just throwing out an idea:

It would be extremely awesome if someone made a playable hunter mod for the halo demo. (or if someone could tell me that there already is one (FOR THE DEMO ONLY)).

i know theres one for the full pc game (but thats only on the level "truth and reconciliation"), so one for silent catographer would be pretty awesome, maybe even for blood gulch.

and another thing, could someone compile a list of good links for halo demo mods that allow you to play as a grunt, elite, jackal, marine, etc. on a mac.

if i get a good response, thanks a ton.

I could make a hunter mod for the silent cartographer....maby..
LE EDIT: Here it is. You have to make it on easy or you die in the beggining,
you cant hold any weapons, and, well, its kinda pointless....
Someone else can finish it if they want, just give me a little credit for making the original thing.

that'd be cool. thanks if you do.

also, i got the jackal mod, and when i played it on blood gulch, their was this weird flashing light thing eminating from the bunkers and various other points. this caused me to get killed like ten times. any input?

The only problem with other character mods is that, they are kinda pointless

oh i know, but it would still be kinda cool to play as someone other than the mc. hes great and all, but it gets boring.

HEY!! it finished downloading, and it pretty cool how they usually run from you, though i dont know if they do the same if you play as the chief. but yeah, it is kind of incomplete as it is, with no weapons or melee. but even if someone put those in, it would be weird as a hunter.

as i said in my other forum post, an over the shoulder angle would be better for all character mods, especially the hunter.

but thanks anyway, it was still awesome!!

Have you tried my Elite Special mod? Obviously not. And, in attempt on making a Play as a Hunter mod, you crash when you start walking.

Everyone who has tried has run into that problem Syp. Deox says it might be because it's too big or has to many parts or something. Doing it in SC is more then possible though.

Hunter? Is it the big Covenant guy with fuel rod-like gun and a shield?

do you guys mean that when a hunter has a weapon the computer crashes, or what exactly. im not too jive with the modding lingo, so if you could, explain that a little better. playing with the no weapons/abilities whatsoever hunter, though, it went on as normal, so shouldn't you just be able to add a fuel rod cannon to that model?

When the hunter respawns, it doesn't have the correct sounds so that doesn't help the situation, and also the Globals/foot aren't correct either. This is bassically telling the Hunter what he needs to act as. Also, the collision model isn't the best either, XD.

I'm goin' to figure it out, though. Trust me, :wink:.

Hunter's can't have any other weapon than the one attached to their arm. The Hunter basically is a weapon, in biped form. They usually cause any map that has them imported to crash, which I believe is because of the fact that their mod2 only has one level of detail. As soon as one spawns or moves or does anything requiring animation, the game will probably crash. That's why when you move in a "Play as a Hunter" map, the game crashes.

... And there you go. That answers your idea; It's not possible.

This topic is now over.
