HELP W/ 2 THINGS!!

TotalEclipse · Post by **TotalEclipse** » Tue Jul 25, 2006 3:03 pm

1st thing:
Everyone sees projectile swaps. I am at the part where you need to switch all the dependancies back to normal. The problem is there isn't enough chunks and dependencies to switch. So how do I switch everyting back to normal if there arn't enough chunks and dependancies?!!

2nd thing:
Add a 2nd projectile to any weapon. When I try to clone a chunk with entity, it gives me an error. How can I clone a chunk with entity successfully to add a 2nd projectile?

Did you remember to past the original weapon meta over your weapon first?

no, I was following a tutorial from halo-strike.com which became illegal today. The tutorial just said duplicate the pp/rl and replace the offsets. So that means you have a duplicate of the rl. copy the offset, go to magnum, paste the offset. save, and move on to the next one. Do you mean take the magnums offset and paste it over the rocket launcher duplicate. There are so many tutorials on every1 sees projectile swaps and they are always a little different.

http://files.halomods.com/viewtopic.php ... ta+weapons Use this tut and it has the metas already done so all you have to do is duplicate plasma pistols and rockets and you just meta fake and inject the meta that is in the tutorial.

does it work? the answer is a yes, right. Everyone says yes. Have you done it your self? did it work for u?

EDIT: wait, i tried this one, the exact same one on a different site. Didn't work. Do I have to download their metas or can I just get my back up copy, extract the metas to a folder, replace the offsets, and inject the metas in the duplicate?

you did not make any sense, but if its in the tut section it should work, especaly coming from the flying dutchmen

Instead of downloading the offsets, can I bring up my back up of a map I want to mod, extract the metas to a folder, and use those metas instead of the ones being provided to me?

the metas you get in that tut are the metas you put over the duplitated pistols or rockets it has everything back to their original states for the most part.

but if I use metas from an unmodded version of the map, will it still work?

you have to modify the duplitated pistols meta which is already done for you in the tut i posted earlier, you can't modify the old meta for the guns it will freeze or not work.

now I need help on thing 2: the 2nd projectile. Everytime I try to clone a trigger, I get an error.

I'm pretty sure you can only clone trigger chunks with GG's cloner. I've tried with Entity as well, and it didn't work, and I think I saw somebody else posting saying it can't be done in Entity.

when I follow the 2nd projectile tut, it has more options than I have. That means I need new plugins, right?
