Now what do you mean by lens distortion. Do you mean like camera FOV and stuff? Or model and texture LOD?

err, when i load the trainer (which i dl'ed this morning) it doesn't activate any of the options. i have the file in tdata, i disabled the update, and i have somewhat of a brain so im a lil confused here...

would it be possible, to have a 2nd "skullmode" just like as in dev-mode.
so that you can toggle the skulleffects ingame. you could only run 1 mode at a time due to the buttoncombo's.
anyway toggle-able skull effects would be nice, and maybe there is a value in the XBE also for enabling the skull effects in multiplayer that'd be pretty sweet.

the skull effects do work in mp(thats what I heard)
they don't do the same things that they do in sp, but they do edit mp in some ways(I've heard)
An example(not tested just gossip I heard): is that if you enable the black eye skull then it stops snowing in lockout.

i want to get those crazy headshot's of gruntbirtday party in multiplayer that'd be neat. but then again i'm only suggesting

It's true. I tested that out multiple times. I wonder why lockout's snow disappears though. So far, thats the only known effect the SP skulls have on MP. I'd search for it in the map files, but I haven't clue where I would even look.

Anyways, I've tested the trainer on around 17 xboxs (various versions 1.0 - 1.6) and they all run the trainer just fine. Heh, I also found out that you can mess with the main menu camera and look around the mainmenu.map BSP. Switch to deadcam (back+d-pad left) then devcam (back+d-pad right) and you will be able to look around the main menu BSP easily.

Also, I didn't see this posted, so I thought I'd mention it. If you have two controllers plugged in, player 2 will (sometimes) gain control of the trainer's features, but it will affect player 1. For example, player 2 presses back+d-pad down to enable 3rd person, but it is enabled instead for player 1. Also, player 2 can teleport player 1, but when devcam is activated (by player 2), player 1 will be able to move the camera, but player 2 will have to press B+d-pad up to teleport player 1 to the camera's coordinates.

i found out that you can teleport other players that joined your host by heavily pressing the teleport button combo ...
i really annoyed this kid, he wanted to play wiv my mods but he started crying coz i couldnt stop teleporting them all xD

I didn't make this for people to fool around with on xbc, maybe the next build will disable syslinking all together...

But that means no AI on xbc.

Is there an alternative to the Uberscreenshot Capture tool because everytime i try to load the application it gives me an instant error..

Okay, so ive tried to load the trainer but in XBMC when i try run the game with the trainer on nothing happens, i click and nothing. What could be the problem, is it the fact i have the PAL version of halo 2 or doesent that matter?

xbox7887 · Post by **xbox7887** » Sun Sep 03, 2006 3:49 pm

The problem is that you're using XBMC to run trainers instead of the xored v2.2 launcher specified in the main post.

Ohhh, whoops, i'll get that done tomorrow as its late.

Cheers

Hey I'm wondering why when you decrease game speed, the character animations and motions stutter as (I assume) you slow down FPS. Is there a fix to this so that character movement and animation stays smooth even as the game speed is decreased? I was really hoping to be able to use this slow-mo feature in a really tight film I'm producing...

Yeah Kornman00 gave me some code to modify the fps that I never got around to implementing...you might see something for it in the next version.

K guys i am a dumbass i got xored and yelo in the right places ( i think) and when i hit A while in xored to select halo2 then reboot and run halo2 no commands work and yest AU is disabled

MilyardoX2 · Post by **MilyardoX2** » Mon Sep 04, 2006 12:32 am

I love your Yelo Trainer it is great but I really think u should leave the slc in for ai. we r going to really need it for when the ai starts coming. or maybe just put a trainer out for disable AU and the cinematic LODs and AI in MP. that would be sweet. then no one would cheat. but also wut about movie making? is there any way u could make an option for just movie(like a disable hud button and a film button) I'm just puting in my 2 cents for ideas.

It would be unbelievably kickass if there's a way to get the engine to interpolate the frames when the speed is low.

I've done some more testing, and when I use the trainer, Lockout refuses to load. Strangely, when I also tested Halo 2 by launching it off the hard drive (i.e. not via Xored) the trainer also started automatically. And when I tested the game from the DVD drive (in modded mode), it didn't seem to detect the downloadable content and autoupdate (though Lockout did load when I wasn't using the trainer) ...

In retail mode, things work perfectly.

Weird, to say the least.

Please, Xbox, if theres one thing you should do in the next version, it's please allow it to work in System Link. I was playing with it yesterday and it's so much fun

I would go in a hog' with someone, then go into flycam, and then teleport to co-ordinate and then the hog would teleport to that area with the passenger
