HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

WTF This is so ****. Im doing fine with HEK using the video tutorials on halomods.com. I have my 3ds max ( model made and the blitzgrieg thing plugin loaded. When i export my map as a JMS, 3ds max does it (makes the JMS file because i can see it in the folder that i saved it to), ... then an error comes up and 3ds max 8 closes on me. Whatever, I ignore that and make the shaders with tool in CMD but when i build the map (using the command "tool structure levels\ ..." this is the sh!t CMD feeds back to me

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games>
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games>tool structure levels\RockHard RockHard
Couldn't read map file './toolbeta.map'
building intermediate geometry...
### ERROR model file has wrong version number.

I need help from one of u mappmaking gods

I think you need help from someone other than a map making god....

maybe an anger management therapist?

I have a similar problem with max8. For me I create the model and textures and what not. That's good, but every now and then max will close when I export. This is what I do:

In my case, it's the Unwrap UVW Mapping that craches. Create you frame and start making your level, and save often along with a "Save Copy As" and after you save, export. I have also noticed that that max will attempt to create the jmp file, and it will, but no data is written, so you have levels\test\map or what ever your directory is, and the file is 0 bytes.

I'm thining of renewing a student license of max7 cause I have had little errors with that.

I'm sure you do, but do you have the max 6 version of Blitzkieg? It works with Max 6 7 & 8

u download blitzkreig or w/e for 6,7,8 at halomaps..
