HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

well ok i didnt really know how to title this but what i wanted to know was that if i apply a serenity patch or a ppf to a map its modded sometimes u have to resign it sometimes u dont what i wanted to know though was can i change the name of the map say if i was modding coag could i change the name of the map to something else so its like the original coag which i can still paly and then the modded coag.... can i do that and how because i tried it with a serenity and a ppf i applied the serenity to coag and changed the output map to a different name... then after it finished applying i resigned the new named map and it said resigned then i put it with the rest of my maps but it didnt show on the list.. any help would be appreciated

For future reference serenity auto resigns. Also you have to have Halo 2 on your HDD to work that app.

the whole game or just what i need to play because all i have so far r the files to load halo 2 and then the files to play multiplayer stuff..... nothing single player do i need single player?

You don't need single player.

ok well then i have everything i need basically u were saying i needed the mainmenu and maps and everything on my hd well i have that...... my question now is how do i use this mainmenu changer..... i dont think its compatible with the custom killtrocity menu because i tried and its just symbols and numbers but with original i saw it worked......so now basically my question is can i get this one or another editer to work with killtrocity and how do i use it because i saw the value stuff and those team buttons and had no idea what i was doing lol

Silly Pat. The map pack comes with a patch for the main menu that automatically adds all the map names and pictures.

thats right lol hehe woops more like stupid pat...... so then i need to make a patch.... ok im catching on slowly but im catching on... does this mainmenu editor does it make a patch when u edit it or just change the .map file... could i possibly jsut take the killtrocity patch instead and change it to fit in more maps...... if so what would i use to do that??

No you don't need to make a patch, the map pack already comes with one. The mainmenu app changes the .map file. Last part I'm not exactly sure what you want to do.

ya but the app doesnt recognize the killtrocity type like it doesnt show maps or anything jsut random symbols of things and i want to keep all my killtrocity maps but i also want to add a couple to the list and i want to know how to do that either with this mainmenu editor or anyone because this one doesnt seem to work with killtrocity unless im doing something wrong

Im thinking the main menu patch may be secured. Why would you want to add maps to it?

make another halo 2 copy.. killtrocity mainmenu only has 3 remaining slots.

so thats why the killtrocity tut said make a new folder hehe i guess ill do that

ok lol i got 2 seperate games....... killtrocity and halo 2 the original where i can mod the new maps and the old ones..... righ tnow all i want to know is how do i use the mainmenu editor its got these weird values things and all that and its got 50 available slots so what do i do to add new modded maps that i make???
