a few small problems

Post by sundriedprawn »

ok here it goes

1. i think my dothalo is screwed cause when ever i go in to Tag editor for a vehi scroll down to seats and click any of the boxes and it will come up with this message

Plugin X

there was an error while changing a value

OK

2.i all ways get "you failed to load map" message when i ftp my maps to xbox (i fix the encryption and sign it with encryptomatic signature)

3.how do i make ppfs and do i need to make the modded maps that i ftp to my xbox ppf files

and last of all

how do i put the ppf file over the map? e.g relic.ppf over relic.map

thank you

1. When you change the seat number you need to select (aka highlight) the number then change it. Or you just dont have the updated plugin for the [vehi] tag.

2. With DotHalo you dont need to sign it with encryptomatic signature. I used to sign mine with CMR. Then found out that you only need to hit Fix Encryption in DotHalo and it should work.

3.I dont know how to make PPF's :D

hit make ppf in dothalo and put in the modded map and the original(unmodded) map and where you want it saved and create it. or use ppf studio.

they are patches that hold the info on what was change from the original to the modded map. you can then post the ppf for people to download and apply to their original map so that they can have the same map that you made.

you download the ppf of the map you like, open ppf-o-matic put the original copy of the map that the ppf is for in the correct spot, then put the ppf in the spot for the patch and hit apply. ppf-o-matic the takes all the differences in the ppf and changes the map to match it.
