NOOB MODDING PROBLEM

Garrote · Post by **Garrote** » Tue Mar 20, 2007 7:44 pm

Halo modding noob here. I need some help. I'll make a mod or something with HMT and then I play on the LAN or internet with some friends. My problem is that THEY can't see the changes to the map I've made. I've seen maps online which I CAN see the mods/changes. How do I do this? I use a PC if that helps.

Sorry for Noob Post,
Garrote

Ok, it is because YOU, the host has a different map than the joiners. So, that means different data traveling from the server (you). They can see some of it, like vehicle placements, weapon and powerup placements, teleports, and weapon ammo modifications. But if you want other people to see it, upload it to FileFront.com, and tell them the link.

Wow be patient maybe? Normally people dont respond within 5 minutes of a post.

The only way to make joiner friendly mods would be to only edit things that sync online. For example, new scenery does not sync, neither do bitmaps.

Great thanks. I used to be part of a different forum which has many more members. That's why I was impatient.

More members than here?
" 47257 "
>_> Halomods has a lot of members...

Like they said, the only way to get them to see added scenery and whatever is to have the download the map and then put it in their "MAPS" folder.
However, I believe there are joiner-friendly mods out there, correct?
