gathering exception data?!?!?!?

[iamjoel451]

ok, im new to modding, and i just read sir zyn's hex editing tutorial.
now, when i try to start halo, i get this message thet there is an exception, and when the message goes away, a window comes up saying halo had an error and was forced to close.....
WTF!?!?!? how can i fix this/avoid it in the future?

It means you messed up along the way, and Halo is confused by the data. You probably just put something in the wrong place on accident.

No problem...and for "checking for the 15th time", welcome to Hex, and generally, modding.

[iamjoel451]

crap.... that didnt work, i checked everything twice again, and i even started over and replace the .map file, but it's still not working. anything else that might be wrong?

[Demonic Spartan]

Hm....the version of Hex Editor you have, possibly? Is it the one that you are recommended to use?

[iamjoel451]

dunno, ill check. i clicked on the link, and then just got the newest version....

[iamjoel451]

there wasnt a recommended on in the tutorial, and the version i got is the only one that will work in xp, so i dont think that's the problem.

Sir Zyn said Hex Workshop...but I'm not nessisarily good with Hex, I'm just troubleshooting with the basic issues that could causing your problem...

[iamjoel451]

yeah, i got hex workshop v4.2
and thanks for trying, like i said im new, but once i figure something out, ill remeber it, theres just that tiny problem of figuring it out...
