you can't make it destroyable, because it has no 'destroyed pelican' model. you can only make it so it kills everyone in it when it's life has reached 0.

Okay, I've duplicated some turrets for a mod, but there isn't enough scenery to replace them with. I'm putting them in Ice Fields, but I don't want to replace the rocks and trees. I've tried to put them where the grenades and weapons are, but that doesn't work. The turret doesn't even show up in the map when I do that. Is there a way to add them in without replacing something else?

I know it's my own question, but the people at halo-mods.com helped me figure it out. All that's needed to be done is to duplicate scenery, import tags with SE, copy and replace existing scenery with SE, swap the new scenery with the new vehicles with HMT, and move with SE. It's quite easy. I'm ashamed that I didn't think of it.

or you could just dup (in sparky) the turret, import into the scnr, and then just swap...

Yeah, but if you read my original question, I didn't want to do that.

How come?
There is a destroyed Pelican explosion!
And I saw it in a movie in the downloads section(which isn't here anymore...)

That was probably on the Xbox version... with One Shot Kill turned on.

no, that's only well placed explosions and flames.

13. Question: How do I activate the console? (Be able to kick, ban, etc)
Answer: On your desktop, right click on your Halo shortcut (make one if you don't have one) and click properties. Go to Target. In that, there should be something like "[harddrive]/[other directories]/Halo/halo.exe"
All you have to do is put a space at the end, then you can put your flags after that.
The flag to activate the console is -console. To use it in-game, press ~
The 3 basic commands for a non-dedicated server are:
sv_kick (player name/number)
sv_ban (playername/number)
sv_players to retrieve the player numbers.
Note: If you use the playername type of sv_kick, names with spaces need to be in quotations.
PS: for more help with the console in-game, press ~, then TAB

ok this ones a doozy: i got the console to activate in halo, but whenever i put in a command it says "soandso command cannot be executed right now". why the heck not? also does it save teh people that you have banned or does it reset when you close it tdown?

it saves it... you must have typed the command wrong.

no, some commands cant be used at all so it says that, or you used the command wrong, or you are in the wrong part of Halo to use it.

what are all the codes/comands that you can use in the console while playing Halo?

Because I have a console, and it works, but I can only kick and ban people

I would believe that there are many more commands that it recognizes, and it would be really helpful to know what those other commands are.

So can someone please look into this for me!

I would greatly appreciate it

search. There's been many topics on this.

7. Question: How do I rename something?
Answer: Open up your UI.map with Hex Workshop. Then click on find and check "text string" Next search for whatever you want to rename. Ex. "Warthog"
Keep looking until you find something that looks like W.a.r.t.h.o.g. Now replace those letters with whatever you want it to be. To delete, just put a space where the letter is. (The name can't be longer than the original)

the part where he says "you cant make it longer than the original name" is wrong i think. in Iron Forges hog wars mod, isnt there a warthog renamed "covenent warthog"?
