How do I Make Halo CE maps [url]http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?nid=406[/url] excerpt: =============== The HEK The Halo Editing Kit consists of several programs: (from the HEK tutorial) Blitzkrieg (blitzkrieg.dle) Blitzkrieg is the exporter plug-in for 3D Studio Max. This plug-in exports the model data (vertices, materials, smoothing group information, animations, etc...) from 3DS Max to the file formats (.jms, .jmp, .jma, .jmm, .jmt) used by tool.exe to compile a data tag that can be used by Halo. Tool (tool.exe) Tool is a multipurpose command line program that compiles and converts data that has been exported from other sources such as 3D Studio Max. The data files that are created are referred to as "tags". Running "tool.exe" by itself with no command line parameters will display a complete list of the available command line parameters and appropriate variables and variable formats. Guerilla (guerilla.exe) Guerilla has a graphical interface that is used to edit the properties and resource references in the Halo data “tags”. Sapien (sapien.exe) Sapien is used to edit or modify various aspects of a level that has already been compiled using Tool. Sapien has a graphical interface that contains a 3D window that renders the game including the level bsp, models, and vehicles as well as playing sounds and running physics. Sapien is used for many purposes, including the population of characters, weapons, items, scenery objects, and game play and mission objectives It is highly recommended that you read the HEK tutorial that comes with the HEK installation BEFORE you start trying to edit or create maps. ======== [b]Programs[/b] Halo Custom Edition Game - required [url]http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?pg=3&fid=410[/url] Halo Custom Edition V1.08.616 Patch update - required [url]http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=3945[/url] Halo Custom Edition (CE) Editing Kit - optional [url]http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?pg=3&fid=411[/url] Halo Editing Kit Plus as of 12-17-06 - (HEK+) - optional [url]http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=2289[/url] [b]Making/Modifying Halo CE Maps[/b] How do I Make Halo CE maps [url]http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?nid=406[/url] How to Modify Halo CE Maps [url]http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?nid=412[/url] The Halo CE HEK (Halo Editing Kit) Tutorial [url]http://hce.halomaps.org/hek/[/url] Section: Tutorials [url]http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?pg=1&sid=23[/url] Halo Maps Forum [url]http://forum.halomaps.org[/url]

OS, your operating system. I'm not sure if it works on Vista, even though its backwards compatible.

OS file?

First, what OS are you trying to use? Here's a download for HEK, [url]http://halo2.filefront.com/file/Halo_Editing_Kit;25780[/url]. It's for Halo PC, (if your going to use it with HCE try HEK Plus). There are three major programs in the kit, Blitzkrieg, which is used to convert maps from the modeling program to .jre format, Gorilla, which is a tag editor, and another program used to manipulate objects inside the map. There is also a with the tutorial, which is the first thing you need to read. You still need a modeling program like 3DS Max. There is a free version called Gmax, but it was discontinued. You can still get it [url=http://halo2.filefront.com/file/Halo_Editing_Kit;25780]here[/url] but you have to register (free). Otherwise its in [url=http://halo2.filefront.com/file/HMS_With_All_Applications;66684]this[/url] with some other good tools, but the file is pretty big. After you get everything together, play around with it (going along with the tutorial) before you actually try to make something. [Edited on 01.20.2009 1:15 PM PST]
