H2VEK Hack Progress

[MetKiller Joe]

Credits go to Patrickssj6 for being the first to create the method, which I followed with success.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

It has the device machine, vehicle, and model selections.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Credit goes to Patrickssj6 for the actual method and the "vehicle" string. I did the model and device_machine strings.

As I would assume, one needs to hack tool.exe. I'm going to try, but, probably, it will fall on another person that is much more skilled than myself to pull that one off.

[jahrain]

What did you do?

[Patrickssj6]

Well this only modifies the dialog.

ResHack the H2.dll in the Halo 2 Editor folder and it should say something somewhere.

Credit goes to Limited who told me to look inside the .dll

XD

[MetKiller Joe]

Yeah, very simple hack. But, eh, effective.

[jahrain]

At least now we know the file extensions.

[Patrickssj6]

At least now we know the file extensions.
Actually....no

You have to add them manually not unlock them.:rolleyes:

[adumass]

Does this actually work can you open/edit vehicle tags?

[SMASH]

Considering we don't have a vehicle tag to work with, that cannot be decided.

[Choking Victim]

so is this merely eye candy or does it actually open the files?

[SMASH]

I don't know, we have to wait, and be patient.

[Patrickssj6]

Eye candy.

I tried to crack the error after that but with no success right now.

I cracked the first one but then this came up:

I didn't really try though.

And SMASH .vehicle tags do exist....for every single vehicle

[Masterz1337]

H2ek comes with around 8 vehicle tags. The vehicle tags are pretty different than what you have seen. How about a pic of the vehicle tag guys?

[jahrain]

I think it just allows the program to see the tags if they exist to open it. If Pi didn't remove the code that reads those tag formats from Guerrilla. There is a standing chance we may be able to edit those tags, once it is enabled to create new versions of those tags. Tobad we don't have a tag decompiler yet. Steelix, where art thou?

Read closer it's "Eye candy."

It doesn't work.

That's what I'm wondering.

[Masterz1337]

All the code to make tags readable is in the h2ek. Steelix is gone, don't expect any new h2tc. H2 maps don't even require you to have the full tagset btw, if something has a ref that isnt present in the tagset, it loads it from the shared.map and if its not in shared, it gets nulled (see the disintergrator item collection)

How are you so sure of this?

[Masterz1337]

I'm special.

[jahrain]

Great, we are getting nowhere.

Ugh, again.

WTF AM I DOIN?

Pi freaking rocks, the code wasn't removed, so the community can still do amazing things.

[MasterChief2829]

I'm glad I can't buy H2V yet. I can't help but laugh. People were expecting a much better map editing experience and what you get is worse. :rolleyes:

[Kornman00]

Awesome @ Lightning

!!!

How'd you do that? Does this mean custom weapons and crap? Can you release that version of guerrilla? Or is there more work to do?

[Kornman00]

You can't do custom object models no, and no it won't be made public. Theres always more work to be done.

[Neuro Guro]

You can't do custom object models no

No, not yet, but eventually (possably mbmb)?

[SMASH]

Mmmm... so you have work in tool to do before it's useful in Guerrilla.

I heard that they couldn't find the code for tool's other conversions.

[Kornman00]

No, not yet, but eventually (possably mbmb)?
As far as tool is concerned you'll have to ask for a piece of Pi.

Ony fragments of the object model import class for tool still exists (probably due to relations to the structure format). I'm almost positive that the developers will see things our way and push for at least custom object models. With the way things turned out with H2V, whos to say they weren't rushed?

After all, what is MS going to want worked on more, the actual game or the retail tools for the user base to use FOR the game? You should let time take its course first before jumping to conclusions

[jahrain]

If tool won't do object models, once the structure of object model tags is found, it should be possible to make an external object model compiler at least, perhaps even animations.

[klange]

Sounds feasible.

[jahrain]

I know its possible with gbxmodel tags. Back when I was working on getting models to rig with LODs, before I attempted to have the rigging data injected into the JMS files, I actually made a gbxmodel compiler that compiled the gbxmodel with lods with the rigging data. I never finished it because the other way was simpler.

[Kornman00]

Problem is, its not just a render model that you'll need to generate. It is highly unlikely you guys will get complete custom models in game ever, especially with the use of havok which is require for both the physics and collision.

[Limited]

:lol: thx for credit pat :)

[jahrain]

I have been digging though the hex of the .model tags. I found out it was quite obvious that the render data is stored in different tags, but I can't figure out exactly what the model tags is used for. So far I see that it references the render model tags, collision tags, shaders and physics/physics model tags. I guess they made references to those tags all in one tag instead of part of in other tags such as weapons/vehicles/bipeds like in halo 1 tags. But what is the tbfd, jmad and udlg? I guess compilers would also need to be written for physics models, collision models as well.

[Kornman00]

I lol'd

[Limited]

Right now you can only edit/save tags. This isnt really a prob as you can open an exisitng tag, edit it and tag it as some thing else, but would be nice if we could do what kornman did and add it to new tags list.

Korn, when you added it to new tags list, did it actually work or was it just on the list and not load a new tag?

[jahrain]

Oh lol, jmad is animation tags. What a funky tag id.

[Kornman00]

Its fully lifted from any restrictions that were once placed on it.

[Limited]

Its fully lifted from any restrictions that were once placed on it.
So it works :O

Was it like I said in PM?? :D:D

[Kornman00]

yes

no

[Limited]

Hmm, I know it has to do with ID 432 but I cant find the reference to 432 to change it :P

[Kornman00]

It doesn't have anything to do with that resource. Do I have to explain 'no' any further?

[Limited]

:( Bah, it was worth a try.

[TheGhost]

Korn, so the code to compile models in Tool has been removed?

There are ways of creating model tags that some consider to be... unnatural.

[bleach]

that just reminded me of SW III. so we can't mod or create any custom weapons, vehicles, skins, (but we can create maps...just only with H2 weapons), lock tags, extract tags??? H2EK seems to be limited, but much easier to use than HEK, HEK has more freedom of modding, and with Kornman ( + Rep), HEK+ was a great tool. ;) I'm encouraging you to finish hacking H2EK! Lol.

[Patrickssj6]

Lightning was it you who did it or Korn?

And BTW Dasm works on Guerilla if done right.I can't figure out how IDA works (yet)

[Limited]

You sure Dasm works?

[Kornman00]

I gave it to lightning as hes a fellow H2CEer and because I expect him to bring back a certain map that we shall just refer to as jubjub because it sounds funny >=0

[SMASH]

Lightning was it you who did it or Korn?

And BTW Dasm works on Guerilla if done right.I can't figure out how IDA works (yet)

IDA's pretty easy, that's what I use. I'm getting better at reading and understanding the code, what I'm still clueless on is editting it to shape my will.

[p0lar_bear]

I have been digging though the hex of the .model tags. I found out it was quite obvious that the render data is stored in different tags, but I can't figure out exactly what the model tags is used for.http://h2ek.com/wiki/index.php?title=Model


But what is the tbfd, jmad and udlg?
I know udlg is Unit Dialogue. tbfd... I don't know.

[MetKiller Joe]

I was just going through the Guerrilla string list, and I saw that there is no "device_machine". Is it in another name or am I just looking in the wrong places?

BTW, since I the map I'm working on needs a "device_machine" sort of thing, that is why I am searching.

[Roostervier]

I don't know, but when I opened it in IDA Pro (which I don't really have any idea on how to use yet) I found this:
http://img262.imageshack.us/img262/4895/orlydevicemachineka8.jpg

[Patrickssj6]

Did you open Guerilla?

My IDA is broken then somehow.

[MetKiller Joe]

The funny thing is I did that exact same thing.

What options did you use to disassemble it (in the PE wizard)?

I think I'm missing something here because if I was doing the right thing I wouldn't be missing on all of the <device_<something>> tags.

[Roostervier]

Yeah, that is h2guerilla. Are you using Pro or something else(trial)?

[edit] I opened a PE Executable. I looked at strings, made them order alphabetically. Keep in mind that once you hit uppercase "D's" that you have to keep going down, they are listed much further down, in fact.

[MetKiller Joe]

Yeah, that is h2guerilla. Are you using Pro or something else(trial)?

Yeah, I'm using the trial. I don't think that is why because it seems the only thing the trial has the full version doesn't is a usage timer (eg it shuts the program off after a certain no. of minutes).

Edit: Ok, I'm going to try that.

[MetKiller Joe]

In response to the post below this one:

I checked resources because I think we need every piece data we can get to analyze. So, I'll uncheck resources and see what I get.

[Roostervier]

I edited the post, and I think I checked to use both DLL and analysis. I didn't load the resources, though. I honestly don't remember the rest, lol. If I ever figure out how to edit the damn thing, I'll post what I get (I've got no knowledge whatsoever on decompiling and reverse engineering programs).

[demonmaster3k]

well, it deserves hacking (like what happened with the orignal hek) gg to all of you
and i hope you progress on your efforts

just one question? how do you use h2ek? it crashes everytime i open it up

we might not have to wait for prom after all

btw, does h2v have to be activated to use h2ek? something's telling me that i should sta with HEK and not H2EK for the moment...

[Roostervier]

No, Halo 2 doesn't, but you do need MainMenu.map and Shared.map to open any tags. Otherwise, all it takes are the right .dlls. I dunno, I don't use that dumb thing to open up my Guerilla, I jsut use the h2Guerilla exe file.

[MetKiller Joe]

Yeah, I dunno. Reinstall. Works fine for me on Vista as well. Try just running guerrilla, tool, and sapien from there separate programs and not the launcher.

*gets idea*

Once finals are over, I might make a simpler launcher, but now, I barely have time to do this stuff.

[demonmaster3k]

but i have mainmenu and shared.map in the H2EK folder, i tried running the executables straight from the folder with admin access, and i have all the dlls that it came installed with (it should work, but it's not)... this really bites

i'll try re-installing i'll holla back if i get any results

had a friend that had the game and i asked to borrow it, saying that if i liked it i'll get my own on friday... that's the not-activated part. now just testing to see if everything works before i blow $50 to find out it doesn't but ty for you time

[MetKiller Joe]

but i have mainmenu and shared.map in the H2EK folder, and i have all the dlls that it came installed with (it should work, but it's not)... this really bites

Try reinstalling it. Also, did you install Halo 2 or just its map editor?

[demonmaster3k]

installed everything, my comp is entry-level with a 3.0 vista scale (yea planning upgrades once i get a job) i did the EK first, the DED and then the game (only because the installation crashed because i didn't have the right services enabled, but that fixed).

yea, the game runs fine. ded can't run w/o activation and the EK won't even open (which really pisses me off, because i wanted to transition my stuff from ce after i bought the game from the store)

[JDMFSeanP]

You guys really should talk to the high up H2X modders.

[Patrickssj6]

Try to run the exe not via the crappy 5-min-made launcher

Nox(Nitrousoxide) don't tell me you made that thing.

[Nick]

When I saw the quality of that launcher's UI, I lol'd.

Nick

[Patrickssj6]

When I saw the quality of that launcher's UI, I lol'd.

Nick

Same here.

"And now as an added Bonus for our special developers we include the App Launcher scripted in VB.NET at NO EXTRA COST!"

PS:Other restriction may apply like not being able to open 90% of the tags.

[Cortexian]

Why do they even bother including an EULA for this stuff when the community is going to rip the program apart because it's incomplete, lmao.

I'm just looking forward to GETTING my copy on the 31st...

[jahrain]

Well I started work on a model compiler since currently tool can't do it. http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/7786/screeniebi9.jpg

Can't test any of the models I compiled since I don't have a hacked guerrilla that can open them. Right now it just reads JMS files exported from blitzkrieg and compiles it into a format that seems identical to the render_model tags. But I have idea yet...

[the1]

well im going to do the only sensible thing i can do
point and laugh at the h2ek
and wait for prom
*points and laughs at h2vek and waits for prom*

[SMASH]

I hope lightning and Korn find it in their heart to help us by giving you the new hacked guerrilla.

[Limited]

Huh kornman? :P

[MetKiller Joe]

I hope lightning and Korn find it in their heart to help us by giving you the new hacked guerrilla.
They will not. It would be in a sense illegal because this time we BOUGHT the H2EK (unlike HEK were it was a free download).

If anything, a program might be released to patch the programs, MIGHT.

[SMASH]

http://sa.tweek.us/emots/images/emot-effort.gif

I'm sorry korn, dude. I'm just really excited for custom stuff.
