Halo PC Tut #1 --- Jumping High

[Jay]

Ok this is one of the first things you'll want to learn how to do with modding Halo PC. First off make shure you've download HMT v3.5 with the 64 pluggins from my modding toolkit.

Here's the link if you haven't done so already.

Step 1: Open up HMT.


Step 2: Navigate to the map you want to do this on by going to File> Open> and then wherever you saved the game to and then into the maps folder then hit Open, I picked sidewinder.


Step 3: In the Resource Browser go to the [Bipd] tag and open it, you should see 2 tags listed below it.


Step 4: Now open up the tag called "characters\cyborg_mp\cyborg_mp".


Step 5: Scroll down to the bottom in the box on the right hand side and near the bottom you should see a box labeled "Jump Velocity".


Step 6: Change the number in that box to 0.50, you can experiment with this but I like to keep it around 0.50.


Step 7: Scroll back up to the top and look for a little checkbox titled "Immune to Fall Damage", check that one off so you don't get killed from the fall damage.


Step 8: All that's left to do now is in the top left box hit the button titled "Save" and then the "Close Map File" button in the bottom left corner and your done!


Have fun jumping high, we'll be learning how to run fast in the next tutorial.

Your Welcome for the edit...lol

[Jay]

Yea thanks.

[Dot]

Lol this is a good tut! Very informative....I tried it and it worked perfect but i couldnt get any of the other maps to jump high?!? o well, i dont play much anyways... Just testing your results.

[Jay]

What do you meen doesn't work on any of the other maps??? Will it load the maps if so then chances are you selected "characters\cyborg\cyborg" and not "characters\cyborg_mp\cyborg_mp".

you should use my flying. Its alot better to control

[Jay]

This is a basic tut nothing advanced, once i've done all the basics all make one with things on like how to create a "flying affect" etc which is still pretty simple and easy to do.

we should make a halo pc modding team

[Jay]

That would be cool, we could probably get 117 to let us make a section.

[FtK Shadow]

Lets do it. I feel like making some new mods and skins

1 Q. when ever i try to open up the map file i go to my comp. then right click on halo, then i pick explore right,then it should be in the cabfiles and it not but the maps show when im not on the program itself is it like that?that means i cant mod the map with no file.how do i fix this?

[Jay]

No the maps are wherever you installed Halo to. Most likely it's in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\Maps.
