Ok, this is entirely eschalon, and my first Halo Demo mod, so don't expect much crazy skillwise ok?
Why it is a beta is for two reasons:

1) I need to fix the text

2) Plasma rifle kinks

Here is everything (I remember) that is modded:
WEAPONS
Shottie - Slower RoF, 6 shots, more accurate
Pistol - 3 shot Spew Time, but the fast shooting does make it less accurate so be close for the perfect shot
Plasma pistol - Does not overheat... I thought I just raised the threshold but apparently not.
Fuel rod - Tracks very accurately, no arc.
Rocket launcher - Arc
Plasma grenade - lesser arc

MAP
Orange fog (dust) present
Wind is present

Speculation: How do you change the skybox and the universal lighting?

And, Finally, the link

I've never really been a fan of any mod with altered fog... makes it hurt my eyes. I suppose there might be a way to use fog to one's advantage, but even in the screenshot Veen posted, it looks uncomfortable optical-wise.

To answer your question: to change the sky, go into eschaton 7 and they should be the first few tags that start with sky/. I don't know if it really qualifies as a skybox, because if you manage to look beyond the cliff walls, you'll just see an orangy whitish color (happens if you fall through the map), which is just the color of fog. I haven't played through halo 1 campaign, but I don't think halo has an actual skybox.

Halo does have a sky box but it's the space one from teh UI.
Looks a lot better than my first mod XD
Does anyone still have mai Rofl mod?
Mai testers said it was fun to screw with joiners using it but I gave up on it halfway to V1

Perhaps you can add more dust?

If you're talking about CE, skybox is actually where the BSP is in. (not the sky)
