Dragon's B-Day Map Pack.
~~~~~~~~~~Dragon's B-Day Map Pack Readme~~~~~~~
-All maps were created by Ultimate_Dragon
----------------Introduction
Well today the 25th of October is my Birthday and to celebrate
me finally turning 16 (O.o yes i kno......). So anyways, I threw together 4
new maps for all to enjoy. Look below for more details. :)
Oh btw, please note that this file was originally posted on www.halo2files.com,,
as all my maps have been.
---------------Details
There are 4 maps in this pack: Coldgulch, HC-Hanger, Bury em' low, and Temple_assualt. Note that in all maps
(excluding Bury em' low), the AI will spawn forever, so dont even try to permanently kill them. Also note
that all the maps have the elite model as a biped, with armor that now will confrom to colors
other than black. (So if u wanna be pink, be pink :P)
~Coldgulch is basically blood gulch with snowy textures, real snow weather, and my first attempt at
AI in the middle of the map. All weapons have been plasmafied + I threw in a nuke snipa to help clear the AI out
for a bit.
~Bury em' Low is just a Hang 'em high varient that features some h2 weapons, some of my own weapons, and
a biped of an elite. Please take note that the light blue energy sword is a bit buggy in 1st person when firing.
~Temple_Assault is taken directly from Attack on the Control Room. The map consists of the "temple" that
leads up to the control room. I did throw a lot of secrets in this map, tho only 1 of the weapons is new. Also
note that the front of the temple is a constant flood vs covvie battleground. Oh btw, note that sometimes that in loading
this map, the AI dont load right causing a major FPS lag. To fix this, merely begin a new game on this same map.
~~~HC-Hanger
-This is perhaps my best work to date. It is the hanger taken from a Covenant Cruiser called
"Honor and Compromise". The story behind this map is that after the T&R was taken by the flood,
the covenant greatly increased security on all thier ships. As a result, the covvie's new policy is shoot
first ask later. Thus, the map is FILLED with AI.But these arent normal AI. These AI roam the map rather than
stay in one designated area. The bases are not too far from the farthest ive seen my AI roam, so its not
that common for a grunt to wander into a base. This map is best played with 6-10 playes, that way you and your team
can fight through the AI to get the flag/ball/hill and w/e else. I threw in some new weapons as well as 1secret room.
Oh btw, beware the pink elite, hes got a nice magnum.
---------------------Installation
Place all the maps into ur CE maps folder. If that doesnt work,
try setting each map using HMS in CE mode.

Also, if you see a guy named {FF} Dragon joining ur game in either CE or regular PC,
note thats ME.
Please note as well that I would appreciate comments & suggestions
on my maps as it helps me to create even better ones. Also, please
email me if you plan on adding me to MSN messenger w/ a reason b/c my buddy
list is getting quite large so i have to start screening u ppl (-^.^-). Other than that, Id like
to get a map team together. All thats required to join is either skill in 3ds Max/Gmax, Creation of Tags/models,
and/or some1 who can supply me donuts at 9pm eastern on a sunday. (If u want the donut job...post under this file
for those of u at h2files.)
----Some credit is to go to SRG and Aztec for creating an awsome AI tutorial
that allowed me to finally get the AI working right in my maps. Also, If you see
a tag/weap/vehi in any of these maps that look like urs, chances are that they are. Ive just got so many
tags and stuff that i cant keep track of who's tag is whos.
******************************************A final word(s)
B4 i go, id like to announce that i will be creating a GMAX Text tutorial
in creating maps, a new map based on the prisons on the H&C, and more.
Expect these about 4-5 weeks from now as im takin a 2 wks break from all modding/
map making after my birthday so i can concentrate on passing my Physics test. (omg im gonna fail......)
Besides that, please enjoy my maps and STOP ASKIN ME WHERE THE NUKE SNIPA IS ON
SP1CONVD!!!! =P
