HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

All right, Ive been working on a new Mod, of which you are the covenant and they are the humans. I can imagine this has been done before, but I have some things that are not working well

For example, in a30, when the units come in on dropships, there aren't any units coming out because when i switch the covenant to humans, the Droppies think that they are human therefore the cov. droppies will not hold them. THEN, I switch around the Cov. dropship with the pelican, still wont hold them.

THEN I keep the actr tag to what it was before (ie: if the unit was a jackal, the unit would then be a Marine, but with jackal as the actr tag)
but that caused the models to slide around with they're arms out to they're sides ( i have to admit, it is pretty funny )
SO, does anyone know what is wrong, and what i can do to fix that?

thanks!

not sure bout the covy drop ship bu i can help u with the jackal prob

you have to make everything at the top ( atcr, actv, and coll) into marine

sooo there ya go


edit: I dont think there is any possible way to get marines into a covie dropship

the jackal thing wasn't the problem, it was just an example of what i did to problem solve

for the dropship try changing the seat name, change it to like w-passenger or something like that.

dont keep the same ACTR, you have to change it or else the animations will be screwy.



What I would do, is a meta swap. Change the marines to elites, and every covie unit into marines, then put the marines on the covenent team and the elites on the human or player team, not sure which one. Then do what I said about the seats, or meta swap the dropship into a pelican, and vice-versa.


There might be some bugs though.

How exactly do i do this? and i already have a plan for the units...

you change the seat name in eschaton.

...or HMT.

is there a tut anywhere? i tried looking for one in the SEARCH but found other crap unrelated

just open the vehicle tag in a tag editor and find the section for seat name. set the combo box to zero, and then change the name to W-driver
