[tuntunkhanrocks]

@HaloTrialModders if that happen. then download netframework v1.1 :D

[ak1149]

when i try to start halomaptools.exe it says "The application failed to intialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to terminate the app" or something like that

[Shino767]

mying just says not a halo map help plz

[Headsetphobias]

@Shino767 You are using custom edition, you need a converter called Halo ap Version converter, look it up and download it, convert BEFORE and AFTER you mod, there are tutorials on how to use it

[randomizedudes]

im really confused :S because i do what i want and it doesnt do any differance and im urgently doing this as im going to be playing this at school tomz with my friend to show off :) and i can get any to work and also if a just want to play a normal game of the map would i have to change it back to the old things???????????

[randomizedudes]

this is very confusing to me even tho i usaly get thing just like a click but if i want a banshee to shoot rocket what would i do and also how would i be able to play both type of the map will it just save and it be on the list or would i have to redo the map???

[DoogBoy123456]

Okay if all of these are for noobs then why don't you show us advanced ones? That's right, you can't.

[MrASDFSkyler]

@DoogBoy123456 He didn't even reply yet. HAHA.

[iloveguitar338]

[acolyteelite]

becuz i remember it from the game xD

[acolyteelite]

only reason why its not working because u have custom edition

u need COMBAT EVOLVED to do it!

[zeskvorox]

tnx so much!

[cheatmaster971]

when i did it all nothing at all changed Why is that??

[battleship92]

@cheatmaster971 You probably forgot to save or close the map file, closing the map file is probably the problem. If you don't most of the things dont get changed.

[PublicToasty]

Man I had to figure out how to use it, if only I found this. Well anyway my mods are amazing I just need more mod ideas. You should make a vid showing the best mods you know (not PMI, I tried that and failed every time.)

[MrRufflez101]

I cant get the map to load it either says cant find file or its invalid. Where can i get the maps and weapons. what exactly do I need to do this? I have the HTM v3.5 downloaded but i cant figure out the rest. help please

[homestarzelot]

[tiger5125]

[PublicToasty]

I cant find the maps when I click open, it just shows documents and stuff, no maps! Do I need custom edition?

[xXhalofavoritesXx]

when i do what i want and edit all of the weapons then when i quit out and open halo: first of all i don't know what to host my game in: LAN? Create internet? then when i click on the map that i edited after i quit out of the halo map tools it minimizes halo and says "adding exeption" then says "halo has stopped working" so can someone help explain everything after i edit weapons please. Thanks

[Orillion94]

@NFSMANIA252 Of course not, you replaced all pistols with the fuel rod! To add/copy and paste spawn points, use sparkedit, or something like that.

[haloreachers]

@Orillion94 i cant copy and paste the meta thing

[startrek21000]

[Orillion94]

The game directory; wherever you installed Halo, mine is in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\MAPS

If you don't know what a directory is, I can't help you... it's a basics of the basics term

[SLITHERMAN54]

when i try to do it i do infinity then the game type and it closes down halo and i get exception HELP

[rooket6]

[lazynbord]

I shall assist you with the exception error

But.. i have one question for you did you back up all the files

If you didn't to get rid of exception error re download the program and everything has no error that's all i have to say to you ^_^

[mybuthurts123456789]

it eaither doesnt work with no disk or it doesnt work with vista

[mybuthurts123456789]

[Orillion94]

what do you mean?

just run the game as you normally would

[DemonWolfMaster17]

4:16 what plugins pack???

[Orillion94]

the first link you see when you google "Halo map tools v3.5 plugins"

[DemonWolfMaster17]

ok thx o and ive been having trouble with my HMT ive done everything in ur vid saved it all and nothing happened when i was done

[DemonWolfMaster17]

when i select my map it says cannot find file do i have to have the disc in while i do this or do i need another download???

[DynamicDuo2155]

hey wen i make the mod it comes up gethering infomation exception then makes an error and closes?? can u help??

[Orillion94]

you did something to make it an error, you will have to start over

things like that happen when you mod it too much, like changing shotgun speed or changing more than 3 weapons to vehicles

[halo368]

lol first person warthog

[OlegAVP]

what site did you get the mods i need mods so badly

[merlin2133]

where do I extract the plug ins to

Great vid btw thanks

[Orillion94]

the plugins folder where you installed hmt

[desiringgold]

dud what do i do if modes dont work i no i saved i dont no what else do

[Orillion94]

what do you mean by it doesnt work?

exception error? map not loading? mod not working?

[desiringgold]

mod not working

[Orillion94]

as in not showing up, then the mod is not loaded

make sure the modded map is in the Maps folder of your directory (backup first)

cant think of any other problems

[Rockez221]

thx dude.oh and can u tell how con i make a rocket launcher shooh lyk a machine gun.oh and how can i put vehicles lyk a pelican on blood gulch or any other maps

[Orillion94]

just change the rocket launcher's ammo to high (or set ammo usage to 0) but it would be better to change the ammo and fire rates, say 100 ammo per clip and 10 shots per second

as for pelicans and such you should learn to PMI (Perfect Model Injection) but I'm not really familiar with the steps anymore, so you take a shot at it with google or something

[5454bighead]

hey the pelican thing whe ni try to rebuild the map with the pelican it says it cant fing the file build.txt and i was wondering what is causeing it just pm me plz if you know if you dont it is still ok bye

[Rockez221]

how do i make a rocket home on targets, also how do i do that for the fule rods

[Orillion94]

go into the *projectiles* tag, and find rocket and plasma_cannon (something like that) and under homing, set it to about 0.5-1

for reference, you can look at a needler projectile to see how much 0.5 homing is compared to the needler's number

[godmick]

thanks

=) happy face

[andr3wf00l]

do you know how to put an ai like a grunt on blood gulch or something

[Orillion94]

that's pmi process

im sure theres one somewhere around here

[godmick]

could you give me a link to some web site where i could download the plugins pack?

[Orillion94]

google "halo map tools plugins" it should be on the first link there =P

[godmick]

i cant remember he had modded his halo also but he didnt show how he modded it

[Orillion94]

can't help you, but if you do ever figure out how to do that then let me know, ill give you credit if i ever make some weird conversion mod =P

[godmick]

but cant the overheat be removed on one video the guy shot about twenty times and it didnt overheat with plasma pistol it shot four bullets at the same time

[Orillion94]

was that a server run mod

[godmick]

cool guns could you make a vid where you make two different fuelrod cannons like the differense would be for the firts gun fast fire super fast fire rate and shoot multiple bullets and for second i would make it shoot wart hog machine gun bullets at huge fire rate

[Orillion94]

thats pretty easy, all you do is go to weapons and under warthog gun change the fire rate of 15 to say, 50 or change the amount of projectiles fired

and as for multiple bullets, just find the weapon you want to change and switch some numbers (but be careful with plasma weapons since they can overheat)

[dimolisher00]

aits in ok one but how do i get the file deth island to hmt

?

[tracybrauer]

NOOB means... stupid.. slow and occasionally......... RETARTED???? hahahah nice vid tho ... helped me out a lil cos im new to this.... TX

[HaloRisingStudios]

What I did was I did all the stuff you told me to do.

Then I start it up and then its says Gathering Exceptional Data?

[Orillion94]

you did something wrong, like setting a number too low or high like negative numbers, do a few simple things like rocket bullets and test it to see if it works

[VirtualGlitch]

yeah, it does that to me to. The computer finds errors in Halo and shuts it down. You'll have to find in your files in your exception files it shows which exception data you can receive from programs. and make it so you get exception data except from Halo or else it Halo will be shut down. That's how I did it. I can make a tutorial about it if you need more help.

[XxYucayequexX]

Googlo is not my Friend !

[Orillion94]

It only is if something isn't wrong with your comp...

I lost patience with google for 2 weeks when is spazzed out on me, froze everytime

then it stopped ^^

[butasingh14408]

do u just start it and the mod comes

[Orillion94]

yup, pretty much it

its like changing something in the game so its like that already, since the game is built to automatically read that file (BACKUP FIRST!)

[ieatmonkeys501]

any1 know how to make the grunt fuel rod gun not detonate, if so plzzzzzzzzzzz tell me

[213mark132]

[Orillion94]

[dilman02videos]

[Orillion94]

Im sure google will turn something up 'Halo trail halo map tools' maybe ...we write descriptions for a reason "google is your friend google is your friend google is your friend google is your friend google is your friend google is your friend google is your friend google is your friend"

[echo2436]

hey how can i make a pelican destroyable with no dev's i sawed a mod a pff file then i played and i was playing as elite and i shot a pelican with a ghost 10 shots and exploded how?? please reply.

[Orillion94]

To have an undestroyable one use the pmi process, dont use pff... extract a pelican from the map called b30

search on google:

se7ensins pmi process

(great text and picture guide)

to have a destroyable one, i have no clue how ^^ (im not a 4star modder...)
