Halo D3D9.dll problem!

Yeah, nothing in his PB gallery seems to show cheating.

Woa I totally forgot I still had my mods pictures on photobucket! Yes I did add bloom to every single little texture but it still didn't look that authentic. I modded it a lot and spent so much time on it. Further more I tried modding the games feel as much as I could without altering the gameplay (so people can play on every server).

Also I did play Halo full version for a while. First thing I noticed was that there was A LOT less lag. That made me so happy and it was so much easier scoring head shots. I played until I got bored killing people and having people shut their servers on me because I obliterated them (despite them being admin and talking junk about me).

My computer isn't that bad. Sure it could be better but its good enough. As fritz_da_monkey said I'm trying to improve on Halo's graphic engine..not try getting better fps or make my video card look better(Sure its a 6200 AGP but its got SM3.0!!! ^^)

So!

spikes122..if you could please tell me how I could solve my problem then I would be so grateful...(not only that but that would open up Halo to more than just a simple Bloom shader but a bunch of other shaders that could just make people go *wow* with Halo.)

Also I think that third person mod your talking about was called..like.ugh..banana or yellow or something like that mod. People were getting the same errors that I am getting but most people got the thing to work. (Believe me I've scourged all across the internet trying to find whatever information I can get)

PS: Halo Trial is still very modable

hehe I just had to add this..

I would help you if I could, but I don't know much about dll injection or programming for that matter. Sorry.

Thats ok fritz_da_monkey thanks anyway for all the support and evidence! =)

Not because he is on a dated graphics card, but because the engine is dated. I found this in his photobucket gallery and it seems like he might be on to something.

well if you go back to some of his original posts you see these things..

he referred to the d3d9, my name and "my bloodgulchmod" that wasnt a mod, it was just the map i choose to show the hack in play for my clanmates. the vid title is even named "d3d9".

i do have a vid on youtube showing the d3d9 shader hack and would only assume he was referring to that. wouldnt you?

link to vid im talking about: http://youtube.com/watch?v=o-eM8VbMDzw

now if he is trying to impove his graphics then i could only suggest he get a better card and drivers. sure the halo engine is outdated but ill actually go looking into now also if this is about running the game more brillant and better looking.

like i said..

it just looked funny him mentioning all thoes things ....

fritz_da_monkey · Post by **fritz_da_monkey** » Thu Oct 25, 2007 10:37 pm

I believe he was referring to your redux mod. The redux mod is actually the first thing I thought of. You are trying to make halo look better with it, and d3d9.dll is part of the graphics engine/drivers.

If he is already running the game at max settings with a stable frame rate (I'm pretty sure he is), then updating his hardware and drivers will do nothing. He is trying to improve the graphics the only way left, by improving the game.

I think that it has been made pretty obvious that he isn't trying to cheat with this.

Pepsi · Post by **Pepsi** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 12:24 am

you seen the redux mod. i seen the vid. i get asked about that vid constantly in emails either praising for showing people how people can hack, or people begging for a link to it so they can cheat. same with the aimbot awareness vid i did.

i guess it depends on which side of the fence your on looking into the situation..

btw , when i try to use third person hack or anything other for my halo pc , i get excepion error...is the D3D9.dll causing the problem.btw pepsi how do you turn this wallhack on?

Pepsi · Post by **Pepsi** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 1:06 am

thx developer, you proved my point of my rant from the beginning where my mind set was.

i am now done with this thread unless i do find something to help improve the engine/look/play of the game as this thread is intended for.

but i have 175+ light maps i have to edit yet on the library so im kinda at a full plate right now..

to alfaalex101 i want to apologize for jumping the gun, please look it from my point of view thoe and you'll see where i was coming from in the beginning.

Ok, I understand

PS: I know what you mean when it comes to lightmaps..I got kinda pissed when I edited mines without touching the yellow and orrange boxes in the textures and it gave me this D:

Anyways, I'll check my pm..thanks man!! =)

bcnipod · Post by **bcnipod** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 12:44 pm

that might not be the lightmaps but your graphics card.

fritz_da_monkey · Post by **fritz_da_monkey** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 1:40 pm

alfaalex, could you by any chance send me the source code for the dll? I wont release it and I don't have a compiler. I'd just like to see how you are adding the bloom.

alfaalex101 · Post by **alfaalex101** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 2:49 pm

AHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAH I' just ADDED THE BLOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I still cannot believe it...I might be adding some pictures and maybe even a video ASAP. But..the bad part is ..its using an external program and..the .dll should do a better job..but yea I still need the .dll but for now I got bloom running on it.

(sorry for the laugh..I'm just so happy)

And no it isn't a video card problem..I'm sure of it.

fritz_da_monkey · Post by **fritz_da_monkey** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 4:43 pm

I needs pictures. First to prove that you did it and second because I really want to see it!

alfaalex101 · Post by **alfaalex101** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 7:07 pm

Right ON!! I know I'll get em asap but I want to make a good impression. I'm going to make a small video..no real intense audio/video but it will include bloom and my past project that made Halo look better so..this is going to be a smash hit. What makes me so much more happier is that I (and this other guy) are thinking of adding ANOTHER effect and lik..omg..this is getting crazy what we can do. I'm not going to blurt it out like how I did with bloom but if it takes too long to do I'll just post the bloom + my mod.

PS: My mod alone made the game lag a bit in a full server. Adding bloom puts me at 30fps without my mod. So..it WILL look laggy =( but bloom will still be there

My favorite part: The pistol looks so nice when you shine it in the sun..I'm dying to show you guys a picture but I don't want to ruin it!!!!!!!!!! SO HAPPY!!!! Man you guys are gonna love it..gonna fire up fraps and take some clips =)

Stay tuned for a video or something..like in 4 days? I don't know..but things are going great!

(but..once again this is not a finished product. This is all being done externally and I want to make a nice .dll for people)

Now I'm going to run off and start getting everything ready for recording

DeadHamster · Post by **DeadHamster** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 7:12 pm

Just post a picture or two, no need to wait for four days. Make the video, but give us something to see now.

alfaalex101 · Post by **alfaalex101** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 7:35 pm

yea sure..just tested it out with my mod..what makes me a lil mad is that I originally made my mod with textures that have bloom on them. Now take pre-bloomed textures with actual bloom and..you get a picture that has way too much contrast on it D:

Whatever, putting up a simple vid!

(unless my video really does suck only then will I upload pictures....sorry to keep you guys waiting

)

Update:

wow....40fps with just halo (don't know why its going so slow..used to be 60)
15fps with bloom on (...)
8fps with bloom + fraps recording.
