MCC Update
Updated the map to work with patch 1.3272.

Update v1.1.3.2
-One more Race mode fix.

NOTE: I raised the Mod's minimum game compatibility version to 1.3232.0. If you're on a lower patch of MCC, the map will disappear from your Custom Multiplayer menu. Please update to the latest MCC patch to fix this problem. This shouldn't be much of an issue for most players, but different MCC patches do affect gameplay for some players.

NEW CONTENT UPDATE!!! v1.1
------------------------------------------------------------------
-A terrible twisting tornado. 🌪
-Teleport tents with Vehicle Pickup spots. 🏧
-Improved map design. 🗺
-New vehicles. (Can you spot them?) 🚘

KNOWN ISSUES:
- The tornado doesn't show up while spinning for other players so the host has to guide them where it's going. In a way, it makes it more fun and menacing but not what I intended. Halo 1's engine is very advanced and ahead of its time, but a bit limited. Who knows, I might port this map to Halo 2 or remake it in the future.

BUGFIXES:
--------------------------------------------------
-Fixed tumbleweed naming for "flipping" it. It originally showed <invalid string entry>. I didn't know how strings worked in this game. 😅

Improvements during map development:
-LIGHTMAPS. uhhhghghgh. I should've used the "low" setting for rendering the world lighting. It reduced so many hours of generating it. What once was 15 hours was now 4 to 5. I had it on “medium”. Even on low, it doesn't look that much different except for the baked shadows looking a bit low-res. It's not as bad as "turd" where it makes the lighting look muddy.

-Extra features I discovered in the tag editor: I just learned how to changed the object color. I was about to bake a green color to the car pickup orb’s texture in the map. The tornado "suck" effect was pretty easy and was teased as the biggest feature of this update. I thought it would be hard to implement through some advanced scripting, but it turned out to be very simple. The more you know. 😉

-SCRIPTING: There's a lot more scripts running in the background for this update to stitch everything together. The initial version just had a script for spawning the tumbleweeds. HaloScript (or ahem... BlamScript 🤨) is the weirdest language I've ever programmed. But, it all compiled with no errors (for the most part).

-MAP DETAIL: I increased the polygons for the sand terrain. This not only made the lighting more detail, but it also made some of the terrain smoother to drive on.

Welp, that's all for now folks! What's next... I'm exploring other games, and I'll probably check out the Source engine. For now, I need a looooonnng break from modding this game. I'll catch up on the campaign on my own time. It was fun and I hope you all enjoy this amazing map. I know you'll like more of it.

THUMBNAIL FIXED. I forgot how lol
