View Full Version : Modding Meelee (extending distance) - Snowcast

Hey so I'm new to modding Halo CE maps.
I'm running a Zombie server and I've found a great map (Snowcast) but it has Halo1 weapons which have terrible meelees.
So I need one of two things for it to work (preferably number 2):
1) Extend the meelee distance - but I can't find which program would do this?
2) Import Halo2/3 weapons (or just import the weapons from CMT Snow Grove) - IDK what program does this either..
Can someone do this real quick? Or can someone tell me how I can do this if nobody else wants to?
Could someone help me at all on this?
I know you probably get bugged with modding questions all the time, so I do appreciate anyone who's willing to help me out.
Thanks

Well I don't think it's possible to change the weapons or melees without compiling a new map. So, everyone would have to download the zombie version of the map. If I got it right you're not wanting to do that?

Definitely willing to do that. Not the best option, but it'll work xD

I think you can do that with some modding tools like Eschaton or one of them idk.

You could use modding tools, but that would require everyone who enters the server to have that modding tool as well. It wouldn't work too well :\

The most practical solution is if you create a zombies-specific map that everyone plays on.

Yeah creating a whole new map (a modified version of snowcast) is fine, most of the playerbase are willing to go download the map.

not so sure about CE but in PC that's definitely not the case unless your doing huge bsp switches or importing lots of stuff. basic changes like weapon damage/range/speed can just be on the server.
aar, i'm not crazy about using mod tools but for something as minute as this change isn't going to get downloads so it's a better option than compiling a new map.
E: oh shit op is different now. k cool.

because snow grove was, as i understand, a good map for zombies. they want the tagset from that map to attempt to recreate that experience on a new map.

Chris (High Tide (http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=4668)) is actually working on a zombie specific map right now with a couple other mappers.

It was pretty good until the admin left and everyone (me) starting being a douche.

Errr..so does that mean it's not going to happen?
If the CMT weapon tags can't be transferred can someone at least put some decent halo 2 or halo 3 weapons on snowcast?

Every time I tried playing in your zombie server I was met with douche baggery, stupidity and out right un-fun gameplay.
I love Snowcast, I played it a lot with the Realworld CE players. Don't taint it with that horrid zombie gametype.
