Being that I'm playing Halo 2 for the first time, and still not familiar with all the new gametypes and how they work, I'll offer my opinion on the maps released yesterday for what its worth.

Beach Battle:

A very well thought out medium sized map with bases on each side. From your base there are 2 routes. You can choose to take the low ground which will offer you a pretty straight forward fight with some intense battles along the beach, or you can take the terrain which offers some neat areas for sniping and ambushing. There is one portal in each base which when taken dumps you right out into the middle of the map. Both base portals will take you out into the same spot, so it's crucial you watch for someone trying to ambush you when you go through. The graphics and textures were nice but nothing I haven't seen before.

Overall I can see this map offering people alot of fun for many various gametypes well into the future.

Earth City:

A small size map with bases located in opposite corners of the map. We played some CTF, and slayer on this map. Both games were very fast, and offered some intense close combat. This map didn't contain multi levels. It was all a one level fight which offered corridors on the sides, and a street style located down the center with a ton of debri. I thought the graphic and textures looked pretty cool.

Overall another good map that, I can see many people using in the future that will offer them many hours of fun, and enjoyment.

After spending a good hour in Nitro's server yesterday playing these maps, I do remember him saying he has made "A bunch of different maps". I asked him if he planned on releasing more in the future, and he said yes. So for those of us that have the game already, keep an eye out for the Nitro Custom Server.

Another odd thing I noticed is, I was getting significantly better FPS while playing his maps, as compared to playing the default maps the game offers. When I run the games maps I get anywhere between 50-80 FPS. On his maps I was consistently over 100 FPS at high settings. Now I don't know jack about modding, so maybe one of you who does can explain why that was the case.

Thanks again Nitro for giving some of us the opportunity to see what this game offers. I will keep a close eye out for your new releases, as I have marked your server in my favorites.

Ughh.. I was sitting there forever trying to join the server when there was a lobby so I could download a custom and play. I finally get in. And... my computer shuts down.

I knew my new dual core and pci-e vid card was too much for my old power supply. Oh well getting a new one this weekend be back on before you know it.


On a more related note. They should allow map downloading from http like cod2. I'm sure it wont happen, but it makes downloads a breeze and you can get them anytime without taking away bandwidth from the server.

Any custom map packages you make should end up in your documents and settings folder, so far as I know there's no reason you couldn't zip up the map and upload it somewhere.

NitrousOxide
May 25th, 2007, 10:58 AM
Thank you guys so much for the kind thoughts.

These are only two of a bajillion maps I've made over here at Hired Gun. Some of those maps I'll probably get clearance to release, some of which will never leave these card-key-protected doors. These two are just simple example maps I've made to basically demostrate the ease of the editting kit. Both of these maps were developed in almost no time at all. It took me about a day (9-5 work day) to get each map to a playable, testable, decently polished state. Then, I took about the rest of the week to fine tune, adjust based on feedback and test, test, test. All in all, point is that these maps took very little time to develop, using basic knowledge from the Halo CE HEK and a firm passion for map making.

Believe me when I tell you, ANYONE can do this. It's by far the easiest custom map pipeline I've ever dealt with for any game, including Half-Life and UT.




I'm glad you guys like what you see. I apologize if the layouts aren't perfect and weapons might be unbalanced, and yes I know, the maps are relatively simple, but the point of them was to simply show off how rediculously easy this stuff is to do. Like I said, both maps took me less than a few days a piece to complete polish off.


The Nitrous Customs server will be up for a while, but not forever so enjoy it while you can!!

Yeah but it would be sweet if the server has a line to redirect the map download to a http site. Ofcourse cod2 has alot more than maps to download from servers.

Could someone give me a yes or no answer on this (based on what we know at this time), Can we use out own textures like we did for CE (make the map in 3DS, then apply a texture over it)?

As I'm working on touching up CamTrackArena for Halo 2 Vista.

:p

All in all, if you could make maps with H1EK, you can make them in H2EK. It just requires relearning the shaders.

Nitrous, I have a question. (I know I haven't spoken to you in a long time for past problems, over 2 years now, but that's gone.) When loading up h2Sapien, i've checked and refreshed the debug file. The errors that appear seem to slow down the map loading process, and it takes forever to load up a map. It maybe my PC, but, apparently to some people I have talked to, it's the same deal. It's loading from shared.map, but, is there anyway to bypass these errors?

In H1, I'd edit a tag, and quickly load up Sapien to see the difference. It doesn't seem too possible anymore.

Most map makers do. (In the Halo Community). If not, GMax can help. If you are a Maya user, it only requires a .obj export and import into 3ds.

Then, I took about the rest of the week to fine tune, adjust based on feedback and test, test, test. All in all, point is that these maps took very little time to develop, using basic knowledge from the Halo CE HEK and a firm passion for map making.

Believe me when I tell you, ANYONE can do this. It's by far the easiest custom map pipeline I've ever dealt with for any game, including Half-Life and UT.




I'm glad you guys like what you see. I apologize if the layouts aren't perfect and weapons might be unbalanced, and yes I know, the maps are relatively simple, but the point of them was to simply show off how rediculously easy this stuff is to do. Like I said, both maps took me less than a few days a piece to complete polish off.


The Nitrous Customs server will be up for a while, but not forever so enjoy it while you can!!

Man :( I need a tutorial, I couldn't get this stuff done in a year...

Lightning....not to be rude but please read the topic....I ALREADY said that I checked there...NO SUCH DIRECTORY!!!!!:lol:Not sure if its created when you install the editor since I did it immediately.

However, you *do* need to put your custom maps in your Vista-user's my documents folder, under the subdirectory "Halo 2", under its subdirectory "Maps"

So: <User>\Documents\Halo 2\Maps

If it doesn't exist, not sure what to say... it should be there. Putting it in any other maps directory doesn't work... thats the only one.

Yea we have Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo 2\Maps too... that's for BUNGIE maps.

In your My Documents folder (assuming you installed Halo 2 Vista in the Digikid username), create a new folder called Halo 2, and in that folder create a maps folder. Put the maps in that folder. Like such.

The map2 file should be called map -- I just changed the filename on some misc. test I did with CMT.

Maps in this directory are picked up by Halo 2 Vista.

but that is missing the point...I want to know where the maps that were downloaded from Nitros server....I want to know where they went.

If you look at my pictures....one is of my Documents folder...and one is of my Progrma files folder........

I FINALLY found it....it is NOT in the Halo 2 folder....because there is no folder called that if you do not install the HEK.

It is in the MY GAMES/Halo 2 folder.
