So with kornman's post, does this mean this app may possiblry get sound and bsp extraction?

It has batch extraction... But what about batch(tag) injection, I'm a very experienced Halo 2 modder, and I like creating SP to MP mods, and on Halo 3 that would ve insane

like kornman said, his library processes the maps in a different way to the one i use. with the two different systems, I'm not sure if I could combine them to work together. and he also said the bsp extraction doesn't convert to any standard forms like .obj, and I don't have the skill to do that.


it doesn't extract as meta, so it wouldn't be able to inject it again. also, this app for using halo3 content in haloCE, not for modding halo3

lol it depends on your view. I will be releasing a free version which will be pretty much everything in the screenshots... BUT - if I do manage to get sound/animation extraction, then it will probably have a price of about $10 depending (sound might be free depending on the source)

If he doesn't release it, we can still rip as we have been doing for 3 years now...

And edited it or not. He is SUPPORTING extraction, but it is not his code, he cannot sell it it is illegal and just wrong.


EDIT:

^His point the model and bitmaps must be free. If he adds more bitmaps sounds/anims/bsp.. then yes he can charge. If it is HIS code, I know there is other code out there that can do it, hopefully he will be loyal and do it himself, though.

afaik it's not illegal, but like i said, it depends on where it comes from

Awesome work Gravemind, looking forward to the full version. I still find uses for H2V Gravemind 1.5, so more tools from you the better.


Hey, I fail at reading, can this extract Halo 4 BSPs?!?! jk ;)

I'm sure someone will just "release" the paid version anyway.
just putting that out there.

Long story short, nobody ever gained respect from a community by making them pay for something.

So Gravemind is Grimdoomer (or whatever is was)?

Oh I thought so, guess I could be confusing two people.

Sounds shouldn't be hard.
It uses XMA but the problem is getting that to something usable.
The xbox sdk has a tool for that but I don't think you are legally allowed to include it. That and the format is proprietary as far as I know. I never looked that much into sounds.

im not the person who created gravemind for halo2, i have no affiliation with it

i have no idea who that is

leaking isnt very respectful either. i have no job, no money, no bank account and my family is broke. if theres any chance i can make money, ill try it. im not being greedy here - imo $10 is cheap for people who actually have the money to spend. also, licensing (attempts to) prevent leaks

of the extracted models? its the same as xTraction and Alteration - it uses the EMF script (or export to obj)

i have a tool which is for converting xma to wav, but i dont have any xma's to test it with

Just saying sounds isn't worth $10

If your selling it for $10, I expect at least animations too, or something.. You cannot take credit for models and bitmaps...

Althoug if they were BSPs, I'd be willing to pay a chunk of $30-$50 or so...

Now you did it. No advertising for profit.
