Fixing your plasma cannon model meta

Post by EchoRanger449 »

If you imported your own or someone else's plasma cannon model, you may have noticed that if you try and access the tab later, you'll get a HMT error.

To fix this*, go to your original (unmodded) map and save the metas (do not check the "recursively" box) with halo mapping tools AND halo hacker tools. These two metas are NOT the same.

Also, before you close HHT, copy down or "print screen" all the dependencies for the plasma cannon model.

1.)Go to your modded map and open it with HHT. Find the plasma cannon model and inject the meta.

2.)Go to HTM and do the same.

3.) Re-open HHT and change all the dependencies for the model to the ones you copied down earlier (they should be all nulled out beforehand)

I hope this helps- it gave me another chance to put a good model for the plasma cannon in.

To avoid needing this tutorial in the first place, make sure you back up your map prior to importing a new model (even importing the original model will cause this error).

*keep in mind there may be a shorter way, but this way DOES work if I remember right.
