No. He just released all his info to the public so others can help.

Yeah your pretty much right when I compared the h2v and h2x versions of coag I found that one of the rsrc blocks within the raw data is in a different format or generated another way.

i haven't compared the maps because i don't have halo 2 vista but on the earlier posts someone posted exactly what tag it was that halo xbox doesn't have.

There are a few tags that have PC only fields in them, so thats whats probably messing it up

Ok that makes sense your most likely right.

Edit:

I think I found the problem I'm pretty sure its with the raw data. The H2v raw(type 1) only has 9 rsrc blocks while h2x raw has 11 rsrc blocks.

there you go its in the raw data if we added those extra 2 rsrc blocks then we could play on the map problem is you have to find exactly what ones arn't on xbox then add them

tomorow Im going to work on a conversion for a fun Vista map, then IF it works its going to be posted for the public, so lets hope it works

Ok I'll try and help a little because this is inportent!

Id love to see a h2v to h2x converter or vice versa relesed Id make me happy as hell.

To beable to play my work on xbox could be fantastic!

Im a h2v multi/envroment/artest btw.

Anyway Im no expert but I had a couple idias you might be able to try

I to have done mods and thangs with h2x.

Anyway maby you need to use the shared.map's bsp

insted of another map's like lockout.

The tut I saw sead make new cunk in the bsp meta and null out the old

bsp of the shared map wich happens to be a box.

Another thang that might be wrong is scenary maby it caused the map to go to the black screen ? mb.

I to got the blackscreen wen I tryed to mod beavercreek with midship

scenary using entity & H2G + H2CORE I had the most amasing mod but

the map failed to load up compleatly. I saw my gun as soon as the map

loads and frezz'es with a black tint

I can tell from your post you are getting the same erorr and I know it

probly realy bugs you becuz you probly spent a long time fixing the thang

only to have it turn out not working & being a useless file like my mod

Well I hope you find the problum causeing the erorr if so Id love to know

how you did it.?

I ben playing halo sence day1 of the halo1xbox relese I still play

halo2xbox and the new h2vista on my new pc hit me up anytime if you

ever find a fix or even just to chat.

Sory I couldent contribute more info on the matter but im mostly in to

making maps from scrach modling & texturing buy hand. The good old

hek & H2ek moding waze. h2x is sorta frustrating to mod wen I can

make so much more progress useing other tools to make maps from

scrach.

Well good luck and keep moding bro!

...whoa.

Not necessarily, there's many reasons a map might go into black screen. Yours was more likely caused by the applications you decided to use.

Why work on converting bsps when you can simply work on a map editor? Yeah, I'm dreaming.

I know absolutely nothing about H2Vista, and the arrival of it really upsets me, because Halo 2 was supposed to be exclusive to the Xbox. Same thing happened to the original Halo.

Show us where bungie said that Halo 2 was ALWAYS going to be exclusive to the Xbox. And Halo 1 was NEVER going to be exclusive to the Xbox, gets your facts straight before you talk.

QFT
Halo was originaly Machintosh not xbox.
things like these are only going to be exclusive for a certain ammount of time like in a few years time halo3 will be out on pc and so would halo wars expand and improve is the way to go.

Hi jeremy900 & SPARTAN-OMEGA, could you please refrain from posting in this thread, as there is nothing in your posts that is worthy of contributing to this thread, you both have no idea how anything works, especially concerning the halo map file formats, Prey has such a larger knowledge of the format over you guys its unbelievable.

thx.

Also watch that mouth jeremy900, it has nothing to do with being European..

sorry, but it does kinda piss me off that he talks shit and bashes me and i dont even get a rebuttal. w/e sorry bout the Euro comment.
Censors are there for a reason. Don't bypass 'em. -shadowkhas

Jeremy900 and SPARTAN-OMEGA do what you want... no one is stopping you, just stop posting your info you think it useful in this thread, it does not help others.

And stop telling people that have much much more knowledge over you dumb asses.

I cleaned up the topic..

No more useless comments, your going to do something, great, try it first, before you spam up this topic, and then notice it ends up not working.

If it works, post because it may be useful information.

7 pages of garbage...

Please only post relevant information.

I appreaciate it -DeToX- and i'm sure some other members do too.

any new info from anybody?

I'm going to take a guess and say that this will never be finnished/released

So had this been called off now that Halo 3 has been released?

I hope not.
