No Real Alliance!

Post by Shin »

How come whenever I put both covenant and marines in halo, they just sit by each other and shoot at me?

A ghost, a tank, and a warthog full of guys were all different teams, but through injecting, they were both against me, and on their own little alliance.

I already tried changing their bipeds (like human and covenant relations) but nothing works. What would I have to do to make them on seprate teams (and the marines on my team too :wink: )?

Well, actually if that were true then I'd be happy.

I'd be ok with them fighting each other and me, but they just fight me.

Isn't there a way to make them at least fight each other?

maybe, something went wrong, and you know when you kill enough marines they start going after you aswell? well maybe that doing something caused the game to think that you did something bad and now they will try to kill you.

nope, i didn't do nething.

Marines, Covenant, Forerunner machines...

the only thing that transfering them from sp to mp changes is the weapon and fighting style.

Otherwise, they're all the same and just go after me.

In my mod I found that any projectile biped that you fire will be targeted by the bots that were brought in usin the vehcile thing... so if I can get projectile bipeds to have ai I can have my own little mini wars between marines and hutners :twisted: ... If you give hunters the elite commander melee actv they chase you down and beat the shit outta ya... if they see you, or you shoot at them...

woah thats really cool
unfortunately, however, it seems there is no way to get marines to fight with you in MP. when i imported marines (PMI), and placed them thru HHT and swapping them in the vehicle dependencies so they spawn in vehis, they are automatically enemies (the sight turns red).
i tried swapping mc mp with mc fp under bipeds, but the marines still shoot at u like an enemy. It is annoying, though because there must be a way to get them to fight on your side cuz they do it in SP.

change your biped to the sp cyborg biped. the marines dont shoot the sp one in sp. but i dont know maybe they see the mp cyborg as an enemy always. so change to the sp cyborg and see what happens.

u cant just swap the metas tho. i tried it, and it didnt work, it only gave me sp biped traits (which are the same) the bots still saw me as the mp cyborg.

the marines think you betrayed them for some reason im MP if u listen to them all they say is die traitor and things like that nothing like covenant bastards or anything like that
no, every AI has a different sound when they kill things. It's just that when they kill the MC they are programmed to say die traitor.

I think that there is an invisible tag that tells the default side each biped is on. For instance, even if you switch the covenant with the marines, the covenant will still try to kill you. If we can figure out how AI is spawned in SP in much more detail, things like this may be revealed.
