Map Name-Augury
Maker-Arteen

This is a symmetric, circular level with bases on either ends. The level is outdoors and circular. The structures are styled after the Halo the level structures. The weapon set is classic with the Covenant weapons modified for balance.

With Gmax, all by hand. I modeled the some of the structures, such as the middle one, after pics of Halo the level and Danger Canyon. I'm not sure why you are curious about how I made it.

Holy crap! Nice work as always, Arteen. Concat had some problems though...I stood in the shadow and my faceplate turned black and all shinyness on my armor disappeared but when I went in light it went back to normal...When i was in the shade it look like I didnt have a gfx card. Anyways, what is Gmax? I got 3ds max. Costs a lot. Is Gmax free? Info please. Nice map btw lol.

I just used the HaloMods video tutorials. I never did any 3D modelling before then and haven't needed any other tutorials. I've only 3D modeled for about three-four months total. It just requires lots of patience, practice, and creativity.

Gmax is the free, less powerful version of 3DSMax. Gmax can only be used for making levels though. It can't be used to make vehicles or weapons. That's because Gmax is unsupported by HEK. It requires the user-made script Chimp to use. The script does just enough to allow map-making, but it doesn't export markers, which means no weapons or vehicles.

Holy S***, just lately, I havent been playing halo 2 because there have been so many cool CE maps.

Posted: **Sat May 21, 2005 6:48 pm**

I only kept Halo 2 because it has XBL...

Anyways, Arteen. I love your maps (and you LOL). Do you use Gmax the same way you use 3ds max 7? If so, PM me with some info. I LOVE THIS MAP

Gmax and 3DS Max work the same way. They are almost the same program. 3DS Max is just more powerful and has more features.

I used these tutorials and the one that comes with the HEK. They're for 3DS Max, but will work equally well for Gmax. Except for the occasional question, this is all the help I've needed for modeling and mapmaking. This site is also helpful.
