HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Hi Nick ^_^

Heh... Just wanted to say "Hi!" to any OG crew still involved in the community! It looks like things have been pluggin' along the last few years. It's good to see there still seems to be a good strong Halo modding scene. Good to know, good to know... [gears turning] Anyway, I have been lur...

HXBDev.org is back up.

...until I get hacked again I guess.
Well, at least I made it harder for them.

Yep...I got hacked by some loser. :cry: There is an exploit in phpBB that was just discovered that can allow someone to inject sql & execute php code. Very, very bad. Anyone running phpBB really should upgrade to phpBB 2.0.11 or they are at risk. It does appear that some got into HM's phpBB data...

Yep, I agree with {ST} 117. They probably created a huge SP campaign, cut it in half, released 1/2 of it in H2 and the rest will be in H3. Then they'll probably do something similar for H3 MP...10 or so new MP maps, and some more remakes of Halo MP levels. My theory is that we'll probably see H3 on ...

Just edit your original post & attach them like you did with the other files.
They'll show up as in-line images rather than file links.

Feel free to upload your mod to my site, HXBDev.org.

Wow, there's another completely immature, tasteless screen name.

I'd been having some trouble with injecting new models, so I decided to do something really simple, and then work up from there, so that I could hopefully figure out where I'd been making my mistake. I decided to inject the default pistol model from Bloodgulch over the default pistol model in Halo....

VerticeFixer is for use when ripping vertices from HaloCE gbxmodel tags, per Poke's tutorial that comes with Xinject. It just takes the compressed vertices & swaps endian properly so that you can inject them into an Xbox maps. Sorry, I'm not sure what's going on with your model injection. It sou...

wow, u really must be new here. Well, you now can with the new xinject, put in custom CE weapons and scenery. But you never could put in new bases. Bitmap edits and stuff....but no new models. And, yes, you can still edit them. Actually, sorry to contradict you, but have you played Vengeance? It co...

Can some one please gimme a link to a download that has the building blocks and logs so i can make some crazy stuff lots of ideas for bg That's a pretty distastefull name there, man. :shock: I'm down with shock-value and all, but "known2rape" is nothing but pointlessly over the top. I'm g...

You're surprised? You must be new.

This is my first attempt at extracting/injecting. What I want to do is extract the glass from my Hostile Takeover map and inject it back in over another unused piece of scenery (perhaps the shaftring). This way I'll have two glass panels and I can skin one a different color. When I go to extract ra...

Also, if pokecancer sees this, what was wrong w/ Xinject before the fix? I know, I'm not poke, but I'm a beta tester, so... :wink: The first release of XInject 3.1 wouldn't extract any raw data from Xbox maps, and it didn't make necessary changes to CE mod2 meta when you extract it. Afaik that's it.

thanks for your time, i appreciate it

No problem.

im pretty new to modding so im probly not doing something very simple im using hmt and im changing the scenery tag to vehi unit obje and saving so it goes to the vehi area but then every time i swap it with a vehicle and save it doesn't save right and the meta size is 0 anything in particular im do...

I'm trying to change the teleporter from green to blue. I tried changing both shader entries for it in HMT 3.5 and no luck. I found the green bitmap for it, scenery\teleporter_base\bitmaps\teleporter_dust, but it is saved as an X8R8G8B8 file, and it doesn't look like the DDS plugin for Photoshop su...

convert wrote:is bitmap\a30\a30_a responsible for how bright the level is?
i'm not talking about the shaders....not the light volume on the textures,
but the general level of light on the level. The area is indoor.

Yes.
