The first map is Yoyorast Island by Yoyorast

I have been wanting these to be converted for a long, long time.

So when do we get to learn how to convert maps?

yeah, it'd be polite to post it everywhere where sword isn't a member, or atleast isn't an active one(meaning 0 posts)

Or, and here's a thought, ask for his permission.

Question for sword
is this a problem?

also why is it we arn't telling everyone how to do this yet? i mean seriously, this is ridiculous.

please explain to me why i am not going to write a tutorial on how to do this, also w/ the duel sp rebuild. i thought that modding was supposed to be fun, but its just little secretive cliques around the community, and with respect to bobindashadows for getting this all started, FU** bob's wishes, its been a long time coming.

love, R0US

Bob says he doesn't care if the method is released. Seriously, I talked to him on AIM.

If you want to argue about the state of the Mac Halo modding community, make a topic about it at HaloDev's Offtopic section. I'd be more inclined to adding my opinion there.

Rous, I've never said that we shouldn't release how to do it. Its incredibly easy. I also just think that kids should know a bit more about modding before they can do this, otherwise there will probably be a huge rush of crappy CE converts that either don't really work or are made from useless maps.

Though, on the other hand, I automated the add tags from list function so that its extremely easy to convert a map. Overall it might take 3 min to convert a map now. The only drawback is that HMT mac doesn't batch extract the CE maps correctly and I'm still hammering out a few problems with Eschaton batch extraction.

Btw, I'll be hosting a dedicated Yoyorast Island and Portent server for a few days. I really love these maps. The server will go up in a few min.

If the server gets popular then I'll start hosting the other converted maps as well. Might have to change what converts go to what maps first so that you can just change up all your maps.

sword is right, do we want noobs to convert maps that suck just becasue they sound kool?

One more post about it and this gets a lock.

I've had a server up for a while now and it seems to be running well. The name is CE Maps and it is running these two released maps as well as a few of Bob's converts.

The maps that its rotating through are the following:

1. Yoyorast Island (sidewinder)
2. Portent (timberland)
3. Mystic (bloodgulch)
4. Immure (boardingaction)
5. corrupted (dangercanyon)

So come join!

The server name is CE Maps

You can also direct IP join with the IP: 24.186.175.223:2302
