Section Rules - Halo 3 Modding Q&A

[uralllame]

im pretty sure its a useless effort to mod those saves, my theory is that because they are not present when you havent saved a game in campaign, they are not used to store your armor/service tag etc. As for modding your campaign saves, i believe they are a savestate and non modifiable.

I'm not talking about that file. Turk knows what I'm on about. Can you modify your service tag to contain some of the medal icons? I really want an "Incineration" medal.

maybe, just some trial and error to find what hex value would equal the medal.

Couldn't you find the correct string in the mainmenu map or something?

[shade45]

You can probably use them in the usermap description. The gamertag and service tag strings are in unicode format thats probably why its not working.

[turk645]

either way you still need trial and error to get the right values.... also shade you are never on the messager so i cant send you that file.

For now you can try with the button identifiers I found a while back:

Code: Select all

   Start: EE848C20 
A Button: EE848020 
B Button: 20EE8481 
X Button: EE848220 
Y Button: 20EE8483

Edit:

Now that I think about it, I think they are as follows:

Code: Select all

   Start: EE848C
A Button: EE8480 
B Button: EE8481 
X Button: EE8482 
Y Button: EE8483

Let me just test this profile real quick and I'll get on it

Ok I tested it and it works!!

NOTE: The EE in the values is just to identiy that there it is infact a picture, and 20 is a space. Each value is actually a short.

Also I looked for the emblem values in zanzibar, but I only found test strings, to image values.

[shade45]

Awsome that was the description u edited then right?

[LuxuriousMeat]

Woot, nice job Grimdoomer.

[XxPTLegitxX]

yeah it works thanks i put it in the description of the usermap. xD

[DEEhunter]

Any way to make this work on unicode characters and not ASII?

[grimdoomer]

Awsome that was the description u edited then right?

Yes, I don't think it will work if you did it in the name because it's unicode.

I'll try to find the medal values later, my XP partition got wiped out my spyware. Im running damage control now

[DEEhunter]

Found some new Icons.
LB = EE848420
RB = EE848520

Note: I did't have time to test them, but they should be right. I still don't see any sign of the emblems though [/code]

Edit: I checked the whole English local table and did't find them.

[DEEhunter]

Test at least one of them.

[grimdoomer]

I garentee there correct.

81A7 - Play Button

[DEEhunter]

There should be a variable for current time or date.

[grimdoomer]

8488 - Up Arrow

Hmm, I think I know how to get the Emblems. Im leaving to my grandmas house so I wont be able to test any more today. But if you goto the end of the English local table you will see something like:

Code: Select all

........... ............. ..........

the 2 bytes befor the space are ussually picture codes. But they must have a EE infront of them. Good luck to you, I'll be back later.

8281 - Thumbs Up

[DEEhunter]

I already posted the UP but the thumbsup thing is useful. How are you finding your values?
