Oh and maybe how to put an elite into a multi player level like damnation.

I have hek.. and thats not what I was asking. and please if its not useful don't post it..I'm already annoyed with these programs.

Actually it was the correct answer to what you were asking. HEK is the program set you use to make/edit maps. However, from your reply it is obvious that you were not asking the right question. Your misplaced annoyance aside, the question is not what program to use, which he answered correctly, but HOW. The answer to that can be found by looking here:

How do I Make Halo CE maps
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?nid=406

Also search will make your brain expand
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?Search=map+making+tutorial

As you are the moderator, dennis, and I mean no disrespect, I'm afraid that's not entirely true. Hek is a series of programs not just 1 program, which is where I meant "That's not what I am asking."
In truth I do not know exactly how to use all of the programs, such as "sapien" which is just a waste of my time <download time> and I find it very useless. I might add calling me stupid as I ASSUME is what you meant by "Also search will make your brain expand." I have used the search and not interested in what I see mainly because I have no interest in making maps. Just putting specific things into maps for my own fun.

So if you aren't going to use Sapien, then what will you use???? As far as I know, that is the only program I know of that you can place weapons in a map, in less you use Sparkedit, I tried it ounce, but Sapien is much better. Honestly, I don't think you have a clue what you are talking about.



Edited by The Spartan on Jul 14, 2007 at 05:10 PM

if you want to put a BR in an existing map you must use HEK+ to extract the .scenario open it in sapien and place the weapons there. or open it in guerrilla and put it in the starting equipment.

Then maybe you didn't understand my question. As it is you people are quite irritating. If you want to continue to refer to me as "stupid" then whatever. But NOW that I have the information I asked. I guess any further information as useless, seeing as there are better places to go for help, I'll just figure it out on my own.

i never called you stupid. and whatd'ya mean by "you people." i only tried to help you.

We didn't say you are stupid, just because you can't use HEK, it doesn't mean you are stupid, do you think everyone in the world knows how to make a Halo map?? If they don't, does it make them stupid??? Everyone was a noob one day, that is fine, but when someone tries to give you advice, in less they are being extremely disrespectful, you shouldn't get mad.

And also, you were asking an impossible question, there is no one program, you would have to extract it with HEK+ (different than HEK) and add it with Sapien, add it to globals with Gurrilla, and use tool to build a cache file, definatly not one program.


Edited by The Spartan on Jul 14, 2007 at 05:36 PM

I was not referring to you corndogman. by the time I submitted that post yours was already there.
And I was ot searching for 1 program and I'm sorry if it sounded that way. But from what I understood you were only listening to 1/2 of what I said, making "you people" irritating. Last, Why didn't you just say so?

Yes, we weren't "mad" at you or anything, but it is just when you probably have no idea what you are doing, and when we try to help and you deny that we are right, it kinda irritates me. He did "just say so".


Edited by The Spartan on Jul 14, 2007 at 05:39 PM

...again 1/2 what I said...Just never mind, drop the whole thing...

i know you werent talking about me. i was just joking around. i know you didnt mean anything by "you people." and i wasnt trying to make "enemies" refering to kid. sorry i needed something to laugh at today.

What do you mean 1/2 what you said? Mabye you need to be more discriptive, not us. I just want you to realize we are just trying to help. Also, you posted this in the wrong forum.



Edited by The Spartan on Jul 14, 2007 at 05:45 PM

Yeah I noticed it was the wrong forum, and honestly if dennis wants it to happen I'll move it. But about this hek plus, I think its the most unstable program ever... I open it and I go to tools after I open the map and then it just freezes...It's awful.

Yeah, it has frozen a few times, but you don't have to have that adittude about everything, if you don't like it, then I would like to see you make something near as good as it. For now, and probably forever, it is all we have.


Edited by The Spartan on Jul 14, 2007 at 06:09 PM

It might be vista blocking it. And another thing <more detail about the freezes> these little windows try to open then it takes forever then nothing happens..lol. Ah and again it freezes, is there any way to help it out?
Edited by Miso on Jul 14, 2007 at 06:13 PM

Yeah, I don't dislike you or anything, it just seemed like you got frusterated over nothing. You might just of had a bad day or something, it is none of my bisiness.

pretty much, today has been rough. This hek+ doesn't seem to "like" me

Odd enough, I have had like no major crashing problems with my Halo programs hardly ever, that is weird.


Edited by The Spartan on Jul 14, 2007 at 06:19 PM

Well which one did you download? Perhaps mine just isn't the right one.

It might just be Vista. Personally, I'm no big fan of Microsft (actually, not a fan all) except for Halo, Xbox, and stuff like that, but I think Windows isn't that great. I mean it is good, but you can get tons of operating systems that are free that are just as good if not better. (example: Ubuntu Linux)


Edited by The Spartan on Jul 14, 2007 at 06:25 PM

It just might be, for instance, devtrainers and such dont work for halo <anymore> and before I had xp. It would make sense that some utilities won't work..I guess I will have to stick with the new editor for h2v when I get it...

Read it again: "HEK is the program set"
If you want to edit or create maps then you will have to learn or else you will not be able to edit or create maps.
Actually if I wanted to call you stupid I would do so directly, You are the one who thinks you are stupid. No me. I am just telling you that using search will make your brain expand. Which means you will learn things by using the search feature. If you fail to learn things then it is entirely possible that you might indeed be stupid. Only time will tell. I am betting you will learn things though.
There is no difference in the two objectives, you still have to learn how to use the tools in order to edit/make maps.

http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?pg=3&fid=2620 - this is what you will need.

these are the .scenario files used in sapien. you open these in guerrilla if you want to put the BR in your starting equipment. if you want to put them in the map, open sapien and place them in there. you probably dont know how to do that anyways, so here is a good tutorial: http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?pg=3&fid=2664 just skipp past the modeling part, and go to where he opens up guerrilla.

I have to say, I owe all of you 1 and again sorry if I made you mad. I thank you corndogman for the links and dennis for setting me straight, I guess I shouldn't act like I have any rights here seeing as the rules say I don't.. Thank you for all the help.

yaay! i helped a guy. and now he doesnt have an attitude. lol, i like setting examples! (dreams of myself wearing a spedo.....)

Hmm. It seems someone needs to have me show them some lip.. J/k now then I face another problem.. I don't think vista has "cmd"


~edit OMG!!! IT DOES :DDDD
Edited by Miso on Jul 15, 2007 at 10:53 PM

Indeed.

when you have it on dvd, it can always be on.

Edit: yay! page 2. but really its not that great.
Edited by corndogman939 on Jul 15, 2007 at 11:24 PM

Making a new page gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside. Or maybe that's just the wool sweater I ate on a dare last Christmas. I don't know.

congrats on 1000th post. dont worry you dont have to respond to this if you want to stay on 1000 for a little while longer.

Bye-bye post number 1000...

Thanks for congratulating me, but I was staring at my 1000th post celebration avatar, and I just had the perfect idea for a comment to go with that pic.

Next stop: Post number 1337!

i guess i should post my special post here too. its my 300th! not as special as you guys though.

my next goal: 343

Edit: 300 posts! Prepare for glory! lol, sorry i had to say that.
