The plug-in in the wall should do very nicely with a fork

halo ce is no way compatible with halo xbox. no way no how. 2 completely different file stuctures. you could learn alot from it that would helo in xbox halo modding but NO you cant use it to make halo levels for xbox

and just for the record Timmmae there is NO MODELING PROGRAM included with halo ce or The HEK so how would you use it to make levels? you use 3dsmax or gmax to make the levels and use the hek to convert and populate the levels and halo CE to play them
seriously people do some research
prove me wrong

and wbagam if you seriously have a masters degree in game programming then i  think youd possess the mental capacity to find out the answers to such simple questions with out making lame threads like this.

if you still want to make levels you can but youll be making them for halo ce and  you should but there is no way whatsoever that youll be making levels for the xbox. you can  make models of weeapons and scenery and use pokecancers new model injector for halo xbox.

IM not trying be a dick or a flamer in any way i just get so agitated when i see misinformation like this being spread

PLEASE explore these links and read and you will learn very quickly what i have said is true.

huh.gif

because unless you have serious knowledge on the program you will be bit stuck.

I've worked with 3DS MAX on and off for over 4 Years, and I'm still not competent enough to design a level using the program.

QUOTE (Timmmae @ May 26 2004, 08:02 PM)
The Pen is mightier is wrong, you can make maps for Xbox Halo. You just cant use 3DS to make it. Use HaloCE and Hek.

i don't understand.... you ONLY have 5 posts... but yet your rank is an "X-S Enthusiast", and u'r also considered a "member" when it should be "Young Member" (until u get to 50 posts)....... maybe your a friend of a moderator...... hmm.... no... no... u'r waaaaaaaaaaay too stupid to be a friend of a mod... maybe u'r a 1337 hax0r..... eh.... NO.... u'r DEFINITELY too stupid for that..... wTf? and also... HEK IS NOT USED AT ALL in MAKING Halo maps.... it is just used to PLACE object, spawns, flags, etc... kinda like sparkedit..... (u DO know what that is... right Timmmae)

anywayz..... back to the topic at hand... do yourself a favor.... and spend ANOTHER $50 bucks (or $40 at some places), and pickup a copy of HaloPC, then download HaloCE, and the HEK.... THEN you CAN make u'r own levels for Halo smile.gif, and if u have a masters in programming, maybe u can dissassemble the HEK, and make it work for Halo Xbox tongue.gif

Yes I have been working with 3Ds Max for quite some time and It is a pain in the arse to learn if you have know training from colleges and that sort of thing.  I Have been working with descreet products for roughly 5 years and I still dont know a large amount of what the program can do and is capable of doing.
I just got the money to buy it at my house I have it at my studio but not at my house untill last friday!!!
I guess I am going to have to buy Halo Pc to make my own levels!!
Thanx u guys
