Hello everyone, this is scubakobe again, but Im back and better. I have more knowledge now, but I am stumped on one thing right now. I have made a ppf patch in dot halo, but whenever I transfer the map I used the ppf patch on into my xbox and try to load it, it fails to load. I am trying to mod any of the maps, coagulation, containment, and so on. I have it dug in my head that someone made the ppf patch that im using and it works, but why doenst mine? What could I possibly be doing wrong?
Thanks,
Scubakobe
(Also,sorry about the last posts i made I was in a confused and frustrated state, but now im in a better mood! :D )

Ok i got serenity and made a patch. Than I patched the map with the patch I just made, than I loaded the patched map in dot halo and signed it. Than I went to load it and it didnt load. This is weird and annoying, does anyone know how to get your own mods to work? because mine obviously arent :x

I had this problem too, and the reason my patches werent working in both ppf and serenity was because I had imported bits from other maps, the prophets chair and the scarab gun projectile, as soon as i took those out and made the patch again it worked... im not sure if its the same for you?

hey

Hey, you know I did have a thought of that problem before, but I thought it couldnt be possible. So how can I check to see if they aren't from other maps. Here may be an example, say I switched a turrets meta to a banshees meta, but there is no banshee on the map? Your idea to the problem is probably definitely worth the time to look in to.
Ohhh, I just remembered though, when I simply changed a warhogs tag to Flying, it didnt load......but wait.... maybe I didnt make it a patch than patch it on the map. Hmm, lol I am not sure, I will give that a try, since it is probably the most basic and has less that could go wrong (Only have to check the Flying box lol)

Thanks!

Ok I did it

Ok, I made a ppf patch for containment in Dot Halo, than I applied it to a unmodded containment map and signed it. Now when I load the map it takes awhile, than just says "You Failed to Load the Map", now this is irritating! :x
I tried every method in the book just about!
Maybe there isn't warthogs on containment and thats why its not loading??
Hmmm... I dont know

The maps stored in your tdata can't be resigned. Add them to your mainmenu.

And I didn't think I'd have to say this but do not post resigners for the new maps..

ok

Ok so I dont resign them? I will try that, and add them to the main menu.
What do you mean I posted resigners?

You didn't someone else did.
You do resign the maps and add them to your mainmenu after you mod them.
