HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Any research on gamesave modding been conducted yet?

I haven't bought the game due to my 360 being dead, and paying 60$ for something I won't even enjoy.

What's the point of posting that in this thread?
As far as I see, he didn't ask if grimdoomer was making gamesave mods.

I would like to help but I don't have a working 360 nor do I have the game. Is that so wrong to tell him that? I think not.

I just mean like, what's the point of posting it? Should every member who doesn't have a 360 or the game post saying that? It's not done by process of elimination. If you can't assist, and you have no plans to ever do so, there's no reason to post.

Hey, I don't have the game, and I will never buy it, but I'm posting here anyways, even though it doesn't help anyone to say this.

ye jus want u guys to kno im not gonna research halowars, i dont like it.

Stop spamming. Everybody. Don't post if you're not responding to the original purpose of the thread.

I have the game and I've dumped it to an ISO, I've been looking at the actual game files, but not the gamesaves yet. What would there be to mod though, what are you looking to accomplish?

make like 30 ghosts then swap them for Scarabs...

But you couldn't, you can't save games like that. The savegame, AFAIK, only works for between levels, there's no saving in the middle of a level, and especially not a skirmish level. So really, other than unlocking all the levels or something, I can't see what would be gained from modding a gamesave.

Skulls, black boxes, unlock all levels, and so on. More then enough for a reason to edit them. Was your comment meant to discourage us?

Nope, just wanted to know. I more than anyone know what it's like to do something just to do it, just so you can say you figured it out.

you can save ingame.

Yeah. You can save in game, and then resume either right where you were, or just a few steps back. But you keep the units you had.

You can save during Campaign or Skirmish? Or both?

only campagin.

@Grunt , Ima look into this I think it'll be a matter of hexing unique amounts like 33 warthogs to 100

Since the gamesave is not copyrighted material, you can upload it somewhere and post a link here. If you do, I might be able to help you out more. But you will have to post specifics like how many mariens and worthogs where alive at the moment of saving.

That would be difficult, grim, since you might know your own population, but you don't know your enemies...however, I will see if I can get a gamesave up, I'll just null out the profile and device ID with 0's.

here is a save my friend lewie made.
