k v0.4 released
start the testing
and find all the bugs you can
then v0.5 will be last bug fix
and then v0.6 (the first beta) can have much new stuff
like the flying stuff

[wongtong2g]

haha awesome bro - will start right now

btw, perhaps a inbuilt ppf patcher for ppl who want to take patches from this thread and put it in a seperate folder for easy patching / updates would be a good idea

either way, great work bro - about to try it out

[XBOX War3z]

found this site http://www.paradogs.com/pdx_ppf3.htm
gonna look into that and gonna try to get that working on xbox

Awesome.  That's what I was looking at too.  I would love to see that on XBOX because if I ever get my internet up again I am going to start releasing hacks as PPF patches.  Maybe I can line someone up to convert them to PAL and other maps too.

[wongtong2g]

Wow! thank you so much xbox warez i really appreciate it

really looking forward to the next version!

im gonna try out linkplay soon using the same exact hacked caches to see if thats possible - if it works, i think i have a few constructive suggestions  

btw - anyone tried linkplay yet? didnt find anything on search

Hey XBOX War3z: Is there a way to use Hce without having to rip Halo to the Xbox HD? I have the last version of Hce installed on my HD, but it does load. I looked at the halo.cfg and it looks like the only options are e: or f: drives.   Can I set it up to load Halo off the DVD? Would the cfg file look like this: D Halo default.xbe

You could always just turn off the Xbox after saving the changes, then boot with Halo in the drive.

In order to use flying Ghosts and warthogs in Halo Cache editor v0.4 simply copy the above code into a text document and call it bloodgultch.ini and replace the file in the maps folder with it.

In order to allow the vehicles to fly go to the ghost no hover or warthog no hover page and select each option to equal itself ( double hit A on each option) to turn the flying off go to vehicle standard and do the same on those pages

 Great work xboxwar3z saving works fine for me now

[Pista]

Gona try it...  v0.2 just gave me a blank screen

[cexe]

quik comment..

there are currently two places to get ppfs right?

www.elite-modz.com

and www.xbox-wired.com

please let us know if there are any other.   i will have some of my patches up soon...

[GOD_]

is there any way to get cyborgs as projectiles in the cache editor?

[wongtong2g]

k, a suggestion for the next next version

would it be possible to add a feature such that

1. on two to four xbox's, everyone selects lanplay and inputs the options they want, wait for the cache to save and then exit
2. a person modifies the cache they want on HCE, which automatically detects the file as supporting lanplay
3. after saving, HCE uses limited ftp features to modify the cache on the other connected xboxs to exactly match the original one and therefore support lanplay

This, of course, is assuming what others have said about how lanplay should work withthe same exact modified cache files, but ive yet to find someone who tested it

[tempchicken]

I've done it.  We had 4 boxes hooked together and I modded the cache on so that there were about 40 warthogs in blood gulch.  I replaced all of the weapons with warthogs as well which has the effect of making there be no weapons in the game.  The only way to kill people was to run them over.  You can't even melee someone since you don't have a weapon.  I set up a custom game called "Jeep Joust".  It was first one to 10 kills, every man for himself, all vehicles (Which had all been changed to Warthogs), respawn immediately.  I ftped this cache file to all 4 boxes and hosted a system link game on the one where I had the "Jeep Joust" set up.  We had 12 people spread across the 4 boxes.  I thought that the 40 hogs would cause bad frame rates, but it was actually pretty good.  It was probably the most fun of any game I've played.  (And I've done a lot of system link games).  You would have to make someone else roll and then run them over before they could grab another jeep (and there were a lot around to grab).  I highly recommend trying this.  Maybe I'll put together a patch for it.  We also tried a variation of this with teams, which was also fun, but "Jeep Joust" definitely took the cake.

[rob1309]

there a way to edit or disassemble ppf patches so i can just add some things into hce map files?
if so, how?

[rob1309]

yes me loves it dearly
now only if could modify the ini files via xbox also, would be perfect
