I am just wondering about the maps that Sphinx Bio puts out, the most recent of which being a slight tweaking of the Powerhouse map. The maps seem to be consistently low quality... I really have no idea, being very new to the Custom Edition community. Can anyone clue me in?

I would agree on the fun part to some extent, but over all, the only thing I see is a bunch of ripped weapons and vehicles plastered onto some mediocre Bsp's. A lot of the weapons are buggy and strange to play with as well...
Meh, just seems to be more about putting out as many maps as possible regardless of the quality and less about making a good map... |

A thing you will learn about SphinxBio, he does not create any content.
He rips other people's work (credited or not), and sticks them in whatever maps he pleases. I think it's really pointless to download any map made by him. Edited by MoooseGuy on Oct 25, 2010 at 05:32 AM |

Edited by MoooseGuy on Oct 25, 2010 at 05:32 AM Yeah, thats what it seemed like to me. I have noticed a rather nice Halo 3 Banshee, that uses an actual Halo 3 model, in a couple of his more recent maps, but I presume that is ripped as well. I really only download his maps looking for random models and such I can stick in Halo: PC for my own visual pleasure... Edited by Bobblehob on Oct 25, 2010 at 05:40 AM |

Good luck extracting those models.
His maps are protected. You have to do a lot of work to get the tags you need out of it. |

I actually have a rather nice little tool that I can use to unprotect any map that I have, it has worked especially well for his maps. But since I really have very little actual CE knowledge it is mostly useless...

Yeah, he protects all his maps though he doesn't actually make anything, and as far as ripping his content, don't worry about it, I only use it to spruce up my PC experience, I dont release anything for any reason. Was part of the agreement when I got my copy of the de-protector tool. |

Consequently, I actually have no qualms about handing out tags and such from his maps to anyone who is interested, considering they aren't his to begin with. If anyone is interested, pm me.
