I have s hortcut to halo to use console and when i play from that it either freezez or get game exerption(spelling?) but when i play the normal halo wothout console or devmode it plays fine.

Any help please?

Halo PC, or Halo Custom Edition. Halo PC does not have a -console -devmode command line argument. If it is Halo custom edition, make sure the shortcut target is "%programfiles%\microsoft games\halo custom edition\halo.exe" -console -devmode

---OR---

Download a devmode trainer of the site. Here is E3p0's 1.09 devmode trainer: http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=5073

still not working :(

That app doesn't work for 1.09, and -console -devmode works just fine, I use it all the time.

Then you are doing it wrong.

(include the quotes ")

For 32 bit systems
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe" -console -screenshot -devmode

for 64bit systems
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe" -console -screenshot -devmode

There never was any myth, it's just nice to be able to take screenshots without the prtscrn/paint thing.

Only if you want screenshots. If you don't want screenshots you don't need it. The command line I gave enables the most common items people will use. You can use any of the command line commands by themself or in combination depending on what you are trying to accomplish

For a full list of the command line options see:

That just but a dib into your clipboard. If you use the -screenshot command line argument then the game writes a *.tga file directly to your hard drive in the \screenshots folder when you press the [prntscrn] key.

It should have been "That just puts a dib into your clipboard" A dib is a device-independent-bitmap.

Create another shortcut of your Halo Custom Edition. Which by default should be found here: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition. And then just do what you did on your original shortcut: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloce.exe" -console -devmode

We can't exactly tell. What version of CE are you running?

I got it all figured out, but plese assist the other person that still needs help.

Jus download the devmode app for 1.09....
