I too came to this conclusion, but i found enjoyment in creating maps and taking pics and showing them off, even if they didnt get played. I never could draw well, or paint, etc... so this was my art, it was something i could control and create, and be my own worst critic, and when i was stumped, You guys always had ideas and interesting ways around a problem, it was/is great having friends like you, thanks for everything.

So I've been trying to rip vehicle models from APB Reloaded to inject them into halo, but ninja ripper keeps exporting them in weird groups, and punk buster keeps kicking me for loading 2 D3D instances. I've tried using 3DRipperDX but it does not launch the game, it says it's an invalid DirectX app. Reloaded also encrypts their newer models so I can't just open the pack file.

I went surf fishing today and didn't put on enough sun block like an idiot. My legs feel like they are roasting on an open fire. On top of that the clams I ate didn't settle right, so I can't really eat, and I nearly passed out from not eating. I smell like chum but it's too painful to take a shower atm.

On the bright site my cousin caught a nice size dogfish, and I managed to get a banana to stay down.

One of my first friends in life and one of my best friends to this day passed away today. She would be considered a sister. It's a sad one today.

Thanks Jackson, I genuinely appreciate your thoughts. Much love yall. This week is fucking rotten 'cause I have two finals next week also. This forum really helps me get my mind off the reality--whether that's a good thing or not, Im not sure--but I feel it has been balancing my stress levels. For that I am grateful.

I spawned 200 fucking trees AGAIN...uploaded it and everything worked perfectly. I then went back to the tag and now everything was reverted back to its normal spawn. GAWD DAMMIT.

Entity 2.1.14 seems to be the most stable to me. Entity 2.1.15 is good for meta injection and SCNR duplication.

So Im really eager to play Halo 1 on the Xbox One. This game should be the end all for the best of the Halo gaming series, and I've been wanting to play Halo 1 on XBL ever since XBL came out. XBC system link lag is unbearable. Im looking to get the hardware to play Halo MCC and I realized I need a new monitor (with hdmi), an Xbox One, and Halo MCC. That's like $500 of hardware minimum. FML. *scavenging craigslist for used hardware*

If yall know a place for an inexpensive monitor and good, used xbox one, inform me. Im all ears.

Classes start today. I will be off and on around here for a month or so. Im going to work hard at getting my map released. It needs one final adjustment, but it is a very time consuming adjustment. :x

Ordered 3 items on Amazon and waited a week for arrival.

1 item was an egregiously wrong item. (they sent a dreamcast cable instead of an Xbox cable)
1 item was broken.
1 item was a mildly wrong item. (sent a single link DVI cable instead of dual link)

Going to have to return all of items now and wait another week. :evil:

For fuck sake American online sellers. Get your shit straight. If I would have ordered this from China, I probably would have received the proper items.

And you would have received them by the time you're 80!

I mean I understand why you're mad but mistakes happen all the time, you just got bad luck x3 :P

Is that last adjustment for your gladiator-style map? It was looking good.

I honestly havent had time to do any edits over the last two weeks. School is draining all my free time. I think I may have to release a beta version with the vehicle not perfected. I know others are busy, but I would be up for someone else finishing it if they wanted to. I contemplated releasing it yesterday, but I didnt even have time to write up the post.

Guess what Click, I received the replacement cable from the company that messed up my first delivery and IT WAS THE WRONG ONE AGAIN.

My latptop's battery is fried I believe. My ac adapter burned out today while I had it plugged into my laptop. I had to buy a new one but when I have the ac adapter plugged into the computer the plug-end gets very hot (the plastic/rubber almost melts) and when I take the battery out and run the laptop off ac alone the heat of the plug is much reduced (it's warm but not hot). Since I will need to replace the battery it seems I am going to try to get a 9 cell version instead of the 6 cell version I had/have

Well I hope it all works out. I personally hate laptops, but I can see why they're good to have ready for use.
