just one last question... i've already built a map (sample map just to practice on) but how do i play it?

Seems like you got hit with noobism or something.
You put your custom map in the halo ce/maps directory and then open haloce.

yeah sorry about the spelling bigafair.
I'm not on my own computer right now because i'm still at school, what i think i did was i put the saved map into the maps folder for Halo CE and the map was called "Holes" but it didn't work.

STFU. It's people like you who are the reason that HaloMods has gone down the crapper. Flamers like you ruined this site, which was the center of the tight-knit modding community LONG before mapping was even possible. I'd know, I was here. But no, n00btards like you had to flame flame flame until the talented people all got driven away (mono for example). I guess you @$$holes still haven't learned that you're helping to destroy the community with every insulting post you make. Also, you are SO not helping us get to 1000 players and get a patch for CE by yelling at people like you just did. It's wrong, uncalled for, rude, and overall just plain stupid. We need every player we got to log on this week during the "Time for 1000!" event so we can finally get that patch, and by you flaming everyone who's interested in CE, but has a simple ? on how to get started for being a "noob", then we won't get there, will we?! So shut up, get down off your high chair, and sit on the f****** ground. Don't flame people who have honest questions. Period.

amen to that that's why i don't post here

lets try to keep everything here on the subject thats posted please. thankyou

ok making this map didn't work out for me. it was just to big of a hassle for me so someone can make this map and they get most of the credit. just pm me, email me, or im me. doesn't matter. I admit that i'm a n00b when it comes to actually making a map so i'm leaving it up to somebody else that actually knows how to make a map.

Master Chief1 · Post by **Master Chief1** » Wed Oct 13, 2004 2:03 pm

ok i'll let everybody know my idea for the map design. here are just a few things that must be in the map:

1: there are two bases. One is for covenant ai and the other is for regular players.

2: The covenant base only has covenant weapons and the mc base only has human weapons (makes sense

) also you can add new weapons here if you want

3: The covenant base only has covenant vehicles in it and the mc base only has human vehicles. (you can make your own vehicle if you want to add to this map

)

4: There must be a place on the side of the map that is thick with trees and plants that it is easy to get lost in. That will make the map much more interesting. The wooded area must take up at least a fourth of the map space. (you can add something secret in the middle of the wooded area if you want

)

If anybody wants to do this map then please tell me by either pming me or emailing me. There is something else that must go into the map as well but its a surprise if anybody does decide to do this map

so does nobody want to do this?

My friends and I thought that this was a pretty good idea. Come on! doesn't anybody want to do this for me

sounds pretty good - but you didnt take into account some things

1) the AI are completely stupid - the only thing they are is acuate. other than that they are dumb

2) i dont know if its even possible to make AI get into vehicles, let alone drive them.

3) The map needs more detail than "2 bases, one covie and one human"

4) You wouldnt be able to have more than 8 people playing...

1) so what if the ai are completely stupid. as long as their fun to kill that thats ok with me.

2) if they can't then big deal. we can make them spawn in the vehicle. also i know that they can drive because what about in halo first player when the covenant can fly the banshee's, fire the shades, drive the ghosts, and drive the wraithes? You can probably use the ai from those.

3) the map detail is up to the person that is creating the map. the only thing that needs to be in there is the bases and the thick woods thats easy to get lost in (as well as the secret in the map but only the maker and I will know about it

)

4) so then only 8 people gets to play at a time? who cares? if the person is desprit enough then they can join a different server with less people in it or just create their own.

Dude if we knew how to use that ai we would... currently were using out own scripts... not the ones from sp. once we learn how to use those THEN ai maps will come back.
