Now what other maps / gametypes do you want or want me to change in the first 2.

Also if someone has a gametype editor or know's how to edit the blam.lst please let me know because I'd love to make more gametypes without the pistol and maybe have a shotty sniper gametype or some other creative stuff. So please let me know. Also I want to be able to choose starting weapons like a sniper and plasma rifle or some other stuff. So if you know of a gametype editor or can edit blam.lst teach me. please.

I say take off Blood Islands and Valkyrie RC2. I really didn't find those maps that fun when I played. Everything else seems pretty good though.

Nice idea, but you should also look into some small maps too, seeing as half of the time there's never a full list of players.

I suggest these:
Delta Ruined
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=3167
Snowcast
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=4162

Also, post the links to the maps so it makes it easier for people to get the maps.

Please take nightcamp off :S And make a maplist of smaller maps like ThePlague said.

Umm...no. Terrible map is terrible. It looks as if it wasn't even finished. Craptastic edges everywhere and like 1/4th of the map has shit uvw's.

Uhhh, no they weren't, except for the ledge of the cliff. Don't talk about things you don't know, because I actually fixed the entire lighting and looked 100% better.

But thats offtopic.

Anyways looks like a good mapcycle is coming back. Id suggest this map,
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=1794
And this one
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=4292

Less night camp, more helix canyon.
Also PORTENT!!

I said nothing about lighting, and there were parts next to the ledges, the bases, and on some parts that had failure uvw's. Bad smoothing was a must in places also. I could make a box map with better game-play than perils.

portent and I'll start playing CE again :)

What gametypes is this server going to mostly focus on?

I was never even saying that Peril had good gameplay in the first place, and half of the errors (Besides the shitty uvws) were caused by the poor lighting.

hurr...I mean more along the lines of CTF/Slayer/Oddball/KOTH/etc.

Yeah I forgot about portent, that's a guarantee so don't worry portent will be on.
What do you guys think about teletubbies? should that map be in? it's very fun with all shotty slayer.

Quote:

---

Portent
Snowtorn Cove
cmt fragment v2
delta ruined
cliffrun
no remorse
Teletubbies
Midship
Insomnia
sneak

Now help me on gametypes which gametypes are good for which map.

**Sorry for the double post but i felt is was necessary.

Oh hell yes, Illegal's finest work :awesome:

Also mystic mbmb?

I had mystic on my last server and when I was checking the gametracker stats it said mystic was the least played. so I don't know.

huh? teletubbies?

Tried this exact same thing, and I was even using a paid server. You're going to get next to no activity on a server with ALL custom maps.

Good luck though!

Yeah, my last attempt lasted for what a month then it got inactive,
Freelancer makes a good point.

So what if I had a server of Portent, No_remorse, teletubbies, cmt fragment v2, blood gulch, sidewinder, wizard, danger canyon and infinity.

problem with any custom map server, is most players could give a shit less to even have any custom maps..
Even myself, I can't say I have many custom maps, cause the likelyhood of even 4 players being online, WITH the map, AND having a server running it, is almost impossible, unless I have a massive maps folder filled with crap loads of maps..

Kinda why I gave up on the whole map creating process in general XD

Yoyorast still gets some hits...

Yea but there's at least three Yoyorast_Island 24/7 servers usually. If only someone could build some kind of app that auto downloaded maps that players didn't have... God, Halo CE would be win. I'm sure that it would be possible, some kind of 3rd party application like Xfire that can throw a GUI over the Halo UI. When you try to join a server and get an invalid map file error, the app could pop up and ask you if you want to download it. If the server is using the server side part of the app the client app could grab the IP address of the server and download the map from the servers map folder.

I know next to nothing about coding, but I assume this would be incredibly hard.

But that would involve restarting halo to make it register the new maps (read: too long, didn't DL).

Prime.
Excavation.
Hydration.

My favorite maps.

Some servers like TG's are custom maps 24/7 and they're quite popular. Start with well known custom maps and then remove some and add a good custom map that not everyone has. But then people know it's worth downloading, even your server runs it. I think this is the way how 2MA servers work.

Pen Island?

Oddly pen island doesn't look so bad.

http://forum.halomaps.org/index.cfm?...&topicID=20868
That made by zsdg06 lets players download the map if they don't have it. But that's trhough xfire. and all it does it open a browser and give them the search result of hte map at halomaps.org

Boats don't work, and without those the maps are useless. The layouts of the tunnels and the islands are completely fucked.

Jump in a boat and you hit the skybox. Wish it worked :<

I distinctly remember that map working just fine... I only played it ALONG time ago when it was first released though...

If you want a water based map, do hydrolysis on team slayer/ctf.

Yeah I was thinking about hydrolysis but then people were like omg we want small maps not uber big ones...

Then don't compete and put one up.

Just in case his server is full.

There's also the beta clan's zombie server... I don't think we need another one.

Oh, I didn't know there was another one.

Here's a pic of today's game of Team Oddball on Prisoner
It was a tough yet fun game, I encourage you all the come join the server.
custom Maps will be on every other day, so it will switch off, custom regular custom regular.
