[Tag] Troop Warthog - Vehicle Collection File

This is a vehicle collection file to spawn a turretless warthog, aka the 'troop' warthog permutation. The troop permutation was left in by Bungie, and is similar to the gauss permutation, except that there are no menu items in the gametype settings to spawn one, it has no turret (No, you can't get into the back where the turret was), and it was never used in the final game.
This file spawns the warthog in the troop permutation just like how the warthog_guass.vehicle_collection file spawns it in the gauss permutation.
The troop hog differs from the regular warthog in that it obviously has no turret, and as it weighs less, goes slightly faster. (Random Trivia: Gauss hog weighs the most and therefore is the slowest.)
This vehicle is really good for racing levels - it has no turret, so you can be sure an idiot won't use it to gun down others, and as I said, it goes a bit faster.
Instructions:
Put the warthog_troop.vehicle_collection file inside your tags folder -> multiplayer -> single_vehicles.
Set the vehicle onto a level like you would any other vehicle, and use the warthog_troop file.
When you play the game, make sure to leave the primary (or secondary) light vehicle settings to Map Default. Otherwise it'll be overridden by any choices you set.
This was a really simple edit; all I did was modify the warthog_gauss.vehicle_collection file and change the permutation sid in the file from 'gauss' to 'troop' with a hex editor. The reason I'm posting this is because most people never seemed to know there was troop permutation.

Wow! Nice work Downloading!
Re: [Tag] Troop Warthog - Vehicle Collection File
Like you said, this is great for racetrack maps where a gun-less hog might be the best option. It would have been great if there were a few extra seats in the back, but of course we can't do that yet with the limited tools we have. We'll just have to wait for that. I never knew there was a troop permutation, +rep :)

This will be great for my next/first map.
Re: [Tag] Troop Warthog - Vehicle Collection File
Wow. Thanks! I could definitely use this for my first map I am making.:)
Re: [Tag] Troop Warthog - Vehicle Collection File
Just what I needed. I wanted hogs on one side of a map I'm working on but the turret gave them to much power.

Too bad they removed the race variant from Halo 2 ;d
Re: [Tag] Troop Warthog - Vehicle Collection File
Is there any other types of hog in the game too? Also no race? Thats messed up :(
