Exception!

TommGun · Post by **TommGun** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 11:18 am

Well I have been using HMT for a little while, and now whenever I try to start a multiplayer game or try to join one, Halo closes and this little box comes up that says 'Exception!' Can anyone help me fix it so I can play? (By the way, I have Halo PC trial)

because you skrewed something up in the bloodgluch map that is causing an execption error to occur. download the trial again and back up the map next time.

Thanks but is that all I can do?

yeah, i don't believe there is anyway to recover a map from an exception.

Ok, but how do you back up the file?

you shouldve backed up the map you were working on before you even started modding it...now, you might have to recover the map you were working on from your halo disc.

Oh thats easy thanks! And if something goes wrong just take out the bad one, but the copy in and then copy that to back the new one up?

Ok, I tested it out and it works. BTW, what do you think is better, HMT or Sparkedit?

bcnipod · Post by **bcnipod** » Fri Oct 26, 2007 1:03 pm

I would chose HMT, because Sparkedit is a very buggy program.

You can't really compare the 2 because they are used for different things.

Ok, are you good at HMT?

HMT comes with practice, try very simple things at first (like projectile swapping), then try bigger things like weapon modding.

Swap the META

You know what works better? Dependency swapping so that if the projectile is shared by other weapons it's not changed for those. (example rocket launcher and rocket warthog)
