Proof-of-concept: Edit Halo maps while playing them
I recommend playing the youtube video in 720p.
Anyway, this tool can modify the map and (optionally) Halo while it's running. This is a proof-of-concept and the program is far from complete, plus there's no telling if I'd actually keep this feature.

This is the sickness. I think you should see if you can keep it : ). I could possibly help in the future with getting proper authentication to write in the process, time may tell.. In the mean time, use a self-signed certificate.
I am no longer active to Halo or MGM, and don't guarantee a response on the forums or through email.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!

Is that possible in a multiplayer game? My brain says no, but my heart tells me it would be amazing.
Also would be awesome for campaign modifying, imagine changing the AI tactics on the fly...

It is if all the editors synchronize, making the same edits at the same time.Smythe wrote:Is that possible in a multiplayer game? My brain says no, but my heart tells me it would be amazing.
We'd basically work around syncing issues by communicating extra information outside the game's netcode.

Just for CSS changes then, like weapon damage.WaeV wrote:It is if all the editors synchronize, making the same edits at the same time.Smythe wrote:Is that possible in a multiplayer game? My brain says no, but my heart tells me it would be amazing.

If you are the host, CSS changes should work as normal, yeah.

I'm giggling to myself about making the damage of something Negative so it heals you, people start to use it, then suddenly changing it so it instantly kills you.
Host advantage taken to a whole new level.

The program will have to send information on edits to the clients of a server and then on the side of the clients it will edit at the same time.WaeV wrote:It is if all the editors synchronize, making the same edits at the same time.Smythe wrote:Is that possible in a multiplayer game?

Just the question is: is it possible without having the clients need the same program.

Re: Proof-of-concept: Edit Halo maps while playing them
In that case, we just have to rely on Halo's netcode and traditional CSS-type edits. There's no way to magically have the other clients know what to do -- we need to communicate with them somehow.rEsTnPeAcEz wrote:Is it possible without having the clients need the same program.
In theory, people interested in collaborative edits would all just download the same app.
