ehhhh, hi, if this topic don't belongs to here, i'm sorry...
ok, i've tryied to change the sniper's zoom, and make the vihcles(sorry if i spalled it wrong) faster (like the scorpion)
BUT! when i'm trying to load Blood Gulch(that's the map i've edited) the game quits and open a window of "Gathering Exception Data" or somthing like that... so, my question is:
how the FUCK (sry :|) i'm fixing it to work?
advanced thx...

Well u can get the Expentation Error (sorry if i spelled it wrong) in alot of ways. So I think that if someone answered this it will take a long time for answer (that is just a guess).

1. Open HMT

2. Open The Map You Want

3. Open Weapons

4. Pick The Weapon You Want To Mod

5. A List Of Stuff Will Come Up On The Right

6. There Is A Zoom Box

7. Make It EX. 2 (zoom levels) 10 (zoom level 1) 20 Zoom (zoom level 2)

8. On The Left Side At The Top There Is A Save Button Click It

9. Now Close Weapons

10. Open Vehicles

11. Find The Vehicle You Want And Click It

12. Change It Speed To Your Likings In The Box On The Right

13. When Done, Click Save Like Before

14. The Hit Close Map File On The Bottem Left Hand Area, Then Close HMT

15 Open Halo And Your Map And Enjoy!!!

i don't think you can get a zoom past 8, atleast i haven't been able to

every time i tried it didn't work and i got an exception error(notice how i spelled it too)

ive gotten to 10 only, thats as far as i get that actually does something, anything past that for me seems to be just 10x, and since when did HMT have a save button? it saves automatically

Its not a save button, you do that every time you change somehting before you move to the next item. all the button does is close the .map file, but not the program. handy.

also, i got the expectation error [lol] last night with a pistol. it was ridiculous. Ive only seen the error happen when modding zooms. thats all. dont go past 10, is all i have to say. you ll never need it. and btw, YES that mod idea has been made and YES 20x is ridiculously unnecessary!!! lol may 14 or 15 MAX if it was even possible.

you get an exception error when halo can't process the meta correctly. It's like a bug in a script. try saving some actv meta and injecting it into a projectile. hit save and hmt3 will lock up. load the map and U've created an exception. They also happen when too many things appear(like 20000 decals for a needler round hole, actually did this once.)
