Is it possible with HEK or other programs to extract scripts from maps? If so, how and what program?

I want to learn more about scripting, i've done some very small scripts - just wondering if possible to extract and see scripts so I can teach myself how by seeing how others have done it.

Edit: HEK not KEK, typo

Zteam released the campaign scripts on Halomaps. You could look through those if you'd like.

HEK - and Kornman v2 is just guerilla . . . does it extract scripts? (don't think so)

You mean the ones I wrote part of?

i remember back in my day we didnt have any fancy script extraction

if you wanted to make a combination of coldsnap and hugeass, you had to retype all the scripts yourself. and yes. it was hell.

but zteam has succesfuly removed all possible script functions you see in halo from the campaigns. you can rebuild other functions off of those ones.
but in terms of an application removing scripts from a map, as far as i know, current halo mapping technology does not permit this.

however

sometimes you can extract a scenario from a map, and, assuming you have not opened this scennario in either sapien or geurilla, you can open the scenerio file itself with notepad and sometimes the scripts will show up. this doesnt usually give you all of them though, just a few functions.

i do hope this helps!

You mentioned coldsnap and hugeass, would anyone happen to know where I could get some of the scripts used in coldsnap particularly the ones used for the longsword?

Sonic- We STILL don't have any script extraction :) Even though I'm trying to write an external script compiler

omg dwood back from the dead :D

also what sonic said is true i can view scripts like he said

Really...

Just a couple of tips:
When modding a map in Sapien, if you don't compile it and just save your changes, when you build your cache file in Tool, the original scripts should all remain intact. If you open the map in Guerilla to look at settings, etc., but just exit and don't save it, the original scripts should also remain intact. If you save the map when opened in Guerilla, all original scripts will be deleted.

I had to recreate all of the original scripts from scratch in extinction_ai, but on coldsnapwar and snowtorngrove_ai I kept them all intact.


This is all I could get from the original coldsnap scripts as found in the scenario file:

I starting to put some of the scripts together, but became impatient...I'll have to look and see if I correctly structured that particular part of the file.
