Frozen's Halo Server Help Thread - A compilation of questions

[frozen]

Hello!
I am searching for third person view for HALO CE with aim fix
Does it exist?

Thanks:)

[supersniper]

there's MANY third person mods and camera mods and fov mods. use google.

[Amit]

This is the version I used to use: http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=2645

I'm pretty sure the aim fix is there. When you're looking for a Halo utility, go to halomaps.org. The site is current and will most likely have everything you need. Just make sure to find the latest version. If you know the name of the author try searching his name rather than wading through hundreds of utilities looking for it.

[frozen]

i use the same..with this one u cant get in head if your aim is located there, u understand what i talking about
sorry for bad english by the way..
i have seen another one for HALO PC and this one is awesome, do HALO CE have the same trird person?

Thanks:)

[supersniper]

The one you're talking about was made by BB and nah... he never converted it to PC,
try using skys the limit, or i think Vivid Abstractions has one? i'm not entirely sure.

[frozen]

I cheked vivid, there is no anything
and tryed skys the limit, this one is only for 1.08..i am playing on 1.00:P
thanks anyway:)

[Cortexian]

There are no third person apps with proper HUD/aim fixes. Last I heard it was some kind of engine limitation because the aiming and bullet vectors would need to be modified on the biped model/animation level or something?

[frozen]

if i ll pay..can someone make it for me?:)

[chrisk123999]

One of bitterbanana's old 3rd person ones had a aim fix.

http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=1565

[frozen]

Yea Chris i know about it, but this one don't support Halo CE
but anyway thanks for reply:)

[Patrickssj6]

Ask Skyline to convert it to 1.00

[supersniper]

lol skyline, well isn't he the app maker lately :P

[chrisk123999]

I posted it in response to Freelancer who said it was impossible.

[frozen]

I asked Skyline, ll wait for reply
Why Freelancer said it WAS impassible..is it possible now, it was impossible when he tried to do that??;D
ok but i still hope:P

[chrisk123999]

It's clearly possible, because it's been done already. For earlier versions of Halo PC however.

[Cortexian]

That aim fix isn't a proper aim fix, a proper aim fix isn't possible without a custom map.

[frozen]

HI!:)
My problem is - i can't join modacity servers which is running on v 1.00
it say invalid cd key..i know one way how to fix it, to delete something in regedit, but i tried and dont want to repeat it
cuz after that appeared another problem:)
actually i join server, but forget to install sdk and quit game. after that it started to say: invalid cd key:P
HELP ME!:p

[frozen]

oh yea i forget to say that i still can join other servers:P

[frozen]

somehow i join them..maybe just LAG;)

[frozen]

Good evening!
Today i instaled fresh copy of windows on my pc..and i dont really remember what is resposible for displaing ping in server list/
Thanks:)

[Limited]

Install the latest version (1.09).

[frozen]

latest version is installed, and one more i was running server already and ping was displayed;)

[Limited]

In your other thread you said you played on 1.0

[Limited]

lol skyline, well isn't he the app maker lately :P
Hes venturing into other aspects of app development.

We won't make apps for 1.0, it is an unsupported version.

[frozen]

its no cuz of this shit, i am sure;)

[Limited]

Why don't you play 1.09? Something to hide?

[frozen]

no nothing to hide,1.09 suck..all my friends play on version 1.00;)

[frozen]

I solved this problem, if u have the same problem:
ping is not appear next to server name - write me pm

[Cortexian]

Please post the solution here so that others may benefit.

[supersniper]

eh it was more of a general statement sir limited.

[Cloud]

I mean does it matter... My servers don't display ping just and just see if ya lag lol. Also if you do have a solution post it why are you making it seem so secrete... You ask everyone here at this nice forum then hide the solution..

[=sw=warlord]

Hes venturing into other aspects of app development.

We won't make apps for 1.0, it is an unsupported version.

Halo PC is a unsupported game.

[Kornman00]

They're not making apps for 1.0, ergo, it's an unsupported version :realsmug:.

[Cloud]

supersniper i know has them i got one from him because it had a buncha camera stuff.

[frozen]

Can i upload banned on server without closing server?
thanks:iamafag:

[frozen]

What this action mean?
this one is taken from my server report:)

[Patrickssj6]

I think Skyline needs more support, or does she

[king_nothing_]

The server has to be restarted for the new banlist to take effect.

[Limited]

Halo PC is a unsupported game.
Please read my post's context, I am talking about Skyline and I. I clearly reference Skyline and and I also mention 'we'. That should be a clear indication that I am not talking about the game.

It is common knowledge that Halo PC is unsupported. It might not however, be common knowledge that Skyline and I do not support 1.0 for a number of various reasons.

What pat?

[supersniper]

[supersniper]

[NullZero]

[frozen]

supersniper

[Kornman00]

:lolugh:

[supersniper]

well pat said she first, so i continued.

[Cortexian]

Well you both fail.

[Patrickssj6]

Well you both fail.
I reported you...because actually you fail :V

[Cloud]

Whos skyline? O.o

and i mean simple things like third person can be made in like an hour. Also with all the stuff already made :D

[Limited]

Whos skyline? O.o

What do you mean by made? If your referring to actual programming of the app then yes your right. The 'making' of it is easy. Yet programming it is only one part of the lengthy process.

[supersniper]

cloud he's talking about fixing the aim when in third person.

most third person apps are just changing the in a vehicle value from 0 to 1 when not in a vehicle. simple really. but third person has always had a problem since halo 1. the aimer was always a little to high. whether you were in a turret in a hog or on the base. it never "aimed" properly. You'd always have to aim a little lower to hit your target. same in halo 2 PC

and to fix the aim you'd have to find the projectile of EACH weapon then adjust it accordingly.

now creating that in less than an hour... hell I couldn't do that.

[Cloud]

Mr. Bagz could xD but I'm not going to ask him to waste his time he's messing with black ops but we can work on something tonight I'm off work 2maro

[Limited]

No he could not. I dont even know who Mr Bagz is and that is why I know he cant do it. Theorizing the problem and solution is easy, practically implementing the solution is the hard part.

Shame bitter next told anyone how he found stuff. Maybe someone can contact Racer?

[frozen]

ok
i am using 1.07 server and i patch it with rec0 patcher
i run it on 1.00 version:)

[frozen]

sure i cant tell all of u guys:D my reason - i was running ESET dont remember what version, but this one include
personal firewall..and this thing block server to show ping:) if u have same problem but u dont have eset try to search for personal firewall in your antivirus software.
but its not only reason, i know guy..he have same problem he tryed to do same, but it didnt help. he sad its cuz router or something;)

[Cortexian]

Not necessarily a complete solution, some routers block the ping in a very similar way so disabling your firewall or adding an exception doesn't always work. I've had my servers running on a completely open and unsecured connection before and it still didn't display a ping.

[Cortexian]

Nothing in Rec0's Devicator should do that...

[Cortexian]

Cloud, you realize that Limited and Skyline have been programming apps for Halo PC and CE for many years right? I'm going to go out on a limb here and say at least 6 years, they're probably some of the best programers that are currently still active in the Halo PC/CE community. There's also Kornman00 of course, but he has been focused on Open Sauce for many years now.

I've also been an active member of the community for at least 8 years and I've never heard of this Mr Bagz. He sounds like a script kiddie that has been exaggerating his actual skill level.

[frozen]

yea i cheked one more time to be sure that it was not weed;D
so..this one is rare thing but exist
it goes like this
GRIEF ADDED( REMOVED) player( here is current player number) "player name" DEMERITIS 1( OR 0)

[frozen]

I have question exactly about gameplay.
i have set on my dedicated server oddball game on map bloodgulch( server version 1.07, patched by rec0 patcher, and changed version to 1.00), and ball did not appear on this map.wheretosearch for it, or it is profile parametrs crap
can it be at all??:)
thanks

[Skyline]

There are two possible solutions I can see, 1) change the direction of the camera to match where the projectile will hit (I believe this is what bitter's camera fix did) or 2) change the biped aim to match where the camera is looking at, although there would be no way to fix movement to match the camera even though the data exchanged between server and client is still two floats, movement is still limited to 9 directions. So essentially when you're pressing forward you would almost always be moving on a slight angle relative to where your actually looking to go.

As far as I know changing projectile direction wouldn't work unless you're talking about making the program on the server ? I don't see that being practical though.

[supersniper]

he's talking about Pingo...
and Pingo is actually very knowledgeable take my word for it.

[Sever]

The problem is you're doing it on Blood Gulch. Try doing it on a GOOD map, m'kay?

[Mr Buckshot]

The problem is you're doing it on Blood Gulch. Try doing it on a GOOD map, m'kay?

blasphemy, death to infidels who insult the God of stock Halo maps!

[ThePlague]

Try it on Damnation!

[frozen]

wtf
its impossible?

[Pooky]

wtf
its impossible?

I don't know what's wrong on your end, but I've had Oddball on Gulch with 16 balls and they all appeared.











Also, Gulch is bad and if you like it you're probably bad too.

[frozen]

ok thanks i ll try to change settings:)

[frozen]

maybe someone else have this grief added, removed
cuz i start to carry about it..can this command somehow make lags on server
when i star my server today in the mornig it was okay, then i time to time came back, and there become more laggers, maybe cuz of this grief??
thanks:)

[StankBacon]

doesn't the log say that when you tk someone?

[Cortexian]

Yeah I think you're right Bacon, it's something to do with the default server team killing. A grief is likely a team kill, to many griefs and you get banned.

Frozen, you can check this by joining your server and team killing someone.

[Amit]

Didn't Freelancer say something about the no all-caps policy (even for thread titles) already?

EDIT: lololo, just saw the infraction.

[Limited]

he's talking about Pingo...
and Pingo is actually very knowledgeable take my word for it.
You mean the guy that tried to update the aimbot code, not knowing wtf he was doing? Pingo changed his name eh? Probably annoyed too many people.

[supersniper]

no he didn't change his name lol. cloud just called him that.

[frozen]

yea u was right it is tk, i find one guy in bans( dont remember that i banned enyone in that day)
and checked him in log file, he got 4 grief:)LOL

[sleepy1212]

oddball can also be played "odd man out" style where there is no ball, just everyone trying to kill the same guy.

[supersniper]

don't they call that "tag" ?

[frozen]

hi!
another question from me, i think it will be last..answer please
rec0 sapp..want to know where got registered textbans and ip bans???

[frozen]

no i am talking exactly about oddball where is ball, becose in player list there is time showed

[frozen]

i made game with one ball it was really hard to do
cuz in CE u cant make it at all u will have problems with scores and time, but if u ll make it in combat evolved
u ll need to test it a lot of times on CE, cuz when u replace this thing from combat evolved to CE there are little bit different settings:P
sorry for broken english

[Sean Aero]

Perhaps it's better you just make one topic and call it "Some questions about using rec0 sapp on my server" and list all your questions there?
Because I don't think most people around here appreciate it when the forum is spammed with topics from one single user which all come down to the same thing.

[Sean Aero]

Much appreciation towards the moderator, admin or forerunner that made it blend.

[Amit]

Much appreciation towards the moderator, admin or forerunner that made it blend.

lol Forerunner. It was Freelancer who merged them :beast: yeah, I know. He does the small work around here now.

[frozen]

Thanks a lot for place on this beautiful forum for me:)
mess in here now..forget about all that questions i ask before;D
i want to know now how works IP bans and text bans commands in rec0 sapp:P where this commands get registered, cuz they erased after i close server
kinda stupid:P

[Cortexian]

IP bans and text bans are handled by SAPP, not Rec0.

[frozen]

i ll try to ask again..
how works SAPP commands ipban and textban..i mean when u ban someone, where this info get registered

[Cortexian]

In the "server root\sapp" is created when running SAPP usually IIRC. It should be in there, if not then it's stored in memory.

[Dwight]

Gandanur is currently the only Server app which stores IP (range) bans as far as I'm aware (not supporting text-banning yet).

[frozen]

can someone from visitors on mine server use that simple hack as everyone change team..i just remember this one
from halo trial, and is it simple to hack server if it is running on windows xp?
thanks:)

[chrisk123999]

It is a halo trial hack only. It was patched in Halo PC and Halo CE.

[frozen]

can i hack server which is running on windows xp/vista or 7?
