....that DOES have shadows? Every single one I download lacks shadows. I made a thread before to check if it was just my pc doing this, but it turns out that its an issue with the campaign maps themselves, and no one has shadows on any of the modified/otherwise campaign maps (a10, a30, a50 etc) I was just wondering if anyone could link me to a campaign map that does have shadows. Thanks!

Why do you need shadows? Just play the game. Graphics aren't everything.

Plus I have shadows on my campaign maps. I have no idea what people are talking about. o.O

I really don't think you do. Not on enemies and fallen weapons, at least. If you do, please post a screenshot so we can all see and link me to the campaign you downloaded- thats why I set up this thread, after all :) Consider that when I say campaign I mean the original Combat evolved campaign (a10, a30, a50 etc) ported over to be played on the Custom Edition version of the game and played on the Custom Edition.

If the campaign you have fits that description, screenshots and a link to its download would be brilliant.


As for why I need shadows? I don't, but that's not why I made this thread. When I make a thread called "Tell me if I'm petty to want shadows in my game" then feel free to say what you like, until then please keep it relevant. Thanks!

I don't have any original SP maps, but every SP map I play has shadows.
But seriously.. if you want the original campaign, then just load up Halo PC; You own the game after all.

You can dl the sp maps direct on halomaps ;)

I'm not here for your opinions on the graphics debate. I'm here to see if anybody has any links to any campaign maps that do have shadows. If you do (like some of you have said) then paste the link- thats the title of the thread after all. If you don't- don't post here. Pretty simple stuff.

Guys this is just another troll from modacity up for a secret "undercover" mission to "prove" that we act like big meanies to people who as "dumb" questions. Just ignore him.

This is exactly what I have warned you guys about for so long.... Did you listen? No. Now you have essentially opened the door for a Modacity insurgency.

Soon there will be attacks on the street. Husky thugs beating children for what little tags they have, just to have the resources to bring this forum into a state of emergency.

I had warned you, all of you. However, the time to act has already come and gone.

Welcome to the new Halomaps.

That's right Gurdy, why couldn't others have caught on sooner YyyoR

rofl, very good.

...all I wanted was a reply to my question. I just don't want to be told "graphics aren't important stfu" or whatever. Maybe I put too much importance in graphics, but thats not the topic here. I was just wondering if someone could help me out with my issue, not if they felt my issue was valid or not. Anyway, from my previous thread it seems that a lot of people are having the issue of no graphics in the combat evolved campaign for custom edition. If it really isn't the maps themselves then some of us need to look at our graphics cards- i'm just trying to pinpoint the issue for anyone who does feel irritated by it :) Thanks!

I have that map and for whatever reason the enemies and the weapons don't have shadows but the vehicles do (the same issue as any other map) but thanks for trying and thanks for linking me! Maybe its an Nvidia thing- do you have ATI?

You can find a Covenant Shadow in the single player map named Lumoria :)
Doesn't even matter which graphics card you have, it'll be there!

I see, so the issue seems to be on everyone i've asked. Its really strange- hopefully we can find a campaign that does support shadows (if its annoying you) what boggles me most is that it seems such an easy thing to impliment! I dont actually know anything about making maps but if custom singleplayer campaigns and multiplayer maps have them it can't be a massive issue.



Yeah I get all shadows in multiplayer and in completely custom singleplayer maps (like Lumoria) which just makes it all the stranger that I've never ever had enemy or weapon shadows in any of the ports of the original campaign!

have you tried the US version of Halo CE to see if it really is a problem with the Spanish version? If so, maybe theres more to the campaign map issues than just shadows.

All of the campaign maps are listed here And the CMT maps are listed here You will just have to take the time to download the maps and try them because this is the second thread you started about shadows and you could have just as easily downloaded and tried all the campaign maps we host in the time it has taken to repeatedly ask the same question.
