(Halo 2)ADI 1.2.C

From what people have said, this program is the easiest to use and can inject bitmaps correctly. It also supports the dll library.

Swamp Fox: Merry Christmas!
Heres a present from me. Read the readme or get coal in your stocking.

One last note about plugin libraries...make sure that the assembly name is the same as the namespace name, and the control class is named DefaultControl or it will not load.

Now that ADI is worthy of capital letters, i feel that you all deserve a taste of whats to come. Enjoy.

Version 1.2.0 CVS

I revamped the UI and added a bunch of convience
features. It doesnt really do anything new, just
does the old stuff easier and in a more professional,
user-friendly way. Also added various view modes
and a built-in registry editor like HHT's. Added
a recent file menu. Added context menu in dependency
swapper for various things. Can maximize.

I wasn't going to release this until Christmas, giving
me a chance to finish my tag editor which you all saw
an early screenshot of. It is not in this build,
however, because I thought you all deserved a taste of
what's to come. And it isn't done yet. Check again on
Christmas, you might have a nice little present under
the file tree. Until then, consider this an early Christmas
present from me to all of you.

Old:
well this is the result of me spending 4 weeks behind the scenes, watching everything that goes on in the community and not saying much. (i tried to incorpoorate everything i saw, and everything i didnt see as well.) i release a program before i release a mod. this thing has too many features to list, so you just have to trust me (you do trust me right?) and download it. most of the stuff that this can do is experimental, and a lot of it is basic also. perfect model injection is a wip, along with P8, A8, Y8, AY8, and A8Y8 bitmap handling. they do work as previews, but dont try extracting them as textures. also on the from-the-future list is recursive compilation and tag adding, they also work to an extent. dont add too many or the map will not work properly. and dont add any raw data requiring stuff. now that my rant is over, enjoy, and pump out some serious mods! ill write a readme tomorrow, as of now, im just tired.

Another Halo 2 modding program...just what you needed, right?

I would have helped the Ch2r devs, like everyone wanted farklem to do, but
this program had its roots much deeper. It is, in fact, older than Ch2r by
far. I tried to gather up all the ideas and discoveries (yes, Iron_Forge,
you are in the readme too, see?) into one colossal application, and with the
help of CLuis, MonoxideC, XIU, tjc2k4, and of course the Fantastic 6, I
think I have. I hope that you feel the same way.

Hey, I downloaded it and I think I found a bug. I load my mainmenu.map file. I click on globals. Then I click on the tag (globals/globals). As soon as I do my hard drive starts reading alot. And the program locks up, I am not able to do anything.

OS: Windows XP SP2
Make: HP Pavilion a450n.

Hope that helps.

I had the same problem at first. I think the Ch2r plugin to edit the multiplayer map list just isn't compatible for some reason... Don't use it and you won't have that problem.

XIU · Post by **XIU** » Sun Jan 02, 2005 12:01 am

running from rar shouldnt be a problem since it extracts all the files first
which would also make it not use ch2r plugins

looking at the error you just dont have the .net framework installed

resign the map before playing!

This might sound stupid to your but what is resign

Martijn Gelissen · Post by **Martijn Gelissen** » Tue Jan 04, 2005 12:36 pm

It's under tools --> checksum calculator, do this every time you change something in a map, or the xbox will give you a dirty disc error

Good luck,
Martijn
