The Maw final run

Post by Dominatr »

Is there any way to change the time limit at the end of The Maw where you drive the Warthog through a maze thirty-thousand times the size of the ship? The Flood, Covenant and explosions are enough, don't want to race time too

Oh come on. The only thing you need to worry about is if it flips. It's easy, really. Just don't stop when you reach Echo 419, that'll save you about 4 or 5 seconds. And an easy way to get past the last stretch where you walk, is go outside the barrier.

Not exsctly but you said it can't be done. Someone might find out a way soon though.

Hmm... Just brainstorming here, would it be possible to look up the script commands through hexing? I know the timer commands, I think I've seen them laying around somewhere...

Use a program call "T-Search". It's amazing at searching for values... for example, I can get ANY score in pinball because I do a search for my current score... score some more... then search for my new score inside of those scores. I know it's possible for things like ammo but I haven't tried it with timers...

yeah, but t-search finds memmory addresses and modifies them, not actual hex values within a file. Tsearch is useless in Halo because halo uses a dynamic memmory allocation system so it only uses the ram it needs. The downside of this means that simply changing or freezing a single memmory adress (so you want infinite pistol shots) will do no good because the next time it references that data, it may have been assigned a different memmory address.

It would be easier if you extract the scenario tag that contains The Maw timer and then hex it.

bud, you can't PMI a script.... why does everyone use PMI as the term for adding anything to a map? does anyone even know what it actually STANDS for?

You seriously have to wonder that sometimes. Heck, up until recently, I thought RaVn had no idea how to mod anymore.
