Description:

NOTE:Once again this map took less than 2 hours to make
it is to fit the need of players who like rockets.

Rocket base is a distinctive unique map in some ways.Most people like to play
rockets on an empty griftball court..how'd that work out?Rocket base has a number of shields
and fence walls to hold some protection and not completely and utterly boring as hell.
It has a center which consists of a box made of shields,this may seem cheap but
the box is a protection box and a death trap 65% of the time i guarantee that if you
stay in that box your going to commit suicide.Around it is 4 fence walls behind that are 4
large energy shields and a large energy shield in the back of the map to hold
some protection.

---------------------------------------------------------------------|
Weapons/grenade:

2*Bubble shield
1*Gravity lift

Screen shots:
The map.

The northwestern part of the map,And the death box.Rest assured stay in there and you will commit suicides...ALOT.

The northeastern part of the map,you can pretty much know where the other object go

Dramatic shots:

OUCH!

Fly away!

Make sure you have pictures by the end of 24 hours or this thread will be locked. I suggest you get them ASAP.

Please, no one else post about how this thread isn't up to standards.

no i know all about the pictures but problem is I'm taking screen shots and it wont appear on the hi-res screen shot place..its really pissing me off.

Are you playing on a local connection? Because you have to be connected to Live so the screenshots can transfer to Bungie.net.

Alright, it has come to this. A pictured tutorial on how to embed your Halo 3 screenshots of your map, in your post. I see too many people post maps without pictures, not knowing how, and then members try to explain. So I made this:

Embedding Screenshots in your Map's Thread

Part 1: Taking a screenshot.

Sorry, no pictures for this section, don't have a capture card, but it is soo easy, I shouldn't need to explain, but I will.
1. After recently playing your map, go to "Theater Mode".
2. Select the match you played, and "Start Film".
3. Press "Y" after film has started, and pause the game (or not), and position your camera.
4. Click the camera symbol on the navigation bar.
5. Save it.
6. Now onto...

Part 2: Getting your screenshot off of Bungie.

1. Open up your Internet Browser (I use Firefox) and go to our dearly belovedBungie.net, and go to My Stats/Find a Player.

2. Then, go to the right of the screen, to "People Finder". Make sure that it is set to Halo 3, and type in your Xbox-Live Gamer tag. Then click "Search"

3. You should then being on your Gamer Tag profile. Go to and click "Hi-Res screenshots".

4. Find the Screenshot you wish to embed, and click on it. Also, make sure pop-ups are allowed from Bungie.net.

5. A large version of the screenshot should come up in a separate window. Again, click the screenshot.

6. This should come up, asking you what program to open the screenshot with, or to save it to disk. For simplicities sake, just check off "Save to Disk" and the click "OK".

7. Depending what your preferences are, the picture could be saved to a number of places, if you are using Firefox, then this should come up. Click "Open" on the top one, which is more than likely the screenshot you are looking for.

8. An image viewing program displaying the screenshot should come up. Click the save option, in this case a floppy disk icon.

9.Save your image as a JPEG file, under a folder and name you can find later. Type the name in and click "Save".

10. Congrats, now you have your screenshot on your computer. Now onto:

Part 3: Signing up for a Photobucket account, and uploading your screenshot to the internet.

1. Start by opening your internet browser, and going to Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket. Why Photobucket? Cause I find that Imageshack is a pain and people seem to get nothing but thumbnail pictures from it, if they do try to embed their screenshots. Once there, click "Join Now" cause IT'S FREE!

2. Type in a username, and a password that you can remember. Then click "Next Step".

3. Now fill the form out, when you are done, click "I accept. Sign me up!"
Note that none of that information is true to me. That is not my name, or birthdate, or anything.

4. Follow instructions from there.

5.Go to Login on Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket, type in your username and password, and then click "Login".

6. You should now be in your album. Find the section in the middle of the screen like the one below, and click "Choose Files", and make sure the size is set to 640x480.

7. An "Open File" window comes up. Now find your screenshot where you saved it, click on it, and then click "Open". Note that you can select more than one image before click "Open" by clicking your first image, and then (while holding down the SHIFT key) click on the other images you wish to add.

8. Give it time to save the screenshot on the internet. Click "Cancel" to stop uploading.

9. When it is done, this screen will come up. Give it a title and a description, or just skip that, and click "save and continue"

10. And now your screenshot is on the internet, ready to be embedded.

Part 4: Embed your image in your post.

1. Go to your "my albums" on your photobucket page, which is located in the top navigation bar. Then, scroll down the page until you find your screenshot.

2. Click on the text in the space next to "IMG Code". This will automatically copy that link to your clipboard.

3. Go to post your Map Thread, and right click/Paste the IMG code (an image code is the direct link url of an image, in between [img] [./img], but without the ".")

4. Yay!

Well, I hope this was helpful to those who had no idea how to embed their screenshots before. And those who find themselves telling newcomers that their Map Threads are not up to standards without pics, send them this way.

I will delete this once you have.

For one thing it's a rocket map.....honestly i'd like to see a guy who made i fancy interlocked rocket map rather than a simple one people can enjoy.

Two don't bother saying that kinda stuff just keep it to yourself.
