umm all ill get if i rip an protected map is a couple of bitmaps... not to helpful


and why not hmm?

lets see when rippers start back up the community will not release content.

the only way to kill a ripper is to starve them.
and that is why I shall not give the method the community will decrease the flow of content

A "couple of bitmaps" goes a long way. You want the gold pelican, which you can do essentially with just one bitmap. Once you have the gold colored pelican skin, just stick that into a shader, rereference the shader on the gbxmodel, and reference the new gbxmodel in the vehicle tag. That's it.

Also, you aren't entitled to all of CMT's tags. What they want released has been released, or will be released. If you want something, you could request it, but you should not demand it.

someone wanna post a pic of the gold peli? im to lazy to play spv1 again

Are you daft?

Because to me it seemed like you completely ignored the answer I gave you and presented an answer of your own that had no sense in any way.

Since you did this I am going to post a tutorial any retard can possibly follow.

1. Download this: http://www.mediafire.com/?nmxdeetdjzk
2. Open Halo Map Protector.exe
3. Click Load Map
4. Click on cmt_snow_grove.map
5. Click Protect Map
6. Enter a name not containing the two symbols before and after "protection"
7. Done. Extract with Hek Plus.

Now, for those actually wondering why I did this:

Since CMT has disbanded, there, at least to me, seems to be no problem doing something like this. Additionally, why would you want OLD tagsets, when CMT already released their almost full tagset from SPV2.

It bewilders me, but oh well.

... theres a easier way wich is my new method but um... lets say it extracts the hole tag and shader has the bitmaps in order! but im not saying how.

also the old tagset had the silenced sniper. thats the only thing i want lol.

This is the utmost stupidity I ever seen in one thread from one person. If you want a bitmap you could have use 3ds dx ripper to get a whole lot of bitmaps.

..

i did that with cod 4. but where does your bitmaps go spartan lol im a noob

It goes in a folder textures.

Dont discuss off topic stuff.

C:\Documents and Settings\USER\My Documents\3DReaperDX\Textures

Thank you. I want to look out the MPv1 HUD. Masters sent me bitmaps, but I suck terribly at Photoshop and all of that stuff and can't do it right. Just ask Veex!

Gamma the thing about the bitmaps... all the vehi and weap bitmaps are protected the unprotected ones are ones that come with the HEK also I am not the tags I am just asking for the encryption key.

also
Spartan I need the old tag sets cause I need the gold peli and a couple of teh guns


also
I don't have 3ds max... that is unless you wanna buy it for meh

also the halo map protector is useless sure i can sorta unprotect the maps BUT everything has the same name. therefor how in the world can I make everything work and find the tags I need hmm?

There IS NO encryption key for the maps, and CMT most likely doesn't have the old tagsets anymore. You are able to protect a map without an encryption key, fyi.

can't someone who knows how to rip just extract the spv1 tags, put them in a map and release them? There's no harm done and it will keep the rippers away!

and also I want the original apparition ssssoooooooooooooo dam bad! :p

yes but they used an encryption key

NO they didn't. Masters stated some time ago that they protected the maps WITHOUT an encryption key. You don't NEED to, and they DIDN'T.

I think what gammas tryin to say is no cmt did not use an encryption key youre wrong

thats odd... because when I went to unprotect the map it said invalid encryption key

Of course it said that.
There was no encryption key, so anything you try to enter as the encryption key will be wrong.
:\

Skidrow925, Gamma is right. There is NO encryption key. Why can't you just wait for all the other tags to get released. Besides, you're trying to get OLD tags.

because the old tags rock hard!!

like the apparition

ftfy

That completely defeated the purpose of fixing it. If your opinion is an argument to what he posted, just post it as an argument >>

...

[rant]when I tried to unencrypt the maps I DID'NT I repeat DIDN'T use a key I just clicked unprotect map and then it said the key is invalid

also the OLD tags are what I want cause I need the gold peli and the snipah and some other tags.[/rant]
sry about spelling

no one ever fixed the apparition, they just made the $hetty needler ghost which was so original it made me wanna vomit my internal organs

and yeah the rocket style pelis were pretty sexeh
Edited by Delicon20 on Apr 10, 2010 at 03:06 PM

I know and i freckin hate that thing.

I thought a couple improvements to the apparition and it'd be fine but they just cut it...

also the h2 style crewman were beast, and unlike h doans ripped ones their mouths moved

also the keyes with the blood shot green eyes was t3h best

intersting... im still trying to figure all the CMT tags that I got are

Obviously the tags arent going to come out with all their names correct and what not. You have to guess and check to find out what it is.

NO DIP SHERLOCK!

every freckin tag has the same freckin name!

ALSO NONE OF THE TAGS WORK RIGHT FOR EXAMPLE SAY I WANNA FIND THE SPLAZAH IF I DO FIND THE SPLAZAH'S WEAPON TAG I WON'T BE ABLE TO MAKE IT WORK BECAUSE I WON'T BE ABLE TO FIND THE TAGS IT NEEDS CAUSE WHILE RIPPING ALL THE TAGS OVERWRITE EACH OTHER ALSO I GOT THE BSP AND WHEN I FINALLY LOADED IT IN SAPIEN EVERYHING WAS MADE OUTTA METAL AND TEH BASSES HAD A MASSIVE LENS FLARE LIKE WHEN THE NUKE IN EXTINCTION GOES OFF AND YOU LOOK AT IT.


(Teh map I used was coagulation.)

let me know how that works out :p

I'm done helping you. I've told you everything you need to do and yet you continue to rage at me and others for no reason.

Just leave him be. If he doesn't want our help then so be it. We've told him how to do it, all he has to do is follow it.

Thank you codebrain

And that's supposed to dissuade future rippers. If you have no life, you could theoretically determine which tag is which, and then piece it all together.
