Hey,

Awesome mod, can't stop playing it. I was just wondering how you added the soccer ball. I've seen some vids and people have added soccer balls to other maps and stuff e.g. Coag. So I was just wondering how you got it and how to apply it.

Thank you
Max

1. Open up newmombasa.map in entity.
2. Navigate the obstacle tags (bloc) till you find the soccer ball.
3. On the right side check recursive and parsed.
4. Now hit save and save it to your desktop or in a folder you remember.
5. Open up your map you want to mod (coagulation).
6. Check recursive and parsed again. Now hit the Build button underneath that area.
7. Find the folder you saved the soccer ball in. Click the .info file.
8. Entity should now build the soccer ball into your map.

I don't have any maps here to help navigate you through the rest but follow along with this tutorial and it should guide you through the rest of the setup. Just remember, instead of making more wraiths like he did, just use the soccer ball.

You are very welcome. I would have written out the rest but I had no map editor/.map in front of me for reference.

You need to use Super PPF patcher. Dothalo only does normal PPF, this is an SPPF ;)

Mod for those who will use them correctly.

To play modded old maps, the best way is just to play Halo 2 off the HD.

And you need to rename the old map you're replacing when you put the modded one in, unless you added it to the mainmenu as something new.

If you are playing the game off the disc, then yes it's going to load the fresh map off the disc and not what's on your hardrive. Clear your cache partitions, put halo2 on your hdd and then ftp the map.

When you ftp to your xbox, there are what looks like folders, correct? Well there should be x,y, and z folders/partitions. Just delete everything that's in there. Thats deleting your cache.

If you want to put halo2 on your hdd follow this tutorial...

If that tutorial isn't indepth enough, there are literally atleast 30 different tutorials, all based around the same concept floating around the internet. Just google it, or search around the tutorials section a bit.

I bet the resigner you're using was meant for DLC ...

Just hit the "Sign" button in Entity, then FTP it over. It should work.

What's the exact name of the resigner you are using?

to use that signer you need to load a clean burial mounds map in the resigner copy the signature that appears then when you load your modded one put that signature in the empty bar then resign. i used to use that but its a total pain in the ars.

really id just search for encryptomatic signature it assigns a code so if you have h2 on your xbox the mainmenu will load it with the new signature, it think idk cause all my main menu's are modded.
