NHE Map Pack for MCC

NHE Map Pack for MCC (by stunt_man)

With the latest MCC update and the release of the updated HEK, I am happy to announce the early release of these two map packs. NHE (Neutral Host Edition) and the more recent PE (Patch Edition) are popular in the Xbox competitive community, and it is my pleasure to bring the latest versions of the maps to MCC in an easily-distributable format.

New Update (13 October 2021): support for the new Classic HUD (relased with MCC Season 8) has been added! There is also a ~25% reduction in filesize across the map files.

Other minor fixes include the removal of a sound reference in a smoke emitter scenery used in Outbound & Decidia, as well as some small corrections to item spawn times in Atlas (frag grenades, plasma pistol, sniper & shotgun).

New Update (30 June 2021): custom map preview/thumbnail images have now been added!

NOTE: Due to the limitation in MCC that requires vanilla map files to be replaced in order to run custom maps, the following maps are not included with this release: Double Take, Xbox Blood Gulch, Xbox Sidewinder, Xbox Rat Race, Xbox Wizard, Xbox Boarding Action, Xbox Longest & Xbox Chiron TL34. It is only a matter of time before someone releases a "comprehensive" Xbox map pack that includes the entire original lineup. The intention with this map pack is to port the most-played NHE maps to MCC.
