I'm glad I could help in some way. heh
Halo modding is not over, and in my opinion it probably never will, at least for me.
I love Halo. It is my all time favorite game and I have played it more than any other game, ever. Now that I can hack it the replay value just keeps increasing.
Halo 2 will probably consume a lot of my attention, but I'll never forget Halo.
Hell, I still play Doom...and I still will when Doom3 comes out.
We still have many things to do to Halo. Much fun hacking. hehe
Sooooo much cool shit has been done by everyone since we started modding, but there's still so much cool shit to do.
Obviously we are on the verge of anyone being able to import new BSPs.
Talin64 and I are extremely close to modifying the BSP by hand (unless we find a programmer who's not doing anything *wink wink*)...i.e. landscape modification!! (Barring any unforseen problems you can expect at least a proof-of-concept mod soon, from either, or both, of us.)
When the HEK comes out so many things will become clear to us, & it'll only be a matter of time before we're playing completely custom maps.
Anyway, that's what I think.
Thanks for having the guts to come back after you just left.
We need to keep all the good Xbox hackers we can.
