FIX THIS UPLOADING ISSUE

It's amazing how long one can leave a wiki up with a mod database especially when no one can upload decently large (20 MB or so) files! Fix this as soon as you read this. The issue I am guessing likely has to do with this. This isn't the first time I alerted you of this issue by the way, more like the third in the span of several months.

-Nil

Yep, that had something to do with it, but the main issue was issues between an extension and PHP 5.3.0, which I couldn't upgrade to until I removed the conflicting wiki extension. But I didn't realize that was the issue, so I did a reinstall from scratch and moved the HDM info to the new installation. It all works correctly now. :D

Uploading pictures don't work for some reason for me? - A I D 19:10, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

What does it do, what actually happens?
--UNSC 20:14, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
Starwars.jpg, Instinction.jpg, Instinction2.png, Instinction1.jpg, Instinction2.jpg, they all have issues uploading because they can't view thumbnails at all, im wondering whether the uploader doesn't work or if the image type is wrong (i usually use jpg/jpeg file extension when uploading screenshots and it works just fine) - A I D 03:46, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
I reverted your permissions for AID to regular user. AIDS is back to only the modders group. With the AIDS account, you should be able to upload files. Try uploading the pictures now. If it still doesn't work, send me an email with one of those pictures attached. Email is sparky@halodemo.net. Thanks!
--UNSC 09:16, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
Im not sure if that fixed that, images still have thumbnail problems. However images that i uploaded before and now work when you go to the real image file instead of the thumbnail page, so im guessing there is some issue with the thumbnail. - A I D 14:00, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
I think i will just upload new pictures but put them in my sandbox so if you ever get to fix it they will be there. If possible could you add a functionality so you can link an image from "another site" instead of in the wiki directory like some forums do? because then i could reference the wikimedia cache of the image (that works) and still resize it to 256px. just an idea. - A I D 14:00, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
It looks like uploading works again, i will wait a while before i try to reupload the instinction and the star wars mods but right now it seems to work :) - A I D 14:26, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
Please read

I'm using Safari. It won't allow me to type anything in the search field to the left on certain pages (like this one).

Discussion

Does anyone know how to make the biped a brute without having the map crash whenever someone dies? 

                    Halo + Map w/out killing = :(

thnx-a vehicle

Well, it's probably due to a lack of animations for a dying brute. This is best discussed at MGM rather than my user page ;).
--UNSC 21:47, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

I can't help but think that this page is really illegal.

-Nil

Probably true, but so is modding and reverse-engineering software, isn't it? I know we've had this discussion several times, I'm just being corny. I understand and thank you for pointing this out. At this point, I'm not sure that the page is actually being used. It will eventually become popular, so I'll have to consider more thoroughly the presence of that one file. My main justification is for easy-of-use (letting people download everything pre-setup in one file) and for survival of the content published. Files have a tendency to disappear as web servers come and go and free hosts prune uploaded files. Dead links = lost history!
--UNSC 18:41, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Fortune and Stealth failed on uploading mods correctly. Well, for Fortune's case, he isn't in the modders group and he linked to a page that linked to a mediafire page, which is wrong.... Anyway, I suggest not allowing people to edit the mod database page (and perhaps others) unless they are in the modders user group. Also, Fortune has two usernames or something, for some reason.

-Nil

ehhh... how to delete files? lol uploaded bad image (wanted a smaller one...) but i dinna know how to delete it lol

Wikis don't really support deleting files; just upload a revised version. If you really need a file deleted completely, let me know and I'll do it.... I just did it ;P
ty! lol.... ~xxx~

Hey Sparky. Uploading files all of a sudden stopped working for me. After it finished processing the file, it does not do anything, and does not display the "are you sure you want to save this file since it is over this file size" anymore. -NIl

Yeah that's been happening to me too. I'm looking into it. I removed ImageMagik, but that shouldn't have affected it. I'll check the wiki settings and do some testing.--UNSC 03:55, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
It's working again, and I didn't change anything ;) --UNSC 04:44, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm getting a similar issue again. Check my PM on MGM. -Nil


hi sparky. i am using a mac and i was wondering if you could tell me how to export models into blender or google sketchup, edit them, and then import them back into halo demo.
thanks --ninosmr
Hi, Ninosmr! There are several ways to do this. The most straightforward method that you can do all by yourself involves using DemoHack, HMT, OBJConverter, and your modeling program of choice.
First, download DemoHack, HaloMappingTools, OBJConverter, and your favorite modeling program, such as Blender, from the Tools page. Second, convert the map file you are using to a Full-Header version using DemoHack. Third, open it with HMT and non-recursively export the mod2 you want. The rest is explained in the ReadMe file that comes with OBJConverter.
If you want to use other models not included in the game, like if you want to import a different type of scenery model, you should export a similar type of object (in this example, another scenery mod2) and go through the process with DemoHack, HMT and OBJConverter. Once the model is inside your modeling program, import the new OBJ file you have downloaded from the internet or created yourself. Recreate any markers that the other object had, if they were imported into the modeling program. Markers are usually small spheres or cubes and their names probably begin with the pound symbol, "#", although this may just be unique to the Tool program syntax used by Halo CE... anyway, after the new model is imported, touch it up however you like and use that new model instead of the one you exported from HMT. Remember the need for triangulation; ask on the MGM forum about this if you're not sure. There are tutorials in Fonzie's Mod Pack (on the tools page) that will also assist you.
Have fun, and I look forward to seeing what you do with this ;)

Post your HDM sub-domain and E-mail requests here

I uh.... Tokage is.... <insert Tokage's request plead here>. There we go. :P --Tokage

What do you want the subdomain and e-mail addresses to be? I'm guessing:

tokage.halodemo.net / tokage.halodemomods.com and tokage@halodemo.net / tokage@halodemomods.com
...but let me know for sure.

I like the halodemomods.com ones :P

K, guys, Ive FINALLY finished my Internal Combustion Mod (Before it was called Anti-Grav Flashlight mod) So, sparky, If you send me a PM at MGM, Ill give you the link! -Mike7766

How do you upload mods??? -Stealth

  • 1. Login
  • 2. Click on "Upload File" in the toolbox menu at the left side. You can upload files once you are member of the HDM modders group.
  • 3. Select the file from your HD using the upload form and click the button to start the upload. It will look like the page is loading while the file is being uploaded. Wait for it to finish.
  • 4. Copy the file page's link starting with "File:" and go to the Mod Database. There, find the mod that alphabetically comes before your mod and click on "edit" next to that previous entry.
  • 5. Using the same format of that previous entry, add another entry just below for your mod. You can upload a screenshot and add the resized image like has been done with other mods with previews. Let me know if you have any more questions :D
-UNSC
Thanks! -Stealth

So what happened to Monomans account in HDM? I always see the page empty lol. -Stealth

He's probably busy doing other important things :P --UNSC
haha so thats why his disscusion page has nothing -Stealth

Um.... can you give me a sub-domain sparky? Stealth

Hi it's WIL KinG thanks for letting me join the modders group but I don't quite understand steps 4 and 5 on uploading mods. Can someone explain it to me?

Sure! Look at the top of your browser, where you type in URL addresses. Copy the very end of it, which should be just the name of the file, such as "File:My_Cool_Mod.zip". Now go to the Mod Database and find the category for your mod (single player, multiplayer, etc.). Within that category, find where your mod should fit alphabetically. Now in order to add your mod, you need to click the "Edit" link to the right of the entry that comes just before where your mod should go.
Now you're at the edit page. Look at the format used for that previous entry, and add yours after the entry that you see in the text field. Don't change the entry you see there! (If it helps, you can start a new line, select all, and option-drag the previous entry to duplicate it below.) Paste your mod's filename into the title, like the previous entry. You can also upload a screenshot and add and resize it in your entry like other mod entries have. Basically, use the previous entry as a template, but make sure you're adding your entry at the end of what you see in the input box, otherwise you'll be overwriting a previous mod entry.

Hi, I'm AuzzieLee, I would like to show the rest of the world my skills. My maps always have something from Custom Edition because I believe that that adds to the general gaming experience of the Halo saga. Also, none of my maps are CSS.

I have been modding halo demo for a while and would like to show people what if got. Most of my mods are CSS, so people see the changes. My best mod is Atomic Monkeys. It is a massive mod that changes all of the weapons accept the flame thrower. I also have the great idea of uploading halo full version maps to the database. Please add me to the modders group.

Aloha sparky, after a year or two of playing with eschaton and "fonzie's modding pack", I got around to downloading maps off this site, and i was inspired by "MGM's weaponry collab" and many other bodacious mods to make my own.

Galaxy wars windows compatibale

Hey, is there a way u can make galaxy wars compatibale w/windows? - A I D 19:40, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

That's a great idea, I'll keep it in mind. I am planning on developing it with CE first, then converting to demo and working from there. However, making a Halo Trial version seems possible.

Mac vs PC

Is there a way for me to convert halo PC mods to Mac, because when I tried my mod on a mac there was an exception data. thx - A I D 23:30, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Yes, if you have Halo Full's map files. The tools you would use are on the tools page here, either Queen Anne's Revenge or Pearl.
--UNSC 22:35, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
ok thx. Also, is there a way to swap CE BSP with Estachon without converting the CE map? - A I D 22:42, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
I don't know; you can try it! Altimit01 would know more about that - contact him at MGM.

The Pearl Converter for PC is, well, kind of broken. It only works for maps that are not hevaliy modded on Halo PC, and doesn't work at all for CE maps. For my mods, it says the header is in trial format already. Is there another way to convert to mac? - A I D 15:09, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Chat Enabled?

Hey Sparky, I am having trouble enabling chat in my mods. Any Idea how to fix this? I use default game type, slayer and CTF. When I press 'Y' (or 'T' or 'H' for talking to all or to vehicles), the chat bar opens, but i am unable to chat there is just a dim bar at the bottom where i am supposed to enter my chat. I looked in Eschaton for Input Device Defaults, but those are unchanged. I just need help to enable the mods, thx. - A I D 19:52, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Is this not possible? b/c it worked before with some mods... - A I D 21:39, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
nvm it fixed itself apparently :D - A I D 22:30, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
Ok I found out why it does this. When you have a firewall that blocks any outgoing or incoming packets and you are not a admin some computers block the chat packets since they were set up to do that :P shouldn't happen on anyone else's computer though :) - A I D 15:50, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Scenario problem

I am having trouble using your scenario pack. I am trying to replace the scenario in a bloodgulch map i rebuilt with the no-ai scenario. I used SCNR SWAP from halomodding, and it said the sbsp was different from the two maps by one. They are both bloodgulch bsp, Im not sure what is wrong. - A I D 22:00, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

About the sbsp, I don't think I used a bloodgulch sbsp for that map, so it's not really the same. About the SCNR SWAP tool, would you mind uploading it here to the tools page so that I can check it out, too? Thanks.

HALO CE?

wats up with the halo ce installer how do i get it to wirk on my mac?

Unfortunatley, Halo CE is not supported by Mac, just PC. Whenever Gearbox gets to making a CE port for Mac, it will be supported, but as of right now it is not. You can still rip CE content or edit CE maps using tools on the Tools section. - A I D 15:37, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
If you decide to use CE content in your maps, please get permission from the content creators before publishing your map with their content. If you can't get in touch with them, fine. If the content was published in a map, ask the map maker, but if they were published as tags alone, then you can be sure it's ok to use the tags. Also, remember to give credit to all your contributors within an accompanying readme file or wherever you publish your mod. The mod's description on the Mod Database page is an appropriate place to list contributors. Thanks! --UNSC 23:02, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
