so I was wondering if there are any people here interessed in making something
here's a template with the details
post your pictures/questions here
[edit]
if you want you can also create a cool logo at top
and credits, I'll change the code so it doesn't look stupid
Post by: XBOX War3z on September 05, 2003, 04:04:00 AM
maybe we'll release a v0.4.6 version or something, also for the too many patches bugs etc

you can easily convert gif to jpg, or do you want moving pictures or transparent stuff?

Great job on HCE. What a cool program!
I enjoy Scorpion shells for bullets immensely.
The PPF tool works great, too.
I have a few suggestions.
You may have already gotten this one.
Allow for longer filenames. I had HCE lock up severel times when I tried to apply a PPF that had a long filename. Once I shortened the name, it accepted it.
Allow for longer item names in the ini files. If they are longer than would fit on the column on screen, just truncate the displayed name.
The grey mask behing the PPF listing is too small. If you have 10 PPFs, the mask
does not cover the ones near the bottom of the list so they are harder to read.
Are you making the menus and text colors user configurable? That might be cool.
Put a button legend at the top, or bottom of the screen, or on a menu so it's still
viewable after loading a map. I pretty much memorized them, but I think it would be helpful.
Just some suggestions. Keep up the great work.

first of all thx
we'll fix the long filename patches
hmm yea we can do that truncate long items
it now scrolls through your patches, it shows 5-6 but when you go down you can see the rest
you can change the colors in skin.ini
yea that would be cool

I used a capture from the original Halo 2 demo. Try to guess what it originally was befor I photoshopped it to what you see now.
Is this a good start? Because it is. I'll change it to your likeing. Just let me know what the problem areas are. If you'd like it another color scheme, if you want something totally different, if you want a pic of Master Cheif in it. What ever.
P.s. thanks for the great app!

| xbox wa3z are you working on anything to allow long code changes in one click ( flying vehicles) rather than the crappy select 9 objects that i did |
yea we're trying that
also the wepeditor stuff, so seperate page where you select the weapon and then you can set zoom, max ammo, etc
also we're adding manual editing, you just set the offset, the new value and it changes it in the cache
it'll let you set like in boXplorer (the filerenaming stuff)
and some bugs are fixed and the background is almost working

Post by: onlyme on September 07, 2003, 01:48:00 PM
my latest bloodgulch-p.ini file has these features
flying - warthog,ghost,scorpion
improvable sniper rifle zooms
climb/don't climb
full projectiles list
full weapons list
2 texture pages including ability to apply wheels on fire and to change sky to night etc
also able to make ghosts look like - ghost, rock, invisable and a rocket launcher (made mate laugh as the ghost bolt comes from the crotch of the cyborg)
Any suggestions on what else to add before i upload?

Post by: XBOX War3z on September 07, 2003, 10:05:00 PM
I'll look into the skinning stuff
maybe make the skin.ini better
so you can select background, disable some stuff (the title printing), some rectangles,...
don't think it's that needed to select different skins right?

) to [email protected] and I'll make a rar with a xpr and skin.iniif you want any special colors in skin.ini just lemme know, or take a look for yourself

| Ok, So here comes the "dumb" question in this thread.. hehe .. I tried it the other day, it loaded fine, but I think I am missing sumthin here. Do I need to run Halo from HDD, or can I still run my original DVD copy? Is that what the *.cfg is for? I tried readin the NFO, but not to complain(cause it looks sweet) but the instructions weren't real detailed. __Blaz0__ |
yea I know, I'm not good at explaining stuff
well first of all only the cache is required so you can run from hdd or dvd
halo.cfg allows you to tell the path to halo
somebody made tutorial but it's not on x-s yet

yup don't think either and as you see the trainer has only 10 options what are you gonna ingame change? swap 10 projectiles? and the trainer is ingame code it just opens it
