they don't pick up weapons themselves you have to let them spawn with it.

Doom wrote:Actually Trulife, do you happen to know if they will actually be contiuesly moving around the map like a human player once the zones are set up? Instead of standing in one place moving a few steps looking around, moving a few more steps.

i'm pretty sure trulife can get this stuff sorted out. looking at the powerpointpresenation, from which i presume, he made he knows whats going on.

also trulife is there anything mapped out in the scnr 576 yet that you can share with us?

i'm thinking there's some more unknown values in the scnr tag that can make us help making the ai smarter

i never thought you could, just map files, who would of thought our first patching app would help us do the hardest things lol

Well in theory couldnt you just use the trainer, reset your xbox. Copy the still modified xbe and make a patch out of it? JW

Kornman did the AI bit of the trainer, so you'll have to ask him, that would be incredibly handy if we did have a patch though..

It's all done in memory.. so unless you know the address of where the xbe is stored, and how to extract it from a memory dump.. good luck to you..

PPF's (Playstation Patch File's)were origionally made for the playstation 1, but can be used universally.

Ya ppf's weren't created for halo, they just pick up changes at the byte level on any kind of file.

but sppf's and serenity cant be?

edit: im getting a li6ttle scared because i deffinately am not a trainer person, and i have to unless they make the patch.

No, they are filtered to use Halo 2 .map files only, whereas PPF-Studio and some other programs are not..

Prodigy · Post by **Prodigy** » Wed Aug 30, 2006 12:40 pm

PPFs compare the entire files against each other; mapping out all the changes and then storing them in a .ppf. serenitys and sppf's were made specifically for halo2 because they just record changes in the certain parts of the map file.

and friendlyone, xored 2.2 can be found in the usual places as i got it today. once you have put in your apps folder. then put the trainer in the trainers-folder in the xored2.2 folder. also put the config1.5.inc in your folder that has the $c and $u folders. with halo2 on your hdd (and the ai coag on) start up xored on your xbox, choose halo2; enable ai in mp; pres start to launch game..
worked fine for me^^
