Blu, Visual Scenery Mover, Profane & Menu Menu Menu

Post by Prey »

EDIT: Yeah.. I'm back, for now at least... seems I have more time on my hands then i first thought ;x

Due to things happening in the real world (>_>) i will no longer be able to visit these forums or be active in the modding of Halo2 anymore, my time doesnt allow it. Some of you know me, many of you dont; thats fine - it was still gr8 :P (For those of you looking at my join date and thinking wtf this guys only been with us for like 3 months, this is a third account of mine. My first was made over 2 years ago)

Anyway during my time 'in the scene' i developed a couple of applications that sadly i never had the time to complete, i now no longer have use for them, so perhaps you will.

Blu
Purpose: Allows you to edit the unicode of the 8 different languages within the .map file.
Defining Feature: Allows for longer unicode strings :P
Unfinished: I never had the time to finish mapping out all of the 'image codes' - many are done, many are not :-/

Visual Scenery Mover
Purpose: Loads the bsp of a map using directx so it can be visually edited.
Defining Feature: Allows you to select and move bsp scenery :P
Unfinished: The bsp scenery coll is not re-calculated.. also it is a real shitty source code IMO, just copied and pasted loads out of entity until it worked :?

Profane
Purpose: A full map editor much like ADI or Entity.
Defining Features: Read the .htm file found in the build folder for info on these. Apart from that, it has a cexy UI :P
Unfinished: Ugh too much.

Menu Menu Menu
Comments: Ive already released this HERE. The source code of this application i will also be giving.

The End..
I wont be active for the best part of 2 years, perhaps evermore. I hope to maybe look in just to see your progress on Halo3, perhaps even join in - but thats a long way off, and ill cross that bridge when i come to it. Downloads attached, have fun >_>

Note: The Menu Menu Menu Application and Source Code included in the following attachments are, as of 10/09/07, outdated. Get the latest from the original post, HERE.

Sad to see you go. It's ashame. Though life is of course much much more important than modding. Hopefully we'll see you back sometime!

The apps sound pretty sweet. Sad to see someone go, but the real world > halo world. I doubt I will even play Halo 3 so I won't be seeing you around in 2 years. I think I remember your first or second accounts. :wink: Anyways, nice apps.

Peace, StalkingGrunt911

Nice apps, shame you had to leave them partly unfinished, hopefully someone will carry these on.. but i doubt it due to the lack of programmers at this site..

Good bye. Its sad to have those leave the community

Also when I open it(Profane) it says "The type initializer for 'Dark.Globals' threw an exception."
Same with closing it, opening a map. So I can't even see the sexy UI =(.

Well I didst know you but I really appreciated the work that you put into "menu menu menu".

Sad to see you going...(I can't harras you for your deep knowledge of halo 2 modding, lol...)

I am convinced though that you will be back for halo 3 modding, lol.

Anyways; hope your RL experience goes well till we see you here again!

I'm sorry I couldn't help you more than I did. I just didn't have the time either. I hope you have a lot of fun in the real world.

Have you tried entity's controls? I'm pretty sure they are the same if not maybe up and down are on the Q line
