No, Halo Map Tools (HMT) allows you to extract and inject all sorts of different resources from the .map files.

Will be for Halo xBox AND Halo PC

You will be able to completely 99% or 100% (almost) design your own maps

Tons of new editible stuff

Previewing of models is not working, the problem has been found, and to fix the problem they have to and are re coding the whole thing in C++ instead of Visual Basic

But in the end it'll be worth all the waiting

QUOTE

I just thought of a cool map idea. Flatten Blood Gulch and retexture it so it looks like streets/parking lots. Make the walls look like skyscrapers or something. Then replace Warthogs with motorcycles. Motorcycles that have guns mounted on the front. Primary fire would shoot a chain gun or something while secondary fire either drops a grenade or maybe it could shoot a homing rocket foward with a short life span.

Me like your idea,  make mouth water!!

HMTv3 beta testers,  is somethin like this possible?

im sure we could get something pretty close, but getting motor cycles would be hard, but until the final version comes out it would be pretty hard

I dont think u can edit the actual LEVEL yet, can you with HMT3?  I dont think were gona be able to do it until he releases another beta, unless i missed somethign in it

This will be stuper fucking easy to do once full version comes out

But as of now it woudl still be hard

We have the issues of only being able to inject very small files and even not some at all, and not enougth extra stuff yet that this woudl be easy

But once he releases a future beta that has there options or close to these, we'll make it for you

EDIT: another cool new feature is you can change the speed of the bullet, the bullet spread (how much accuracy they have), and a ton of new stuff

it could be done, either u download a model off the internet and try to inject it over different vehicles, or extract a vehicle and edit it to make it look like the 747

i could try later but right now its really hard to inject edited models, and  still need to find all the right programs, once i do i will try to make it, and right now with only a beta version of HMT 3, the quality of objects have to be toned down ALOT, so its hard to inject

Title: Wheres Hmt
Post by: spgurley on November 25, 2003, 04:51:00 PM

I tried to inject a plane, but its too big a file for even injecting over banshee or wraith

We cant do this until level re building is done


And here's the Assult Rifle Model for people to mess around with.
Rar File
Zip File

Is it gonna be possible to edit what the weapon HUDs look like? So for this battle rifle thing on halo mods you could make the battle rifle HUD?

I've added huge wings to the pelican, made the hogs LAAG twice as long, made it 9 times as fast, made it so I jump 16 times higher than Super Jump can make you, and made hunters have blades on their back with extended fuel rod guns. This beta is awesome as is! Even though there are a few bugs here and there. For example, it won't let me load AotCR, and when you try to switch back to the main Bitmap menu after viewing the submenu, you get an error.

All in all, its looking great guys, keep it up!
