Since we're on the subject... I fished up this pic, it was from the first week of receiving the box.

He explained that it was done a devkit.

No. It was me playing as a Grunt, going back in theatre, and taking a picture.

Also I'm not stating the program's features as of yet. Maybe someday it will be released without its RTH capability.

i thought you told me it was possible to film mod.
Edit: never mind, i get what your saying, but any chance on you telling me how to film mod a grunt? you told me it was possible.

Why take out the RTH if we can't even use it?

Why keep it in if you can't use it?

Nice move.

Because if there was an RTH... A bunch of irresponsible, spoiled 12 year olds would get their parents to buy them devkits, and would put others using the service at risk.

I don't know about you, but I don't know many 12 year olds who have parents willing to go through the trouble of getting one, especially when it's not quite legal.

And I don't know many parents who have 12 year olds with $800+ and don't question a box that came in the mail that their kids don't tell them about.

But I see your point.

If anything I've learned that is quite possible for anyone to do so...

Drop the devkit discussion.

so is it possible to film mod a biped or not?

When I played campaign as a grunt, the campaign save froze my xbax when I put a clean map on my HDD. My guess is that a film mod would not work in this case.

What weapon did you try? I think only needler and plasma pistols work.
edit: wait, you modded the save! i said the FILM, i thought that you couldnt edit the save because the game will not read it once it has been accesed by another device?

If the game cannot replay a video of something it actually did in its engine, why would it be able to replay a video of something it didn't? It would be the exact same thing either way. The place where the biped identifier is, it references the Grunt. If you saved the film from playing it like that, it will be identical to swapping the value. He knows what you said, so your exclamation and emphasis is useless. He gave you an answer to your question.

On SP\Co-op & MP\Forge & Saved Films
