Spida, read the tut again, you don't edit the binary with hexeditor, you edit the binary in some other program (like text edit or your brain) then you can use the calculator on HMT to convert that into hex.

I have a question of my own. Now I know how to turn things on and off, but how do I change things like vehicle speed and jump height?

jump height and vehicle speeds are incredibly easy. There both floats.
For vehicle speed, open up the vehi.xml plugin and scroll down to find this:

<value>
<type>float</type>
<offset>0x2F8</offset>
<name>Max Forward Speed</name>
</value>

open HMT and go to the vehi tag. select the warthog (either one). On the right hand side there should be a thing saying "meta". Copy that number

press apple+h, and HMT's hex calculator pops up. press apple+v in the first box, and go back to this:

<value>
<type>float</type>
<offset>0x2F8</offset>
<name>Max Forward Speed</name>
</value>

Right where it says "<offset>0x2F8</offset>" copy the 2F8 thats there and paste it in the second box in HMT's calculator.

Press the addition sign and it gives you a number. Thats the address of the warthogs max forward speed. Copy that number and open up HexEditor.

In HexEditor check the two boxes saying "swapped" and "allow editing"

Next, look over on the left hand side where it says "selection" and below it is a box. Paste that address you got from the calculator in that box. Hit Return.

Ok, so now your at your destination. Select the four bytes and in the "View/Edit as.." section theres a box that says 'flt" thats where the number you are looking for is going to be. Now, just simply edit it to a higher number. Lets say...making it 100000 would make the hog very fast, obviously. Try it out

Hope this helped. If it didnt, go read sword's Hex For Dummies topic

Wow thanks GZ, that is a lot easier than I expected.

THe problem is you can't make it 1000000.....I think A bunny said that, for instance stun only goes to 7F FF FF 7F or something like that. I have found that vehicle speeds only go to like 10 (as a float value). For instance, when I change the field of view, it will only go to FF FF FF 6F (1.584563155837957 E+29 decimal). The highest a float can go to is FF FF FF FF which is (16^8)-1. No something is wrong with that because that number is far below the highest field of view. Can anyone correct me?

According to him, it should be threaded as 0 because the computer can't read it. Maybe that's possible for a projectile, but I don't think it's possible for like Warthog speed.

What happened to Bunny? I liked his method of creating really cool weapons, like laser swords. If you look at my mods, you can see some of the twisted "genius" of my weapon modding (WotW mod, random death, un-named, the rod in Halo: CRE).

Bunny was awesome. I'll bet he got more involved in programming, and he will be hiding for a long time (as he has).

He's probably hiding and while doing so, unlocking the mysteries of the universe. :shock:

i already found them.
ok here's the facts.
we didn really land on the moon, cause it was actually really made of cheese.
we are really in a globe.
a globe like a snow globe.
an attraction.
people look in and laugh.
god is actually just the janitor that visits every now and again to clean the air vents in our 'globe'.
the world is really flat. the mirrors the janitor installed play tricks on us.
