Some Modding Questions

Post by ThePolice » Mon Apr 13, 2015 9:02 pm

So I just had a few questions and if you could answer them thanks in advance.

1. Is it possible to easily increase the size of say the plasma grenade? I remember playing a large weapons mod along time ago and I can't find it anywhere.

2. Is it possible to make a biped ceiling, similar to the vehicle ceiling on bloodgulch.

3. Is it possible to make a movement penalty while holding the flag, without memory mods. There are some movement penalty floats in the weap tag but changing them doesn't seem to do anything.

1. That's only doable for weapons and equipment. You can change the size of the plasma grenade equipment, but not the projectile itself.

2. Not nicely without a HaloMD plugin, unfortunately. I guess you could fill the ceiling with scenery.

3. I guess you could have the flag emit an effect that stuns the holder, or you could write an MD plugin that slows the holder if he/she is carrying the flag. That's all I could think of.

Ok so I think it will be fine if the plasma grenade projectile can't be changed, I just need the grenade to be bigger as it is sitting there on the ground. So how would I go about doing this?

So I found out that I could use Dead hamsters collision editor and I was able to make a large invisible plane to use for the ceiling.

So I was experimenting with the effects in the flag weap tag and I was able to have a stunning effect when you pick it up. I can make the stun long but if the person drops the flag they will still be stuned. So how can I make an effect that will keep triggering while carrying it? Also what are MD plugins? Are they server scripts or something?

MD plugins (or extensions) are memory mods that load when Halo starts up, or when a certain mod is being played.
I am no longer active to Halo or MGM, and don't guarantee a response on the forums or through email. I will however linger around the discord room for general chatting. It's been fun!
