simple questions?

Post by contact8 »

Ok well i was just wondering if there is any way to add dependencies to a unit? I know its possible because i have some maps i downloaded that have way more dependencies than default, but i dont know how to do it. I use hht and hmt.

and the other thing is, is it possible to add weapons to a map that doesnt have it? such as adding a weapon from a mp map to a campaign map.
thanks

Unfortunately I can't answer your question. But I too have noticed very little activity in these forums.

Well thanks for at least replying. It seemed like an easy question to answer. I guess not.

Wow sorry didn't read your second question. But yes you can use say the flamethrower in a solo map. All you need to do is extract the weapon tag to the usual folders. Then open up your solo map in sapien, and I think you click on edit types (somewhere to the top, right above 'mission'). Here you choose weapon, and then selecht your flamethrower.

If you need more detail please tell me so!

Well first off, i dont have sapien and i dont know where to get it. I searched for it and couldnt find it. Second, I use HHT, and in HHt when you open up the map on the right side there is a dependency swapper. All i can do is swap them...is there any way to add more? And for adding weapons, HHT only has an option to "add" tags in the tool dropdown menu.

Go there for HEK, it includes Sapien, Guerilla and Tool. You need a valid halo cd key to install it though. Also you must have halo ce (custom edition!) installed first. But since you're in this forum I assume you already have ce.

PC version is the normal version, but for pc. Custom edition is an edition which lets you customise stuff etc... Halo combat evolved is known as halo xbox. For more info on what is what check the first thread under hek general.
