HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Here is the first release of my program. There is some cool music from 2 betrayals also. You need the fix the reflexives manually for now. I don't think it needs directions because if you can fix the reflexives by hand then you should know enough to know how to use this program. It works for MP and SP, any level. It inserts the raw data at the end of the file in empty space so you can have full songs now. I need anyone who knows about the hex buffer overflow in vb6 to help me now. Please give me some feedback if you use this.

actually..... here's a quick and simple tutorial.
1. Open HMT.
2. Choose snd! you want to inject and enter it's meta offset in HSI as Offset 1.
3. At the top left is something like this:E7FF068B @ 0x234878. Copy E7FF068B to the clipboard.
4. Click on Utilities and go to the box to the left of swap endian. Enter E7FF068B and swap endian. Paste that in HSI as Ident 1
5. Enter the sound's meta size too.
6. Do the same for the sound you want to inject over.
7. Click Import in HSI after setting it up. Load the map files too by click on browse and choosing the map above the approriate offset.
7. Open HHT. Extract the meta for the sound you are importing and the meta you wrote over.
8. Open both metas in a hex editor.
9. In the meta for the sound you overwrote go to offset 0xEC and highlight til the end of the file. Copy this to the clipboard.
10. Go to the same offset in the meta for the sound you are importing and highlight everything. Paste over this.
11. Inject the meta for sound you are importing over the meta you wanted to overwrite. If you overwrote an effect or something else, you have to change it to a snd!.
12. Done!

With this method you don't have to fix the reflexives by hand like I mentioned before.

thts sweet pokecancer ! thnx dude

Thx, fixing the sounds is like fixing some other shit like snow, cool. I hope to see the pmi prog wink wink nudge nudge

yeah, i am also waiting for the pmi progy! Thanks this is great too!

Badass man, this is exactly what I needed. I really hope that you can find some help on the model injection program too, thats another thing on my wishlist. Keep the mods coming!

Yeah! If Mono was still around, he would, probably, be able to help you! If the PMI program never comes out, I will have to learn how to inject models with your tutorial! Anyways, now I can listen to some cool tunes while I waste my friends as a grunt!

damn it seems u came out of no where doing all this new and hot shit... did u use to be someone else?

Nice. So this will let us inject a 7 second sound from map A, over a 1 second sounds in map B?

This is just music from other levels right? I wonder if it's possible to play your own music during halo.

that would be awesome

that's what it does.

Pokecancer, in step 3 of your mini tut, do these numbers appear when you put the offset in offset 1? Please help.

it's in hmt.

I put some music in from silent cartographer, but i have to go to school now, i'll test it when i come home.

Yep, this program works wonderfully. Will the PMI program be like this?

the problem seems to be with making ppfs of the music. the PMI, which is almost done, will be much simpler to use.

What if we upload the music meta so people inject it themselves?

sound is more than just the meta. it is also raw data so it wont work.there has to be a solution though. i will try a different ppf maker after i finish what im working on.

Just out of curiosity, is there anythin happening with mod2 to mod conversions?
