Ok I've been making maps with HCE for about a year now and I'm pretty confident with it. But, I am creatively exhausted (being an uncreative person) and really need some ideas for maps. I can script it to give you credit too.

So if anyone has any ideas for me, post them and the name you want credit given too. You can even send me some custom bitmaps if you want.

Maybe a big canyon the size of blood gulch that has one ramp in the back that leads to the middle, an underground tunnel, if you give me your Xfire(If you have one),I can help you more.

If you could do a remake of Halo 2's lockout I would be very pleased. But if your not into remakes I would enjoy tunnel map, like the ones in level two on the Halo campaign. Big and chrome, that'd be sweet.

I agree, a really pro version of Lockout for HCE would be sweet.

I say an asteriod with a big tower in the center, has a few snipers, no pistols, and the other base side on the side, below the surface of the asteroid.

Is it ok if I can help with the map? (Textures, BSP, etc.)

yeah guys thanks for the ideas any help at all is appreciated. i have tried to do space maps before but i couldn't really get the asteriod texture to actually look decent.

and a lockout remake would be kinda fun.

and i could try do a bloodgulch remake with tunnels, kind of like the ones on containment.

Wouldn't an asteriod texture be a rock texture? Maybe the ones from the begining of TaR

I tried exporting the blood gulch bsp so i could do a remake and it won't let me...it always says i'm missing shaders or they're corrupted. i have exported bloodgulch with HEK+ (the WHOLE map) and I tried using Jahrain's exporter and Firescyth's as well...so i think i'll have to scrap the bloodgulch remake idea.

i still haven't tried anything for a lockout remake though. :\

Check this out i found it on halomaps. I didn't download it b/c i don't feel like wasting my time, but if someone already remade it then i don't think i should do the same thing..

http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=3586

I think i'l do a tunnel level from Assault on the Control Room...

That makes me angry. I wonder how many people searched for lockout at Halomaps and couldn't find it because the name was NIGHT lockout.

Yeah they should have at least kept the name lockout at the beginning and called "remake" or something.

And I should have the tunnel level done within the week. I took the part of b40 where underground there are two large bridges, but one has been destroyed and there is only one bridge left. Its pretty sweet.

A space battle with a UNSC and Covenant frigate that ypu can go inside and there's a hangar. Maybe make the frigates drivable and with a cannon.

The existing versions of lockout suck, they don't even work right for CTF. You could make a better one!

lol the textures suck balls too :\ and i could probably find a grav lift somewhere for the blue thingie.

I did pretty much finish the tunnel level...but if im gonna release it i want to at least put portals on it. I tried doing it but it didn't work so if someone knows how to do them could i send you the .max file and have you put them in for me?
