Cool stuff. You should work on loading the effect colors into the sprites in the preview, though.

You can use Windows XP as your primary operating system if you want. Get Microsoft Virtual PC, 2+ GB ram, a graphics card that doesn't suck, some knowledge and you should be good.

I don't see why someone would say it's a waste of money unless they have a really bad computer or hate Halo 2. I play it every now and then, and I'm satisfied with it.

More like what are you talking about. Of course you can edit *** tags, the 'info' is the tag!
By reading those statements, I see how much you actually know about the tag system. And it's not a lot.

It's death on it's way. This place has put so many rules on everything, there's almost nothing you can publically release once it's out.

Inception was going to be a Halo 2 Xbox/Vista editor with conversion capabilities. Things just got too tangled up between us, I suppose.

One of those two unreleased programs is not going to be released.

This is a good group of programs. I enjoy looking back to see what we had even back in the early days.

Actually, the full price of 3ds Max 9 is $3500.

For anyone who hasn't seen yet, there's a full documentation of the .ass plugin in the halo 2 editor help file, so making a plugin for other programs shouldn't be difficult.
