can somebody tell me how to switch the projectiles of guns (ex. sniper shoots rockets) and how to switch guns on a map so that there are diffrent guns in diffrent places (ex. sniper in the flamethrower place for bloodgulch OR start out with needler) and also how to switch the viechles in the game(ex. gun turret in the warthog spawn point)

I have hmt v3.5 plz help me how to do at least some of those things on the demo

with hmt there should be a list called prj and tats how u switch projectiles as for the switchin weapon thing ur outta luck cause u need sparkedit for tat and sparkedits for full vsn

for simple projectile switching, use Halo Hacker Tools, as it is reversable when done that way.

and yeah, you would need to use Spark Edit to move spawn points around, you can try to open the demo maps wit it, but it may not work properly.

sparkedit and HHT do NOT work with trial maps, the only modding tool that is SOME WHAT compatible is HMT, but even then you cant use it to its full abilities.

to get the sniper in flamerthrow location you just swap the sniper with the flamethrower in the weapon tag, same with the vehicle in the vehicle tag.

ok, i remember something that came up about a year and change ago, someone discovered that the only difference between a Halo PC map and an HCE map was the header at the beginning, and a simple copy-paste would let you edit the map in HMT, HHT, SE, and whatnot, the swap back to play. so try that, copy the header from an HPC map, paste it over the Demo map header, edit, and change it back.

dont think tatl work

If your talking about switching from a HaloCE to PC map to edit then switching back, just get the Halo Map Converter. It works wonders. A bit screwy every now and then but I like it, its helpful.

Where do you get the Halo Map Converter

dont remember, but if you open it up in text-edit, copy the header and paste it over the other one (depending on how u want to convert)

u mean notepad right beacuse when i open it its all gibbiris

yes, it is suposed to be, you have to copy that first chunk, that is kinda seperate from the rest. or something like that. if you look at all of the PC ones, you will notice that one line of that chunk is the same for each, the same is true of all the CE ones, to convert one to the other, copy that line and paste over the other.
