Thats it for now, have fun pouring through these threads. Went through almost 80 pages looking at these... there was alot of other great ones, too. Feel free to add to the list!

Thanks for the post~ -wow, so y'all weren't lying after all when you said this community used to be a lot more active... o.o

I'm really disappointed that Massacre's unfinished map never got picked up by anyone else..
Does anyone still have any remains of that model?

Just one question: when and why did Dennis choose to stop making this forum private and invitation-only? (Sometimes, I feel like that wouldn't be a terrible idea, today... -.-)

Made me wonder what my first topic was. Wasn't Halomaps of course but I'll share.

I was so excited for Massacre's map. :'(

I think I might still have Retina on my old computer...

I enjoyed the public beta of Fragment from CMT. Around the time those 4 maps had a final release is when HCE seemed most enjoyable(to me, at least).
Edited by Invader Veex on Dec 7, 2013 at 03:23 PM

I did that too

my first custom map was a danger canyon mod, quarantine something... flood in cages in the base. I forgot the name :(


I remember, it was the infection quaritine, reborn, and infection map itself

my abomination of a first map (although it did make use of my first ever custom scenery)

http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=5950

the must unbalanced pos i have ever created (hornets were frigging invincible cept for getting hit by a tank)



look at that crap, i didn't even rotate the water properly

lol that looks like part of a cmt spv2 map

Are we posting our first maps?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeYE65ZIs9k

At least I didn't try to upload it.

Stop stop stop I'm crying tears of nostalgia and they won't go away make it not do this I can't I just can't Higuy why you do this.

Y U DO THIS TO ME

YOU'RE STILL ALIVE :')

my first(and best) attempt at trying to make a multiplayer map, before I knew about the existence of forums

Ahhh the Good Ol' days. I joined back in 2008 trying to get my greedy little hands on all the latest maps and betas. I really was never one for modding or making maps. Just getting my hands on the latest leak or the coolest beta that was out.

I helped with the old Hyrule maps with Arkaman and Cellist.

I always wanted to do something more for this community though when I was beta testing, and it took 2 years but in 2010 I (and Dratt) created CE3.

Heck I don't even remember my first thread I joined in. It was probably me going along the lines "Hi guys im new and how does one put waffles in CE?"

**drops tear** good days,....

Wait, why am I still hanging around this forum?

True dat.

Once you enter you only have one escape rope to use, if you come back you can never leave.

what map is that?

because......you're altheros b**ch?

My first map,

I really laughed with the topic where Dennis closes the registration and says "This option has been implemented until I have time to child proof the web forum code to restrict unwanted spam posts."

Terminal from Halo 2 ported into Halo 1. ZTeam was working on it back when they did Halo 2 ports. As far as I know it was never released.

I don't know the story to the .gif itself, I just know Masters gets destroyed by the train. And it's hilariously classic for some reason.

Doubt it.

CAD hasn't been heard from/seen in ages as far as I know, and that gif is from yeaaaaaaaars ago.

I'd much rather try to get my hands on Mass's old map anyway. I'd finish it for him even if I don't make maps anymore here :p

Am seriously considering copying / modeling mass's models. I should do it?
Edited by Maniac1000 on Dec 9, 2013 at 09:04 PM

here is the terminal bsp: http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=5795 not sure if its zteam's or not but its all there. (i plan to finish it up after rats nest is done)

by the way where did that renders thread go?
i finally render something and its noiwhere to be found :P
anyways real photo:


Render:

excuse the image noise, this was rendered back when blenders cycles rendering system was in its infancy.

I got heart-broken yet once again, so I guess I will make a return. Modeling again will pr0lly prevent me from drowning in my own sorrows.

Sorry, I don't have any of the models. The only model I have is the Pillar of Autumn themed level that I'm currently working on. Otherwise, I would have gladly give you the models.

aah. gotta love that bump, found some old posts i never knew i made

anyways if we are going to bump it we might as well continue...


what about the complete and utter dissapointment that the forums felt when chBgt909 had his laptop stolen right when he was so close to finishing this: http://forum.halomaps.org/index.cfm%3Fpage=topic&topicID=42553&start=596
