Misc: How To Use A PPF File

Post by SourceGuy »

Since I get alot of emails of people asking how to use ppf's, I will make this a sticky:

here is our "how to use a PPF patch" tutorial

This tutorial is for the Xbox, but using PPF's for HPC is pretty much the same, excpet for the location of your cache files. They are in your halo directory in the folder 'Maps'.

To make one, get the tool from http://halo.gamequarter.nl

ppf's can be applied to any file.. (probably even to themselves, correct? ) just because they are offset switching files.. nothing more then that.. course thats all a computer is.. numbers 0-f but it might get a tid bit complicated...

I'm into making things fun.. So you need to put the steps in order (just look for the numbers on the left, 1, 2, 3, ...)

4. In the top line, click browse on the right and go to view: All Files

1. Get PPF-o-matic from this site http://www.halomods.com/downloads/pafil ... file&id=49

6. In the bottom line, find the ppf and click the create button

2. Download the ppf you want

5. Select the map

3. Open ppf-o-matic

7. Play the map!!

Why don't you just use PPF-O-Matic 3? It is much much easier.
