Ok, I made a mod.. and its active and all, i know people need the same map to view it.. but in other modded servers only the host needed the mod, and everyone who joined could see/use what the mod does. Does anyone know how to do this?

thats impossible, mods are server side only (unless the other people have the mod)

think of it this the host has modded there map to say make the warthogs go faster, ok so they start server and somoene joins. The server and joiner (aka client) have 2 differant maps, the server is tellling the clients map that the wartho goes faster... but they client map is saying fuck you thats impossible, and trys to make it go at normal speed..., so the server FORCES the warthog to go faster, resukt in laggy effects

so in away they CAN see it, but the cant SEE it.... lol

Ok, well all that happened in that server is that all the guns were sniper rifles, but I didn't have the mod and it still worked for me.

It works in some cases. In the weapon case, it should work without client modded maps. Try it out and see.

Ok, To swap all the weapons for sniper rifles or anything else... Do i have to replace the Meta of say Assault rife from the Weapons Subtitle in HMT with the meta of the Sniper rifle.. and hope that it works for everyone?
Edit: Ok I tried replacing weapons with sniper rifle... and it worked for me but no one else, replacing weapons with ammo or equiptment of sniper just causes exceptions... I don't know how they did it! Any ideas?

the only thing that joiners will see in this case is a weapon.... say the assault rifle, with only 4 shots =\

Its an option in the Halo setup menu. Its not a mod. Go through the
custom gametype menu, you can specify things like aal sniper or no
sniper, all rockets etc.

this is for trial you cant edit gametypes in trial

and if you saw all snipers when you joined a game it has to be because your map is modded

Ok, Thanks for the info... Its sorted! Wooo It works.

Apparently in HMT if you change the Item collections around it works, In item collection change the meta of say Assault rifle with the meta of Sniper rifle, And Voila! It works 100% No exceptions, and... People who don't have the mod can see it and use it, I replaced all the guns exept pistol with sniper rifle... Whats else, I replaced the flag with a sniper rifle, Its gone, Replaced Banshees with a sniper rifle, And they're gone too!
No one can use shees or take the flag now! Its cool.... I would like to upload the mod to halomods servers (So it can be scanned by Mods just incase) and then everyone can use it!
