Properly Injecting Scripts
by Shadowz O Death

Introduction
This step-by-step tutorial demonstrates how to properly inject a script into a Halo 2 map without the hassle of cloning chunks or overwriting pre-existing scripts.

Prerequisites
1. H2Core

Decompiling Map
1. Open H2Core.
2. In the menu bar, click "File" then "Open."
3. Double-click the map that you wish to inject scripts into. I'll be using Ascension.
4. In the menu bar, click "Map" then "Decompile."
5. When finished, close H2Core.

Injecting Script
1. Open H2Guerilla.
2. In the menu bar, click "File" then "Open."
3. Double-click "H2," "scenarios," "multi," "ascension," then "ascension.scenario."
4. Click "Editors" then "Script Tools."
5. Click "Add New."
6. Type a script into the text box. I'll be using the following no gravity script.

Code: Select all

(begin
 (script startup no_gravity
  (physics_set_gravity 0)
 )
)

7. Click "Done."
8. Close H2Guerilla.

Rebuilding Map
1. Open H2Core.
2. In the menu bar, click "File" then "Open."
3. Double-click the map you wish to inject scripts into.
4. In the menu bar, click "Map" then "Rebuild."
5. Click "..."
6. Double-click "H2," "scenarios," "multi," "ascension," then "ascension.scenario."
7. Check "Keep Existing Spawns."
8. Click "Rebuild."
9. When finished, close H2Core.

Conclusion
Congratulations! You've successfully injected a script. Enjoy!

does this break system link or not or is it a case of everyone needs the same .map
PS thanks for sharing this, the amount of hair I've pulled out over script injection isn't even funny

Did you inject the script to a clean map? If not, try adding it to a clean map and see if it works. If it does, it's obviously something wrong with the mod.
