hey- umm...i know alot of people dont like beginner's maps, but for those of you who actually DO like to see/teach people stuff on how the maker can improve, id like to say i made two maps today. I am a beginner. Umm, i dont have an official site...so i guess u can add me to xfire if you want them. "addicted2halo" is me screen name, so ugh. Thanks!

it's not that people hate a beginner's map, it's that people hate stupid box maps.

well, the first map, "shutup" is the first map i ever made with vehicles in it...and it took me quite a long time to make. Its got wonderful textures as well.

the second one, "outside", has halo2 textures! Not only that, but this is my first map where i ever made scenery! I got trees, tree stump, AND, THIS IS HUGE CAUSE THIS REALLY MAKES THE MAP LOOK GOOD, LIGHTS!

yes, its alot of extruding, but it has a ladder, and im really proud of both of em.

pics?

well, not tonight, but tomarrow or friday i will certainly take them and post em. One of them is actually screwed up. My sapien aint workin properly. I made 3 banshees at one base, and theres only 1 when its in game. They just- dissapeared. But sure- ill post em!

sounds ok.....

after 10 days of trying to make and mod maps.... i gave up.... so boring....

aww... why u think its boring? no good ideas? or just too hard?


Chew 20 times before swallowing your steak!

that...... that statement could be misconstrued for some other vulgar thing. you know, not trying to be that guy that has to point that out but, uhh yeah....

ANYWAY have you seen my maps? i cant do textures becuase im a loser but other than that, i can model decently, im pretty good at biped and weapon animations, i know the hek in and out with the exception of lights and physics, and i script at an intermediate level (and i only say that becuase i managed to script an entire SP level)... how long did it take me? started last November. id never touched 3d software, i wasn't even aware of making custom halo stuff and when i started, my idea of a good map was blood gulch with plasma shooting human turrets on ever wall and teleports everywhere. now my idea of a good map is.... i cant even type it... but u get the point. you should try. u dont know what you can do

sorry to hear u cant texture right...im great at it! see, what i do is- i select every face that is going to be a certain texture, and set it to something small- usually i make floors 300 X 300. Cause it looks realistic to the chief. And they all blend!

(I didnt mean nuffin by the statement about steak...)

Remember- HUMANS CANNOT FLY! DONT JUMP OFF THAT CLIFF!

I haven't even begun scripting sp maps. I try using tutorials on scripting, got through that, put scripts in right place, it sucessfully compiled, started Halo, and the script doesn't work. Yes, I do put triggers on the scripts where they are required.
