Anybody here mod Halo 1 or Halo 2 (xbox versions)

[XCronus]

^Topic says it all.
Does anybody here mod either of the xbox Halo games?

I"ve done some simple swaps in Halo 2, and I'm making some custom maps for Halo 1.

me kinda

 

[silentdarkfalcon]

I played Halo NMP

Probably one of the most frequent things I do. I mainly enhance the weapons (changing projectiles, making them stronger, that kind of stuff).

I could provide cool mods to Halo 2 maps, not really much with Halo though.
Liek Coagulation on the moon, looks different [gray sand, night time] , enhanced physics [lower gravity], weird weapons effects like the plasma pistol shoots water, the needler blinds people. Simple vehicle changes like the ghost and banshee can boost and shoot at the same time. Also other neat hacks for Waterworks and other sh*t. The site even provides a hacked file that changes the intro to the game [from the blue bungie pills to a trailer type movie, neat]

i need to find the master chief respawn from weapons mod.....for halo 1 would be sweet too if anyone has seen it done in halo 2 yet....i came up with a crazy game type tonite...."where's waldo"

 

[Phrost-Ed-Flakes]

I have Halo 1 with a bunch of modded maps.. Some maps have modded weapons. Nothing on 2 yet

 

[XCronus]

alright, cool cool

@kimosabe: for halo 2, is there any way to edit map meshes aside from hex? what i would like to do is extract the mesh and then modify it in some modeler and then reinject the meta....is there any way to do this yet?

also, is there any way to make new weapon models? (not just model swapping, i mean injecting entirely new models to replace guns and their projectiles)

I've been to Halo Modz, and half of this has been done. They have not been able to put in entirely new weapon models, but they have created new projectiles. For example, in one mod I saw, they turned the Sentinal Beam into a flame thrower, and it looked NICE. They modified the plasma rifles to shoot a blue sentinal beam, etc. It was VERY cool. As I said, I believe the only thing they haven't done is make new weapon models. I bet that is very involved and time consuming.

Halo modding was what first got me into the whole Xbox Mod Scene. This was back when it was all done through hex editing and offset swapping. No cool GUIs application or anything. But its been 2 years later and I've lost count of the Xboxes I've modded, but the knowledge I've gained and the way the whole scene has evoloved is something I'll always cherish. As for the Halo mods, I can supply you with some hard to find patches, such as anti-camo, clear maps, etc. if your interested

 

[HighBomber]

Well those patches you just mentioned are for cheaters. If you use those on XBC then your just as bad as the fags who use stand-by on Halo2.

I have modded Halo and Halo2. I have every map pack, CXE, NMP, NMP2, HaloMaps, and Camels Conversions. I have never made my own map or mods for Halo but I have made my own mods for Halo2. I stopped though because I basically follow the modding scene at HaloMods. When I find out how to change the wire frame of the maps I may start again.

 

[veritas777]

Halo 2 is really easy to mod, espically with the convient programs that lists everything into catagorys... but if I have to I can also to HEX

 

[veritas777]

im gay

 

[XCronus]

im gay

that was certainly *different*
well i guess i have to wait for halo2 utilities to evolve.....*new weapon models*

[I know that wasnt to me, but I thought I'd just make a statement.]

Nah, I only use my mods for fun, nothing to cheat with.

Not that I am aware of man, I havent done enough research as I'm well satisfied with what I have, but I'm sure its definitely possible.

 

[XCronus]

so far theres not a way of injecting edited meshes back into meta tags for scenarios....

God dammit! I just read a tut on a Halo Modding site I cant remember what, that explains this perfectly! AHHHHHH!
