Do you have to buy 3ds Max to use the editing kit?

No. You can use Gmax.

Yeah, and unless you have $4,000 dollars it is best that way.

Head on over to halomaps.org or H2vista.net. They can help you with learning all the steps to create a map or what ever. And there you can find many tutorials that will guide you.

There are "Student Licenses" available for 3D Studio Max and the price ranges from $130 to $200 (I forget the exact price, all I remember is that someone in my game design class bought it.)

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

In other words, way too young to play Halo, and too young to join this site. :/

Thinking of something witty to write here since 2004...

Well on the bright side you can buy a student edition for quite a lot cheaper.

No, those are licensed out by colleges and universities.

You can't just 'get one'.

If you are a student and meet the qualifications, then, yes, you can get a license with a discount.

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Just use GMAX for starting out. You won't be able to do anything complicated anyways until you have made several box maps.

Wut a bunch of -blams-. You people are so stupid. 12 year olds can play Halo. Jesus it's not like I'm going to kill someone.

No one said a 12 year old can't play Halo. Just that a 12 year old SHOULDN'T play Halo. For the same reason a 12 year old shouldn't be allowed into an R rated movie.

I think it's funny that you would call someone stupid when you can't even spell Sergeant correctly. Not that I can blame you, it is a rather ambiguous word. Not trying to cut you down or anything, just pointing out that maybe you should stop and think about what you're going to start before you hit that submit button.

And before you make some half-baked, asinine comeback you should know that I'm almost twice your age, with the education and experience to back up my big words.

Why? Because of ESRB? If that's the reason you really need a wake up call.
