Obviously, this is the public beta for the new version of the UUI that will launch alongside B30: Evolved. We have yet to make the new bitmaps yet, so this has yet to get it's reskin and is well... ugly. Functionality wise, everything here SHOULD work. However, the last thing we want to do is release it with any functionality problems, so I am posting it for any of you who wish to explore it. Mattdratt did pretty much all the work on this revision, so kudos to him. The changes in this are isolated to the CMT section, but during the extraction and tinkering of things, it is possible other things have broken, hence the public beta.

Enjoy!!!

Neat.

Can we get some pics?

Pics or it didn't happen.

Okay; so here is the deal, the update pretty much updates the CMT stuff in anticipation for the Silent Cartographer Evolved release. Are there any new maps or anything that should be added since the last update?

I also had to cut a portion of the scripts because I couldn't get it to compile. I have no idea what it did and it didnt seem to affect anything so please test it.

Add a category for sub-par blood gulch mods XD

I imagine that the screens fading in and out when selecting a campaign not being there anymore is due to this being a beta?

The dialog boxes retain Halo 1 elements and the fade animations are missing


The dialog boxes are proper and there are fade animations

Oh and also to inform the UI makers including Mooseguy and CMT, I want to have the UUI but with Halo 2 main menu music only. Halo 2 is so kewl

If you guys are going to update the menu, for the love of god change the music.

Even if its something like this, it'd be okay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVbQo3IOC_A

No but really just take the music from the Lumoria UI, and stick it in this one.

And also, plz and an option in the campaign menu for the cross-game feature with missions like The MAster Chief Saga just like "Halo: The Master Chief Collection."

You know I would love to see a MCC based UI...

YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES YEEEEESS!!!!

Keep it coming guys. Music is def going to change, I can't stand the current music either.

So you mean add a playlist for a bunch of flood SP maps, ODST SP maps, etc? That'd be pretty sweet.

Must you bring everything back to Lumoria?

Masterz Revenge huehuehue kill all ponies bitzchez!

do something like this



the de playlist could be a level selection



or

And pls add halo 3 pc too.

We're not making significant changes to the layout of the UUI. Just going to swap in new bitmaps and strings where appropriate.

damn :(

Oh well guys, nothing stops you from ripping it and adding all yer mc collection cross game stuffs though.

Also my reaction:

I am not saying that, I say that they should do something more to halo style

This is a UI in a halo style....

No, I mean something like h2, h3, reach, CEA or halo 4 menu

Make it yourself

You are going to have to be a little more specific than that. When you say Halo 2 style I don't see what you mean. Halo 1 and 2 UI was identical in terms of placement. Halo 3 was the same just with the menu to the bottom left. If you mean updated images from later halos then that's a terrible idea. It gives this horrible feeling when you see images of models from Halo 3 but then you are greeted with a jonhlex map. If you mean the slick and futuristic looking blue then that's debatable. Do you mean the way campaigns were separated in your previous image?

Implying that H2/H3/Reach/CEA/H4 are more "Halo-style" than Halo 1

One thing I noticed is that it doesn't fade into the new windows nicely like the old one did. You should bring that feature back :P

Can you please make some nice HD textures for the next one? I can't stand all the pixelated letters and bitmaps...

yes to fresh prince of bel air theme music! no to mcc collection... never that.. ever..

Hey, everyone! I noticed that this UUI update has been going on in anticipation of releasing with CMT's B30 Evolved. As such, I have begun coordinating with Masterz and MD. Let's make this an enjoyable update!




The reason that many UI elements are low-res is because Bungie designed Halo's UIs to display at 640x480 pixels. This display size is merely scaled up when the game's settings are changed. Thus, I cannot increase the pixel density of the bitmaps within the interface.

should have a feature to download and install single player maps that are not owned (but are available)

Not possible
