Every time I make a map, whether it's an indoor or outside map, it is always very dark. Not to the point where you can't see at all, but to the point where you have to squint at times to see. When I type in Radiosity in Tool, I type tool lightmaps levels/mapname/mapname mapname 0 0.99 I don't know i...

I checked around for at least 20 minutes, but I couldn't find anything that was really clear. If you could link it, I'd appreciate it.

So would I type in the materials box, for the name, "glass%" (without the quotations of course)? That would make a 2-sided piece of glass?

I want to make a base with glass windows that will shatter when shot. From what I can tell from previous maps, I make a plane and put it in the position I need, and then attach it to the map to make it all one thing. I figured there is some special texture name I need to give it in order for the pla...

ive done a few things with making items float in midair, testing the abilities of everything. ive only done this with the fusion cores so there are bombs dropping onto the field every 10 seconds (incredibly fun, btw), but all you have to do is stack 2 or 3 big boxes on top of each other, careful not...

i use tool to make my radiosity lightmaps, and it works sucessfully, but the maps are always too dark... what numbers am i supposed to type in for the command? i normally do it in this order "tool lightmaps levels\mapname\mapname 0 0 0.9" i figure one of the numbers im putting in is making...

im working on a WoW(world of warcraft for those who dont know) based halo map, and i wanted to get a few opinions on it, and if you would play it. let me know some of your thoughts.

ah, that was it, i misunderstood the readme about the open listener button, but i got it working again. havent been makin halo maps for a while, had to rejog my memory

I made my map in GMax because 3ds max is a little pricy, and once i finished it with all the textures and whatnot, i attached the map to frame, and used chimp to export. i followed the readme that came with chimp, but when i went to save the actual JMS file, i got an error that said this MAXScript R...

This is just amazing..the attention to detail is what is going to make this map playable over, and over... cant wait till its done. you gonna put in any easter eggs for us to try and find?

thats a wierd glitch, but its fixed now, thank you.

i know that this isnt the right place to post this if im having trouble logging on to another forum, but i had to post here, because as many times as ive tried, i cant log on to my halomods.com/forums account. I am COMPLETELY positive i am putting in both the right user name and password because i c...

that was easy. TY!

is there an update or somethin that makes it so that you can see the highlite when you pick a face in gmax in the perspective in gmax? it was so convenient how they did that in 3ds max, but not in gmax... is there sumthin i can do to make it so the faces highlite in perspective in gmax throo prefere...

this is just the first map that didnt have gamestopping errors. i was so happy that i finally made a map work after 2 months, that i had to post my happiness with you all besides, as i said before im makin more, and theyre gonna be a lot bigger.

ya, i fixed it. srry bout that.

oh, and i figured out the MC size through trial and error with textures, etc. thanx anyway.

actually, im having that same problem, after i finished everything, the 3 play buttons were grayed out, and there were 0 bytes of music, and im pretty sure i followed the tut to the letter.

the teleporter looked really cool, it was very clever! the whole map looked very good, but you should make it so you can activate the bridge and make your enemy fall to the bottom of the map when they're charging!

this isnt my first map ive made, but i kept gettin errors here or there about somethin so i started makin tiny maps until i got all of the errors fixed. this was the first map i made that didnt have game stopping errors, so here it is. now that i got everything all worked out, ill be makin more maps...

well, thank you for helping me with that problem, and i didnt expect everyone to like it. i appreciate any criticism about it, but try to keep it respectful. (not saying that urs wasnt respectful llama_juice, i just felt i needed to post this.)
