Changing Vehicals and Weapons

Post by iceman465 »

Is there a mod to change the vehicals so that they fire differently. I am a newb please help me. One time i was playing against a guy that was shooting rounds out of the Scorpion Tank as fast as rounds would come out of a SMG. Also is there a mod to change weapons the way they fire, such as the Sniper Riffle? ->like make it fire real fast. I would only use these mods in Custom Games.

-> please reply or email me at [email protected]

Open Dot Halo,

Go to Weapons Tag, Find 'objects\vehicles\scorpion\turrets\cannon\cannon_turret'

Go into tag editor scroll down a wee bit and select firing Type "0" change it From Semi Automatic to Fully Automatic


(make sure you have the latest version of Dot Halo)

Change projectiles of weapons and weapons on vehicals

Post by diamondman »

If you open H2x and save the meta of the weapon you want to mod, then open the meta text file (there will be two saved files, the seccond should be readable in notepad) and find the line that says "tagReference|.....(file link to the projectile)|proj". Change the link to a dirrerent projectile, save the meta and inject it into the weapon you extracted it from. This will make the weapon fire a lot different. To change the weapon used in a vehical (TURRETS included, like on the tank, it's spinning turret is a seperate vehical too) you could extract the meta like you would for weapon and change the |weap link, or open insolence and click on the vehi tag, click on the blue text labeled "weapons" and change the weapon link, if no blue text is there, or no weap link is present in the meta, that vehi probobly links to a turret that has the weapons on it so select the turret and do the above. But to make it automatic and stuff, follow WoNkA's instructions!

go to http://halomaps.com/index1.html and under the top bar it says xbox programs, mouse over and go under halo 2 where almost every halo 2 editing program I have ever heard of is listed for download.
