[TUT]Everyone sees projectile Swaps(No Laggy VID-PICTURES!)

Post by Soccerfreak »

Ok well if you have been in a modded game you know that you can only see what you shoot out of a plasma pistol and rocket launcher. Well now they can see what comes out of every weapon(some after affects though)


Alright you will need-
Maps
Insolence
DotHalo

Briefing-As you know you only see what you shoot out of a plasma pistol and rocket launcher. So we are going to duplicate the rocket launcher and paste each new meta over a weapon and then change the weapons models back.



First Open Up Insolence
Image

Next Open your map
Image

Go to the Weapon Tag
Image

Find the rocket Launcher or Plasma Pistol. The pp is duplicated for plasma rifle only.
Image
Image

Duplicate it
Image
The plasma pistol is only duplicated once for the plasma rifle and the RL is duplicated for the Battle Rifle, Needler, Magnum, and Shotgun, i did one too many.

RESULT:
Image

Next open DotHalo
Image

Open Warlock
Image

Go to the weap Tag
Image

Find the RocketLauncher2
Image

Ctrl-c The Meta Offest
Image

Find the MAgnum
Image

Paste the RL meta over the magnum meta
Image

Save Changes
Image

GO to the Dependices window and Change everything back to magnum things. Save changes after you change each one-You may have to open another map to see what the magnum has. This is what I did
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

Next you have to change all the projectile and others to the same as the magnum. For the clip I left it at 10000 because I didnt wanna run out of Ammo. here's the steps I forgot to do the Projectile section but that shouldnt really matter.
Image
Image
Image
Image

IF you do all this for every weapon everyone can see projectile swaps.
Also for the plasma rifle you just copy the pp's meta over the pp.

Thanks for reading if you have any email just post below and ill get to it as soon as I can.

good tutorial with good pics...

im under the impression that every gun with 2 projectile types can do sys link...which includes the carbine...but id suggest enabling the secondary firing type to let it work...

Have you even tried that scottygee, I did once, made it shoot a biped, and no one but me could see it.

As for the tutorial, I already knew it, but the pictures are nice and will definatly help some people.

Halo2 only syncs the projectiles it needs to, this includes the plasma pistol and rocket launcher projectiles, as other clients need to know where the projectile is heading and its location at all times. That's why when you change one of these weapons projectiles, other clients can see this modification.

Nice tut, but no need to bash my video. I tried to contribute to the community in one of the best ways i know how.
I respect the fact that you didn't like my video but I do not like how you kinda dissed it in your topic to the public. Please fix that.

Maybe he didn't mean too, but i see how it's possible to get offended.
He could just have wrote picture tutorial, or something.

Anyhow, i had some problems following this the tutorial. Yeah, i might be dumb, but ill post my problems tomorrow instead. 00:39 am here, its getting late.

yeah man i actually have been doing this for 4 months now its not a big suprise i just never wanted to release it because of all the xbl modders would get a hold of this and get full of their selfs... and i know you would not have wrote this for any other purpose than for xbl and sys link... here we go again with xbl modders cheating with style... (if your wondering why im made its because everytime i played xbox live with my mods off i would always get modded up and to say every one see's projectile swap.. well thats obviously for non modders on xbl and xbc my anger is not against you but to all those noobs giving out softmods for cheaters)- anyway yes this works its simple but a hell of time consuming to change the clip rate firing speed and exetra

Sorry to bump, but is there any chance you could mirror the pictures elswhere? No one has released any mods based on this tutorial, and I want to treat my non modded friends to something fun over XLink.

Upload them to Imageshack...Photobucket reduces quality, has a bandwidth limit, and has a lower file size allowed.

Or Imageviper. I don't understand why people use putfile and stuff instead of ImageShack.us or ImageViper.com
