As posted in the other topic, why have these selfish souls not released this?

I don't understand exactly what that means.
I would assume you are not a halomodder.

I'm not a modder and I still know what it means. Although since I'm trying to make a custom map in Halo 2, I technically could be considered a modder. But I prefer to be called a glitcher since I enjoy glitches in Halo rather than mods.

You are a map maker none the less. You making any progress on the map? If you need help I'm always at the monstrmoose.com site. just post in the map making section once you register and put a help thread etc etc. making a map is really simple, its just that those who freaking ported the darn game and made a map editor for it, freaking GUTTED the editor and if you look at the official video for the editor, you will see that like half the things in the video are non-existent in the editor given to us via the h2v disk.....

I believe everyone knows that, and if this editor was released, then Halo 1 Custom Edition will die.

Why would they remove all those things out of the map editor? Wasn't Halo 2 Vista supposed to set an example for all future Games For Windows Live games? Halo 2 Vista was supposed to take full advantage of Games For Windows Live. It even included Tray and Play. I don't see why they would've removed all that stuff from the map editor. Halo 2 Vista had so much potential.

This is the average H2 Fanboy.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

Probably to make it simpler for n00bs, except a complex map editor would not be for n00bs anyway.

After all, one of the selling points of h2v was a map editor, according to the box.

Yeah... There's nothing simple about the map editor, fully featured or not.

I'm almost done my very first map by the way. Just have a few more things to fix in 3DS before I export it to the map editor.

You know, the Halo 2 Vista trailer made the map editor look so simple. Based on the trailer, it seems like you could build a whole new map with only a few clicks...

Yeah, we were promised a map editor better than HEK and maybe HEK+, but then they gutted it, and ripped away all campaign and most multiplayer assets.

You can hardly compile custom, I have proof that H2V is built to refuse certain custom tags, so my way around that was adding pre-built slots into the mainmenu.map

It worked, Kills Alone made custom vehi tags (not complete), if H2V was built to refuse adding custom map list support for maps with these custom tags, then you can see how selfish Microsoft is.
(someone should sue them and Bungie for lying)

I just wish I had H2V at the beginning. ='(

List of tags in custom maps which are refused and never added in H2V's custom map list
Weapons (added ones that is)
Vehicles
Biped
Characters (AI characters)
...I can't think of more, and that's because I will never become a professional Halo modder, or programmer.

Also we have a limit of 50 custom maps probably defined by the .exe, the mainmenu.map also has 50 slots, but modders can make this higher >1000 to any number they want, but as of yet there's no program to do this.

I just wish there was someone to use that Headhunter or Race gametype in Halo 2 Vista. It would be an awesome discovery! Playing Headhunter before Halo: Reach comes out.

lol, I wish Bungie never took the coding out of H2X, because then HiredGoons would have left it in too. xD

Headhunter was also taken out in Halo 3, and involved collecting "heads"...
