HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

hey guys. i have this greeeaaat idea for a CE map. or at least I think its cool! anywho. my map takes place in the halo 2 campaign map "Uprising". i already ripped all the .obj files from the map, merged them with the OBJ model merger 2.0, and opened it in 3ds max 7. now, what do i do from here? i just want the model of the level. everything else will be purely halo 1 style (weapons, textures, etc). i figured i should be able to open the level's new merged .obj file and simply export it straight to .jms but 3ds max tells me there are "no actors to export" and then tells me it failed to export. i'm quite the noob when it comes to this but i really want to make this map. so exactly what should i do?

also once i figure all this out i will need help on how to texture it lol... i have a basic idea of how to but...yea. this n00b just needs some guidance[/u][/i]

Halo 2 > Halo 1 ripping is illegal.



As for your map not exporting, read the official HEK tutorial

wasnt there some modding team called like CMT or something that ripped from halo 2?

Yes but they do not support ripped content anymore. Rip at your own risk as it is illegal.
Incase you're wondering that is indeed me in that picture.

Go ahead and make your own Halo 2 models for Halo CE, but ripping the direct Halo 2 models is illegal. Sorry.


St. Louis Rams Fan, is Yoyorast Island 2 still in progress?

I was just talkin to Rams on MSN and me and him have not seen Yoyorast in a long while. We dont really know what's going on.

well fudge. everytime i played that level i thought it would be a neat multiplayer map.... i dont suppose anyone would be willing to make a fresh, copied model of it for me possibly (or at least make it similar, doesnt have to be perfect)? i suck at modeling...
if anyone is interested and wants more details on exactly how i plan on making this map pm me.

thanks anyway guys

i think i downloaded a map a while ago that had the bulidings from turf on it but idk who made the map
