But the problem is that this tag didnt come with halo2_masterchief\fp\fp rigged.gbxmodel and i really want this biped.

Tough luck. Get brand new globals, and you should be able to open the scenario. Once you can, if you want the tags, go to Halomaps, and find the Halo 2 Cyborg tags. Download those. Then, in guerilla, set the player biped to the downloaded tags, and the fp hands to the downloaded tags.

Ok i found out that i have these files(halo2_masterchief\cborg_mp.biped and the gbx model). and each time i open sapien it says same problem.
What should i do?
Edited by notaru on Apr 5, 2009 at 09:22 AM

Are they in the right folders? cyborg_mp.biped should be in the folder tags\characters\halo2_masterchief\cyborg_mp.biped. You're probably missing other tags. Get new globals, and completely ignore the halo 2 cyborg UNTIL you can open the scenario.

where do i get new globals?
And is that cyborg_mp.biped a folder or a file?
Edited by notaru on Apr 5, 2009 at 02:29 PM

cyborg_mp.biped is a file. And to get new globals, download Halo Editing Kit Plus, and extract beavercreek.map. When you open it, go to the folder globals. Take the globals.globals file out, put it on the extraction cue, and click the little gear thing. Check the "Overwrite existing files" box, click the huge Use Registry button, and click OK. Then, uncheck the "Save extracted tags list" box, and click Start.

but do i extract it to (haloce directory/maps)?
Edited by notaru on Apr 5, 2009 at 05:25 PM

u quite simply press the "start" button in hek+.

it's below the extraction queue!
hek+ automatically creates folders for the tags u extract, or in your case, overwrites a file in a specific folder.

Edited by biglou117 on Apr 5, 2009 at 07:18 PM

Well i cant do that because my HEK+ has a problem that an exception could not be handled. And I downloaded it like twice.

Oh, I see. Are you on Windows 7 by any chance? Right click the shortcut to HEK+, or the exe itself, and click Properties. Then, under the compatibility tab, click the checkbox next to "Run in Windows XP SP3 Compatibility"

nope im not on windows 7. But thanks to your globals idea i started the sapien on tutorial it worked but the i tried every map like bloodgulch.scenario etc.
It says:

04.05.09 23:09:46 failed to load structure bsp 'levels\test\bloodgulch\bloodgulch'
And it says the same thing on every other level. what should I do now?

Yea, try extracting all the tags. Open Bloodgulch.map using HEK+, and follow the instructions that I posted. Check the compatibility mode box anyway.

So i do the same thing that i did with battle creek on blood gulch?
Or should i put the structure _bsp where it should be?
