Mod H3 Films W/O Host

So through many trial and error steps, I have found out that you can mod halo 3 films without being host. I was told by many 7sinners that you must be host to mod the film or else it wont work...but you can do it without host. Its really not worth it in the end unless you really want to do it. To do this you must have :

1. Xsata, Transfer Cable, etc.
2. Halo Tool Box V2
3. Rehasher/ Resginer (Concept works)

I discovered this by doing a 1v1 with my friend and i asked him to save the film and downloaded it from him ( Since he was host ) And I opened it up in Mirage. And i modded the names, service tags, armor, etc. but Mirage wont fully mod it. so after you mod it in mirage, save it. then open it up on Hex editor. Unicode search your gamertag. Then replace your gamertag with the requested gamertag. Example: you changed the gamertag to Walshy, well below that, it will show your gamertag, so change that to Walshy because mirage will only change your name once. so even though you think you changed it, you didnt. Save it. Rehash, Resign. Now there are 2 slight bugs to doing this. 1. is that when u are host and mod it ppl can download it off your fileshare and watch it anytime, while using this method only the modder and whoever is in the party can see it modded. if you try to upload it and ppl download it it will show up regular to them, everything unmodded. 2. is that unlike the mod where as you are host, you cant see the rank. like general, brigadier, etc. when u use this method you can see a rank but not a gamercard. so makes it look somewhat legit. also the mark iv method applies here, NO MARK IV!!! u will not show up on mirage. my next goal is to try and mod a matchmaking game. the 1v1 film i modded was 13 mins long and 1.8mb so the less than 1mb rule doesnt take place here. the only reason i cant mod matchmaking games is just that fact that its really hard to find out who is host and to get the saved film from them.

There was never a 1mb rule, most people just didn't have a rehasher that could do it before...

Film modding annoys me because i have never been able to mod films with more than 3 people in it.

I wanted to get a whole game of 16 people and give everyone flaming recon but it never worked.

ive tried it but its almost impossible to do. u have to pull host or have ur friend pull host and you download it from him then u can mod with 16 ppl. the highest ive done is 6 ppl. just try and get lucky with it and pull host or u can always bridge for host.

After you mod it, all you need to do is get on halo 3 and change the name of the film and save it. Then you can put it on your fileshare and everyone that DL's it will see the mod.

Isn't there a certain time limit though? I thought the time limit was like 1:00 and your film had to be under 1:00 long for the mod to work.

sweet. now is there was only a way to change the gamertag when you view that profile and it shows ur gamertag to the actual one. so if u click on neighbor's gamertag on the modded film it shows neighbors actual gamertag.
