hi all, i want to make my own map and i can understand blender and all halo modding tools but i never tried this

i have the following tools: HHT
gimp
HEK
HMT v3.5
sparkedit v3.02
blender
eschaton

i was told that if i want to do this i need to do it in halo CE so can some one break it down for me and tell me where to start?

None of those tools are for Halo CE.
Download the Halo Editing Kit (HEK) and then go to the tutorials section.

Most likely a performance issue.

ok i have used 3d max to make my level and all but im stuck on one part, the part in CREATION OF A LEVEL PART 2 where you have to select the outside edge of the bottom of the box once it has been tessilated, that way you can raise the edges of the map.
but once i try to select the outside edges it wont let me keep selecting, it will only let me select one at a time, and i am under "edit mesh" in the modifier category, what am i doing wrong and how to i select all 128 polygons around the map?
