Stuntmutt begins another series of themed One One Se7en strips; the first pays homage to that master of imagination, Bill Watterson.

Halo: Resolution adds a new… character? Item. Whatever. It’s big.

We’ve added last Friday’s Weekly Bungie Update to the local archive – remember, if you ever need to find that tidbit you sort of remember, it’s searchable.

Every now and then, I’m reminded why it’s so cool that developers visit our boards sometimes. Yesterday, RunningRiot asked a question: how come the ping he measured from his desktop to a particular Halo PC server was lower than the ping reported in-game by that same server? botman, a member of the Halo PC dev…

Fury Three has done a nice job summing up what’s available out there in the Lego world; some of these links have been posted before, but the collection, together, is worth keeping track of. The Pelican he points out is pretty impressive!

Very slick… Xhzjang has released Halo No Hud mod v1.5, with a flying camera; it comes in two pieces. Piece one removes the HUD entirely; piece two turns the Banshee invisible (along with its occupant), making for a flying camera on levels with a Banshee. I just tried it, and it works beautifully! If you’re…

c0ld vengeance has updated his Movie Starter Guide to include some basic information about recording Halo on a PC or a Mac. (He didn’t just do this for a front-page mention… he actually felt that people might NEED this information. No, really.) If you’re looking for tools to record Halo on your computer – check…

Whoa, cool. Vicious Circle decided he really liked the guitar solo from Silent Carttographer… so he tabbed it out for guitar. You can view it online, or download it as a Word document (link is on the page). Get to playin’!

Continuing to try and clear out the Wallpaper queue – there are another 20 desktops for you today (25 if you count variants). Check ’em out!

Interesting. The team from Homefront, the Battlefield 1942 mod, is working on a space map, called Alpha Centauri. Battle will take place on a pair of capital ships, and the asteroid field between them. Sounds like fun! There’s a Q&A session about the map over at the main Battlefield 1042 site. Thanks to Ecko, at…

Yesterday, BOLL messed with some new Flash stuff. It was pretty easy to overlook; at first glance, it blended right in. His newest offering doesn’t quite do that…

I’ve already changed local links on the 1.04 Mac Halo updater, so that there’s no confusion about which files to update. (The first updater, from 1.03 to 1.04, had some serious issues. The new updater, from 1.03 or 1.04 to 1.041, solves these.) However, the press release sent out by MacSoft on Thursday pointed to…

Whoa. ViolentlyHappy ran across a pretty bizarre glitch when updating his Mac Halo to 1.041 yesterday. (He fixed it by reinstalling from the CD, and patching the clean version… but it’s still pretty weird stuff.)

Today’s One One Se7en was supposed to be yesterday’s One One Se7en – after all, it’s a Holiday strip. Stuntmutt didn’t count on my overwhelming incompetence, however; I think MC’s rubbing off on me. Anyway, go read it. It’s nice when people look on the bright side.

Matt Grap sent along a few screenshots of some work a friend is doing; he’s in the process of porting the Halo weapons to Marathon. (Well, okay, Aleph One.) Right now, he’s working on adding melee attacks as secondary fire for each weapon. The love just doesn’t stop! Check these out:Flamethrower (139k)Assault Rifle (137k)Rocket Launcher…

Walshicus submitted a monster collection of work; a star chart of the Halo universe, along with an enormous amount of information about these and other stars. We’ve packaged the lot and (hopefully) made it easy to follow; you can find it in our Miscellaneous section. Fan Fiction writers… take note of his comments near the…

BOLL has done it again – check out the secrets revealed in this post. (If you can’t figure out where they are, try the banners at the top.)

Yesterday, we posted a note from MacSoft, that an updater for Mac Halo that would bring the application up to parity with its PC counterpart had been released. As many noticed, there was a problem with the updater; it introduced more glitches than it solved. Westlake has fixed the problems, though, and a new updater…

And AGAIN, he forgets. 🙁 Today’s Guest One One Se7en is from Chris Fraser, and warns of asking for things you might get…
