HMT Help! :(

[brandon123]

I just followed the tut that came with HMT, and I did everything right, I just need to know, where does the AOTCR MP map go? It's not b40 in the halo maps file, or carousel.map in the build folder, or carousel.map.rebuild.map in the builf folder. I can't find it.

BTW, I made a pistol shoot rockets, and I'm having 2 problems.

1: When I start halo and play it, it minuses and says "EXCEPTION!"!
WTF does that mean?

2: Do I go to multiplayer or SP to test the pistol? I edited it's meta
in Blood Gulch.

1. exception means that you got an error.
2. if u modded bg, its a mp map, so u test it in mp.

Ok, Thanks

It still doesn't work. It lets me go all the way to selecting my level, and then it says exception! GATHERING EXCEPTION DATA... Why wont it work. In HMT, I took the projectile needler/needle/, NOT needler/needle_mp/ and put its meta into the warthog/bullet meta. Then I edited values etc. Next I put rocket meta into the pistol/pistol/ meta. IT WONT WORK, WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG!

OK, sounds like your trying to get the warthog gun firing needles and the pistol firing rockets. Start with a clean, unmodded copy of your map. (Delete your corrupted one.)

Open the map in HMT

Go to the [Proj]Projectiles tag
select Weapons\needler\needle
copy its meta value in the box up top

Now select Vehicles\Warthog\bullet in the same list
Paste your needle meta value we copied just now into the box over the
warthog bullet value

Click SAVE - The save button over on the right hand side, not the save
meta button.

Now still in the [proj] projectiles tag
select Weapons\Rocket Launcher\rocket
copy its meta value in the box up top

Now select Weapons \pistol\bullet in the same list
Paste your rocket meta value we copied into the box over the pistol bullet
value.

CLick SAVE.

Try running this before making any further changes.

Hope this helps get you started

Since he's trying to get the Needler ammo into the warthog Gauss Rifle on mp, wouldn't it make sense to swap the gauss with needler/needle/mp ? The needler/needle is its meta for single player. Thats usually what I do when I swap projectiles. Correspond with sp//mp.

[Danke]

He's just doing normal warthog. And I've never had problems with using the normal needler. I think the homing number is the only real difference there.
