So guys how do I do this? I can't find 3ds max 8!!! And I really want to make some maps! Is there a link to that you know about, or is there another progam that I can use? Thank you!

you can get a trial version of 3ds...http://files.modacity.net/software/3dsmax/

or you can use gmax,it's free and isn't a trial...http://www.turbosquid.com/gmax

3ds is far better with more tools etc

your welcome

Ok, great! And can I use the BungieMaxExporter7.dle with that? If so, where do I put it?

maybe you should read this about your BungieMaxExporter7.dle

anyway use the blitzkrieg that comes with the HEK (halo editing kit)

The Blitzkrieg plugin for 3dsmax is for Halo CE. He is referring to making Halo 2 maps.
As for that link to a post about the BungieExporter, I am unsure what purpose that serves or if you even understand what it is Ally. The BungieExporter plugin is a default plugin for 3dsmax 7 and 8 that comes with the Halo 2 Map Editor. It is 100% safe and legit. Just place the plugin in the 3dsmax folder called "plugins", and you will be fine.

first off i didn't even notice this thread was for halo2,as for the BungieExporter i just googled it and that was the first link for it.
your right i had no idea what that was(i work with ce).

so yeah my bad,but at least you got 3ds

Thanks guys! I'll let you know how everything goes... If if works I have an idea for castle map! Might be pretty good... Well see.
