ATV Found yet?

scynide · Post by **scynide** » Thu May 25, 2006 4:44 pm

One of my friends (nonmodder) was telling me that Bungie said that the ATV is still somewhere inside of Halo 2. I know that all of the skull names are written in the Halo 2 maps like he said Bungie said, but I haven't found much on the ATV. If it had been found it would be out as a hugely liked mod. The only thing I have found is that it was going to be called, Copied from Hex Editor:<mongoose_atvs>. It seems that that was going to be an option to turn on that vehicle in the vehicles selectable. If you are wondering, I was looking at text within the maps with a Hex editor. If anything else has been found about the ATV post what you know. Thanx.

try opening up campaign maps in alias boss and looking through sayings (i think thats what its called, maybe it's bots :/)

i say it's not in there, but you never know...

also once i found a thing called "marine grenade launcher", i wonder what that is

Ya. I will try it. I found a weapon called a Desintigrator (maybe misspelled) and a Sentinel Grenade Launcher

Edit: Wait! what the hell is alias boss?

i have that app, its an app for changing text as far as i know...

i use it for changing "Press X to pickup Rocket Launcher" to "Press X to Pickup Noob Canon" and so on.

but it might have other features that im unaware of.

The sentinel grenade launcher was used by that big sentinel thing with the shields. Can't remember whether it's the aggressor or enforcer.
If the mongoose were there it would've been found by now.
I'm not voting in your poll because it's missing an option: Yes, if Snaku makes it for us.

lol i cant imagine how you would make a atv but knowing you...

Thanks. I found Alius Bos. It is a really awsome program considering I have been doing it all through hex. Is there a way too add a whole new string with this program or do I have to do it in hex?

First of all, u did not spell correctally! Try spelling right so people can find what they need. Second of all, it says right there with the topic that you can't open Campaign maps with it. Have u ever tried? Apperantly not. Thanks for telling me about the program though. Hope I did not sound too rude.

If you can, please answer my question above my quote of tbone. ^^^

And...

If I could edit my poll I would add this option in.

It would be really cool If you could work on making the atv. I would love u forever, but in a non homosexual way. lol. And I think there was a Halo CE map called Hypothermia that was suposed to have the ATV in it. I saw some pics, but did not know if I should believe it.

I tried editing my first post in this topic and there was no option to edit the poll. I am i doing something wrong?

Edit: Maybe it is because people have alredy voted on it.

if it were there, it would be under vehicles.

Bungie said they left out pretty much anything they didnt use to save space, unlike halo 1. (unless it was too small to make a difference.)

you could delete it and make a new 1(i think)

scynide · Post by **scynide** » Fri May 26, 2006 10:05 pm

Nah. Anyways I haven't found anything else. Hopefully snaku will get board and make it. That would be Godly.

dazzajay · Post by **dazzajay** » Fri May 26, 2006 11:28 pm

does anyone think that they can make one? im guessing it wont be too hard exept for modeling, and texturing....

i noticed something on the Halo 2 LE dvd, it sounded just like a Warthog, had 4WS, just like the hog, and even had a engine per wheel, just like the hog.... so if somone is good enough at modeling, then they could turn the jeep into it?

(if you have a close look you will see what im on about)

Well to say I could actually make THE atv was an exaggeration. Without proper model injection, it wouldn't really be possible at the moment. I could, however, make AN atv, I suppose, through a similar process to my motorcycle. Some progress has been made on phmo, so that could probably be fixed as well... or at least fixed enough (wouldn't be perfect). The main problem would be finding a way to have MC able to be shot, since he'd be down inside the warthog's bullet collision and not much progress has been made on coll yet.

I did a little research on Hypothermia. It seems a beta version was released, but the full was not because people were leaking the updated versions, and KiLLa got tired of modding Halo after that. This is not a leaked version. This is one of the few releases out there that he actually released. http://files.filefront.com/hypothermia_ ... einfo.html
Please download and test. My Halo CE does not work, but my Halo PC does. I don't know why. I have looked into this map with DotHalo, but no other programs I have are able to open this map. I saw that the mongoose was in there. I don't know if it was made by hand or what, but if we could extract it we could use it. If you figure out how to get the model out of the map please post how. Thanks.

The problem is that the only way we can currently inject models is through darkmatter, which doesn't allow for proper uv-mapping, so texturing it would be impossible.

scynide · Post by **scynide** » Wed May 31, 2006 7:45 am

Thats true. I forgot about that. I am sort of a noob, but I have learned quiet a bit since i started. Did you test Hypothermia? Was the Mongoose driveable with everything proper? Anyways snaku if you can extract it I would still like to know how. The model would be cool to have for later. If we ever figure out how to do everything with Halo 2 that we can with Halo, (slow progress, but maybe eventually. Look at the progress of Entity) we could do it some day. Thanks for all you knoledge on this one snaku.

Do you think the ATV will ever make it into Halo 2?
