using mods

Post by rivaldi »

Hi, i just started using the halo mods from here but i had a few questions on how exactly to use them. I tried searching but couldn't find this anywhere, so if it is already a post just tell me. I know when downloading a map mod you just have to replace the file with the one you downloaded, but i have no clue what to do for the rest. Example:I downloaded the "panther 50 cal" gun but i have no idea where to put the two files.
Thanks
M

My first piece of advice is piss mac off as much as possible so he'll try and tell everyone how "leet" he is.

You're going to be flamed for this topic, because this topic is a sticky on the very first page of topics. This tells you how to use ppfs. You'll need Halo Map Tools for skins and models, and for making your own simple mods. You'll also want PPF-O-Matic or Helpful Halo Hacking Tool (I call it H3T) for applying the ppfs. For most other mods, it's as simple as replacing the proper map file in your Halo maps folder. Just make sure you always make backups of everything.

To use that Panther .50 cal, which, if I'm not mistaken, is a new sniper rifle model, you need to inject the model with HMT. Find the sniper model and fp sniper model and simply input the new files.
