Game Types

Hey, I'm pretty new to modding but I catch onto things pretty fast. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if there is a way to mod a map to have the default game as King of the Hill. That would be nice to know for an upcoming "Game-Map." Thanks Peoples.

Here you go.

THIS IS NOT MY TUT, THIS IS SYPERIUMS

Swapping Game Types
In this tut, we are going to play the game type Oddball in Halo Demo.

Open Halo Demo.

Go to multi-player, and which ever connection you want (LAN or Internet)

Click bloodgulch and click next.

Now, once at the Game Type select screen, just click on Slayer. Don't press continue just yet

No, hide or press Apple+F11, and go to your Home Folder.

Now, go to Documents/ Halo Demo/ saved/ playlists/ defualt_playlist/ and go to folder 27.

Copy that file that is called blam.lst and paste it into folder 26.

What you just did, is swaped the oddball game type with the slayer.

Now, go back to Halo Demo, click next, then, start game.

You should hear oddball upon start up.

Have fun.

To figure out what game types are what, go to what ever folder in that location I told you to go, and take that file "blam.lst" and open it in TextEdit. The very first words of the document should tell you what it is.

Hehe Fonzie the tut master.

Thanks , but what I meant was when you open the map, you literally start playing the default game King of the Hill. It would basically be a permanent place in the map.

It doesn't work like that, because the gametype is completely separate from the map.

Yeah, if people wanted to play King of The Hill, the host would have to host the gametype. *Fonzie's tut*

yeah... halo re-creates slayer and CTF gametypes at startup.

you need to do that process.

well, who knows if altimit knows why does this happen..?

and if there's a way to null it out?

anyone ever think of hex edit for this situation infact i think there is a way to hack the ui so that it defaults all gametypes and alows u to creat game types

if u know hex anyway and u know me i will look into it and keep everyone posted

and if i find something i will post a patch file

TaxiService · Post by **TaxiService** » Thu Dec 20, 2007 11:26 pm

well... i have yet a modded UI that allows me to create gametypes, but what we need is a ui that makes you start with.. let's say KOTH instead CTF.

or that can make you choose between more han CTF and slayer...
you know, like in full... that you can choose CLASSIC or DEFAULT gametypes...

that would be great ;P

It is possible to mod things such as weapons and vehicles spawned to change things as if it were a game-type, but everyone else is correct. the Game-type is separate from the mod/map.

I guess it is... But with enough hacking I'm sure the map could mess with the game itself.

Does anyone have a list of which number is for which gametype? The only list I knew of was on clanhalo, which seems to have disapeared.

Mac Hacker · Post by **Mac Hacker** » Fri Dec 21, 2007 1:03 pm

i posted tut that had them all

zapconquest · Post by **zapconquest** » Fri Dec 21, 2007 1:11 pm

Uhhhhhh you did? Where would that be, cause I searched but couldn't find it... I know I could just look at the first line in hex/text edit but I'd rather have a list.
