HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

I started trying to use the BitConverter a little bit ago. As far as I can see, it converts the bytes to hex correctly. However when I convert the hex back into bytes, half the file is empty.

What method would you use to convert them back into bytes?

Thanks.

(C#) I'm trying to convert bytes (from an image) that are not ASCII-printable into a string.
Meaning..
System.Text.ASCIIEncoding enc = new System.Text.ASCIIEncoding();
str = enc.GetString(myBytes);
..does not work, it will show ???? characters.


Any help appreciated.

Good job Dark. I can't believe you guys are still doing stuff with Halo 2. Man I wish it were a few years ago again, those were the fun days. Hey let me know if you guys could ever use some programming help. I've got a hell of a lot better with C# and I think it would be fun to work on some Halo 2 s...

Sorry about the link being down for so long. I fixed it.
Maybe someone could provide a mirror with a more long term server?

The effort and detail you put into many of your mods amaze me.
Great job.

Thanks Neodos. I can test.

I just starting messing with a map for the first time in almost a year. I doubt I will release this though, it's only for fun.
But I did come up with some new ideas to finish my boat mod, if we figure out deathzones I might finish it.

For anyone who cares...
I believe in the Trigger Volumes (deathzones) reflexive in scnr, the XYZ extends floats are mixed up.
It could be H2C or Entity corrupting the deathzones, but I doubt they would even work if that was so.

Eh. I wished people stopping stealing my AI Revision mainmenu. The mappack is poorly compiled and distributed.
A for effort though, it must have taken a while to upload all of those to rapidshare.

why would you ask a dumb question like that?

I've been gone a while. Sorry =/

This doesn't resign that seconds hash thing yet, right?

Yeah, thanks but I gave up on this mod a long time ago. To many errors with the boat.

Why bother when they never touch the BSP?

Why did the French bother to sculpt details on the top the statue of liberty when there where no airplanes or helicopters?

Yeah, wrong forums.
But if you want my opinion I like it. I've never used any other chip though.

Is Dothalo the only program that can extract those? If not update your tutorial with Entity.

Make sure to add AI Zones so they move (properly).

Good job on figuring this out.
Make your post a little more appealing, but good job on the details.

Great job.
Place only a couple hunters. Make them aggressive and invincible - just to add more excitement to normal gameplay.

Mmmmm AI, delicious.
Curious, do they use jmad swaps or AI zones?

It would be cool if you randomly added a foot of water, some trees, more AI with AI zones, and fixed the gametypes. = AI Revision v2 qualified.

I'm glad to see AI mods.
Try to add AI zones or use a SP BSP with AI zones so it can be good enough for AI Revision v2.

Do you have a more creative name for this mod?
