see for your self its in halo ce utillities.i thought this site hated ripping.

WTF. This spells doom.
WHY DENNIS WHYYYYY!!?!?!??!?!?!?

Like it's ever going to be removed either.
I thought we barely tolerated ripping let alone put the tools right out there for people to use.

blame stupid pepsi for releasing the god damn app


sphinx probably uploaded

EL is a program for blind ripping, works for me but for others.... I'm not so sure.

Haha. I'm sorry but... lol.

its not a map unprotecter you idiots, its meant for making the map convertable to h1 PC and h1 for the mac by removing protection but not sorting anything out.

aw man, looks like you all are gonna have to deal with it.

It seems we have a contradicting sentence here.

Lol! 032's right though, it was made for converting maps to mac.

EDIT: and sphinx doesn't use eternal lightning, just saying.

The time for revolution has come!

I really hope Dennis makes an exception to his "No deleting uploaded files" rule....

Either that, or someone better come up with a new way of protecting things, ASAP.

^ This.

A protecteor that rewrites your own computers base code and etermally bans the machine from ever playing halo

So this can't be used to unprotect maps for editing or ripping whatsoever?

Already did the Needler, Plasma rifle, SMG and shotgun.
It only took about an hour. I did it for the 3P LODs and models.

T'was done with that eternal lighting thing.

well. I think Jesse makes his/our point

It makes me feel like crap, but I think I'm good friends enough with CAD that he wouldn't mind.

The thing is that most people won't even be able to use this anyway, so you guys might be worrying about nothing lol.

theres away to make this app not work on your map that everyone except me and one other person has not forgotten.. ill tell in pm's to certain people not gnade or people i dont trust

*begins screaming* THE END IS NEAR!!!! REPENT! REPENT!!

Wow, I just deiced to do a test on CMT snowgrove to see if it even worked. It did, It worked. (don't yell at me I already have the tags from CMT snowtorn grove, I also give credit to who made the tags.)

Do tell.

Yes, please, I will need this for Treacherous when I am finished.

FTFY

There's still .ztpt protection and also the protection used on Revelation.

Making the file read only and protected by a password?
It's not a hard thing to get around for some people but others would be completely baffled.
You could add a billion random empty tags into the map, that'd really confuse them.

this, I honestly wish CE didn't have protection, it would actually remove a lot of the hatred in the community, no one would need to worry about leakers and rippers because there'd be no protection, and there are a lot of people who are really good with stuff like scripting but suck at making custom content, and having access to the rest of what they need would really help people's maps reach their full potential. Therefore I DON'T think this should be removed, but that's my opinion.

EDIT: Oh, and by the by, that protection method that makes it so you can't open maps in hek, it makes this app exception, so that still works

sorry to burst your bubble but now im not releasing my latest ones which feature a ranger elite and a lot more. /end

Anyways, don't bother using this as it corrupts the tags,they may show up but they corrupt your tagset.

Reasons as to why ripping is fine and you shouldn't whine about it:
-It's a game

Simple as that. If someone doesn't like you ripping their stuff, too bad. Give them credit I suppose, but they need to cool off and realize it's not a big deal. I'd take it as a compliment that people want to use my work, not kill them for taking it >_>
