Okay, I've finally got the freezing worked out. Turns out nulling out the scenario sounds doesn't stop freezing. I figured since I saw no sound dependencies to null out in Entity's SBSP Meta Editor, I was good.
Thank you, Dothalo for fixing it.

And everyones favorite camper, waiting in the entrance to the hole in the wall.

Only major bug I have noticed so far is a wall that you can walk through (An invisible wall will cover that nicely) and no sound on the sniper rifle shots.

At least you have one ambient sound in the city playing too.


edit: I have a question on the rules of the map pack. I believe the rocket launcher is too over-powered for this map. But I'd like a heavy weapon. Would it be okay to add an unmoddified fuel rod cannon in its place. Then you could add the fuel rod cannon option to the main menu along with the secondary heavy vehicles (I don't have one but we need the option open). I just think it needs its place in multiplayer. Then you could have a FRC only match or at least have it available.

Also, may I use the SP plasma cannon turret(The grunts shoot every once in a while. Not the one with the shields.) in place of the covenant turret in MP. This one you wouldn't have to add to the mainmenu and I'll keep it unmoddified. Just the MP covenant turret sucks and the SP covenant turret is much better.

Nice. :D Will you add the cannon to the menu so people could still have rocket matches or should I just replace the rocket :?:

Lestat... I'm working on the Mainmenu. If you can tell me how to add the Fuel Rod Cannon as an option in the main menu, then feel free. If anything, you can just put it on the map as a new weapon. It doesn't have to be part of an option.

I could just put it down. But I'd like to have it as a Mainmenu option so people can make custom gametypes with it, like have a FRC only match or only FRC's on the map or something.

The adding new weapons to the mainmenu tutorial is at:

http://forums.halomods.com/viewtopic.ph ... 95&t=34397

And there are two patches for the secondary heavy vehicle at:

http://forums.halomods.com/viewtopic.ph ... 99&t=34673

Make sure you apply both patches from the secondary heavy vehicle thread and do them first. Then add the FRC and do all the rest of the nessecary skinning and string editing.

can you make universal patches? What I mean is can you make a patch that enables the option of having another weapon on a map and be able to use it on any map...

EDIT: um, so anyways...
Known Bugs:
The special objective spawn locations are all wrong
The doors on gametypes other than slayer are buggy
There's no death zone

Much help is needed in debugging!
The patch is 60 mb...
The map is 100 mb.
Apply it to turf.

Test Away!
Thanks!
