HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

To be honest, I don't know where to start. I want to add new "pieces" to a level, walls and ground, complete with collisions and skins. I'll probably also want to steal things from other levels and add them into the map.

For adding original things, I have absolutely no idea where to start, so if someone could give me a rough brief description of what I need to do, I can search for tutorials to teach me how to do those steps.

For stealing things from other level, I followed someone's tut for adding the zanzibar wheel to other levels. I got to the point where I built it into the map and added the meta to the map. From there, I know I have to do something with netgame equipment or whatever, but I don't know exactly what to do, and I don't know how to physically add the zanzibar wheel to the actual map so that I can move it where I want it.

If someone could help me I would be most appreciative

Are you saying you want to inject a custom BSP?

I don't know...let's say I'm modding lockout (I am) and that I want to add a huge platform in the empty corner of BR tower and the gravlift (I might). How would I go about doing something like that?

EDIT: Long story short, I figured out moving objects from map to map...I'm still wondering how to add fresh objects to a map. Is it possible? I think that it must be.

not yet

Well you can add large MACHs, but thats as close as you are gonna be.

This isn't exactly adding fresh "things" to a map but after you put things in your map from other maps...you can clone chunks to add extra to the map...if that's what you kind of mean.
