correct
OK, Thank you, and your not releasing it until CFW comes out so no one mods on XBL?

Nope.

Ok lets say anthony releases it, We can all now resign gamesaves, now what If I discover achievement points location I can magically end up giving myself 1000g for each game I play? Would that be bad? Yes I think so...

Didnt say resigner did I?

CFW or hybrid 360 can run unsigned files (eg. Anthony's default.xex). Now go read my post and see why I asked him. Thank You

Heres what I have so far on Forge maps...

Most strings are Unicode but the descriptions are not.

Haven't checked yet but The game types are most likely structured like this as well.

Code: Select all

    public struct ForgeMap
    {
        public blfHeader blfHead;
        public chdrHeader chdrHead;
        public mapvHeader mapvHead;
    }

    public struct blfHeader
    {
        public string _blf;
        public int HeaerLength;
        public byte[] Unk1;
    }

    public struct chdrHeader
    {
        public string chdr;
        public int HeaderLength;
        byte[] Unk1;
        public char[] MapName; 
        public byte[] Unk2; 
        public string Description;
        public byte[] Unk3; 
        public char[] GamerTag; 
        byte[] Unk4; 
    }

    public struct mapvHeader
    {
        public string mapv; //Len4
        public byte[] Unk1; //Len20
        public char[] MapName;
        public byte[] Unk2; //Len6
        public string Description;
        public byte[] Unk3;
        public char[] GamerTag;
    }

You too.

And Shade.

Anthony · Post by **Anthony** » Sun Mar 02, 2008 2:05 pm

but you must not forget Shade because without him there would not even be close to as much stuff as we have now

Post updated.. Supermodder911 you're going have to tell me the sixes of all your byte[] and char[] arrays before I can add them too.

Come on, it's not my problem, bungie let people host mods,then don't quote the link...., and we are talking about modding halo 3 here, i have just played that forge gametype so bungie is not gonna ban all the people who's gonna play it because everyone wants to play it, if bungie doesn't like it they will remove it but tha guys has a lot of mods on his file share.

neodos edited his post so the link is not there anymore...yet you quoted it, so in reality you aren't helping keep it on the down low.
