I model weapons now. I could model maps, but right now I have other things to do. That was also, what, 5 months ago? Much better now thank god......

Except not, because my cat is not only immortal but has the entire military force of the Imperium of Cat guarding him

First map huh...I would say first attempt at modeling something that resembles a map.

Well you have to start somewhere...

I don't know why people release their first maps either. IMO, instead of releasing it for anyone to download, just distribute it privately among friends, family, etc. to test and give you feedback for. So if it sucks ass, you won't be flamed by the entire Halo community and have no one download any more of your maps.

Well, I did get a lot of stuff out of my first map, such as setting up multiplayer elements, some stuff about setting up skies and scenery, and I also learned about the use of elevating scenery. If I ever get the chance to have another 3d Modeling program working on my computer again, I'll try and do what I really wanted to in the first place. IF I do and it turns out like I wanted it to be in the first place, then you won't even be able to tell the resemblance between the maps. It was really my first attempt at making a decent map. Learn from failure.

My first map is rated 8.8 :P

I contradict what you are saying

Though, I do agree, if your first map is a map with just plain simple classic vehicles and weapons and crappy modelling, don't release it.
