Not to be rude, but relatively few people who are capable of making maps are willing to lend their skills to those who have no mapping experience. It would also appear your idea of what tags are is a bit off. I recommend you use some video tutorials, such as those by kirk, and learn some basic map making yourself first. Then you might look in to assembling a mapping team of some sort on the project recruitment forum. Of course, if you don't want to do that, you could still try posting a scan of your plans for your map, and if anyone finds it to be a real killer of an idea, they might try making it.

That's because people who know what they're doing generally don't take well to being told to do something ridiculous by someone who hasn't got a clue (no offense) about what they're talking about. Like, if I was to post a topic called "MAPPERZ PLZ HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!" or something and then tell everyone I wanted to recreate the whole of the Halo campaign into one massive map and have 200 max players and every texture, model, sound and effect replaced, and then use absolutely HORRIBLE spelling and grammar that most people can't even read because it makes so little sense, I have no doubts that I would be told in no undertain terms to go fuck myself.

No not realy.

No what fine... And one steels this ill kill you and if some one says "no one would still this" ill kill you too.



This is the one i realy would like to do.

Center of the map there is a covenent ship crashed into the ground. You can enter the ship explore thers viecle bays, partly destoryed armorys(like stuff is missing). At the front of the ship were it is compleatly submerged in the ground there is a hole blown out were you can enter caves. The caves lead back out side of the ship to Red or Blue base(depending which way you go) The bases are tall Forerunner towers. The whole map is surrounded by cliffs execpt for were the ship entered there is a hole with a rock side that leads into some over hangs. In the caves in the cliffs there are some Forerunner test labs were you can get forerunner weapons.

This map would include:

Weapons...
Remade Human weapons
New and remade Covenent Weapons
Forerunner Weapons.

Veicles...
More Balanced Banshee
Transport Worthog
Forerunner Fighter

The only thing i needed help with was the covy ship.


And why does every one just spaz at new people or at least people they think are knew. Im not saying ive been here for a long time... but i do have a clue of whats going on. I have a good understanding of halo and im not a fucking retard.

people dont want to help people with an entire map... because its A LOT OF WORK

If you were to model it... and ask questions along the way... you would probably get a better reply... and not just someone flaming you for asking A LOT from a person.

Try making a map before asking for help... you'll understand why people dont want to do the map for you.

This is EXACTLY what I meant. I had to read that 3 times to understand what you were trying to say through all the awful spelling and grammar, and death threats like that really show your lack of maturity. Aside from that, good luck carrying those threats through, because I doubt you could find any of the members let alone murder them. Then what, a life sentence for taking someone's life over an IDEA for a map? That's just pathetic.

As for your idea, yeah, it sounds good. There are quite a few issues with it though, mostly the sheer size of the map means you'll probably be lucky to see another player in a day of wandering around. You could combat that with clever placement of spawns, weapons, objectives, etc... but then there's the problem of how the hell you're meant to find your way around without getting lost, the complexity of the map will require either some really really major portalling or equally major low-polyness.

And for future reference... the idea of crashed ships, tunnels and towers all on the one map isn't something you just brilliantly invented. Me and Reaper Man were planning out a crashed Covenant cruiser with a desert plateau featuring a massive Forerunner tower and tunnel system months ago, before we decided to get rid of the ship.

Not trying to flame, just my 2 cents.

um... well just to let you know those weren't death treats, i some times forget people dont' know my personality.

I thought up the idea up about the time halo 2 came out. You now that big ship be plants the bomb in i thought that would be a sweet ship to be crashed. But at the time when halo 2 came out i thought it would be simple o what a big mistake. Omg. that ship is so hard to do. Hey Rosmum could i see that map you guys made. And i know my grammer(not that bad but i think faster then i can type so i usually am ahead of my self and stuff doent's make sence.) and especialy spelling sucks. so get over it. :D :D

We haven't made it yet. Reaper started the main part of the BSP and left it unfinished, I'm gonna pester him into completing it later. I might post my lousy freehand Photoshop concept of the tower in the middle when I get home, if you want.

Try half that size at most. Hugeass and Coldsnap were like novelty maps, their size made them unique but also rather nasty if you got shot down and had to either walk 5km or wait 15 mins for a pickup...

I don't think you know what a tag actually is, from the sounds of things... Go look around the tutorials section and stuff to try get a better idea of how CE works.

And what do you mean camouflaged, do you mean active camo or just colours that tone in?

Don't double post.

I don't really think it would matter, although I'm inclined to say the idea of making the Hog invisible isn't that great. It gives the nubs another horribly imbalanced vehicle to play with, the Banshee was bad enough, and you could see that plain as day...
