any of them still around? Like Halohogger n them, I know it's been years an people grow up, move on to new things but yeah, who's still here from 2008 and under.

Not a whole bunch really, but a few are. Some of them are still online periodically - but don't do CE work.

I qualify, right? Nearly seven years now. I'm yet to get a life.
I still play multiplayer, but haven't gotten around to replacing my retail package since I lost it a couple years ago, so my server options are a little limited, and it didn't seem I was missing much in the custom maps hosted, but then I gave bigass a shot and found it interesting. So I regained some interest in CE recently and will probably continue to pay moderate attention to these forums for another month or two.
I've gotten familiar with 3ds and maxscript, and don't mind helping with them or whipping up a quick script. For example, a simple maxscript command to transfer edge selection to vert selection, for a selected editable mesh, would be $.selectedVerts=meshop.getVertsUsingEdge $ $.selectedEdges. Replace meshop with polyop for editable poly. That transfer function returns a bitarray, which can AND/OR/XOR with other bitarrays for more complex things like getting verts that aren't on open edges, or getting edges or verts belonging only to a set of faces.
Most things done with 3ds's UI can be scripted. This goes for gmax, too. Simple one-liners like the one above can be entered in the mini-listener, the text box in max's lower left corner.

Not many. It's been too long.

Well least some are still here, I guess Gramma is gone, if I remember his name right. Tank avatar last time I checked.

I just asked due to the past...3 or 4 years Halomaps haven't posted much maps since 2011, I recall that's when things stopped moving. I also asked cause well......well yeah it's been a long time i'm sure most of us miss hanging out with your old buddys in CE playing around Death island doing the wall glitches while people rams you out the wall using Dev mode, making usless videos on whatever, taking Photos with each other, having friendly matches on bloodgluch or custom maps like......idk whatever you all liked playing on.

*smiles*

You mean Gamma? He formatted computer/or got a new one, can't remember but he told me he lost everything.

No wonder he stopped posting on youtube I really liked his vids.

Funny how everything we done in the past either gets blown up, hard drive dies or lose the usb we had our hard work on.

Mines was hard drive problems, lost everything I worked on then this year realized it left my backups on mediafire or whatever the download site is now.

I find it weird that my hard drives on my old desktop has yet to crash, and it is several years old

I'm still here, I haven't left in years. Been here since 2005 back when i was only 12. It's sad t see people leave, but new faces and mappers come and take their place.

I've been here for a while, used a old account h3freak09. Besides that I didn't really start till this account.

Gamma is still very much active, he just doesn't log into xfire or halo maps very often (halo maps even less)

I'm not really here, but I am old. Are you my son? Where's my pills?

I have a feeling that some old members are going to come back from the dead just to post in this, if they are looking around here, that is.

I really would like to know what Sonicextream is up to these days, youTube banned his account for bull**** reasons so cause of that idk what hes up to now.

all those gundom models he made were pretty epic.

A lot of people have left/banned others are trolling/spamming w/ altern accs. Honestly I have no idea why I still hang around, but guess since I'm here, I will throw some models for the funs of old timez.

im not a map maker but ive been here forever. actually just logged back in for the first time in years just to post this lmao idk what made me visit this site again

Cause this site has "Astral Attraction"!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im a fresh map maker in training, and a veteran perfect combat unit in beating the old and new of the creations(even if it takes forever)

I'm not a mapper, but I like to pop in every few months. I've been around since HCE was called the HEK and was going to be "a patch", since Halo Reach was an ill-fated fan project, and since Schwinzz (Wartorn Cove) was a 3DSMax render. That was all back when I was like 14?

Now I'm an old married geezer with a kid. Go figure what can happen in 10 years.

^You, I remember :) Log on sometimes, just to check what has happened.

This.

I remember back when servers were hosting casualty gorge (I think that's what it was called), blood islands and schwinnz_alpha - the basic layout of wartorn with no textures except the ground haha

I officially started mapmaking and joined the forums back in 2008, but before that I had been a Halo Trial modder for a few years. Ah, good ol' Sparkedit and HHT.

you know who I miss? that guy who worked on flood assault. I want a flood campaign :(

I come by and lurk every so often to see any familiar usernames still making maps. It's cool seeing the same people still making maps from back when I first signed up as DA Death.

Return man, I returned a few months back

Yep I remember people who didn have full Halo full had a hard time hexing Halo Trial for use in HHT lol.

Iv also took everything from the Full version from Sky,vehicle, weapons, scenery and textures from EVERY map an added it into trail, so epic but same time the game became unstable to the point of you falling off the map XD
