WowLoader Source Code Discussion

Sorry if this has been posted earlier but in version 0.2 there was a problem with campaign, after level 12 (when loading level "gravemind" ) the game asks for an original halo 2 dvd and u cannot play further... (u can use the map renaming but that's not playing actually) its not only me that had this problem, it appears that many people have been having this trouble....
And it would be very appreciated if the LAN was working, cuz when u try to create a LAN game happens nothing, when pressing create new game happens nothing....
thats all problems i have found so far......
I dont know if they have been solved in version 0.3 so can you please post an answer...

Can you please search the thread?

[Ancient]

Can you please answer, cuz that thing

Basically - you copy all the map files with the *.dtz extension from your halo 2 dvd to a folder on your hard drive. Use a program - ungzip.exe to extract them. program only extracts one at a time. Rename files back to the *.map extension. Copy files to the map folder in the Halo 2 directory. Thats it.

Does nothing, its basically the same thing the game does when installing.... and yes i tried that if u ask and it didnt work..... my maps had .map extension from the beginning.
And if u have nothing to say dont say it....

Please make it work after level 12 or post more detailed description on how to do play further....

...did you even TRY what was suggested?

I don't know if this would work. Might do. Rename the later levels to the names of the earlier levels and you might be able to play them (by going into the program files and renaming the .map files to names of eariler levels).

Yes i did, so i said in the post, i dropped the maps from cd to my hdd and used that prog (ungzip) to unrar maps and i got names like this: 00a_introduction.map_ungzip.dtz Then i changed the extension to map and it became 00a_introduction.map_ungzip.map when is started the game and tryed to load levels nothing happened (probably cuz the game couldnt find the maps becuz of their different names) then i renamed them to 00a_introduction.map and started the game and the problem still existed "please insert ure original halo 2 cd"
I seriously dont understand how that was supposed to help cuz i basically didnt change anything....
Maybe im missing something.... ?
