I see what looks like the screenshot room on orbital, but i want the little effect that looks like the energy sword, but really long: Bungie.net : Halo 3 File Details
That doesnt really tell him how to get the effect... @ OP: The picture wasnt taken in the screenshot room, it was take the 28th of january before the mythic maps were out.. I think its taken at a certain angle, wile a bubble shield is just thrown, and the pose, hes obviously dead..
its made on avalanche...im guessing somewhere in the cave...and a reply at bungie.net confirms its a bubble sheild shot.
OOOO I know how he made it Ok so he went in the cave on avalanche, threw down a lot of bubble shields in the exact same place, had a guy board a chopper, and looked through the edge of the bubble shields(you will notice lots of layers when you look through it) at the guy while it does the chopper boarding animation...its hard to get it right though....now how do I know how he made this pic? I'm portable penguin the guy who made it XD
