The link on HDM is broken so can someone give me a better link or upload theres on media fire or something else and give me link?!?!!!

[Sparky]

Thanks. Fixed.

[Vegerot]

Wait? HOw do I use this? I thought this was a tag pack?

[Noodle]

It IS. They're already in the map. >_>

Derp.

[Vegerot]

Would my b30 map crash if I put all of these into it even if I didn't use all of them?!

[kiddten]

Once again >.<

Lots of Puncuation

Some posts don't need this.

and yes it will probly crash. or the filesize will grow REALLY large.

*gulp* I am putting in 53 tags(not counting how many are inside of it) wish me luck! It is most of the Actor and Actor Variant tags!

If the tag count goes OVER....5000? then the map will crash.

I believe the number is closer to 7850, but Eschaton 0.8.3 fixed that issue anyway, which is what allowed me to create the INCY.

Vegerot, the bottom line is that you should streamline the map if you plan to release it. Extra tags = extra data = larger file size. In the alpha phases of your map, before its release, determine which of those imported tags you want to keep and which ones don't work at all (some are broken, alas). Do they part of the core theme for your map, or do they just add flair. Tags at the core of the theme should be added with limitations of the game engine in mind (for example, not more than 6 different vehicles, unless you include a gametype turning off respawning vehicles or otherwise avoid the blue warthog respawn glitch).

Use your own best judgement with this, and I look forward to playing your mod

Oh, and take all our opinions here with a grain of salt. And if you can taste that grain of salt, more power to 'ya!

OK! But 1st Eschaton 8.3 nobody told me about that! And I am making b30 maps becuase think about it? There is SO much more potential in the http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/The_Silent_C ... er_(Level)Silent Cartographer(how do you make good links btw?) then in Bloodgulch! The only way it's better is that you can play it with your friends! You know what I am saying?!!

Yes, and you can use the "not rebuilt island" (see the tools page?) to make multiplayer b30.map mods.

The maximum number of tags you can have in a map, normally, is 7820. Beyond this, the tag index gets corrupted. However, you can extend this limit to 32,767 by processing the map file in Zeus.

... Does that work now?
