HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Ok years ago (well before I had a modded xbox) I was playing on XBC, and I joined a game in lockout, and much to my surprise the battle rifles we were using were shooting plasma grenades. This was my first real experience with modding. I am at college now, and I am the only one with a modded xbox. What I really want to do is mod lockout so that the battle rifles simply shoot plasma grenades (because I know this is a mod that somehow can carry over to non-modded boxes in sytem link play). However, here is my problem: I spent over 4 hours last night trying to burn a backup disc so that I could have that one map modded. Eventually I got as far as getting the game to load up, but when I went to choose lockout as the map, it would say that I failed to load it even though I resigned it with the AIOv2 "encryptomatic signature" app. I couldn't get any farther than that. I did end up succeeding in getting the old maps on my hd, and modded lockout easily enough, and even got it loading and working fine. Unfortuneately the only problem cam when another xbox joined and shot the battle rifle, it just looked like normal bullets. You could tell that it WAS actually shooting plasma's because if you shot in a corner you would die, and on my (modded) xbox I could see the plasmas. You just could not see anything special on the unmodded box. What could I have done wrong since everything works except seeing the grenades shoot? I really want this to work, so any help would be amazing!

Many Thanks!

P.S. --- I later tried using the "fix system link" function in Entity, but that didn't do anything...

you need to do a meta swap with either the rocket launcher or the plasma rifle and then change the models and properties back to the BR and then make it shoot what u want and there ya go SLC and others can see what it is shooting any other Q's PM me will be willing to help out


- and the fix system link button does not work for visible projectiles
