Extending the Life of Halo Modding

(You can always unhide ~/Library [use google], or use go to folder in Finder, or Terminal, the reason it is hidden is because why would the normal user want to go in there? Other than that, I don't know what they 'moved.'

I agree; I'm finding that between my new hardware and the OS, I'm enjoying myself. It's anything but like a PC.

Just a heads up, Nil wrote that, and I quoted it.

…lil' bump! For bumping's sake.

Yo.

The following executable contains both nil's key hack and a new modification that allows HD Intel to communicate with Gamespy's Halo Demo list.

This means:

• *This version registers as Halo Demo
  *It will load all available Halo Demo servers, the same way original Demo did

However:

• *Due to netcode differences, this version will be unable to join original demo servers
  *I am unsure if the servers created with this version appear in the server list

I am unsure if the servers created with this version appear in the server list

Tested this running two instances of Halo on my computer, I don't think they appear in the server list.

Requires more tests, two instances will not always operate as two computers would.

Let us test this. I have a bit of time, Ill leave the server up for 30 minutes on one of my desktops. its called Full game server testicle. Running original CTF for testing purposes. Can we still make our own servers instead of gamespy's?
No one is online so i'm taking it down. Tell me a good time before 12 pm (its almost 3 pm here)

I tested this.

The server does not show up on the gamespy list.
If I try to join my own game via Direct IP (as a second player), it gives me a "Your CD Key is Invalid" error.

[Mgalekgolo]

How about you look for the one I just put up? Name: Full test

[Sparky]

It's not there. see my edit ^

Even if you joined my game, it would not work because of CD key error.

But if you want to try:

join 72.90.182.81:2302

EDIT: You can join via Direct IP and it works. Mgalekgolo just joined my room.

[Mgalekgolo]

I didn't get the cd key error.
edit: Holy shit im playing on wizard. It works via direct IP.

[Sparky]

To summarize:

- You can't join your own game, no matter how it's hosted.
- Games don't show up in Gamespy lobby or LAN lobby.
- Other players can join your game only via Direct IP.

[Modzy]

Thanks for all the info. More needs to be done to remove Key checks before multiplayer can function.

[Sparky]

to clarify, you can't join a game that your computer is joined to already... invalid cd key.
