Hello bungie.net community and bungie employees!
In compliance with copyright laws, I'm here to request permission to use ripped Halo 2 models (the Inamberclad, Marathon, and Capital Ship) allong with textures, for a Halo Custom Edition map. Not much too it, just need a simple yes or no from a bungie employee, or, if that's not possible here, the email address of someone who as the legal power to do so. I'm not asking for much, just 3 models and 3 sets of textures.

And, while I'm here, I'll discuss the map to the people that care about Halo CE:
Trepidation is a simple map that takes place in space. The purpose of the map is to play using miniature versions of the many space craft from Halo (human frigate [ie. Inamberclad], Halcyon [ie. Pillar of Autumn], Marathon [the human ship you see in the beginning of Halo 2], the Covenant Battle Cruiser [ie. Truth and Reconciliation], and, lastly, the Capital Ship / Assault Carrier [Regret's ship]
The map is nearing completion, just needs some final details and the approval of bungie to be released to the public.

-Bacon


EDIT:
I forgot to mention that I will, of course, be adding a "Some ship models (C) 2002 Bungie" etc. as a cutscene title that appears at the beginning of the game and to the Post Game Report screen. I always stick credits there anyway...

Well, for a while, there was no Trepidation. But, due to the fact that I actually have quite a lot of experience now from making another vehicle for Halo Custom Edition, it has been a lot easier to start reworking Trepidation. The new version came from scratch, it's just an empty BSP with the current set of vehicles just sitting there. What is interesting about the new Trepidation is that the vehicles are miniscule. For scaling purposes, here is a picture from the Inamberclad being tested in one of my other maps:
Inamberclad in Seperated
(also note the extremely high gamma, this was not taken by me)
A few pictures of it so far:
Note: Please ignore the overly high gammas on these pictures, they weren't taken by me, but by someone else (don't worry, bungie, that person has Halo 2)
Frigate
Assault Carrier
And, of course, the one ship straight from Halo (though, if I could use the one from Halo 2, I would like to):
Halcyon
Hmm.. Just noticed I spelled Halcyon wrong in the image name (they were bitmaps, I resaved them as JPEGs after recieving them)
If you don't mind, check out this recreation of the scale chart @ halo.bungie.org.
The sillouettes of the ships have been replaced with the models.
Scale Chart
And, well, that's pretty much it.
If you have Halo 2, feel free to talk to me on MSN Messenger @ admiralbacon@gmail.com
It is legal for me to give this to people who have Halo 2, but remember, it's your fault if you lie and get punished for it.

I've learned that the hard way, many times. I know not to expect things from people. Especially important people that pay for their own stuff...
For right now, here's what the cutscene title looks like right now:
Cutscene Test
I'm sorry if I made any mistakes in it, it appears for 5 seconds at the start of the game, fading in for 2 seconds, fading out for 2 seconds.
And by 'pending', I mean I haven't gotten a response yet.


EDIT:
@Raiders:
No, Trepidation is:
n. The realization of fear.
As in the fealing everyone on Earth has in Halo 2 when the Covenant fleet starts appearing on the deep space radar.

It's illegal. Idk, you might be able to get permission somehow. I have the beta lol. It's on halomods and halo-universe...
I liked Beta 8 better...

A sky box? Jeez...
Anyway:
If you mixed Beta 8 with it, and get permission for the vehicles (Which I don't think is very likely right now) fixed a few errors (elevator, some bad texures, when you look down you see nothing (ground, beta 8):A perfect map.

Just so you know, the current one is nothing more than the ships.
I'm working on soooo much more.
I have already replaced basis and threshold with the earth and moon.
