I'm sure it would be alright to do this for PC, but not for trial. If everyone created CE maps that could be converted to trial, what's the point of getting PC? Buying PC to get CE? It's a good idea to experiment with, but not release.

Hi, I play halo demo almost everyday on a mac computer. It is quite unfortunate, though, that Bungie no longer sells Halo for the Mac. I know that converting CE maps to the demo is illegal but I would like someone to send me a link where I can just download the maps straight to my computer. Each one including Hang 'Em, Sidewinder, etc. If it's not legal here, you can email me a link at thoraxe94@yahoo.com. Please send me something.

you're asking someone to DO something illegal...
modding = illegal: EULA violation- widely accepted however
ripping = illegal: theft- just about every site is against it

Guess which one Bungie/Microsoft would chase down?

if Bungie really cared that much do you seriously think that this site would still be up?

Maw to demo is using the maw bsp from full. So it's like PC->CE->Demo. Which is still PC->Demo = not a good idea.

well there is a loop whole if you can find it :P you provided it : harbinger is the look whole you convert the bsp from CE and say u didnt know it was inported from PC :P

I have no idea what your talking about because I don't make mods nor am I a modder. So if anyone can do it for me, I won't tell. lol

I wouldn't consider it a loop hole since you have to have the full version of HPC to convert using harbinger. So any amount of ripping from converted maps is the same as ripping tags from full. If it's only custom content tags, then why bother converting? Short and simple if a CE map is playing on demo it's using full tags somewhere.

You knew the maw used full content since you have full. And most demo users know which maps are for full and which aren't. So don't be talking about it.
Halomods Rules and Regulations wrote:No discussion or posting of content that has been copyrighted (warez). This includes map files from halo (excluding rebuilt or CE maps). This includes the new maps for Halo 2.
'nuff said. Ripping bad. No matter the form.

And no, we will not send you the full version maps. It's illegal and against halomods rules.
