos graphics were capable of. It was intended as a complement

complements are nice

I try. Lol

So, I was wondering if we'd see any sentinel enforcers, or some other variant of enemy like drones or something?

IDK about drones, but there was an enforcer or two in SPV2's The Maw, so it's probably safe to assume its return.

hey, is there going to be any easter egg like skulls, hidden, vehicles, super weapons or something like that because that would awesome to see on SPV3

Skulls would be awesome.

Hidden Vehicles and weapons, sure, but skulls sound pretty pointless, IMO.

Pointless?
CMT grunt birthday party

I made grunt birthday once, except the sound effect....Yeah....Kind of fun to have, but not as good as on 360, it's just not the same

skulls could b cool, they could b like a ohk hidden weapon.

well i dont know if they would be pointless after all it would be awesome to get in the map and start it on legendary mode and pass The silent Cartographer or Assault on the control room with a skull effect on such as black eye ,grunt birthday partyy or sputnik skull the what i dont know is if CMT add them will they have a skull option on the menu or it would be like you need to pick up the skull first or both either way that would be just freaking awesome
as well if possible terminals with more Halo history or something but idk about the last one and i dont think CMT add them though it would make cmt spv3 maps better than spv2 or spv1 in gameplay and not just graphics which is right now the major difference between them

Hope to get an answer from any CMT member to know if you are going to add skulls/terminals/or hidden weapon(superweapons) if possible

The gameplay is substantially different from SPV2.

Lol that's bs, the core gameplay remains the same either way.

I was just looking through some of tehlag's old stuff when I saw this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wEvdDNJ5Bs
It would be really cool if SPV3 incorparated some of these things in some custom cutscenes (if your going to have any custom cutscenes) Especially the ODST and Jackal execution and the Elite tank hijack (or even have that as a highjack anim for the elites with OS)

what i meant its that some mainly the story its the same and you will probably use the same bsp or fix or update the bsp the only real changes will be on effects and abilities such as the hijack(which is my favorite by the way) but thats mainly what its going to change
because as you said you are going to use the same models of elites from cmt spv2 maybe you will update grunts and sentinels but mostly outside the os scripting possibilites its the same thing that spv2 but what im asking its simple to answer are there any possibilities of you adding skulls/terminals/ or more easter eggs to the maps

Will SPV3 guide players more than the original campaign, with additional navpoints?
SPV2 guided players a lot less than the original campaign and was just confusing and frustrating.

Meh the jackals still have the regressive hairline rather than an actual comb.

And why would anyone care?

Cause it (the hair, which should be a comb) looks like crap imo, use your brain Skid. I don't care if YOU don't care, I don't care if others don't care. It's feedback for the maker, not for mindless idiots like Skidrow.

I also don't care if the maker takes it to heart or not. I'm offering my opinion just because I can.
The shields look great though.

Because it's valid criticism. Though Lodex should have said what the hair should be like rather than just saying meh at a regressive hairline.

Wow that looks awesome!

...so since there are sharpshooter jackals
does that mean there is going to be CMT beam/focus rifle or some sort of new covenant sniper?
or is it just carbines?

There's nothing fun about things that can kill you instantly.

yes but it would be awesome to see a focus rifle on campaign maybe with less damage that reach´s

We have something like that, it's called a sentinel beam. ;)

I think the beam rifle worked well in Halo 2 on normal difficulty. 2 shots could kill you but the jackals were made so that there was some time between each shot. On higher difficulties it could simply shoot a bit faster but keep that similar mecanic rather than the 1 shot kill on halo 2 legendary.

masters what i meant to say was that a focus rifle or even a moded weapon that kill worked like a sniper weapon of the covenant without the instant kill making it a usefull weapon in gameplay for the player in case to kill from a far distance without being to hard to fight against a covenant wielder

The focus rifle was the most retarded gun ever. It's not even a sniper, it's just sh**.

even though i agree, im just saying an example of a possible beam like sniper weapon, for the covenant in cmt spv3 (though i know cmt wont think on adding a covie sniper rifle)

My personal opinion is the they both suck, the beam rifle is no different than the human sniper other than there being no reload, and the focus rifle just well... sucks. If CMT ever wanted a Covenant sniper gun, I'd be pushing for something new and unique. But that's not happening anytime soon.

i know but it would be cool because you would make a better covie sniper rifle with a far better gameplay than the one of the focus rifle and the beam rifle
but well i rather the carbine anyway so as far as you use or upgrade the carbine im and i guess that most players will be happy

Will most, if not all, weapons in the mod show up with the cheat_all_weapons command?
It would be fun to just experiment and throw some new colors and flavors into gameplay if we had most or all weapons at our disposal throughout the entire campaign with a command. It's not like it would hinder anything the team desired if this were implemented; it's nice to be flexible and let players decide how they want to enjoy this piece of work in their own ways.

E: Oh, what do you have planned, at this exact point, for the sentinel beam(s)? (I know it's a bit early to start thinking about it considering how A50 is what's being worked on.)
